which she was stricken about a year
ago. Her brother, Stephen Barton,
of Boston, was with her when she
died.
Miss Barton was born at oxford,
Mass, in 1921.
Clara Barton might properly be
called Florence Nightingale of Amer
lea" Like her British prototype, her
works of mercy were not confined to
her native land, but were carried even
into the Eastern hemisphere. She
will be written down in history as the
founder of the Red Cross in America,
but her powerful personality also
made an indelible impression upon
the international organization itself
through her active participation in
the periodical conferences at Geneva.
Carlsruhe, Rome. Vienna and st.
Petersburg.
Miss Barton was 40 years of age
when she first turned her attention to
the great works of humanity which
have made her name famous.
Her experience as a school teacher
and the organizer of public school sys.
TENS in New Jersey taught her meth.
odical habits and gave her the ex.
perience in executive work which
made her a commanding figure in the
direction of Red Cross affairs.
That organization was established
in America in 1881 and Miss Barton
was its president from that late until
1904. Before that time she had made
a name for herself by services on
battlefields, beginning in the civil
war and extending through the Fran
co-Prussian war. Congress recognized
her good offices in the first case by an
appropriation of $4,000 to be dis
bursed by her in searching for missing
men after the various great battles of
the war.
Work Becomes Extended.
Miss Barton's work became more
extended with the organization of the
American Red Cross and covered the
new field of catastrophes in time of
peace. She distributed relief to the
sufferers from the Johnstown flood
and went to Russia in 1892 to carry
food to the famine sufferers there.
In the following year she was min
istering to the destitute survivors of
the tidal wave which struck South
Carolina and Florida. In 1896 she was
aiding the Armenian families decimat-
ed by the Turks, and when yellow
fever appeared among the American
troops in Cuba following the battles
around Santiago, it was Clara Barton
who at the request of President Nc
Kinley, organized field hospitals and
personally spent her time on the bat
tie lines. Her last work of national
importance was in connection with
the great Galveston flood relief in
1900.
She resided for the last seven years
at her home at Glen Echo, Md, on the
banks of the upper Potomac. During
her life time she received many deco.
rations from foreign countries in rec.
ognition of her services to humanity
and her varied experiences have been
recorded in various forms in her
liberal contributions to literature,
mostly relating to the activities of the
Red Cross.

BROKER rs LUCKY.
Lichstern Will Clean Up a Million
in Wheat. 49,

Chicago, April 15.-After a years
bitter fighting. while awaiting favor
able developments in the wheat mar
ket, Adolph J. Lichstern now bids
fair to reap a million dollars, in prof
it's from his manipulation of May
wheat. u.s.. a%. - ~ss~4
About a year ago Mr.. Lichstern
was reported as having approximately
100000 bushels of May wheat. A
week ago he is supposed to have. had
nearly 20, ZOO, 900 bushels. His hold
ings meantime have varied between
$1,000, 900 and 10000, 900 bushels. On
this wheat he has been paying carry
ing charges that will approximate ST.
500 a day and vas in the hole $4,000
900. Mr.. Lichstern las year was fore
ing the fighting and giving no quarter.
This year he has been on the de-
fensive and has been forced to buy
continuously to keep the market at
a figure equal to that at which he first
contracted for his May wheat.
At a time when it appeared as if
nothing except the enlistment of most
unusual influences would help Mn.
Lichstern, there came the reports or
damage to the soft winter wheat in
the Ohio valley, aud prices started
aloft.
The advantage was grasped quick.
ly as it a. offered and Mr.. Lich.
stern began unloading the wheat he.
has been carrying through two sea.
sons, and which it looked, as though
he would have to carry for still an
other, for within sixty days the next
crop of May wheat will be coming in.

HEART FAILURE.
A FAILURE rs CAUSE

Wife and Nurse Alone With
Him When Vital Organ
Stopped.

New York, N. Y.-General Grant
Is dead. The news, flashed from the
apartments of Major General Freder-
lex Dent Grant, at the Hotel Buck
ingham sent a shock through the city
such as that which startled the whole
country upon the death of his father
81 years ago.
The news was far more sudden. 1t
came less than an hour after the first
alarm had been sounded that General
Grant was seriously i'll. The alarm
itself had come before it had been
generally learned that General Grant
was even in the city, al his pres
ence here had been kept a secret.
The cause of death was heart fail
ure following diabetes and attending
digestive disturbances.
Mrs. Grant and a nurse were alone
with the general when he died, there
having been no ~premonition OF his
sudden critical illness. The general
had been removed to the hotel from
st. Luke's hospital where, unknown
to the public generally, he had been
taken for treatment.
Major General Frederick Dent
Grant the eldest son of Ulysses s.
Grant the eighteenth president of the
United States, was born at st. Louis,
Mo, May 20, 1850. He was with his
father during a part OF the Civil war,
witnessed the capture of Forts Henry
and Donelson and went with his ia
theirs command through the Virginia
campaign. He witnessed also the
fights at Corinth, Vicksburg, Nash.
Vile and Petersburg.
After the war young Grant entered
West Point and was graduated in
1871. For a year he served as a civil
engineer for the Union Pacific rail
way and in 1872, accompanied Gen
eral Sherman on a trip to Europe.
He resigned his commission as col
onel in the army in 1881 and for a
number of years was engaged in va.
rious enterprises. He was appointed
minister to Austria by President Har-
rison in 1888 but resigned on the cleo
ton of Mr.. Cleveland to the presi.
dency. Under the reform administra-
ton of Major Strong he was one of

Washington, ID. G. = Radical re-
auctions in freight rates on wool from
western points to eastern destinations
were prescribed by the interstate com
merce commission. The commission
held existing rates on wool we're un-
reasonably high; that the blanket sys-

broken up and graded rates estab-
lished: that the rates on wool In bales
should be lower by about Is per cent
than those on wool in sacks and that
there should be q readjustment on
classification.
