was the chief cause of Edward H.
Harrimans death as officially stated
tonight by DR.. w. CO Lyle.
There was no mention of cancer,
but it was noted that the word
chief was inserted in the printed
form after the question "cause of

blood pernicious anaemia, there

Oedema of the lungs or water on the

accepted might have resulted from
variety of causes. ~ 9s~i
Immediately after, the death cetti-
ficate was filed a burial permit was
granted During yesterday DR.. Lyle
had filed certificate with the un-
dertaker in which he said simply
that Mr.. Harriman's death resulted
from "heart failure superinduced by
internal complications
DR.. Lyle also states positively in
the certificate filed with the town
clerk that Mr.. Harriman's death oc-
Cured at 1855 D. m. on September
8. The certificate which is attested
by Walter Averil Hartman, Mr. Har-
rimans eldest son, reads in part:
II hereby certify that l attended
the deceased from August a, 1909,
to September 8, 1909, that / last
saw him alive September 8. 1909,
and that death occurred on the date
stated above at 3: 55 p. m"
~, L.
of death is given and the signature
appended, William Gordan Lyle, M.
d., 60 West Fifty-eighth street, New
York
Mr.. Harriman's age at the time of
his death was given as sixty-one
years, six months and fifteen days,
and it was set forth that he had lived
in Arden for twenty two years. DR..
Lyle's action in amplifying on the.
certificate filed with the undertaken
smoothed out what might have de-
veloped into hitch at the funeral.
s. Spendleton, acting town clerk at
Highland Mills, had said previously
to the filing. of the certificate that
he did not feel that DR.. Ly1e's state
men othe undertaken was sufficient
Dr. Lyle in putting into writing
the time of Mr.. Harriman's death at
3:55 seems to have dissipated the
report which was accepted for a
while that he died at / 1:30 p. M, but
that the news was held back until
after the close of the New York stock
exchange. The fact that cancer is
not mentioned also comedies, with

OLD LEVEL DEVELOPMENTS
MUST COME.
No Cause for Anxiety, Says Henry
Cews, for Crop Situation Might
Easily Be Worse.

NEW YORK, June 2.-(SpeciaD-If
prices are to Zoe held at their old level
some further stimulating developments
WI be required. Much depends upon
the crop situation, which, is not as en-
couraging in certain respects as might
be desired Nevertheless, there is no
cause as yet for anxiety. The outlook
is for a fair sized wheat crop, although
the nation would unquestionably be
benefited by a much larger yield than
is now in prospect. There is, however,
much compensation in the outlook for
corn, which promises a large and prof
stable crop; possibly the largest on rec
ord. Our corn crop last year was val
and cotton combined. The outlook for
cotton is for an average crop at good
3ze expectations there will be no reason

highly important element in the con-
Sinuance Of national prosperity, and
they are in the fortunate position of
having sure market for all that they
can possibly produce at very profitable
prices Such conditions should stimu-
late their eXertions to the utmost in
order to secure the largest yield pos
sible, a result which would be not only
benefic al to them, but to consumers at
large, who are feeling the present high
costs of all food products.
The most encouraging conditions in
sight are those connected with the in
dustrial situation. Our iron trade shows
steady Improvement, every branch of

cuperation: the volume of business he
Ing almost up to previous years. Some
considerable new capacity remains IN
unemployed. yet the tendencies are to-
wards further betterment and prices
0re rising. Railroads have placed large
orders for rails, structural material,
cars and engines. The building trade
continues excellent and is also a source
Of much new business, shrewd ard
wealthy operators having recognized
that the present is a most desirable cr-
portunity in which to place their orders
before further advances are established
The copper industry is also feeling the
effects of industrial Improvement; con-
sumers are placing increased orders,
and prices have been firm, although
production IS still in excess of consump-
ton and supplies on hand remain ex-

STIMULATION IS
DIRE NECESSITY

( generally is in exceptionally sound con-
dition, although the usual period Of
summer quiet is now approaching. 1t
! is significant that Fall River cotton
manufacturers did not enforce the re-
| duction in wages this week, which they
| could have done in accordance with the
labor contract. This showed satisfac-
! ton with present conditions and conf
dence in the future. The wooden mills
are well sold up and the big concerns
hold very large orders. All things con-
sidered, the mercantile situation is as
satisfactory as could be expected and
/ should show a further Improvement
next autumn, provided there is no dis
appointment regarding the harvest
Railroad traffic shows steady improve
ment and is being done on a much more
profitable basis than last year owing to
new economies and better rates.
The money market continues well
supplied with funds. Bank reserves
have lately been rising, notWithstand-
ing the expansion of loans and contin-
ued gold exports. The great surplus
of money seeking employment, not only
in the United States, but in all parts
Of the world, is emphatic testimony
that business though improving is still
al re
ton, however, is working out it's own
cure. Cheap money is one of the great
the best, provided it does not encour-
age undue speculation or imitation The
tendency for gold to go abroad con-
tinues, commercial exchange being
scarce because of continued small ex-
ports and large imports The future
volume of gold shipments may be af-
fected considerably by the securities
movement. London IS quite likely to
sell many of our higher priced securi-
ties in case of any further advance
On the other hand, it is probable that
a considerable proportion of security
issues, including those pending as we'll
as those already issued. will finx place
ment abroad, and London is now buy
ing our bonds to escape new taxation
There is nothing in the home monetary
situation to cause anxiety; yet the ten
denotes toward depletion of our gold
supplies and expansion of our paper
currency are not altogether healthy
symptoms. Western funds are still
coming in this direction with consid- |
cradle freedom, and easy money rates |
are probable for some time in the flu !
ture. Our leading bankers would well
come a slight stiffening of rates from
purely conservative and prudential
reasons, but this does not seem prob
able until autumn crop and trade re-
quirements assert themselves.
The early future Of the stock mar
ket must depend upon crop and gen.
eral business developments Should
these prove favorable a continued eff
fort will doubtless be made to lift the |
market still further, while discourag-
ing news would certainly have the re-
verse effect. No very wide fluctuations, |
however, are to be expected in eitherJ
direction at the present time.
