MORTON is DEAD.
The Ex.SccretarY Of Agriculture and Founder
Of ArbOr Day Passes Away.

Inc CN'oeCretdrY OF agriculture ana TOuhoer
Of ArbOr Day Passes Away.
Chicago, April 29.--Hon. ]. Sterling
Morton, ex-secretary Of agriculture,
died at Lake Forest, at the home of his
son, Mark Morton. For several weeks
Mr.. Morton has been gradually failing.
The nature of his sickness had not been
determined, and a week ago he was
brought from his home at Nebraska
City, Neb., to Lake Forest for medical
attention. The change brought no inn
provement, and he declined gradually
until death came.
Death was due to cerebral thrombus.
The illness of Secretary Morton dates
from last November, when he con-
tracted a severe cold while speaking at
the stock show in Chicago. The cold
run into an attack OF la grippe, and
Mr.. Morton was in hospital for some
time. When he was able to do so he
returned to his home in this city, where
he suffered relapse. After a partial
recovery he left early in January for
the City of Mexico, accompanied by his
son, Paul Morton, vice president of
the Santa Fe Railway. Mr.. Morton
continued to grow worse in the South
ern country, however, and six weeks
ago he returned to his old home in
Nebraska. He then came to Chicago,
where it was believed be would have
better medical treatment. After he
arrived here he improved somewhat,
and it was believed for time he would
entirely recover from his ailment.
Last week he suffered stroke of apo.
plexy, from which he never recovered.
A second stroke proved fatal.
His three sons, Paul Morton, Joy
Morton and Mark Morton, were at the
bedside when the end came.
