PRINCE BISMARCK
PASSES AWAY
SHE GREAT GERMAN STATES
MAN JOINS SILENT HOSTS.
Surrounded by His Fnmlly tho Iron
Prince Sinks to Rest in Peaceful
Slumber Sketch of an Eventful
Career Achievements of Histori
cal Interest.
Berlin, July 31. Trlnco Bismarck died
shortly before 11 o'clock last night.
Prince Otto Eduard Leopold BIs-marck-Schonhausen
vvnu born of an
old noble family of tlio "Jliuk" (Bsan
deburg) at Sclionhausen, April 1, 1816.
He was created a count Si-climber 16,
1S63, and Prince von Blsmtuck In
March, 1871. He was educated at the !
University of Gottlngen and (Stlefs
wald Btouglit up In the political fnlth
of the Junkers, or Piussinn Too
fiaulrearchy, he betnme In 1S4G a mem
ber of the provincial diet of .Faxony,
nnd o tho I'russlnn diet, In which ho
first attracted attention by his fiery
speeches In defence of the old mon
archal party. During the revolution
ary period of 1S4S the services ho tend
ered In th public debates to the Con
servative cause led to his appointment
as the repreents.tlve of Prussia In the
diet of lhc old German Bund at Frank
furt. Austria was then all-powerful In
tho German Bund. From the time of
Bismarck's nppearanco, however, the
oIce of Prussia began to have In
creasing weight. The successful audac
ity with which he checkmated Austrian
Intrigue at Fiar.kfort was the source
of constant Irritation at Vienna, and
naturally tended to produce some es
trangement fcotween the Austrian and
Prussian caurt. Bismarck was sent
ns nmbaisudu to St. Petetsburg In
1850, nnd held that position until 1S62.
In Muy of 1SG2 ho became Piusslan
ambassador at Paris, rive months
later ho was made first minister of the
Prussian crown. Within tho next ten
jears he humbled the Austrian em
pire, destroyed the Trench empire nnd
cteatcd the new German empire. He
remodelled tho map of nurope, dls
memboilng Denmark nnd Frnrce. Ho
enlarged the frontiers of Prussia by
thennnexatlon of various provinces, In
cluding thp dominions of three de
throned German princes, and succeed
ed In placing Germany, which had pre
viously been tho weakest and least re
spected of all the great powers, at the
head of all the states of Europe.
THE FRANCO-GERMAN WAR.
In 1664 Blsmarek withdrew for some
months from active public life, but he
was itr power again before the end of
the year. Then came the Franco-German
war of 1870, and after a campaign
consisting of an unbroken series of
victories, largely due to the strategic
genius of Count von Moltke, King Wil
liam was able, through his chancellor,
to dictate terms of peace to his help
less assailant.
Of the events In Prince Bismarck's
life subsequent to the Franco-German
war, it may be mentioned that he pre
sided at the congress of Berlin In 1878
and 1SS0, and the colonial conference
of 18S4.
In his domestic legislation Prince
Bismarck has been far los-s fortunate
than In his diplomatic negotiations. In
his economical policy, nfter beginning
as a free trader, he adopted a protec
tionist policy. He first largely reduced
the customs tariff, nnd ten ycar3 later
imposed heavier duties than ever
While he thus alienated the Liberals,
hi? laws, which were afterwurds re
pealed, interfering with tho religious
liberty of tho Catholle priesthood, led
to a long nnd bitter struggle with the
Catholic church, and made all its ad
herents his bitter enenrles. Equally
severe was his policy with regard to
Social Democrats, his dracontc meas
ures against whom produced the pro
foundest discontent among the work
ing classes In the largo cities.
Prince Bismarck took a prominent
part In connection with the triple nl
llance between Germany, Austria nnd
Italy, which Is understood to be direct
ed against a possible alliance between
Russia nnd France against the Ger
man powers.
RESIGNATION AS MINISTER.
The reported resignation of Bismarck
ns Prussian prime minister and coun
sellor was announced In February. 1890,
but did not actually occur until March
1" of that year, when diver gpnces of
opinion between him nnd the emperor
led to his retirement. Ills departure
from Berlin was made the occasion of
a great popular demonstration.
Since then Prince Bismarck has re
Rlded at his country seat
Two attempts have been made on
Prince Blsmarek's life, the first by a
lunatic named Blind, on May 7, 1S6C,
at Berlin, the second on July 13, 1874,
by Kullman, nt Kissing.
THE LAST ILLNESS.
Bismarck's Condition Was Not Con
sldered Dangerous.
London, July "1 A special dispatch
to the wsoclated Press says tho news
of Prlnre Bismarck's death reached
Berlin nt a late hour and was only
generally known this morning. A num
ber of napers, Including the Post, the
Vorwnerts and the Deutsche Zeltung,
did not contain the news of tho prince's
demise. The Kreuz Zeltung and Eomo
others hnd only a brief notice.
The Nachrkhten gives the fullest de
tails of the last das and death of Bis
marck. It says:
On Tuesday evening nn Improvement
set In, In the prince's condition, In
which repeated changes for the worse
had occurred since October last; and
he was able to appear at the table and
take part in the conversation, drinking
champagne nnd nfterwards smoking
several pipes, which he had not done
lately.
His condition was so satisfactory
that Dr. Schweninger, after the prince
had cone to bed, left with the Inten
tion of returning on Saturday His con
dition was comparatively satisfactory
throughout Friday and Saturday morn
ing. Ha read the Nachrlchten nnd con
versed on politics, particularly referr
ing to Russian affairs. In the fore
noon he took luncheon, grumbling
Jocularly at the small proportion of
spirits in his drinking water. Then a
sudden change for the worse occurred.
In consequence of an acute attack of
pulmonary oedema, nnd in tho course
of the afternoon he frequently became
unconscious.
Recently, besides periods of unusual
mental leuiness the prince had had
Interval) or drowsiness, falling into
long sound nnd beneficial sleep, on
awakening from which he would be

ments, wiping the mucous from the
patient's mouth and enabling him to
breathe more freely.
The last word Prince Bismarck ut
tered was addressed to his daughter,
Countess von Rantzau, who wiped tho
perspiration from his forehead. They
were: "Thanks, my child."
The whole family were assembled at
the bedside at tho time of his death,
and Dr. Schweninger, Dr. Chrytanrler
and Baron nnd Baroness Merck woro
also present. As no breathing move
ment or pulse was perceptible for three
minutes, Dr. Schweninger declared
quietly and simply that the prince was
dead.
Dr. Schweninger telegraphed the
news to Emperor William, In Norway.
The prince lies as he used to Fleop,
In an easy position, with his head
slightly Inclined to the left. The ex
pression on his face Is mild and peace
ful. It Is remarked that his head re
mained warm fur nn unubually long
time.
In accordance with Prince Bimarck'R
wish, he will be burled upon the hill
opposite the castle in the vicinity of
Hlrschgruppe.

New York. July JO. The recent ten
derrcv of the market to dullness was rath
er accentuated today bv the tact that
tho London Stock exchange was taking a
holldu Dealings In railroad blocks wero
at minimum nnd there was a notablo dis
inclination to set. Even tho professional
bears who have rcallv been tiro orrly
prominent sellers in tho market lor n
period of nearly two months, hesitated to
put out short lines todiy In fear of some
deevlopments over Sunday that would
give the market Its long expected Impetus
to aetlvltv There was a continuance of
