ADELBERT HAY DEAD
The Eldest Son Of the Secretary Of
Stag Meets an Untimely End.
FELL FROM A THIRD STORY WINDOW
Secretary Hay Travelled from Washington
10 New Haven, Conn.,, to See His Dead
Son and Took to His Bed
with Grief.

New Haven, Conn.,, June 24.-Adel.
bert Stone Hay, former consul Of the
United States at Pretoria, South
Africa, and eldest son Of Secretary Of
State John Hay, fell from a window
in the third story of the New Haven
house in this city shortly before $3.50
o'clock yesterday morning and was in
stantly killed. The dead man was a
graduate Of Yale Of the class Of '9S
and his death occurred on the eve Of
the university commencement, which
brought him here Saturday and in
which, by virtue Of his class Office, the
young man would have been one of
the leaders.
The terrible tragedy has cast a
gloom over the whole city and will
undoubtedly be felt throughout the
day which heretofore has been so
brilliant and full of happiness for
Yale and her sons.
The full details Of the terrible ac-
cident will never be known. Mr.. Hay
had rooms at the New Haven house
for commencement week. 1t is gen.
orally supposed, however, that after
going to his room he went to the
window for air and, sitting on the
sill, he dozed off and, overbalancing,
fell to the pavement below-a fall of
fully 60 feet. The fall resulted in
instant death and within Is minutes
the body had been identified as that
of young Hay. How it all happened
became a matter of speculation on
the part Of the throng of curious
spectators who gathered and a SUBJ
