CANON CITY NAY Be
MADE DIVISION POINT ON
DENVER & RIO GRAHDE

Strong intimations of important
changes in the division boundaries on
the Rio Grande, are contained in a
special dispatch from Denver. 1t says
that persistent rumor that will not
down is being circulated among the
railroad men in this city, and along
the entire system is that the company
intends to take the passenger termin-
al away from Grand Junction and
move it to Green River, Utah. making
the jump for passenger crews from
Ogden to Green River. the latter to
Glenwood Springs, Glenwood Springs
to Canon City. and Canon City to Den

runs about equal This would make
Salida suffer with Grand Junction.
and Glenwood Springs would gain
with Green River. If the change is
made it is said that it will cause the
moving of some fifteen families and
an equal number of single men from
their present homes to one or the
other of the two points. The recent
removal of the headquarters of the
division trainmaster and roadmaster
from HeIper to Green River seems to
give strength to the Pueblo
Leader.

self had come before it had been gem
orally learned that General Grant was
in the city, as his presence here had
been kept a secret.
Get physician quick, the general
is dying"
This telephone message, received at
the night desk of the Buckingham at
1880 o'clock last night, was the first
news.
A bellboy was despatched to the Of
fee of DR.. Abbey nearby, but the
physician was not at home. Mrs.
Grant was notified and, chafing at the
delay, she cried back Historically:
Get an ambulance. Get anybody"
The alarm was sent to police head
quarters, from which an ambulance
was dispatched. Calls were put in a;
random also for physicians in the
Fifth avenue district and within a few
minutes two had responded.
When the ambulance arrived, with
in four minutes OF the alarm, it was
said that General Grant probably was
dying. He was in too dangerous 4
condition to remove and the amb /
lance drove away.
At midnight the general died. In
the half hour previous the alarm Of
his condition had aroused all of
newspaper offices, in most OF which
the reports were regarded with eau
ton, in view of the fact that General
Grants presence here was not known.
Many newspaper men were on the
scene in few minutes, however, but
as none was allowed to go to the
apartment the exact state OF affairs
was a matter OF doubt until an end
was put to all when the hotel clerk
was heard to report over the teie-
phone.

The reason prompting my change OF

New York, April 12.-There was
universal sorrow today over the
Death at the Hotel buckingham OF
General Frederick Grant. The
nature OF his illness has not been
disclosed though the physicians
say he died of heart failure. Many
believe that when Grant was
seized with throat trouble a year
ago he feared it was cancer of the
throat, the same disease that kill
ed his father, and that the depres-
sion hastened his death. The
funeral will probably be Sunday
ar Monday.
