ILLNESS.
EMPEROR OF FINANCE
ONLY HIS IMMEDIATE FAMILY
KNEW OF HIS FATAL
ATTACK.

Western Newspaper Union News Service. n
New York, March 31.-J. Pierpont
Morgan is dead. He died at 1906.
Rome time. This announcement was
made by the offices Of ]. P. Morgan
& Co. today.
Announcement of the death was
not made to the awaiting newspaper
men for some time after the end
came. the information being held up
until private cables could be sent to
the London and New York houses of
Morgan.
The end came peacefully, while
Morgan was still unconscious.
Herbert L. Satterlee, Mrs. Satter.
lee. daughter of the financier, Prof.
Bastianelli, Doctors Starr and Dixon
and other members of the Morgan
party were at the bedside, but for
hours before his death the banker
gave no sign Of consciousness.
His daughter, Mrs. Satterlee, visit
ed Morgan's bedside at II a. m. and
again near noon. Her father was then
unconscious and she remained but a
moment.
Throughout the day the Satterlee's
and other members of the Morgan
party remained in the adjoining room.
awaiting the end, which the physi-
clans told them was not far off.
Morgan's collapse was attributed to
the strain incident upon his appear
ance last winter before the Pujo
money trust" committee in Washing
ton. according to the statement of DR..
M. Allen Starr, the eminent nerve
specialist, who was attending the H.
nancier.
During the day messengers from
King Victor Emanuel, Pope Plus and
the British, German and Greek en-
basies. called at the Grand hotel to
inquire after Morgan's health.
At the hour when Morgan's pulse
was 140 and his temperature 1O4, his
respiration was 48 and the doctors
said his death might be matter of
only hours.
Morgan passed away after one
week of critical illness and he was
for the most part unconscious since
last Wednesday. The last words he
uttered were said on that day when
he aroused himself and asked that
his legs be massaged, a treatment
that before had relieved him when he
suffered from nervous disorders.
Early in February, while Morgan
was making trip up the Nile to his
excavations in specially constructed
boat, he was attacked by acute fndi-
gestion and lapsed into a state of
coma in which he remained for twen-
ty-four hours.
The sudden end Of his Nile trip
was great disappointment to Nor

The Rex Theatre didn't have a

Postmaster Williamson did not an

new building-because he is still
guessing. like the balance of US.
The town clock might have given
more than two strokes when the In

but it wasn't necessary.
The editors birthday anniversary
didn't come on that dsy-but the
next.
Nothing unusual happened to a
certain physicians tenth anniversary
Of his wedding day-but he didn't
raise row about it.
The o G. Sprouse Co. didn't throw
hundred dollars worth of goods
out Of the window. but waited until
Spturday-and Ed Gray got a suit
'of clothes in the scramble.
The drawings for the Carnegie Ii
v8Gary didn't come-but they were

Scotland.
The Moguls ought to have won
that a to 8 game with 0wensboro-

but justcame TO town both days to

WHY NOT ROCK IsLANDs

A meeting is to be held in Daven-
port next Wednesday night to decide
on the feasibility OF holding the an
nuaI Tri-City Auto Dealers show, in
view of the destruction OF the Daven-
port Coliseum. Immediately follow
ing the Coliseum fire the suggestion
was made in The Argus that the roller
rink in this city might be available for
this purpose. and 1t would seem proper
az this time TO make some local move
70 have the advantages presented by
this city discussed at the forthcoming
meeting in Davenport
While IL Is argued by some that the
rink might prove too small. and that
the same fault was found with the Col
iseum during the last year that the
exhibit was held there. nevertheless
II later the building had not been re-
duced TO ashes the show would doubt
less have been held there as usual
The Rock Island rink viii accommo-
date practically as much floor space as
the Coliseum. and II IL Is not large
enough il could probably be enlarged
for the purpose.
Why not look into the matter, in
any event.

7 gentine packers. and having an expen-
sive refrigerating and packing plant
1 in Europe it was necessary to keep up
I its exports or lose the investments In
these plants.
As long as there were free ranges
/ in the United States the packers here
had plenty of meat for export and
could hold the European trade against
the Argentine meat But the western
ranges are being cut up into small
| farms, and the resulting diminishing
supply of beef cattle is strikingly seen
in the figures. We have now in this
country about 36.o00.o00 beef cattle
Last year the department experts esti-
mated there were 100000 such cat
tie. Two years ago there were 3D.
500. 200. and when the census was
taken in 1910 the count was 100000.
On the other hand Argentine now
has %, 600, 900 meat cattle, and, because
of the scantiness OF population, be-
fore the ranges begin to be cut up into
small farms il is estimated that that
country will be able to produce an
nually 100000 900 head of beef cattle.
The switch of the European imports
of beef from the United States to the
Argentine, follows closely upon the
foregoing figures. In 1905 this coun-
try sent $4,000 cattle and 111.000 tons
of chilled beef to Europe. That ex-
port has fallen off annually, until 1t
is now a negligible factor in our for
eign trade. But in 1901 Argentine sent
$4,000 quarters of chilled beef to
Europe; in 1905, 100000 quarters; IN
1912, 100000 quarters.
In 1908 the American packers fore
saw the outcome of this trade war and
invaded Argentine themselves. Swift
& Co. sought control of LaPlata Cold
Storage company. The next year the
National Packing company, the Ar
mour and Morris interests, bought an
other big Argentine plant. The real
invasion began, however, in 1911,
when the Americans had greatly in
creased their investments. With usual
trust methods they conquered their
Argentine competitors in a price cut
ting war that gave England cheap
beef for a while. The war ended in a
"gentlemen's agreement" to divide
the trade. Since then the Americans
have greately increased their plants,
ard now control 90 per cent of the
business.

trolls so per cent of the export bust
ness-enough TO fix prices-and II
is hardly TO be expected that the trust
will cut its Argentine prices much
below its American prices.
This seems to leave Australia and
South Africa as the only hopes left
TO the American consumers. But even
more disquieting news comes from
these countries. especially from Aus
tralia. where the Chicago beef pack
ers have already made their entrance
into the trade. The American trust
is in a fair way to control the entire
meat production of the world, leaving
all peoples on earth, so far as this
single necessity is concerned, at its
mercy.
The absorption of the beef export
trade from the Argentine is a typical
example OF the daring imagination and
grasp of world conditions possessed
by the American trust magnate- The
entrance of the beef trust into Argen-
tine WAS probably not due to any
apprehension on the part of the trust
magnates that free trade in meat was
likely TO come. II was because, due
TO a dwindling meat supply in the
United States. the trust was losing
its European export trade to the Ar

Young Mrs. Hathorne. recently mar

Chenoworth was big. handsome

he seemed unconscious. He was ia
vorite with women. but bestowed his

in with, and only a keen insight into
the nature of the softer sex and an
able diplomacy kept him out of trou-

pass through more affairs of the heart
without blame than any other man in
America. Replying to his question,
Mrs. Hathorne said:
The heroine is remarkable wo-
man. She married man whose char
acter was far inferior to hers. They
had scarcely passed the honeymoon
when he began TO show by his manner
that he was becoming tired of her.
Then he began to pay attention to an
other woman. What would wife nat
urally do under such circumstances?
Upbraid the husband. of course, and
thus drive him away from her and into
the arms of her rival. What did this
woman do? Without showing any dis
trust of her husband she gave him
every facility to be with his new at
traction. She even planned to have
the two go abroad together. After n
long absence from his wife he began
to realize that after all he loved her

THAT RECENT MExIcAN ELECTION

The insignificant vote at the Mex
lean presidential election that is at the
bottc OF all the pending compiled
tons may have been due TO indiffer-

genial an occupation among Mexicans
as fighting. J. is easier 10 get men
TO take their rifles and join a revolu-
tionary leader than to get them to go
TO the polls. Bullets have a fascination
that ballots have not. The civic spir-
II of the people is not highly deyel-
oped. and il is entirely credible that
