man Lurton, associate justice Of the
United States Supreme Court, died here
this morning at O'Clock. With him
at the end were his wife and his son
Horace Lurton, jr. The cause of death
was heart disease, from which Justice
Lurton had been suffering for some
years.
He came TO this resort ten days ago
hoping a rest would prove beneficial
and had been under the care of Dr.
Walter Reynolds, of this city. Several
days ago Mr.. Lurton's condition took a
turn for the worse, and Dr.. Sterling
Russin, Of Washington. the family ply
sician, was sent for. For time he
seemed to improve. but last night Jus
tice Lurton had a serious sinking spell
from which he failed to rally. He
was seventy years old.
Arrangements have been made to
take the body to Washington to-mor-
row on a special car, starting from
here at 2:2O p. m. Burial will be at
Clarksville, Tenn, on Wednesday.

From Tho Tribune Bureau
Washington, July T.. The death Of
Justice Lurton creates the first vacancy
on the Supreme bench which President
Wilson has been called upon to fill.
Some believe he may name eX-Presi-
dent Taft. Those close to the
President, however, scout the idea
that he will offer the vacant JUS
ticeship to Judge Taft or to any
other Republican, contendng that the
President will feel obliged to name a
Democrat, because, even should he do
so, the court would stand six Rcpub-
lcans to three Democrats.
Among those who are being discussed
this evening as likely to be considered
for the vacancy are Attorney General
McReynolds. the Secretary of the In
terror. Franklin X. Lane; Frederick X.
Lehman, a lifelong Democrat, who re-
Gently served the administration as
American delegate TO the Niagara faIIs

ton. who were natives OF the Biue
Grass State. His father years ago vas

left medicine for the ministry and vas
ordained a priest in the Protestant

Judge Lurton's early education was
received from private instructors, but
IN 1859 he went to Chicago and on
tered Douglas University, ater the
University of Chicago. The Civil
War brought halt to his collegiate
training, for at the first call young
Iurton hurried south and offered ms
services. He was enlisted in the 35th
Tennessee, commanded by Colonel h. j..
Hill, and was made sergeant major
In February, 1862, he was dls-
charged on account Of ill-health, but
