Succumbs to Typhoid.
Taken Down With Grip Soon After
He Was Sworn In and Later With
Disease That Proved Fatal.

Washington, D. C.-Death visited
the United States Senate for the sew
enth time since the adjournment of
the Fifty-ninth Congress on March
a year ago. taking William James
Bryan, of Florida. who died in Provi-
dence Hospital here at S.2l o'clock a.
1 IN. For more than seven weeks Mr..
Bryan had been suffering from ty-
phoid fever. For days his condition
had been critical, his life hanging in
the balance almost from hour 10 hour.
When the end came his wife and
brother were with him.
Mr.. Bryan was the youngest men,
Der OF the Senate, taking his seat
when only three months past thirty
one years Of age. His seat was next
TO that occupied By William Pinkney
Whyte, of Maryland, aged eighty
four, the oldest member. Mr.. Whyte
divided his time between coaching
Mr.. Bryan, who sat on his right, and
Mr.. Gore. the blind orator from Okla-
homa, who sat on his left. Mr..
Whyte was buried two days before
Mr.. Bryan's death.
Mr.. Bryan actually served in the
Senate only a trife more than three
weeks. He took his seat January 8,
succeeding to a vacancy occasioned
by the death of Senator Mallory, Of
Florida, December 23, 1907.
The young Senator was a man Of
pleasing personality and made a
large number of friends during his
brief service. He was an athlete
and apparently had enjoyed the best
of health. President Roosevelt took
a great liking to him and they were
companions on several long walks.
The President often declared, Il wish
l could have Mr.. Bryan in my Cab
met"
William James Bryan was the
youngest man TO enter the Senate far
more than a century. Henry Clay
holds the record, having taken the
oath when only twenty-nihe years
old, being year under the constitu-
tional requirement that man must
be thirty years old before acquiring
that honor. The Legislature of Ken
lucky sought to evade this provision
Of the Constitution by having Mr..
Clay appointed instead of electing
him. The Senate accepted this eva
sion and permitted Mr.. Clay to take
his seat.
William James Bryan was born In
Orange County, Florida. October 10,
1875. He attended the public schools
OF his State and Emory College.
Georgia, and was graduated from the
latter institution in 1896. Three

fession at Jacksonville, Fla. From

ROBERT BACON,
Acting Secretary"
japanese Embassy,

Acceptance of the invitation broke
up the itinerary previously announced
and the Bureau of Navigation is busy
drafting new one. The feet will
sail from San Francisco July for
Hawaii. The next port visited will
be Melbourne or Sydney, Australia.
1t had been intended that the feet
should go from Australia direct to
the Philippines, but in the meantime
New Zealand has sent an urgent invi-
tation. This could have been de-
clined had not the Japanese invita-
ton been accepted. 1t is probable
that New Zealand will be visited.
Then the feet will go either direct
ly to Manila and call On Japan on the
way home, or first TO Yokohama, call
ing at Manila later This part of the
itinerary will depend on economy of
coal and time. Yokohama has been
selected as the Japanese port to be
visited, as the United States has a
coaling station there.
The acceptance of the japanese in
vitation Is regarded in official circles
as of importance in the way of a
demonstration of the cordiality exist
ing between the American and jap
anese governments The added trip
is nearly equal in distance to a voy-
age from New York to Europe.
