 Heart Failure

Hot Springs Va. July 11.--Melville [ died here early today of heart fail ure.
 He had been at his summer home here for sometime. Members of the family and friends say he had been gradually declining for months. but his illness had been more marked during the last few weeks
 1 Three days ago he suffered from an l Liberated tooth and the shock of treat ment was fatal. He became unconscious soon afterward and was only aroused once or twice before he died one of moned hurriedly from New York, ar rived at the deathbed. MT.

  Vile 10. Ingalls,, Jr., and Fay Ingalls, of New York, George H. Ingalls, of Chi cago and Albert s. Ingalls, of Cleve- land.
 No Statement Made
 No statement was made here today on behalf of the family as to the ex- tent of MT. Ingalls, estate. It was said there is a will and his death having been anticipated his affairs had been set in order
 It was said he withdrew from all active business connections sometime ago.
 Until two years ago he was chair man of the board of directors of the Big Four railroad the transportation line with which his name was most closely identified, although he was a powerful figure in what Is generally known as the Vanderbilt group of rail roads.
 Besides his home here he had a home in Cincinnati and new one In Washington, D. c.
 Born in Maine
 MT Ingalls, was in his seventy-sec- ond year. He was born at Harrison, Me, in 1S42; was reared on farm and educated at Bowdoin and liar yard. He was graduated a lawyer and began practice at Grey. Me, but soon removed to Boston and in 1867 was elected a member of the state senate.
 His career as railroad man and financier began if 1870, when he be- came president. and a year later re- ceiver of the old Indianapolis, Cincin- natl and Lafayette railroad. In the re- organizations he created the Cincin- nati, Indianapolis, St. Louis and Chi cago, and later consolidated it with other railroads forming the Big Four system, of which he was chairman. He was president of the Chesapeake and Ohio from 1888 to 1900; was dem ocratic candidate for mayor of Cin- cinnati in 1903. and president of the National Civic Federation in 1905.

believed that Clark was at his zenith in i5lz. and can never show the strength With the people that he edveioped then, when he entered the convention with more delegates pledged to his standard than any other candidate and registered a majority of the convention for nine ballots. On the other hand. Underwood was then just appearing in the political Skies as a star of the first magnitude His friends declare he will be a very much more formidable candidate in 1916, than he was in 1912, and they expect the business as we'll as the farming interests or the country to turn him in 1916 if the contest for the nomination Is to be an open one.
 But Tn view of the elimination of the President from any cause, voluntary or otherwise. other candidates are spoken Of. Favorite sons from many states are sticking up their rods and will keen them up, on the theory that "accideats will happen" Albert Sidney Burlesor has been mentioned" Ollie James Of Kentucky has his admirers. Many have been Spoken of," but SC far as can be learned no one has suggested Thomas R. Marshall of Indiana.
 In the meantime the republicans are out with statement in which they proceed to prove by recent events that they will capture the House of Representatives this fall. While democrats do not believe that there Is any great danger of such a thing It Is admitted that should the party suf- the great reverses at the polls, the Presi- dents prestige will suffer therefrom If this happens 1t may influence the cam paign of 1916 very materially
 In the meantime 1t is expected that Colonel Roosevelt will continue his role of mauling the republican party over the head with a club. while the democrats walk away wit hthe gate receipts.

Cecil Gaston. Dr. Gaston was in his shirt sleeves working over the unconscious Anna, on whose face already was the stamp of the great destroyer
 For hours the young physician labored with Mrs. Searight aided by Mrs Yother and her two daughters-in- law. and at last it was decided to trans fuse some blood into the dying girls veins. Mrs. Searight offered her own blood and the apparatus necessary for the transfusion was sent for in Bir- mingham. It arrived too late as Anna died at o'clock last night of what pr. Gaston stated was a total deprecia- ton of the tissues. In other words she was worn out like an old machine.
 And now they are only six Doyles left-only five dependent on the mar row shoulders of John-but John must find a job, even before he is able to support what is left of his family
