DEATH OF CARL ScHURZ.
Brilliant German American States
mans Career Ended.

New York.-Carl Schurz, widely
known as publicist and former Cabl'
net member, died here early Monday
morning from complication OF dis
eases, following an attack of stomach
trouble, which became acute Thursday
last.
At the bedside were a son, Carl L.,
and two daughters, Marianne, and
Agatha: Edward l.. Pretorius, Mr..
Schurz's business partner, and DR..
Jacob and Strauss.
Mr.. SchurZ was seventy-Slx years
old. having been born near Cologne,
March 2, 1929 Forced to fee from the
land of his birth before he had at
tanned his majority, Carl Schurz soon
became, and for more than half a cen
tury remained. one of the striking ng-
ures in the public life of the land OF MS
adoption. Born in the village OF Libe-
lar, near Cologne. in 1929, Schurz be-
came interested in the revolutionary
movement in Germany while attending
the University of Bonn, and when the
uprising came in 1S49, he served as an
officer in the ranks OF the insurgents.
He was with Gen. Tideman when the
latter surrendered the fortress OF Ras-
tadt in July OF that year. and made an
almost eoSopC thioA9A eAAS
sewer connecting with the Rhine and
fed to Switzerland. A year later he
returned to Germany, under an as.
sumed name, for the purpose OF Hber-
ating his friend, Prof. Kinkel, who had
been taken a prisoner at the surrender
of the fortress and sentenced to life
imprisonment. This daring and ro-
mantle project was carried to a sue
cessful conclusion and created a SEN
satiou throughout Europe.
His marriage to Margaret Mayer, the
daughter of a prominent merchant, IN
1852, was an indirect outgrowth OF the
sensational rescue of his friend from
prison.
Soon after his marriage, Schurz came
to this country, locating first at Phila.
delphia. Three years later he moved
to Wisconsin, allied himself with the
Fremont forces in the campaign. and
took part in the campaign Of the fol.
lowing year. During the succeeding
twenty years he was one OF the promi-
nent figures in the political history OF
the country. He went to Spain as
United States minister, in 1861, later
r.signing to return and serve in the
! Civil War, du, ing which he earned the
title Of major general.
