He had conversed with the mayor a
few minutes before the shots were
fred. The shock from this tragedy
is believed to have FASTENED his
death.
President Montt ranked as one OF
the foremost Latin-American states
men-He-he belonged 10 a family OF
great men. His father was president
OF Chile for 10 years, from 1s51-1S61
and he himself was elected for a
term of six years, June "a. 1907. He
was In Europe by special permission
OF the congress OF Chile to recoup his
health, which was seriously impaired
by his attention to duty in his own
country. Senior Montt was born in
1876 In Santiago, the capital Of Chile
He was graduated from the National
Institute OF Santiago with the degree
OF doctor of laws In 1870. In 1874 he
was elected TO congress, where he re-
NAMED almost continuously until he
became president. with the exception
OF having served as speaker OF the
house of representatives and as min
lister plenipotentiary to the United
States. He had made several jour.
neys to Europe and the different parts
OF Latin America, studying political
and economic questions
