D0LLlVER CALLED BY
DEATH IN IOWA HOME
Progressive Republican Senator Passes Away
Suddenly Of Dilatation Of the Heart---His
Vitality Was Weakened by Campaign in Wis
Constructive Life for His Country---Was
Famed as an Orator.

Fort Dodge, 1a.-United States Sen.
ator Jonathan Prentiss Dolliver died
suddenly Saturday night at his resi-.
dence while being treated by an este
opathic physician.
The cause of death was dilatation of
the heart, due directly to an attack of
acute indigestion. 1t had been believed
that he had almost entirely recovered
from the attack of indigestion from
which he had been suffering for a
week, but his exertions in the political
campaign had weakened his vitality.
Physician Hears End Come.
While working over the senator the
physician, Dr. E. M. Van Patton, used
an instrument to listen to the heart
action. He had counted IA regular
strokes and had informed his patient.
Two more strong heartbeats were
recorded and then two faint ones.
Then the physician heard nothing. He
thought for an instant that his steth-
oscope was faulty. He glanced up and
discovered that his patient was dead.
1t was learned that consultation of
physicians was held a week ago. The
decision then was that the senator
might prolong his life by relinquishing
his work, but that he never again
would speak in the senate or thrill an
audience from public platform.
Gave Life to Country.
DR.. A. H. McCreight, one Of the con
sulting physicians, declared to Mrs.
Manchester Democrat. [volume] (Manchester, Iowa) 1875-1930, 1910-10-26

declaring, however, that the senator
must give up his public work.
He himself repeatedly said that he
was not seriously Ill, declaring that IT
he were he would "set the wolves
bowling" and admitting that he had a
horror Of knowing that the politicians
were discussing his successor while
he was i'll. on the theory that he might
die.
Talk Of Successor.
Nevertheless, within an hour after
the senator's death, the question of
who his successor would be was the
theme of general discussion in politi-
cal circles. 1t Is predicted that Cover
nor Carroll will not appoint any per-
son to fill the vacancy. for the legisla-
ture about to be elected will convene
within eight of ten weeks. Governor
Carroll is a candidate for reelection.
and 1t Is believed by many that he
will leave it to the legislature to fill
the vacancy.
Delivers Life Story.
Jonathan P. Dolliver was born in
1858 near Kngwood, Preston county,
w. Va. He was the son of a minister
in the mountain district. He had to
pay part of his own way through West
Virginia university because his circuit
riding fathers income was small.
At seventeen, when the boy had won
his graduation diploma, he began the
study of law and was admitted to the

bar on coming of age.
Fame as an Orator.
1t was in 1884 that Mr.. Dolliver first
achieved national fame as an orator.
He made speech at the Republican
state convention as temporary chair
man. His speech was printed in full
and was widely copied all over the
country and even in England. where it
was cited as a rare specimen of min.
gled wit and power and condensed or
atory in political speaking.
Wins Leadership In Congress.
Mr.. Dolliver was elected to the Fiji
ty-tirst congress from the Tenth Iowa
district and was five times reelected.
Easily his oratory and strong mental
ity earned him high place in ma
tional affairs. In 1900. on the death Of
United States Senator ]. H. Gear,
Governor Shaw found Mr.. Dolliver was
the logical successor to the seat In the
upper house. He was appointed, was
elected in 1902, and was reelected
when his term expired.
When the Republican leaders looked
about for possible running mate for
Mckinley, Mr. Dolliver was presented
as Iowa's favorite son. In 1908 also
he was urged to accept the vice-prest
dental nomination and refused.

AMERICA CREW BACK
wELLMAN AND COMPANIONS RE-
TURN TO NEW YORK
ON TRENT.
LEADER is SLIGHTLY HURT
Has Some injuries on Arm and
Hand; Grew Eager to Try Again
Balloon 10 Probably Lost In
Ocean.

New York.-Walter Wellman, who
with his crew of five men sailed from
Atlantic City, N. j., for Europe in the
immense dirigible balloon America
last Saturday, got back to this city
Wednesday on the Royal Mail Steam
Packet line steamer Trent.
Barring few injuries to his right
Arm and one Of the fingers of his
right hand. the man who directed this
daring attempt to cross the ocean in
gas bag returns in good physical
shape although his nerves are some
what shattered and he has reached
the conclusion that in the present de-
velopment of the dirigible the task
he undertook is a hopeless one.
The members of his crew came
back bubbling with enthusiasm over
their adventures and with open ex-
pressions Of willingness to try it again
as soon as anyone produces a bal
loon which has half chance of ma
king the journey.
New York.-The first attempt to
cross the Atlantic in dirigible bal
loon has proved failure. The Amer
lea, with Walter Wellman and his par
ty of five on board, was picked up
Tuesday morning almost 375 miles
due east of Cape Hatteras, by the in
coming Bermuda liner Trent.
News OF the rescue came in two
wireless messages from Captain Down
of the Trent, one reporting to the
company agents here and another in
forming the New York Times of the
result of the expedition in which it
had taken leading part.
Captain Down reported that at five
o'clock Tuesday morning he first
sighted the airship. Signals of dis
tress and calls for help were given.
For three hours the Trent Unanswered
in the heavy sea to get alongside of
Wellman and his wrecked companions.
The entire party finally was taken
aboard, even to the cat. which was
taken along as mascot. The Amer
lea was abandoned where the rescue
occurred. in latitude 35.43, longitude
68.18.
In abandoning their craft the crew
of the airship America lowered them
selves into the lifeboat which swung
beneath 1t. Then they cast the life
boat off and were afloat on the sea
The airship, relieved of the weight OF
the lifeboat. shot high into the air
and was blown away rapidly. The
transfer of the Wellman party from
the lifeboat to the Trent was made
with great difficulty.
