JOSEPH PULITZER DEAD
eumbs to Attack Of Heart
Trouble

New York, Oct. 20. Joseph Pulitzer,
proprietor of the Now York World, died
of heart failure today on board his
yacht Liberty in the harbor of Charles
ton, S. c., after an illness of two days.
The news was received here in a tele-
gram from his secretary.
Mr.. Pulitzer, accompanied by his
younger son, Herbert, left New York
aboard his yacht October 20 intending
to take leisurely voyage to Jekyl is
land near Brunswick, Ca, where he had
winter home.
Aside from heavy cold Mr.. Pulitzer
was in his usual health when he left this
city. He was taken ill on Friday and
the yacht put into Charleston. His i'll
ness proving to be serious, a telegram
was sent to his wife who left New York
for Charleston yesterday, arriving short
ly before he died. The body will be
brought to New York tomorrow, when
funeral arrangements will be made.
For more than quarter of a century
Joseph Pulitzer had been one of the lead
ing figures in American journalism.
Born in Hungary in 1S47 and educated
there, he came to this country in 1868,
enlisted in the union army, and served
as cavalryman until the end of the
war when he settled in St. Louis. which
was for many years to be the scene of
his journalistic activities. His early
newspaper training was as reporter
and afterwards city editor, managing
editor and part proprietor of the West
liche Post, edited by Carl Schurz. He
bought the st. Louis Dispatch in 1878
and united it with the Post as the Post
Dispatch, which under his management
became in few years one of the best
known and most widely circulated jour-
mails of the section.
Mr.. Pulitzer's entry into New York
journalism occurred in 1888, when he
bought the World, then paper of small
circulation. Its circulation and pres
tige grew rapidly and under his general
direction it has continued it's wide infu-
ence. A building to house it which he
erected in 1890 on Park row was, until
overtOpped by the skyscrapers of later
years, one of the most striking of New
York's Office buildings.
Mr.. Pulitzer's sight began to fail him
in the late eighties and after time he
became totally blind. Ever since, he
had been partial invalid, but up to the
last had kept general supervision over
his Newspaper properties here and in St.
Louis and taken pronounced interest in
civic affairs.
Much of his wealth has been given for
educational purposes. He donated 81, :
900, 900 to Columbia College to establish
and maintain a college of journalism
and established scholarships in that in
stitution for deserving boy graduates of
New York public schools.
During his residence in Missouri Mr..
Pulitzer served as a member of the
Legislature and was a delegate from
that state to the democratic national
convention in 1880. He was elected to
the 10th Congress from a New York
district but resigned after few months
service.
Mr.. Pulitzer's eldest son married Miss
Frederick Webb, the daughter of DR..
and Mrs. w. Seward Webb of Shell
burne Farms, VT.
