SENATOR G0RMAN DEAD
AFTER LONG ILLNESS
Had Shown improvement Lately, and
Summons Came Suddenly and
Unexpectedly.

Neutrality-suspicious. Pue German,
United States senator from Maryland,
died suddenly at his residence In this
city at 9:05 o'clock Monday morning.
While Senator German had been Ill for
many months, he had shown some i'm.
provement lately. Heart trouble was
the immediate cause of death.
Up to the moment OF death Senator
German was conscious. His condition
during the past week had improved SO
much that the family had hopes OF
shortly taking him to the country.
Senator German long had been q
notable figure in the national congress.
He first took his seat In 1881, and
served continuously for eighteen years
and nearly all OF that time he was
the leader OF his party in the senate
Winning early a reputation for saga

available man in his party for the
executive committee and managed the
campaign that resulted In the election
OF Cleveland in 1884.
The most notable contest OF his
congressional career and one which
attracted to him wider attention than
anything else was when he led the
senate minority in 1S90-1S91 and de-
feated the federal elections bill.
