B0TT0MLEY, 73,
DIES BROKE
IN LONDON

LONDON. May 26 GNS0.-
The story-book career of Horatio
Bottomley, orator, publisher, fl
nancier and jailbird, came to an
end in a charity hospital ward to-
day.
Virtually penniless and but a
shadow of the man who for years
welded more power than any
other Englishman in or out OF
politics, Bottomley Succumbed to
the after-effectS of an abdominal
operation at the age Of 73.
Since his release from prison
after serving five-year term for
alleged fraud growing out of the
sale of victory bonds during the
World War, Bottomley made
ceaseless but Intellectual attempts
to recapture the prestige and
power he once knew.
Refused a Pension
His last public appearance"
was last month when he called
at an unemployment relief sta
ton to request a pension of 81
a week. He was refused, and a
few days later was stricken with
the grave illness that resulted in
his death al
In his capacity as financial
wizard whose operations ran into
the millions and as editor OF
John Bull, one of the most out
spoken of the the British weekly
publications that was credited
with making and breaking COVER
ments as we'll as individuals.
Early in his career, Bottomly
twice failed to get a seat in
Parliament, but the new power
he welded as editor of John Bull
easily granted him his wish after
1905. In the House of Commons
he failed to win confidence, and
on being declared bankrupt in
1912, was forced to resign.
Wore Tin Hat
The war provided new opportu-
nifty, and he made the most OF it.
Visiting the front, he had himself
photographed in a tin hat and
published the picture by the
thousands. After the war he turn
ed his genius to the flotation of
war loan, victory bond and gift
prize bond clubs, obtaining sub
Scriptions amounting to about ST.
100000.
Bottomley's downward slide be-
gan when he became involved in
a bitter legal dispute with Reuben
Bigeland, a former associate in
his vast enterprises. AS a re-
suit of admissions he was forced
to make regarding the sale of
victory bonds, Bottomley found
himself in the prisoners dock. a
few months later. He was SEN
fenced to seven years IN prison,
and served a term of five years.
