Physicians Statement.
The physicians who We're In attend
ance on Mr.. Morgan Issued the fol-
lowing statement today:
when Mr.. Morgan left New York
he was a very tired man, physically
and mentally. Digestion and nutri-
tion were impaired. 1t was hoped that
his usual trip to Egypt would be of
great benefit, giving him rest and
building up the nervous force. espe-
cially as he had no organic disease.
His appetite, however, failed and con-
sequently his strength and weight did
not improve.
"Mr. Morgan contracted a severe
cold while IN Egypt which weakened
him. A state of mental depression
developed. He arrived at Cairo In a
very run down condition. but during
three weeks In Cairo he improved
mentally and physically. his powers
of concentration and memory show
ing no impairment. The trip to Rome
did not fatigue him and ~ contiued
to gain slowly for ten days.
A Week Before His Death.
"a week before his death his
strength began to fail. He was put
TO bed Wednesday afternoon. March
26.) He became delirious and ex-
treme exhaustion followed. This con-
tinued until Sunday evening. when he
passed into a state of coma. lie died
at 1905 p. m. Monday"
Among the almost innumerable OF
coincidence received by Herbert J..
Satterlee. son-in-law Of the late j.
Pierpont Morgan. one Of the most
touching was that from the German
emperor, the text of which has been
cabled to the son Of the dead finan-
cier.
Mr. Morgan's pet dog, of imperial
Chinese breed, without which he never
travelled and which he kept as his
constant companion n-his apartments

death. refusing to eat and displaying
evident signs of distress.
