DOLLIVER
 DIES UNEXPECTEDLY
Iowa Representative SuCCumbs
 After Being Out All Day.

Jonathan Prentiss Deliver. senior senator from Iowa, died at his home in Fort Dodge, Ia., very suddenly. His death was totally unexpected and occurred during an examination with a stethoscope by his physician, who suddenly discovered that the senator's heart had ceased to beat while he was counting.
 Senator Deliver had spent the en- tire day downtown, and his condition had much improved steadily for sew eral days. His physicians had said that he would rapidly recover, and the examination under way when he breathed his last was thought to be the final one in determining the course of his treatment
 He had suffered from acute indiges- rion. The gas formed in the stomach had pressed upon the heart. and 1t was this strain which resulted in his death.
 The senator's wife and three chil- dren were in his apartments during the examination.
 Senator Deliver was hfty-two years old. He was born In Preston county. W. Va, and was graduated from the University of West Virginia in 1875. Three years later he was admitted 10 the bar and opened law office at Fort Dodge, Ia., which has been his home since that time. He was honored with the degree of LID by Bethany col lege in 1900, Cornell college, Iowa, In 1902, and Miami university in 1905.
 Senator Deliver went to congress first as member of the house in 1889, from the Tenth Iowa district. His term in the Fifty-sixth congress was broken in upon in 1900 when he was appointed senator for the unexpired term of the late John Fl. Gear. After that he was elected to the senate twice and bis last term was to end In 1913

CONSIDERING ROOT
 AS CHIEF JUSTICE.
Tatt Has Had Him In Mind
 Ever Since Vacancy.

President Taft is considering United States Senator Root for appointment as chief justice of the supreme court No decision has been reached yet by MT. Taft in regard to the chief justice ship, but Senator Root Is regarded by him at this time with as much favor as any other man.
 The president, 1t is said has had the appointment of Senator Root in mind almost from the day of the death of Chief Justice Fuller, and officials of the administration who have conferred with him are authority for the state ment that it is Senator Root and not Justice Hughes whom the president desires to make chief justice.
 There is good reason to believe that MT. Root would accept the place if 1t were offered him.
 This was learned on excellent au- thority. Senator Roots chances for appointment will depend largely, how ever, on the result of the coming cleo ton in New York state. If Repub- lican legislature is elected the senator's chances will be increased, for his ap- pointment under any other circum- his seat to the Democrats.
 Senator Root called on the president at Beverly not long ago, but, as Mir. Taft's friends here understand 1t, noth- ing definite passed between them about Senator Root taking place on the bench

TAFT WILL LEAVE
 STATES FOR PANAMA
To Study Question of Kind of
 Government t Shall Have.

Congress will be called upon this winter to pass important legislation for the Panama canal. President Taft considers the propositions which he will recommend in his coming message of so much importance that he has re- versed his decision not to go to the isthmus this fall and will leave on the trip on Nov. 15.
 The presidents decision to go to Panama was received after a confer ence at Beverly, Mass, with Colonel George w. Goethals, the army engi- neer in charge of the construction of the canal Colonel Goethals was eager to have the president make the trip, and MT. Taft was greatly impressed by his arguments.
 The president in going to Panama this time intends to take up the prob lens that will face this government after the opening of the canal to the ships of the world, and it is in regard to some of these problems that con- this winter.
 One or the questions toy De deter mined by the president is what form of government he will recommend to congress for the canal zone.
 Colonel Goethals will urge the es- tabIishment of a military government for the entire zone. The colonel told MT. Taft that he was inclined to this form because when the canal is com pIotad thara will ha DracffcaIIv onlv the ditch" with government employ ees and the Notifications, within the zone owned by the United States.
