cere and deep sympathy
The first cablegram to be received
by Mrs Harrison came at $3.50 this
morning. 1t was from First Assistant
Secretary Jackson of the American en-
bassy at Berlin. Mr.. jackson received
his appointment to this pace from Gen.
Harrison during the latters incumbency
OF the White house. He is now the act
ing American charge daffaires at Ber-
lin. The message was an expression
of the deep grief Mr.. Jackson felt at
the loss of a personal friend.
The second cablegram came a few
minutes later from Addison c. Harris
of indianapolis, United States minister
to Austria.
A. L. Mason, a lawyer and personal
friend. in telling of his last call on
Gen. Harrison, few days before his
last illness, said today:
We conversed on a variety of sub
jects. I had just finished reading his
article on the Boer war, and rallied him
by saying that when he should go
abroad the next time he would not be
an acceptable guest at the English
court He answered with great quick
ness, i can go to see kruger He
talked for time about the Presbyte-
ran creed. He was the chairman of
the committee on revision. He took up
the Cuban question His point on this
was that we had placed ourselves in a
position before the world where our
sincerity in dealing with Cuba could
be justly questioned. He was empba-
sizing his former statement that the
moral law bound the honor of nations
as well as of individuals.
His reference to the Philippines and
Porto Rican matters expressed surprise
tnat the supreme court of the United
states had not yet handed down il
decision.
Later the conversation turned on
trusts. He said he had very definite
ideas on the regulation of trusts. and
believed that the problem was one
which was fairly within the reach of
legislation that would commend itsalf

he quoted at length from memory from
the articles of incorporat ton of the stool
