H Laid the Konnilntlnn of Ilia Great Wealth In Call- I fornla In 1840. I CHICAGO, Jan. 7. Philip I). Armoui died at his residence In Prairie aronut In this city at 5:45 o'clock last cvpnlnir The end came after two vpnr nf llliuoa during which time Mr. Armour visited German hatha, passed the cold month Ik southern California and devoted himxell larnely to an attempt to restore hit health, which, however, had been broker never to be regained. When death cams, bis grandchildren, who had so close a place In hla heart, were at the family residence, as was J. Ogden Armour, tin surviving son. The death of his son, Philip D. Armour. Jr., in southern California on .Inn. 21), 1900, was a a-rent shock to the health broken man. The son had jfone on Visit to his father and was tnken sudden ly with pneumonia. His death followed with scarcely a day's warning. The son bad largely interested the father and In herited the business ability of the Ar mours and was closely following the foot- stsps of the hend when he was stricken down. So carefully had the nlnns for the fu ture been made that the death of Mr. Armour will have little effect on the out ward working of the great enterprise whq wnicn ne nad oeen so closely Iden tified. It Is hollered all the Armoui properties will be held intact until the grandchildren come into their own. Estimates of Mr. Armour's own estate run from $10,000,000 to $25,000,000. Ihis of course does not include the $15, 000,000 or $20,000,000 owned by the younger members of his family. Tor years every enterprise he was interested in had been making immense profits. His holdings of stock have all advanced largely during the last three years. Philip D. Armour, who was In his sixty-ninth year, made his own life on lines unique and wholly original with .himself. From a not overrich Madison county ( X. Y.) farm to the position of paying more freight and controlling more provisions than any other man in the world were the two extremes of his life. The California gold fever struck west ern New York in 1840, and young Ar mour was the first In Stsckbridge to de termine to visit the Pacific coast. He obtained the permission of his parents and at the age of 17 started, having three of four companions from the same neigh borhood. The almost incredible port of it was that the party walked nearly the en tire distance from New York to Califor nia. The commercial sense, which always predominated In his life, indicated its presence as soon as he saw the goldfields of California. He made money from the start, and at the end of six years he re turned home with a fortune. Becoming dissatisfied with the quiet life of his na tive town, he came west again and to gether with brother-in-law established a large wholesale grocery house In Milwau kee. This venture was also successful, and in a year's time he purchased the largest grain elevator In Milwaukee. This led to more elevators and railroad stock. In 18C6 he came to Chicago to take chnrge f the Chicago branch of a New York packing establishment. The result was that the Chicago house ceased to be a branch, and the west gained the largest packing and provision plant in the world. The property interests for which Mr. Armour stood -a re estimated at $150,000. 000. In works of chnrity Mr. Armour's monument will be found In the Armour Institute, to which but a short time ago he gave $750,000 In one remembrance. Asked once what he considered his best paying investment, he replied, "The Ar mour institute." The Institute today represents an in vestment on the part of Mr. Armour and his brother Joseph of $2,250,000 and a yearly expense for maintenance of $100, 000. Collateral Inheritance Tax. ALBANY, Jan. 7. The collateral In heritance tax act has brought Into the state treasury during the past three months over $700,000, which is above the average for a period of that length. The bulk of that sum has come from New York city, which has always contributed the major part of the taxes collected un der this statute. The estate of Emma 8. Schley, late of New York city, paid the largest amount of taxes during the three months. Its contribution to the state cash was $201,494. The second largest tax. $73,908, was paid by the heirs of Wallace I. Andrews, lute of New York city. Last of m Famous Class Dead.

Mr. Tesla spent about eight months In Colorado from May, 18!M). He wanted to conduct experiments In relation to the wireless transmission of energy at an al titude of several thousand feet. He built his laboratory about ten miles from Pike's peak and set out to ascertain the best conditions for transmitting power with out wires and how to best develop appa ratus for the transmission of messages across the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, a problem with which he has labored for years.

The result was Inrgely brought about by the Inllnenee of certain senators from several of the larger northern states who threw the weight of their influence into the scale In favor of the larger member ship.

NEW YORK, Jnn. 7. Just at the clost of the market on Saturday Wall street received the startling news that J. Pier pont Morgan had bought the Central Railroad of New Jersey and sold it to the Reading railroad. When the market opened this morning, it was confronted with the additional news that Mr. Mor gan had secured the controlling Interest in the Lehigh Valley also, and this Inter est will probably be offered to the Read ing at the meeting of the directors which has been called to complete officially the purchase and arrange for the formal transfer of the Jersey Central stock to its new owners, Thus the two long strides which bring the Morgan following luto practically complete control of the coal carrying rail way situation in the cast have been made In quick succession. Other probabilities of the not distant future are an alliance between the On tario and Western and the Delaware and Hudson. The Delaware, Lackawanna aud Western Is also regarded by some as game for Mr. Morgan's basket. It is controlled by Vanderbilt and First Na tional bank Interests, which are both fa vorable to him. The Lehigh Volley railroad's main line extends from Jersey City 442 miles to Buffalo. Its branches and subsidiary lines bring the total mileage up to 2,178. It owns 3,019 acres ef coal land and all the stock of the Lebigh Valley Coul Company, which holds in fee or under leuses about 35.000 acres of coal lands nnd collieries with a total dally capacity of 30,000 tons.

RAILROAD REFOnM, Plan to Do Away With BO.OOO Office holders. CHICAGO, Jan. 9. The financial pow ers controlling the destinies of the great railway systems of the nation are report ed to be planning one of the biggest economical reforms In , the history ot American railroad operations. The in tention is to dispense with the vast army of traveling passenger and freight agents and other officials directly engag ed In the solicitation of business for the lines. Should the plan be carried out it means the discharge of more than 50,000 men, and the annual saving of millions of dol lars to the carrying companies will be the result. The intention of the railroads to bring about the new reform come as a result ot the recent big deals engineered by J. Plerpont Morgan, James J. Hill, John D. Rockefeller and others.
