Max Weyl. one of Americas foremost
landscape artists. died after an Illness
lasting four months, at his home at 1910
r street. at 4:15 o'clock this morning.
Ever since the earliest days of his artis-
tic career Mr.. Weyl has been closely
identified with the life and growth of
Washington. for he was essentially an
American artist, and the majority Of the
subjects treated by him during his life
time were inspired by scenes in and
about this city His name by artists. is
always associated with Rock Creek Park.
a spot in which he took especial delight.
Beginning his career as an artist forty
seven years ago. at comparatively late
period in life, his inherent ability and
tireless efforts eventually won him high
recognition here and in the other art
centers of the country. He was self
taught at first and guided only by an
appreciation of nature

simultaneously with his success as a
eweler, the artistic tendencies which
al evidenced themselves in his BOY
cd were famed into flame by an
Etist friend who earnestly urged that
Nj: Weyl give expression to his early
bent. The latter eagerly followed his
advice and the resulting fruit studies
then the fashion of the time, formed
the early efforts of one who was later
TO climb TO better things. for il was
but a brief space of time before Mr.
WeyI turned to the outdoor world
with the answering instinct Of the
landscape artist
So it happened that in 1870 the late
5. H. Kaufman, for many years presi-
dent of the board of trustees of the Cor
coran Art Gallery, noticed in the window
Of an unpretentious jewelry shop small
painting of surprising merit Entering to
inquire the name of the painter. ne was
amazed to learn thar ii was the crea-
ton of the proprietor. and the subse
quent purchase of the picture started Mt
Neyl on his career as a professional ar
list. Mr.. Weyl later in life invariably
attributed large part of his success to
the sympathetic encouragement and IN
failing interest of Mr. Kaufman.
Abandons Business for Art.
Yet it was not until several years
had passed that the jewelry business
was completely abandoned and Mr.
Weyl felt justified in following the
path in which his whole heart was alb
sorbed. Then the desire became a pos
sihillty and in 1850 he went abroad for
the experience to ne gained there He
remained a year and then. though
urged by many TO take up the art of
the Venetian school. returned to Amer
lea to devote his life to picturing the
outdoor beauty of his adopted land
From then until today his success has
steadily increased. and for long he has
been regarded as one of America s
foremost landscape artists.
Mr.. Neyl was a member of the Society
OF Washington Artists Among the
awards which came to him may be men
TONED the first prize of the Society of
American Artists in 1900 and the Parscn
prize of that society in 1904.
Two of his works. Lovers Lane" and
Approaching Night" are now hung in
the Corcoran Art Gallery. and in 1907 a
picture entitled An Indian Summer Day
was presented by those who knew the
artist most intimately to the National
Gallery-an act regarded as adding a val
liable asset to that institution and con-
ferring a substantial and well merited
honor upon Mr.. Weyl.

The French Statement

Paris, oct. 2S-The official an
nouncement given out at the war Of
flee this afternoon says
"on our left wing the very consid-
cradle German forces. whose presence
was reported yesterday, have continu-
ed violent attacks in the entire region
between the sea and the canal of La
Bassee.
Generally speaking the situation Of
the allied forces has been maintained.
If the allies had to yield at certain
points they have advanced at others.
The enemy also has evidenced great
activity in the region of Arras and on
the River Somme. TO the north and
to the south Of this stream we have
progressed, particularly in the region
Of Rosieres.
In Sauterre, in the region of Yer
dun and in the region of Pont Au

successes.
''On the rest of the front there is
nothing to report.
ITO sum up: The enemy appears
to be undertaking, asong the major
part of the front and particularly be
tween the North sea and Disc, a new
effort making use Of corps made up
of new organizations. These are com

Washington, Oct 20. All efforts to
adjourn congress sine die failed again
today and the house and senate, by adj
jcurning over to noon tomorrow, put
off the end of the session at least an
other day. Talk Of President Wilson
exercising his executive privilege and

fcjal circles, but nothing material
lied.
Probabilities that President Wilson
would exercise his constitutional
power and adjourn congress, inasmuch
as congress itself is unable to agree
on ending the session, we're considered
today by administration leaders after
the president had conferred with
Speaker Clark and Senators Kern and
Overman.
Speaker Clark said he was sure both
houses, now sitting without quorum,
would be unable to agree on adjourn
ment, and he believed the country
would endorse such action by the
president. In the senate there was q
possibility that the filibuster Of SEN
ators from the cotton states might be
abandoned, but in the house those
champions of cotton relief were re
ported ready to block adjournment
resolutions on a point Of no quorum.
