WAS CHAIRMAN OF OIL PROBE COMMITTEE

Baltimore, June Ex-senator Ed
win Fremont Ladd, senior senator
from North Dakota, died here at
1920 a. m. today from kidney trouble,
which developed as a complication OF
neuritis contracted year ago In his
home state of North Dakota.
Attack of Neuritis.
The affliction which indirectly
caused Senator Ladd's death fastened
upon him year ago while he was
visiting in North Dakota. With his
clothing wet from passage through a
rainstorm, the senator, whose rugged
ness of mind would not admit the eff
feet of bodily discomfort, travelled all
day in that condition. The wetting
resulted in an attack of neuritis IN
his left shoulder, which went later to
his wrists and hands. Physicians at
John Hopkins hospital here, where he
came for examination in March of
this year, found his condition not
serious, but advised against overexer-
tion.
Critical Complication Sets In.
A few days ago kidney trouble de-
veloped and his condition became Sc
rious, but was not considered critical
until two days before his death. At
that time his physicians expressed
hope that he would recover if he
could summon the energy and DISPOSE
ton to fight. He steadily became
weaker, however, and early this morn
ing failed to respond to heroic treat
ment administered as a last resort.
Was in Sixty-Sixth Year
Senator Ladd was in his sixty-sixth
year, and had been successfully
chemist, professor, college president
writer and United States senator. His
high honors in North Dakota came
to him by adoption. He was a native
of Maine. His death, following that
of Senator LaFollette, was the sec.
end loss to be suffered by the senate
