Chicago, March 81 Gustavus
Franklin Swift, president of the Swift
Packing company, is dead at his home
4SS Ellis avenue, of internal hemor-
rhages, resulting from surgical
operation performed several days ago.
Mr. Swift was GO years old
The hemorrhage which caused Mr..
Swifts death resulted from an opera
ton for an infection of the gall blad-
der, performed March %. His death
was entirely unexpected both by Mr..
Swifts family and his physicians.
He had given every indication OF
recovery and all danger was consider
ed past In fact, so hopeful was every
one, including himself, for his speedy
recovery that his son, Herbert l..
Swift, who had been summoned from
Boston, left Saturday night to return
to the east. This son was intercepted
at Harrisburg, Pa, today with a tele-
gram announcing the death of his
father.
Mr.. Swift had been suffering for
some time with bladder trouble, and
a week ago an operation was deter
mined upon to give him relief. 1t was
not expected that the operation would
prove especially dangerous and moth
ing happened to cause a change in this
hopefulness until this morning. His
improvement was stopped suddenly by
a hemorrhage which the doctors were
unable to check and which caused his
death in a short time.
No arrangements for the funeral
have yet been made.
His Life Career.
Gustavus Franklin Swift began his
business career as a butcher. He
leaves a fortune estimated at from
s. 100000 to $10,O00,000 made in tho
course of As years. He was born a
Sandwich, Mass, in 1889. He opened
a small butcher shop in his native
town. He removed to Boston wher
he was less than 80 years of age. He
remained in Boston until 1875, wheI
he came to Chicago. In this city h'
engaged in the same business which
he had left in Massachusetts, and de
velOped the department of shipping
live cattle to eastern markets. In 1877
he evolved plans for the first refrie
Grating car, and dressed meats instea
of live animals we're shipped to east
ern cities. He was the pioneer in thi
kind of business and it was not Ion
before others saw the advantages Q
his methods and initiated him.
Mr.. Swift was not only the oldes
packer at the time of his death, bu
he was the originator of the method
that has made many large fortunes
From the small plant started in 1877
has developed a great corporation wit
branches at Kansas City, ST JOSEPH
st. Louis, Omaha st. Paul and Fol-
Worth, Tex, and with distributing o
sfices in every important city and tow
in the United States and with repr
sentatives in leading cities of tn
United States, Asia and Africa. II

MAJOR MAcDoNALD's REMAINS.
Body Passes Through London for
EdinburQ

London, March 30.-rhe dispatch Of
the remains of Major Macdonald, who
committed suicide in Paris, to Scotland
by train was the occasion for a re-
markable demonstration, owing to the
fact that his widow has decided that
the burial shall take place at 6 o'clock
in the morning, Immediately after the
arrival of the body at Edinburgh. Hun
dreds of Scotchmen, representing the
Highland societies, and several Scotch
members of parliament, gathered on
the platform at Kings Cross railway
station here. Most of the Scotchmen
wore their national costumes. Wreaths
were placed on the coffin in the name
of the different clans, and the pipers
played national dirges as the body was
entrained
All attempts to persuade the widow
to delay the interment and permit the
Highlanders to arrange for a national
funeral in the Highlands having fail
ed a large number of influential
ScOtchmen adjourned to the hotel in
the railway station and held meet
ing of protest The Scotch members
of parliament, Allan and Galloway
Weir, and others made speeches, and
a resolution was adopted urging the
lord provost of Marlborough to renew
the efforts to have the funeral post
poned.
Unnoticed in London.
The generals remains arrived in
London at o'clock in the morning,
accompanied only by Sir Hector 5
brother his cousin, who is a clergy
man, and an undertaken. Nobody was
at the station to meet the party. The
body, enclosed in plain wooden pack
ing case bearing the stenciled inscrip-
ton III. E. NJ" Edinburgh, was driv-
en- unnoticed through London to King
Cross railway station in a one horse
railway parcel van, the tarpaulin OF
which was decorated with a seaside
advertisement. The coffin was re
moved to the baggage car of the train
where it lay throughout the day. Lady
Jueane, the philanthropist, and wife
of Judge Jueane, who comes of the
Seaforth family of Stewart Mackenzie
brought some roses and placed then
on the coffin.
Scotchmen are indignant at the in
cOngruity of the whole affair and tn
refusal of the war office to be con
nected with the funeral.

The republican supporters of the
statehood bill have not met an utter
defeat. it seems. Their fi~libustering
colleagues. who have succeeded in
preventing the original bill from
reaching a vote. are understood to
have promised to introduce a straight
republican measure in the next n
gress permitting the admission of Ok
lahoma and of New Mexico and Ari-
IONA as one commonwealth. Such a
bill. while not satisfactory to the DEM
ocrats or TO the inhabitants Of the two
southwestern territories, would at
least serve TO fulfill the pledge of the
republican party in its platform OF
1900. and the earlier pledge of the
nation contained in the treaty by
which Mexico coded the territory

so years ago.

- The forms and decorations of fine china
are an ever present source of interest to
lovers Of the ceramic art, says the Public
Ledger So many rare conceptions in
color and decorations are to be found in
the popular pottery Of the day that there
seems scarcely room for anything new to
develop, yet something new Is always
coming up in these, as in other things.
=. Among fine pottery that is attracting
some attention at present is the Austrian
Teplitz ware. A greater variety Of form
and wealth of color can scarcely be found
in any single line of fine china. In its
forms mythology. history, fiction and
Bible lore are represented. A simple dish
