raOgementS
10y Associated Press.)

New York, N. Y. Jan. 24.-David
Graham Phillips died in Bellevue hos
pital late tonight, a victim of Fitz-
hugh Coyle Goldsborough, an eccen-
trio and emotional musician, who shot
the novelist down yesterday for a
fancied grudge, then killed himself.
Phillips fought valiantly to live, but
six bullet wounds were too much
even for his tenacity. He died at
11:05 o'clock.
He was conscious up to within a
quarter of an hour of his death, which
occurred at just five minutes past II
o'clock. At the bedside were his
sister, Mrs. Caroline Frevert, his
brother, Harrison w. Phillips, his per.
sonal physician, DR.. Eugene Fuller
and DR.. Donovan of Bellevue. The
immediate cause of death was hem
orrhage from the right lung, which
had been pierced by one of the steel
clad bullets from Goldsborough's au-
tomato pistol.
Up to 8 o'clock the novelist was
resting quietly and both physicians
and relatives were hopeful of the
outcome. He had been conscious all
day and had received visitors, among
them his sister, his brother, Senator
Beveridge of Indiana and several
writer's of note. Their visits were
extremely brief but all who came went
away in hopeful frame OF mind.
About 8 o'clock tonight he took a
turn for the worse and although the
surgeons did everything in theirepow.
er the end was inevitable.
The physicians met directly after
the death and decided to request the
coroner to dispense with an autopsy.
1t Is believed this request will be
granted though an autopsy is the
usual thing in all homicidal cases.
Harrison Phillips announced that
Senator Beveridge will have charge
OF the funeral arrangements.
Beveridge returned to Washington
this afternoon but probably will come
back to New York in the morning.
IN the meantime it is thought that
Phillips body will be taken either to
the Princeton club or the National
Arts club.

As soon as te rural free delivery

the pay of the rural carriers from

Chairman Weeks Of the postoffice

it.
The house passed an amendment
providing that after July 1, 1911, the
carriers should receive a salary not

An attempt to substitute Official

and gems from the home of Mrs. Vim.
Thaw, Jr., on the north side last night.
Every pawnbroker in the city has
been furnished a description of the
stolen goods, and notification of the
robbery with description of the goods
also has been sent to every city in the
country. The list of articles as furn-

of which is given as $l7 900. No value
is named for the other articles individ-

casket in Mrs. Thaw's room, and the

journeymen were sleuths in overalls. A

Washington, D. c., Jan. 24.-The
house today passed the postohice ap-
preparation bill, carrying about $751;
100000 with no votes in the mega
tive.
The postoffice committee Of the
house, the postmaster general and
Others higher up," including by in.
ference the president OF the United
States, came in for scoring at the
hands of members of the house during
consideration of the bill.
The debate reached its height when
Representative Sisson of Mississippi,
declared with vigor:
"The mail service all over The
United States is in h Of fix
to use a strong expreseion-and this
house should fix the responsibility
where it belongs. Some say it is
the committee, some say 1t is the de-
partment, and some say 1t is the pres
ident. The department has declined
to spend the money appropriated for
additional rural free delivery routes
and is going to turn back a surplus
of $1,70O,O00 from this service. For
sooth, upon what hath these Caesars
