NEW NEWS OF YESTERDAY

BY E. J. Edwards

In the latter part OF June. 1901.
Commodore Alfred Van Santyoor,l
died In the luxuriously- fitted saloon
stateroom OF his private yacht, the
Clermont. He was then In his SD
year. He was a man OF imposing
physical presence. about six feet four
inches tall we'll proportioned. OF such
perfect vision that he did not have To
use eyeglasses. and the only impair
ment OF his physical qualities was a
slight deafness
He was called commodore because
he was the master OF much OF the
steamboat navigation on the Hudson
river. He was the successor OF Com
modore Vanderbilt In that vocation.
and he was on good terms with the
commodore and in most intimate per
sonal relations with the commodore's
son. William II. Vanderbilt. His ad-
vent into steamboating was a per
fectly logical evolution from his early
employment upon the Erie Canal.
where his father operated a consider.
able line OF canal boats.
Commodore Vanderbilt accumulated
a fortune OF about six million dollars.
and might have added a million TO Il

one hand and James J. Hill and J

dore Vanderbilt deemed IL expedient.
he could have sold a large block OF
railway stock AZ the time when. by
reason Of this struggle. prices had
abnormally advanced. and his profit
upon such sale would have amounted
To about a million dollars.
