Declaring that it is well known tina:
goods are sold in some instances abroad
cheaper than at home, Senator CALM

SENATOR w. ]. BRYAN.
Youngest Member of United States
Senate Dies In Washington.

Washington, March 22-Cnted
States Senator William James Bryan
Of Florida died at the Providence hos
rital at $50 o'clock this morning of
typhoid fever. 1t was only IS days
since he took his seat as the successor
of tho late stephen i. Mallory. who
died Dec. %. and SO days of that time
was spent in his fight against disease.
Several times during Mr. Bryan's ILL
ness his friends dcspaired of his re-
ccverv, but as late as last night it
WAS reported that his condition had
taken turn for the better His death
today. therefore, came as surprise
and 4 distinct shock.
In physique Mr.. Bryan was untitled
to Withstand Il protracted fever He
was slight of build and of a nervous
temperament. He came 20 Washington
early in January from the warm eli
mate of Florida and from the day OF
his arrival was far from well. Final-
" lie was compelled to give up and
was taken to Providence hospital.
During the last few days of his illness
he was attended by a specialist from
Johns Hopkins University hospital,
Baltimore.
In Mr.. BRYAN the Senate loses the
seventh member by death since the adj
journment Of the 59th Congress on
March I, Il year ago. They were the
two late senators from Alabama. Mr.
Morgan and Mr.. Pettus; Mr.. Mallory
of Florida; Mr.. Latimcr of South Car
DINA, Mr.. Proctor of Vermont; Mr.
Whyte of Maryland and Mr.. Bryan.
Curiously. the last two were respec-
lively the oldest and the youngest
members of the body. Mr. Whyte was
81 years old and Mr. Bryan less than
80
Although Mr.. Bryan was in the
Senate too short a time to impress his
individually on legislation or take a
prominent part in the consideration of
matters in committee, it is conceded
that had he lived he would have be-
come forceful part of the minority.
Mr.. Bryan was born in Orange coun-
ty, Fla. oct. 10. 1876. He attended the
public schools Of his state and Emery
College. Georgia. graduating from the
latter institution in 1896. Three years
later he was graduated from Washing
ton and Lee University, and in 1899 be-
gan the practice of law in Jacksonville.
Fla. Until Il short time before his ap-
pcintmcnt to succeed Mr. Mallory in
the Senate, he served as solicitor of
the Duval county criminal court. He
married Miss Janet Allan of Lexing-
ton. Va.
The body Of Senator Bryan accom-
panied by a committee from the SEN
ate will leave here tomorrow morning
over the Southern Railway for Jack
sonviIle. Fla. where interment will be
made on Wednesday. An unusual cir
cumstancc will be the absence of a
funeral committee from the House of
Representatives 1t was the wish of
the family that the usual congression-
al committees be dispensed with, but
this was reconsidcred and it was de-
cided that the Senate only should be
represented at the funeral
