ALDRICH
CALLED TO BEYOND
IN new YORK HOME

NEW YORK, April 16.-Ex-Senator
Nelson Aldrich of Rhode Island, died
suddenly at his home here today at
the age of "a years. He had been in
failing health for several years and
had taken several ocean voyages in
the hope of regaining his health. These
attempts failed, but it was supposed
when he returned from his last trip
that he had been considerably benefit
ed thereby.
Mr. Aldrich had passed most Of his
time in New York after retiring from
the senate Aldrich during his long
term in the service of the nation was
identified with many important politi-
cal issues, chief of which was the tariff
and monetary reforms. He was first
elected to congress in 1879. In 1881
he was elected to the United States
senate. He was reelected in 1886,
1892, 1898 and 1906
When his term expired in 1911, Mr..
Aldrich declined another nomination
in order to devote all his time to the
affairs of the monetary commission.
The senator was the father-in-law of
John D. Rockefeller, Jr.

may BRING LIBERTY
BELL THROUGH CITY
ON way TO FRISCO

Any efforts which will be made by
Indianapolis, Columbus, St. Louis or
other commercial organizations to
bring the Liberty Bell from Philadel.
phia to San Francisco through St.
Louis will receive the hearty co-opera-
tion of the Richmond Commercial club,
Secretary Haas said today when he
heard that the Philadelphia city coun-
Gil had voted to permit the bell to
make the trip.
There are a number of other routes
over which the bell has never been
sent, and I would not be surprised If
the authorities decided to send it by
the southern route" Mr. Haas said. II
will write letters to find out who will
direct the shipping. If Indianapolis
and other cities will assist, we will
try to have the bell brought through
Richmond"
The Liberty Bell was brought through
Richmond in 1904, making the trip to
the st. Louis exposition. 1t was mount
ed on a flat car, which was switched
in the Pennsylvania trainshed while
hundreds of citizens had their first
view of the historical relic. Schools
dismissed so that children could see
the bell on what was then said to be
its last trip from Philadelphia.
