NORTHCL|FFE DEAD,
WAS MOST NOTABLE
EDITOR OF HIS DAY
Distinguished British Journalist
Succumbs to Acute Blood
Poisoning.
OWNED SIXTY PUBLICATIONS
BY Associated Press to Every Evening.

London, Aug. l4-Viscount North
cliffe, noted British publcist. died this.
morning. News OF Lord Northcliffe's
death was given by tho doctors who
have been attending him In this bull
let.n:
"Viscount Northclifre died at Io:12
o'clock. The end was perfectly peace
ful"
Tho death OF no other unofficial
person could have made a deeper i'm
preston In England than that OF Lord
Northcliffe. The news was not a sur-
prise, as the bulletins issued by the
doctors for tho last week plainly In
dicated that their patient was dying.
1t was stated that tho cause OF
Lord Northcliffe's death was suppur-
alton or the production OF pus, within
the heart. which was followed by
acute blood poisoning.
The medical terms used In giving
the cause of Lord Northcliffe's death
were Lucrative Endocarditis, strep-
tocoial septicemia and terminal syn
cope. This is popular parlance, means
an Inflammation OF the lining men,
brane OF the heart, with consequent
infection OF the blood, and sudden fall
ure OF the heart due to fainting.
Lord Northcliffe was by far the most
noted figure In British journalism and
the first question on everyone's lips
was as 10 what effect his death will
have on the policies OF The Times and
| his other newspapers. which aimee
the end of the war have strongly
opposed the Lloyd George administra-
ton and its principles, with the not
able exception OF its dealings with
Ireland, which the Northcliffe press
supported throughout.
| Viscount Northcliffe, the. son OF al
Irish barrister. became an editor a
II years, owner and publisher of tn
London Times and Daily Mail. tn
moulder OF public opinion. a man o
powerful influence in the making an,
unmaking OF British cabinets and
who, with David Lloyd George, con
tributed in a great measure To arous
ing England to moce vigorous actor
In the war.

REPUBLICANS MEET TO
PASS UPON DELEGATES
Final Showdown Between Fac
tions May Develop This
Afternoon.

The executive committee OF the Re-
publican Committee OF New Castle
county IL meeting at $40 King street
this afternoon 10 pace upon the el:-
gihility of candidate ties fro-a the county
who wish 10 be elected as delegates to
the State convention which convenes
at Dover tomorrowweek. No one
knows except those in control of the
county committee how many candi-
dates have filed their names. II Is
known, however. that Senator Coleman
du Pont's friends have fled a COM
plcte ticket in nearly every ward But
according TO rumors. there Will be
contests IN ten city wards and per-
haps a couple OF county hundreds. the
opposition coming, !; is said. from the
friends OF Senator J.. Heisler Ball.
With the county committee in con-
troll OF the Ball faction. the du Pont
supporters will have TO accept as
gracefully as possible whatever the
BAH crowd wante TO hand them. The
du Pont leaders say the names of all
OF their candidates for delegates have
been regularly filed, while there is a
hint that this has not been the case
with the Ball group delegate candi-
dates.
Unless some compromise is effected
at the executive committee meeting
this afternoon, and the Ball faction
provide NJ much opposition as is ru-
mored they intend 10. then nothing
remains but TO fight II on; at the polls
next Saturday. Rumor has il that
there will he opposition 10 the du
Pont workers IN every ward which
they undertake to control. There are
charges that faith in political prom
ise~ and pledges has been broken
between the two factions.
There IN only one way for the po-
litical worker to straighten out such
q condition. That is AZ the polls. and
unless the breach k fixed up today
by some compromise, Il will be a fight
10 the finish on Saturday.
The du Pont followers say they are
sure Of Kent and Sussex counties
That means, they continue. that Sen
a,or Ball's friends must win the eight
delegates in Wilmington and rural
New Castle In order TO checkmate the
du Pont followers In lower Delaware
in the convention. From a Democratic
point Of view. II would seem that nc
matter what happens. the Republican
state convention is bound TO be one
rip-roaring old time fight with the
control OF that meeting and the next
state committee az the prize.
Should the du Pont faction win

unions who still have the proposal OF
the President that the Railroad Labor
Board be permitted to settle the
question OF seniority. the principal re-
naming bono OF contention In the
dispute.
In many quarters. II was believed
tho real key to the situation was held
by the four railway brotherhoods. and
that the attitude OF their officials and
the extent OF support would be In
large measure the action OF the strlk-
ing crafts. Though II had been said
the striking shopmen's chiefs had
prepared statement rejecting the
Presidents proposal the fact that this
statement had been withheld from
publication up to the time the con-
| lfPTPnfFt vi unlV1 lfUutiS HNSffnblNt
this morning, was taken as an indlca-
tion there stIl was a possibility they
might reconsider their stand.
There also was seen a possibility
that no decision would be Forthcoming
for day or 80. and In this connec-
ton some Significance was attached tc
the statement OF Il. u. Sheppard
president OF the Order OF Railway
Conductors, last night that the four
brotherhood chairmen would continu,
to act as committee OF media ton
until Congress gets back into ses
slon.'
The executives answer 10 Presden
Harding. was submitted by T. Dewitt
Cuyler. chairman OF the Association
OF Railway Executives. who, with
others OF the committee representing
the executives. was In a long Sun
day conference with the President.
In a statement later Mr.. Cuyler sal,
the executives at their meeting In New
York Friday had with practica
unanimity responded favoraby to tn

Approximately three-quartcrs OF tn
mileage represented. Mr.. Cuylcr said
favored n resolution providing tha
all striking shopmen be re-employet
while the remainder desired that tn
! strikers be rs-employcd 'as far q
practicable.
Tho chief condition upon which tn

in his statement. was that such nc
ceptance involves no surrender OF III
. principles with respect to seniority
adopted by the carriers August /, 1872
Also there was insistence that, tn

mained at work and new employs
who have since accepted service wit
