HEART DISEASE FATAL
TO SIDNEY S. WILLIAMS
Prominent CIubman Succumbs
in Chicago While on Way
to California.

Sidney S. Williams of this city died
suddenly of heart failure in Chicago late
yesterday afternoon. He was found
dead lying across his bed in sleeping
room of the Chicago Athletic Club by
friends who had called to see him. Mr..
Williams was thirty-two years Of age.
He was member of the Chevy Chase
Club. and had always taken a keen in
terest in athletics and outdoor sports.
He had been in very poor health for
some time. and upon the advice of physi-
clans here he was on, his way to Califor-
mia to seek recuperation in q change of
climate when he was overtaken by death.
His Friends Notified.
Mr.. Williams was the son of Mr. and
Mrs George Sidney Williams, whose FAM
lily home is in Chicago, and was a BROTH
er-in-law of Horace Lee Washington,
United States consul at Liverpool, Eng
land. and Francis Bennett Poe, real
estate dealer OF this. city. Mr.. and Mrs.
Poe departed at once for Chicago on re-
ceiving news of the DEATH.
Mr.. Williams parents had resided in
Washington the last two years-for one
year at Ills I'D street northwest and the
last year at the Brighton, 2131 California
avenue northwest. Both are now on their
way Lo SdUIOrnld, having
planned before their departure to meet
their son in Pasadena. where they intend
ed to spend the winter. 1t is not believed
that they are Yet aware of their sons
death. They left for the west via New
York, where they took steamer for
Panama, intending to cross the isthnus
and take steamer from the west coast
northward to San Francisco, thence to
Pasadena by train. Owing to his i'm
paired health. their son started west by
train and tarried In Chicago to visit a
few old friends before continuing his
journey to the coast.
Not in Active Business.
Neither Mr.. Williams nor his son had
been actively engaged in any employment,
the former having retired from the real
estate business in Chicago few years
ago.
Mr.. Williams secured quarters at the
Athletic Club in Chicago last Monday
and retired early that evening" He was
not seen alive again.
The funeral and interment will be held
in Chicago tomorrow morning.

Ignored by the Railroads.

The railroads. it was declared, have given
no consideration whatever to the condi-
lions as outlined. and If they are allowed
to put into effect the advances they have
proposed they will seriously disarrange
the industry to the injury not only Of the
eastern manufacturer. but Of themselves
as well. 1t was pointed out that it is
clearly to their advantage to have freight
move on something like the old lines.
Such an increase as now proposed, the
witness said, will soon put the eastern
trade out OF the west, check competition
and deprive the consumer OF the adyan-
tage which he has obtained from the ideal
condition VIII CHI now prevails.
The witness also said he believes that
not only is the amount Of the increase a
material item in the cost of the shoe, but
the most disastrous effect would be the
increase in the expenses of the western
retailer on all eastern goods handled
This would compel him for his own pro-
lection and self-preservat:o to discon-
tinue the use of eastern goods as rapidly
as western goods could be found to fill
their place.

DECLARES NEW RATES.
BAD FOR SHOE TRADE
Eastern Makers Would Lose to
Western Competitors, De-
cIares Boston Man.

Under questions by Louis D. Brandeis
at the rate hearing before the inter-
state commerce commission today
Charles II. Jones Of Boston, shoe man
ufacturer, declared that the proposed
Increases of rates by the railroads will
practically eliminate the eastern shoe
manufacturer from the western mar
ket.
/ He pointed out that conditions in the
shoe manufacturing industry are per-
haps not as fully understood in their
relation to the proposed advance as
they should be. "A free and intense
competition" he said, has developed a
product OF practically unequal value TO
the consumer"
Shoes, he averred, are exceptional
among the important manufactured items
which are produced more cheaply in this
country than in any country Of the world,
despite the fact that labor on shoes in
Foreign countries varies from one-fourth
to one-half the cost per day or per week
less than Is paid in this country.
Under the eX sting rates, he said. the
supremacy of the east in the manufacture
or shoes has been successfully challenged
Dy the manufacturers of the west, and at
the present one finds a healthy and ag-
sressive competition from one section
with the other. While the east eXcels in
some respects. 1t was pointed out the west
mas undoubted advantages in other direc-
lions, and 1t is obviously in the interest of
the consumers that this competition be
