Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, November 16-Robert

Of Robert Morrison & Son. whose cellu-
loid factory at $50 and 152 Columbia
street, Brooklyn. was Quilted by fire
week ago. with the loss Of eleven lives.
was found dead In the bathroom Of his
home at 20 Strong place. Brooklyn, at 3
o'clock this morning. Gas was flowing
from an open Jet when the son. Robert
e Morrison. opened the bathroom door
and found his father stretched out on the
floor. Although the young man opened
the window and got his father into the
open air. he was unable to revive him.
Mr.. Morrison was badly burned in the
FIRE himself. and had been under treat
ment at the Long Island Hospital until
Friday. when he was pronounced well
enough to be taken home. Ever since
the fire he had been in an extremely de-
spondent condition. In addition to losing
his son William, twenty-five years old
who was among those burned to death,
1t was said today that he had lost prac-
tically all that he had. Added to these
troubles was the constant worry over
the fact that ten OF his employees had
lost their lives in the fire.

He was no stranger to fear-no man with

minutes he performed prodigies Of valor:
his arms wrought like piston rods, his
