Molly Eliot Seawell the noted authoress
of this city, died last night while en- route

placed on the midnight train at Jersey City.
She had become seriously i'll on the steamer
iceland. which arrived in New York yes
terday.
Miss Seawell was widely known in the
social and literary circles of the city. and
frequently assisted her sister in many brill
liant social functions at her home, 1857 p
street.
A dispatch from New York tells of the
arrival of the Misses Seawell there and of
the summoning of DR.. Fry from this city
by wireless telegraph. 1t says:
AS the Red Star liner iceland was cover
ing the last few knots of her trip from
Antwerp to New York yesterday, special
Pennsylvania railroad train was fastening
hther DR.. Henry D. Fry Of Washington,
whom wireless telegraph from the iceland
had summoned to attend Miss Henrietta

to port alive. Five months ago Miss Hen
rietta Seawell, suffering from heart trou-
ble went to Europe with her sister. stayed
at Mannheim, and for time was bene-
flied. In the last month she again began
to fail, and was determined to return to
America.
They boarded the iceland at Antwerp.
Miss Seawelrs condition improved, but yes
terday morning she suddenly became very
weak 1t was suggested to Miss Molly Sea-
well that she get into communication as
soon as possible with DR.. Frye. who had at
tended Miss Henrietta Seawell several
times. The wireless apparatus was called
into play, but the ship was too far at sea
to reach Siasconsett. Finally cOmmunica-
ton was established at distance of eighty
four miles, and an urgent message sent to
the Washington physician.
Miss Seawell was resting easily when the
ship reached port but it was said then that
her chances of recovery were slight.
She was placed on the midnight train for
the capital.

Speech Of Acceptance.

CLEAN. N. Y. October 4.-Lieut- Gov.
Frank wayland Higgins. the nominee Tor
governor. and his associates on the repub-
lican state ticket. were today formally noti-
fed Of their nomination. The ceremonies
were held on the veranda of the hsne of
Lieut.. Gov. Higgins. The streets of the
city were lavishly decorated with flags and
bunting. Hundreds of prominent republic
cans of western New York and many from
more distant points assembled to pay
tribute to the standard bearers of the party.
In reply to the speech of notification by
State Senator Malby Lieut.. Gov. Higgins
spoke. in part. as follows:
In the present year state and national in
terests are inseparably related. The pros
per1ty of the state cannot continue unless
the national administration is an efficient
one: unless the policies which have brought
prosperity and employment are continued.
and the principles OF the republican party
are given full force and effect. The people
OF this state and other states. therefore, are
u be congratulated in that the republican
party. represented in national convention,
selected as its candidate for President
Theodore Roosevelt.
Opposed to Theodore Roosevelt Is q man
whose chief claim for merit seems to be a
telegram-Sent too late to change the result
Of a convention that had almost adjourned
defining position which was well known
to those responsible for his nomination. but
Wnlch they refra1ned from communicating
to their fellow delegates.
AS between the records Of the two presi-
Dental candidates. having before it the re-
suits which have been accomplished by
each the republican party, in it's conven-
ton at Saratoga, did well to promise the
support of the republicans of the state Of
New York to the election OF Theodore
Roosevelt. and in furtherance of that pledge
l promised my most hearty cooperation.
Important as is republican success in the
state of New York. of far greater fmpor-
lance Is republican success in the nation.
Mr.. Higgins pledged that if elected he
would advocate the repeal of the tax upon
the surplus of savings banks, pointing out
that the tax upon the sale of liquor made
1t possible to forego the revenues from the
tax upon savings. He would see to it that
every dollar appropriated for canal i'm
provements be honestly expended. He
averred that more and better laws have
been enacted under republican administrA-
ton to safeguard the interest of labor and
capital than by their opponents. He be-
lieved 1t to be the duty of the executive
of a state to hold to strict accountable ~
every official of the state government, and
he would not, if elected. be deferred by
political or other considerations from a full
and conscientious discharge of such duty.
Suggestions would be welcome. dictation re-
PEELED. and in the end his Individual ju6g-
ment alone would determine his official
actions.
Senator Chauncey M. Depew made an ad-
dress in which he eulogiZed Mr.. Higgins
and discussed the national candidates and
the leading issues of the campaign.
