Gotham's Trinity Church
DIES ABOARD SHIP IN Ml DOSE All
Apparently Recuperating His Health,
New York's Mayor Is Taken Off
by Sudden Attack of Heart Failure.
Mayor. William Jay Gaynor died on
the steamer Baltic in mid-ocean at
1 o'clock last Wednesday afternoon.
A paper received by cable the fol
lowing dispatch which Rufus W. Gay
nor, the mayor's son and companion
on the voyage, sent to London by
wireless to be forwarded to that news
paper:
"My father, William J. Gaynor, died
on the Baltic at 1:07 o'clock Wednes
day afternoon. Death was due to
heart failure. He was sitting in a
chair when the end tame. A deck
steward had visited a few minutes be
fore the mayor's death and had taken
his order for luncheon. The mayor
marked the menu to indicate the
dishes he desired.
"I was on the boat deck. When the
luncheon call was heard I went below
to tell father that his lunch was ready
as he had been taking his meals in
one of the staterooms.
"He was seated in his chair ap
parently asleep. I shook him gently
but he did not respond. His nurse,
who had been with him ten minutes
before, was summoned, and the ship's
surgeon. Dr. Hopper, was summoned
immediately. Dr. Hopper made a hypo
dermic injection. Then artificial res
piration was resorted to, but it was
quickly apparent that father was be
yond aid. The stethoscope showed
that the heart was no longer beating.
"The ship's officers took charge ot
the body. It was embalmed and
placed in a sealed coffin.
"On the morning of the day he died
the mayor arose about 9 o'clock. Alter
a hearty breakfast he went on deck
and walked about the boat at frequent
intervals, keeping in the sun. He
watched the men go through their fire
drill. At about ten minutes of 1 o'clock
he descended to the promenade deck
and went to his chair. He remarked
that he felt very well.
"During the voyage his health had
steadily improved and his nervousness
decreased noticeably. He had been
greatly Interested in the ship's dally
run."
The funeral will be public. It will
be held in Trinity church. New York,
an Monday, Sept. 22.
The Lusitania will arrive there on
Friday, Sept. 19, probably In the morn
ing. Escorted by troops of mounted
policemen and probably by a detail of
soldiers from Governors island, the
body will be taken to the Gaynor home
In Brooklyn.
Liverpool's Unprecedented Tribute.
The body of Mayor Gaynor lay in
state on Friday night in the town hall
in Liverpool, England, under a guard
of police. It remained there until it
was taken aboard the Cunard liner
Lusitania to begin its last Journey to
the United States.
It was a remarkable and unprec
edented tribute that Liverpool
showed to America's illustrious dead.
Hours before the Baltic arrived the
Princess landing stage was filled
with thousands who were anxious to
pay silent homage to the late mayor.
As soon as the Baltic had been
moored Mr. Washington, American
consul general; Dock Commissioner
Dow, officials of the White Star line
and representatives of civic bodies
went aboard and offered their con
dolences to Rufus Gaynor, the mayor's
son. ,
It was not long after the vessel had
been moored before a plain wooden
box, partly hidden by a draping of tho
Stars and Stripes, was taken to a
waiting hearse on the landing staj;e.
The little procession, escorted by
five mounted police, moved slowly
through streets lined with multitudes,
who raised their hats as it passed, to
the historic town hall while the Bal
tic's whistle sounded a one-minute
dirge.
In the history of Liverpool no citi
zen, not to mention a person of for
eign birth, has lain in state in the
town hull, hut last night the remains
of New York's mayor covered with the
Stars and Stripes, rested there on a
catafalque which was brought from
Westminster Abbey. It was one on
r. hlcli the bodies of many of Kngland'l
Creat dead, the last being Field
Marshal Wolsley, reposed. Half a
dozen great candelabra that never
burned in honor of foreign civilians
stood around, casting a nickering light
on the tall forms of six uniformed con
stables. At the head of the catafalque was
a magnificent wreath, Inscribed: "With
the deepest sympathy from tho Lord
Mayor and Citizens of Liverpool."
There vas another from tho American
consul general and his wife.
When the night vih'il ended tho re
mains were escorted, as on their ar
rival, to the landing stage where a
White Star lino tender took tlmtii to
the Lusitania.
It was the one bright spot oi this
occasion of sorrow to seo tho spon
taneous and united efforts of every
body in Liv rpool to show unbounded
respect to one of America's eminent
men.

"PEOPLE'S FIGHT
HAS BEEN WON"
WILSON.
Tariff Bill Passes Senate; Vote
Is 44 to 37
President Wilson issued this state
ment after the senate had passed the
tariff bill:
"A light for the people and for free
business which lasted a long genera
tion through has at last been won,
handsomely and completely. A leader
ship and a steadfastness in council
has been shown in botli houses of
which the Democratic party has rea
son to be very proud. There has been
no weakness or confusion or drawing
back, but a statesmanlike directness
and command of the circumstances.
"I am happy to have been connected
with the government of the nation at
a time when such things could happen
and to have worked with men who
could do them. There Is every reason
to believe that currency reform will
be carried through with equal energy,
directness and loyalty to the general
interest. When that is done this first
session of the sixty-third congress will
have passed into history with au un
rivaled distinction.
"I want to express my special ad

a vote of '44 to 37. It went through
carrying all the features for which
President Wilson has contended

greatly reduced duties on all all cf
the necessaries of life. The result
was a great personal victory for Wood

LONG JuOiiNEY
TO MATTE AWAN
Thaw's Lawyers Expect to Keep
Him Away For Months
GROSSMAN OUTLINES PLANS
Mead Counsel For Prisoner In New
Hampshire Believes Complications
A-Plenty Can Be Introduced In Case.
At Colebrook, N. H., Harry K.
Thaw's attorneys ventured the opinion
today that he will not be back in Mat
teawan in less than six months If ever.
Meantime W. T. Jerome was sanguine
he will have Thaw tack In New York
in two or three days.
Moses I. Grossman of New York,
who is now Thaw's chief of counsel,
eays lie has received assurances "that
Governor Felkcr will not issue an ex
ecutive warrant for the extradition of
Thaw without first granting a hearing."
Reports are so varied as to what
Governor Felkcr is going to do
that it is impossible to guess what
will happen to Thaw. While Gross
man is convinced that Governor
Felker will grant a hearing before a
warrant for Thaw's extradition is is
sued, Jerome says he will not.
"Sheriff Hornhrook of Duchess coun
ty," said Jerome, "is on his way to
Concord to see Governor Felker. We
have been assured by the governor
that he lias already studied the case
and Is prepared to issue the necessary
warrant for Thaw's removal to New
York without delay."
Thaw's counsel has a plan of cam
paign mapped out by which they hope
to keep their client away from New
York for six months and possibly a
year. Mr. Grossman outlined the pos
sibilities of the case in this way:
"We are, told that Governor Felker
will grant a hearing to us before he
signs the executive warrant for
Thaw's extradition. We hope the gov
ernor will decide that Thaw should be
given his liberty in this state. Should
he not decide so, however, we have
been assured by him that before he
issues the executive warrant he will
give us time to sue out a writ of
habeas corpus and thus throw tho mat
ter into the courts of New Hampshire.
"if the hVst court of this state does
not sustain our writ we shall appeal
lo the supreme court and thus keep
Tl.aw out of Mattoawun for at least
six months."
There was a pretty strong denial on
the part of Thaw's forces that any In
tention had been harbored by them to
spirit Thaw out of New Hampshire by
stroni' arm methods or otherwise. On
the other hand Thaw's chief counsel
did not hesitate to accuse Jerome of
having planned to kidnap Thaw if he
had the chance.
"And In that connection," said Gross
man, "I'd like to say that If Jerome
tries to take Thaw back to New York
by force he will meet with a riot. We
are perfectly prepared to resist any
such move." Coaticook citizens, about
fifty, are camping at Colebrook.
In a statement Thaw admitted that
he had been offered the opportunity to
escape if he would take it. "But I don't
want to escape," said Thaw. "I Intend
to fight this matter out and have my
self sent to Pennsylvania or be given
n.y liberty."
