Cumbs at Hospital in Washing

FRANKLIN K. LANE DEAD
Former Secretary of Interior Succumbs
to Operation He Risked in Hope OF
Regaining His HeaIth-Justice
Whites End Is Peaceful.

Washington.-Ed W ard ID GU G a s
White, chief justice of the United
States Supreme Court, died at hos
pital here, where he submitted to an
operation a week before. He was sew
enty-siX years old.
The end came peacefully. Up TO
that time the attending physicians had
hoped for a rapid recovery after an
operation for bladder trouble.
Death was said to be due directly to
complications which developed after
the operation. Justice McKenna and
other of Mr.. Whites associates in the
Supreme Court called at the hospital
when 1t became known that his condi-
ton was serious, but did not enter the
room.
1t has been generally understood
here that former President Taft will
be named to the vacancy in the Su-
preme bench. 1t has been freely re-
ported that the first vacancy would go
to him.
The chief justice was a Confederate
veteran, but he more than any other
man in public life seemed to typify the
reunited spirit of the nation.
Chief Justice White was born on his
fathers plantation, in the parish Of
La Fourche, La, November 3, 1915.
His parents were Catholic, and he was
of that faith. His education, too, was
in Catholic institutions. In early youth
he attended Mount st. Mary's College
in Maryland, later entering the Jesuit
College in New Orleans, finally at
tending Georgetown University, at
Washington.
At sixteen, when in his freshman
year. the Civil War started, and he re-
turned home to enlist as a soldier in
the Confederate army. He then prac-
ticed law in Louisiana, and later be-
came sugar planter. In 1874 he was
elected to the state senate, and in 1878
was appointed associate justice Of the
Louisiana Supreme Court. He was
then only thirty-three.
He was elected in 1891 a United
States senator to succeed Senator
James b. Eustis on the Democratic
ticket.
He had served three years when
President Cleveland, on February 10,
1894, appointed him an associate JUS
tice of the Supreme Court of the
United States.
On December u, 1910, President
Taft sent to the senate the nomination
of Associate Justice White. The NOM
ination was confirmed Immediately.
