Ambassador Reid Died Sunday Moo

Ambassador Reid Died Sunday Noon.
London, Dec. 16.-WhIteIaw Reid,
the American ambassador to Great
Britain since 1905, died at his London
residence, Dorchester House, shortly
after noon Sunday from pulmonary
oedema. The end was quite peaceful.
Mrs, Reid and their daughter, Mrs.
John Hubert Ward, were at the bed
side.
The ambassador had been uncon-
scious since o'clock in the morning
and at intervals during the previous
twehty-four hours he had been slight
ly dellrious as a result Of the drugs
administered to induce sleep.
Sir Thomas Barlow, physician to
the King, who was called in last week
when Mr.. Reids Illness became acute,
and his regular physician, DR.. vii.
liam Hale White, issued the follow
ing bulletin as to the cause of death:
"a fortnight ago the American am
bassador had a slight bronchial at
tack similar to others from which
he had suffered at considerable In
tervals. On Wednesday last asthma
supervened and the asthmatic parox-
ysms became very severe, leading to
extreme exhaustion.
1t was hoped that he might rally,
as no pneumonia symptoms had ap-
peared. With difficulty the paroxysms
of asthma were got under control
but Sunday morning the exhaustion
became extreme and he died from
pulmonary oedema at 1910 p. m"
The Hon. John Hubert Ward, who
with his wife had been at Dorches'
ter House continually since the am
bassador's condition became serious
notified the staff of the embassy
when the patient began to sink, and
when death came he sent word tc
the King and Queen at Buckingham
Palace, the Queen Mother Alexandra
at Sandringham and the officials al
the court.
Almost Immediately the King SEN
his equerry Sir Harry Legge, to eX
press the condolences Of himself ant
the Queen. During the afternoon mes
sages conveying the #armest sympa
thy were received from the Queer
Mother Alexandra and other mem
bers of the royal family, court OF
ficials, members of the government
and of the various embassies an
legations, while many who had hear
the news of the ambassadors death o
who had seen the flags at half mas
on Dorchester House, called at tn
embassy.
A wireless message was also sent I
ogden Reid, son of the ambassador
y who left New York Saturday in tn
hope of reaching his fathers bedsid
before death.
The body will be sent home an
probably will be inferred in Sleep
Hollow. but the details will not b
decided upon until some communic
tion is received from Ogden Reid an
Il is learned what action the Britis
government may desire to take. Mr.
Reid hopes to sail on Saturday mex
