New York. March 31.-J. Pierpont
Morgan is dead. He died at 12.05
Rome time. This announcement was
made by the offices of j. p. Morgan
& Co, today.
The Morgan Offices at the corner of
Broad and Wan streets We're closed,
this morning. On the front doors was
pasted this notice:
j. T. Morgan died at Rome, Italy,
at 1906 o'clock"
Henry p. Dawson, a member of the
house of Morgan, made the announce
ment. He said merely that he had re-
ceiyed a cable that the financier had
passed away, shortly after noon. Mr..
Dawson had planned to go abroad
sometime this week, but it is thought
probably that this trip will be post
poned.
Coineident with Mr. Morgan's death
ii became known that he had sus-
tanned q serious attack before his de-
parture, for Europe but had rallied sc
rapidly that it was not considered a
forerunner to fatal illness and was
known only TO his most intimate
friends.
For many years Mr.. Morgan spent
abroad, hut on this trip for the first
time he severed all connection with
business affairs and permitted his
partners to shoulder all responsibility
for their conduct. 1t was the first in
stance of his taking such complete
rest since he entered the banking
business in this city before the Civil
War.
Prominent bankers in this CITY said,
this morning, that they did not pre-
diet any decided unfavorable effect on
the stock market by reason of Mr.,
Morgan's death. The reason of this,
they explained was that the recur-
rent rumors of his serious illness had
prepared the market for any possibili-
ty and enabled those engaged in
market operations to prepare for just
such a situation
