New Haven, Conn.,, June 25.-Adel-

United States at Pretoria, South Az
RIGA and eldest son of Secretary OF
State John Hay, fell window
in the third story of the New Haven
house in this city shortly before $3.50
o'clock Sunday morning and was in
stantly killed. The dead man was a
graduate of Yale, of the class of '98,
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 acct
dent will never be known. Mr.. Hay
had rooms at the New Haven house for
commencement week. 1t is generally
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 pave
ment below, 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

ADELBERT s. HAY.

Moseley, where the body of his son
lay, was stricken with physical col
lapse, was very much improved Mon
day morning. At nine o'clock he re-
ceived call from DR.. Gilbert, his
physician. The doctor found Col. Hay
so much better that he permitted
him to sit up, and, while directing
that he remain quietly in his room
for the day, expressed his belief that
he would be able to leave the city
Monday evening, if necessary.
Immediately after the departure of
the physician, Secretary Hay arose
and had breakfast brought to his
room.
1t is stated that no definite plans
for the funeral will be fixed upon
until the arrival of Mrs. Hay and her
daughter, who are expected soon
from Newbury, N. H., their summer
home. Meanwhile, however, arrange
ments are being made tentatively
for departure with the body later in

New York. June 25.-People in Lon
don, says the Tribune's London cor
respondent, are not unmindful of the
fact that during the early days of the
Boer war Adelbert Hay discharged
his honorable duties on behalf of the
British prisoners in Peoria with the
utmost tact and discretion. It is felt
in London that his tragic death
closes one of the most promising ca
rers in the American diplomatic serv-
ice. All the papers refer with en-
phasis to the debt Great Britain
owed the late Mr.. Hay for his many
kindly Offices.

it all happened became a matter OF
speculation on the part of the throng
of curious spectators who gathered,
and subject of mournful inquiry for
the class mates and friends of the
young man. Halfsa dozen physicians
who were hastily summoned were un--
able to do anything and the body
awaited it's disposition at the orders Of
the coroner's deputy, Medical Exam
liner Bartlett. That official pronounced
it case of accidental death and re-
ported to his superior. Coroner Mix.
Witnessed the Fall.
There was n solitary spectator to the
terrible tragedy, a laborer on the city
streets. At the hour mentioned the
workman saw the form of a man fall
ing through space. An instant later
there was 4 sickening thud and the
body lay directly in front of the main
hotel entrance. The Mortified laborer
rushed to the spot and his shouts
brought others. Theusual crowd gath
cred. In it were several belated Yale
graduates. They bent over the body.
One of them, Julian Mason, a son of the
late Edward G. Mason, of Chicago, and
classmate of young Hay, drew back,
and, horrcr-stricken, cried: my God!
it's Del Hay!" BY this time the hotel
clerk had reached the scene and made
the Identification complete. The body
was clad in pajamas. On the window
sill of the room occupied by young
Hay was found a partly consumed ciga-
rette. On the floor near the window
was ring worn by the victim. His
clothing had been neatly arranged and
the bedclothes were drawn back. The
bed, however, had not been occupied.
Here the mystery becomes intangible.
The popular theory seems to have it
that the ycnng man, having prepared
for bed, thought to indulge in "good
night SMOKE" that he chose the cool
of the window, possibly dozed, lost his
balance and fell from the window. The
presence Of The ring on the floor, how
ever, gave rise to the fancy that pos.
sibly while toying with the ring it
dropped. and that in an effort to re-
happened. the known facts seem to
make it conclusive that it was all a
frightful accident.
An examination of the remains dis
closed discoloration on the right
forehead, a confusion on the right arm
and abrasion of the right leg. A plain
ring worn on the right hand was bent
and cut. No bones were broken and
there was no external fracture of the
skull. In the GO feet fight downward
the body escaped striking a balcony
one story below and crashed upon the
pavement with all the force of a mo-
mentum increased by the weight of a
man of such large physique as young
Hay. Those members of the class of
'9s who are in town, after the examina-
ton by the coroner''s physician, escort
ed the body from the undertaking es-
tablishment to the private residence of
Mr.. Seth Moseley, of the New Haven
house. Here it awaited the arrival of
the relatives.
The triennial class of '9S, of which
Adelbert Hay was member, has gone
into mourning. New arrivals of the
class, many of whom heard the news
for the first time on reaching the col
lege town, ar. shocked, and it has been
practically decided to make no formal
arrangements for a class recognition
