y e . T.. i u
Bremen. August 1s.-J PRESIDENT Pedro
Montt, of Chile, died :Iere tonight at
1850 O'clock. His death was due to
a recurrence of heart failure, follow
ing the recent attack OF angina pecto-
ris, from which he suffered.
President Montt, accompanied by his
wife, reached Bremen this morning on
the steamship Kaiser Wilhelm der
Crosse from the United States, the
party having sailed from America last
Tuesday morning. The Chilean Execu-
tive wax cordially received in the
United States during his visit to that
country. and he spent one day as the
guest OF President Taft at the latter's
summer home at Beverly
After remaining in America about a
week. he engaged passage on the Kat
ser Wilhelm der Crosse, and on the
morning OF departure was standing by
Mayor Gaynor. Of New York. on the
ships deck. engaged in conversation
with that official. when the attempt was
made by Gallag her to kill the New York
Mayor. In company with others who
witnessed the attempted assassination,
President Montt became very highly
excited. and 1t is thought probable that
the unusual strain through which he
passed may have been indirectly the
cause Of the heart attack which ended
his life tonight.
President Montt while in the United
States visited New York and Boston.
from the latter place going to Bever-
ly to pay his respects to President
Taft. Three aides representing the
State, War and Navy Departments ac-
scompanied him on his various trips,
and did everything possible to make
his stay a pleasant one. The trip to
America was made on account of the
condition of his heart, following a
severe illness and 1t was hoped that
he would be permanently benefited.
He was a popular official and had
done ,nuch during his term OF or!ice
to increase the prosperity OF his
country and to add TO Its frisnd!s re-
lations with other nations.
