EDWARD MORRIS DEAD
Head of Chicago Meat Packing
Company Leaves Millions.

Chicago. Nov Edward Morris,
president Of Morris e. Co., meat pack
ers. died at his home to-day after an i'll
ness of more than a year.
Mr.. Morris was born in Chicago forty
seven years ago and was the eldest son
of the late Nelson Morris, pioneer pack
err He suffered a nervous breakdown
about year ago. The seriousness Of
his condition became known last week
upon the arrival Of his brother. Ira
Nelson Morris, who hurried 10 Chicago
from Italy in response to catlegram.
Mr.. Morris leaves a wife, two sons and
two daughters.
In the will of Nelson Morris the build
ing Of the vast fortune was attributed
largely to the genius and energy of Ed
ward, who began his business career at
an age when most of his companions
were barely out of knickerbockers
He was only II years old when he
entered the office of his father as an em-
ploye. SO keen was his interest and
so great was the aptitude he displayed
in business affairs that even his father
was astonished.
Mr.. Morris's estate is estimated at be-
tween s3O,000,OO0 and $50,00O,oOO. He
was credited with being the largest in
dividual owner Of bank stock in this
city. He was a liberal contributor to
many charities, and it is said that IT was
his custom to contribute TO charities
each wear an amount equal to the sum
expenGed for members Of his family.
Mr.. Morris married in 1890 Helen l..
Swift. daughter Of the founder of swift
& Co, packers.
When Nelson Morris died, in 1907, it
was found that his will put the manage
mert of the entire estate into the HANDS
of Edward as managing trustee. Inc
estate was to be tied up FOR twenty
wears. remaining undistributed and en-
tirely under the management or the
mana ging trustee The value of the es-
tate was said TO be between siOOO0,OOo
and $4,000. COO, including property out
side the state. When the will was pro-
bated the property in this state was esti-
mated at 500, 900.
The plan of the elder Morris was not
carried out, as the heirs other than Ed
ward retained counsel to contest the WILL
and a compromise was reached under the
terms Of which the estate was divided
into five equal parts. one each going TO
the widow and the four children The
two big Morris stOckyards properties
by the division fell TO Ira y. Morris and
his two sisters. but Edward bought them
