died in st. Joseph's hospital Tues
day night after an illness of eight
weeks. Death was due to heart trou-
bic. He came to ST. Paul in 1853

maintained a real estate and insur-
ance office here and had been COM
missioner since 1905. He once owned
four acres on which the West hotel
in Minneapolis now stands and also
had 100 acres at Kenwood parkway
in Minneapolis.
Washington, D. c., March =
There was a constant stream of cal
lers at the White House today. The
most of them were close political as
sociates of the president and they
dropped in at the executive Offices to
talk over matters in connection with
Mr.. Taft's western trip. In his
speeches to be delivered in Toledo to-
morrow night and in Chicago the fol-
lowing day the president will make
the first public utterances to be heard
from him since Colonel Roosevelt
made his formal announcement as
a candidate for the presidential NOM
ination. AS consequence the poll
ticians of both parties and all fac
tions are looking forward to the
speech with eager anticipation.
Although no announcement has
been made of subjects for the presi-
dents speeches, it is regarded as al
most certain that he will make clear
his own views on many of the doc
trines advocated by Colonel Roose-
welt in his speech in Columbus two
weeks ago. A reply to the whole
speech of Colonel Roosevelt is not
looked for, but it is the general opin-
ion here that the presidents views
in regards to the recall of court de-
ciisons will be made Enthusiastically
plain to the people before Mr.. Taft
leaves Chicago for home next Satur-
day night.
The speech in Toledo tomorrow
night is to be delivered at meeting
under the auspices of the Commerce
club of that city. This fact has led
to the conclusion here that the presi-
dent will avoid discussing big issues
of a purely political nature in his
Toledo address, as it has been his
custom in the past to avoid politics
