dore Roosevelt died in his sleep
early today at his home on Saga

him and said he expected soon to
renew his wood ehopping expedi-
tons on his Sycamore Hill estate.
The immediate cause of Col. Roose-
velt's death was pulmonary en-
bolism, or Judgment in the lung of

suffering for some tirue. The rheu-
tism affected his right hand and
it became much swollen.

Col. Roosevelt was Ais a. m. as
near as it could be estimated. No
one was at the bedside at the time
the former president breathed his
last. A minute before his attend
ant, James Amos, noticed that his
patient was breathing heavily and
he went to call a nurse. When he
returned with the nurse they found
