 Long Time.
DIES AT SISTERS HOME

Cleveland, O., Mar. 25.-M. Stanley Robison, president and owner of the Cardinals National League baseball team of St. Louis, died suddenly of blood poisoning here at 5:30 a. n. The news first reached St. Louis in a long-distance telephone message to Roger Bresnahan, manager of the Cardinals
 Robson was in St. Louis a week ago, apparently in greatly improved health, after a trip to Panama and Cuba. His death occurred at the home of his sister-in-law, Mrs. Frank de Haas Robison.
 Manager Bresnahan stated that he knew of no injury that could have caused blood poisoning. Whether this affection was caused by an operation was not stated in the early telegrams. For nearly two years Robison's health had been poor.
 MT. Robinson had been in ill health for the past two years, a decline set ting in after the death of his brother, iohh l'S iiodS A-JblilSOii. lOi lllSi president of the Cardinals.
 MT Robinson was in St Louis last week, but came to Cleveland to look over street car interests he has here.
 It was his intention to return to St. Louis Saturday for the first game of the spring series between the Car dinals and the Browns. MT. Robison has been prominently connected with the management of the Cardinals since 1899. He was born at Pittsburg, Pa, on March 30, 1859. Baseball was his fayorite outdoor pastime in his youth and when a student at the Northwest ern University at Evanstown, H., from 1877 to 1880 inclusive, he be- came so expert that he was made cap tain of the team which represented that institution in the league com posed of the Northwestern, Racine, Chicago and Wisconsin universities.
 His interest in the national game did not cease with his college days and later in life he became identified along with his brother and business associate, F. De Haas, with the Cleve- land club In 1899 the Cleveland franchise was transferred to St. Louis
