The of death was pulmonary ponsumption. All night loog the members of Mr. Gould's family were at his bedside cause i Barly on the previous evening it became | known that his death was only a matter of hours, He had never rallied after he had ! a hemorrhage of the lungs on the day before Thanksgiving. He had another hemorr hag | two days later, and still another on the pre vious Wiadnesday. This announcement was a surprise to all but the most intimate ac- juaintances of Mr. Gould.

It was as managing power of the Erie that Mr. Gould laid the foundation of his fore tune, and his money and iofluence, applied with his shrewd, unerring business instinct, | enabled him to extend his acquisition of railroad property to the control of the Union Pacific and its various connections, giving him an immense control of transcon tinental railroad affairs His forces and the determination with which he carried out the boldest of plans amazsl even the heaviest operators in rail road matters, yet his connection with a “Jeal” was rarely suspected until the busi pess had been consummated, as bis trans actions were usually made through others the Erie to absorb the Albany and Basque hanna. After a long legal fight the road was leased to the Delaware and Hudson Canal Company, but the battle was not re linquished until victory was beyond hop» he pet booby of Mr. Gould was un doubtedly the Western Union Telegr Company, and to ssoure its control he de voted the best energies of his life, soon plac ing himself in a position to dictate terms to the gigantic corporation, His control of the elevated railroads was acquired as easily and ns simply as his telegraph transaction. With his immense wealth and a thorough knowl edge of how effective a weapon it could be made Jay Gould had apparently but to wish to have his desire granted His unyielding firmness was never more strikingly illustrated than in the strike of against the Western Union, But one case of deleat in a pro is on | record against him, namely, the attempt of | | | past dence outwardly of his wealth, His mauner was quick and nervous, and even when or- Hving at the Western Union Building he would dart from his cab door to the elevator with surprising swiftness.
