DEATH OF p. LARSON.
After Two Years
Illness,

Peter Larson of Helena, the we'll
known millionaire mining man and
railroad contractor, died Friday night
at Helena after two years illness.
Mr.. Larson, who came to this coun-
try SO years ago, penniless youth
but 20 years of age, was conceded to
be the wealthiest man in the north
west with the exception of Senator
William A. Clark of Montana. His
wealth probably exceeds $4,000, 900,
and by some people he was rated as
being worth more than $20,Q0O,000.
He and Thomas Greenough of Mis-
soula at one time owned the Morning
mine at Mullan. The property was
sold less than two years ago to the
Federal Mining & Smelling company
for $3,O00,000. Mr.. Larson owned
half interest of the property.
Mr.. Larson was born in 1849 on the
Danish island of Fyen. In 1869 he
came to this country and went to work
on the jetties at the mouth of the Mis-
sissippi river, going later to Arkansas,
where he first began railroad work.
His contracts for railroad building
were the first ventures to make him
rich. Among other lines Mr.. Larson
built the Wallace Missoula branch of
the Northern Pacific, the Spokane
Falls & Northern, and the Washington
Central. He also had large banking
and timber interests.
In 1880 Mr.. Larson welded Miss Mo-
ran of Cascade, Iowa.
Mr.. Larson's illness and death was
an indirect result of the Clallam dis
aster, for he was on the i'll fated
steamer, bound for Victoria, B. c., and
after the wreck was afloat in the cold
water for several hours before he was
finally rescued. Cirrhosis Of the liver
resulted and eventually caused his
death. About a year ago he joined
the Roman Catholic church at Helena.
