CINE expert of the country today, re-
Gently placed his order for six cylin-

Rome, March 31.-J. Pierpont Nor
gan, the great American financier, ex-
pired at the Grand Hotel at IL: 05
this afternoon Rome time. The end
came peacefully while Morgan was
still unconscious.

the strain incident to his appearance
last winter before the Pujo money
trust committee in Washington, &C
cording to statement made today by
DR.. NJ. Allen Starr, the eminent nerve
specialist attending the banker.
Morgan passed away after week
of critical illness. He has been un-

The Bemidji daily pioneer. [volume] (Bemidji, Minn.) 1904-1971, 1913-03-31

broke forth from the thousands Of
investors in the United States and in
Europe who put their money into
these securities, had been thorn in
Mr. Morgan's side, and his chief am
bition in the years that followed was
to see the steel securities in such pos.
ition in the market that his most bit
ter critics would be forced to concede
that he built the great trust on sub
stantial foundation .
AS an example of business capacity
of a remarkable kind, Mr.. Morgan
was almost without parallel. He was
as capable as any of the Rothschilds
in the money line and his achieve
ments as an industrial organizer sur
passed any similar feats performed
by other operators in the United
States or abroad. Among the con-
crete results of Mr.. Morgan's financ-
ial genius were the reorganization Of
the Buffalo and West Shore, and it's
lease to the New York Central; the
reorganization Of the Chesapeake and
Ohio; the rearrangemento of the Great
Southern, and the reorganization of
the Erie. = His influence was also
materially felt in the Pacific system.
Some of the achievements which he
made incidents to his money and rail-
road business are the present effic-
iency of the japan and China carry
ing trade, the consolidation of the
Western Union Telegraph and the
American Bell Telephone company,
the combination of the coffin produc-
ing and steel industries and the
launching of the Edison process OF
magnetic iron ore separation.

London, March Sit was evident
at the opening of the London market
that the possibilities of Morgan's
death had been discounted effectual-

there were early recoveries. AS was
anticipated, the announcement Of the
death of the American financier was
not accompanied by any serious re-
action. .....:s ~.

A NORTHERNER' SUCCESS
 DOWN IN FLORIDA Mayor Thomas E. WeIles of Pensa- cola, Summering Near Old Mystic, May Speak at County Fair.

It is probable that former Mayor Thomas E. Welles of Pensacola, Fla, president of the West Florida and southern Alabama Fair association, who arrived the other day at his sum- mer home near Old Mystic, to remain until after Charter Oak in September, will be one of the guests of the New London county agricultural society at the annual fair, September 1-3.
 Captain Welles is the leading bus mess and commercial booster of West Florida. He owns big fish business, 29 sailing vessels 35 racing horses, three automobiles-he bought one of them in Boston last summer-a third or more of a wholesale grocery bus mess in Pensacola that brings him in $10,000 a year without his going near it, a couple of cotton plantations in Alabama, a farm in that state and a farm in Connecticut. He is worth about $75.000 and his income is some where around $50.000 year
 In person the captain is the double of William Wait Beckwith of this city. He is a bright, witty talker on a va riety of subjects.
 Secretary Greenman and Rutherford c. Plaut said Friday that they had reason to believe the big F'loridan would make a short speech from the judges stand one day of the fair. He was born in New London and went to Pensacola in 1879.

LYME's GRAND OLD MAN.
James L. Raymond, Active at 85, l!
 Expert on Cattle and Also Politics.

Concerning a figure we'll known to all south county men J. R. Warren writes to the New London Day this eulogy:
 Probably every town in the state has it's Gladstone, or grand old man" thit it is proud of. Hon. James L. Raymond of Lyme is probable one of the largest owners of real estate in New London county besides having several hundred acres in MiddleseX county. MT Raymond is S5 years of age, but is very active and drives from one farm to another daily superin tending the work of his farm hands, Much of his time is occupied in cattle trading People come to Mir Ray monds home from far and near in search of new cattle of all descriptions. He has been in the business all his life and probably no man in Connecticut is his peer as a judge of horned cattle. Besides all this he has a reputation for fair dealing and he has the con ffdence of an extensive patronage. No one ever complains of any unfairness that trades with James L. Raymond and his word goes everywhere. His hospitality is unbounded. Traders com ing to his home have always been i'm vited to a bountiful table and no far away patron need return to his home hungry.
 While MT. Raymond has been a great success in business he has not been too busy to take hand in politics. as many New London county politicians well know. The democratic party of Lyme has had strong opposition from MT Raymond, who is a staunch re- publican. He has represented his town in the general assembly, several times was senator from the old Ninth dis trict member of the constitutional convention (and favored increased rep resentation from the cities). He has also been county commissioner. The past few years he has given up his in terest in politics and devotes his time to his business interests and is enjoy ing his declining years at the ancestral farm so pleasantly located oa Syca- more hill in Lyme. where he counts his acres by the thousands.
