Former Copper Magnate Dies
Despite ALI Efforts

Cananea, Mex, Aug. 5.-Col. w. C.
Greene, former copper magnate, died
at o'clock this morning. He sue
cumbed to acute pneumonia which de-
veloped as result of injuries he sus-
tanned in a runaway accident here last
Monday.
Death came shortly after the arrival
of the corps of physicians and nurses
rushed here by special train and auto
mobiles from Ell Paso. They brought
supplies of oxygen and spent the last
few hours trying to stave off the end.
but the stricken man never rallied
and passed away in the presence OF his
wife and children who had been con-
stantIy at his bedside.
Last Monday Colonel Greene was
thrown from his carriage when his
team ran away. His collar bone and
two OF his ribs were fractured. on
Thursday acute pneumonia conditions
developed in his lungs and messages
were sent to FL Paso for physicians
and nurses.
The physicians practiced their skill
but he failed to rally.

Most Important Trip Under

Present Plans for -Four Weeks

washington, ID. c. /, Aug. 5.-The
most important trip that President Taft
has planned since he has been in the
White House, in the view Of republican
leaders, a trip during which he is to
open the 1912 presidential campaign for
his party, will begin Sept. is. 1t will
last at least four weeks, and should
it later be decided to extend the out
ing six weeks. the president will not
get to Beverly or Washington until
November.
According to the plans. so fair drawn
UP at the White House, the president
will visit most of the states in the mid
die west, north of and including Mis-
souri, and will make incursions into
practically all the states which have
progressive congressional delegations.
The president so far has given all
most no consideration to speech-mak-
ink on his trip but 1t has long been
the idea Of the republican leaders that
he would make as many political adj
dresses as possible west of the Mis-
sissippi.
