16 ]. D CAMERON IS DEAD, AT DONEGAL [Continued from First Page.] eg], a nd the two Senators upon more than one historic occasion ruled ; the destinies of the Republican party from Lancaster county. Senator Cameron did much to ' help in the business development of Harrisburg. He was a builder and j an investor at home, because he ul- , ways considered Front and Stato streets as his place of residence When the Kast Marrishurg Railway was projected, he joined the group of men who founded the trolley ays- j tern of this city, and was identified ! with other enterprises. Harrisburg ; owes the location of the Elliott- . Fisher works to Senator Cameron. 1 who secured it for the Lochiel dis- ; trict. where he was also interested in Lochiel Furnace and where he < had his country home. Lochiel, as 1 famous in state polities as Donegal ] was in national affairs. A page could bo written about Senator Cameron's activities ere. his close relationship to this city and ! vicinity, his notable persona'itv and the part he played in political af- | fairs. Like his father, he has passed into the history of his native com monwealth. His Pi.-tingiii.sJicd Career James Donald Cameron, secretary | of war in Grunt's second administra- • tion. United States Senator from I Pennsylvania for twenty years, chair- j man of the Republican national com- 1 mittee in 1880. and the last great figure remaining from the period of American reconstruction, the son and successor to the fortunes and politi cal power in Pennsylvania of his father, Simon Cameron, sought to j avoid publicity in the closing years i of his life, and spent most of his time i at the old family seat, Donegal, i in Lancaster county, where his an- i eestors had settled on fleeing from Scotland and after the battle of Cnl loden in which they had espoused ; the cause of the unfortunate Prince; Charlie, going to his plantation on j St. Helena's Island, in South Caro-j Una, in winter or cruising in south-1 ern waters on his houseboat' Cone- i wago. He was a public benefactor to the city of Harrisburg in partieu- j lar. and was a leader as an agricul- I turalist. a railroad builder, a finan cier and a statesman. While keenly interested in current affairs, he took j no active part in polities after retir-1 ing front the United States Senate. I but devoted himself to his business and family affairs, and associated with himself in the management of. his affairs liis son, J. M. Cameron, I and his eldest grandson, .1. G. Brad ley. so that he might be sure that they would be conducted along the j lines in which he had faith. He was born on the fourteenth day of May, 1833, at Middletown. Pennsylvania, where he was educat ed until he entered Princeton Col lege. from which he was graduated in the class of 1852. Soon after that he; married in Harrisburg, where his' father had moved, Marv McCormick. the only daughter of James McCor mick, at that time the leader of the Pennsylvania bar, and a man of great business acumen and enter prise. By this marriage he had six children, who are still living, Ave daughters, Mrs. William H. Bradley, Mrs. Alexander Ilodgers, Miss Mary Cameron, Mrs. J. William Clark, and; Mrs. Chandler Hale, and one son.j James M. Cameron. His second wife, j who was Elizabeth Sherman, daugh-j ter of Judge Sherman, of Cleveland. Chio. and niece of General William T. Sherman, also survives him. Prominent in Business His business career began as soon . as he left Princeton, when he he-! came a clerk in his father's bank at | Middletown. later becoming cashieri and president of it when it became tiie National Bank of Middletown., After moving to Harrisburg he be-j c.inic interested in the First National! Bank of Harrisburg. He soon pur-, chased from bis father the farm on' the Susquehanna river south of the city, called Lochiel, and there made his home for many years. In the! meantime his business interests ] broadened and he became identified | •wbh the Northern Central Railroad, vhich extended from Baltimore to | Canandaigua, New York, pj route front Buffalo to the South. Un der his direction as president of the Northern Central Railroad it pros-1 ■pered amazingly and was finally leas- j ed to the' Pennsylvania Railroad, and ' is to-day one of that system's most! important lines. He brought many industries to I Harrisburg, through his connection i with then, among them the Penn sylvania Steel Company, and the EI- | liott-Flsher Company. With his two brothers-in-law, Henry McCormick Jnd James McCormick. he became a trustee of the James McCormick es- j tate, and took an active Interest in ' developing the business interests; which had been left by his father in-law of which the Dauphin Deposit Trust Company, and the blast fur nace, and steel rolling mills, now known as the Central Iron & Steel Company, were part. On his farms he took an active interest in ugri- j culture, being among the first to in- ■ troduce Jersey cattle into Southeast-j ern Pennsylvania. He helped to raise the standard of horses by breeding I and distributing Hackneys, and was | the owner of "Royalty," in nis day | a famous Hackney sire. For many j years he was the oldest member of i the Farmers Club of Philadelphia,! whose monthly dinners have bten' the gathering place for men of na-1 tio: il reputation in business nndj politics for generations. As a phil anthropist he sought to hide his ex tensive generosity, rather than to publish it and was active in assisting to place the Pine Street Presbyterian Church and the Harrisburg Hospital on a secure foundation, and at the time that an extension to Harris burg's beautiful parkway was agi tated, he was the first to donate the land needed, giving that part of his 1 "Lochiel farms which lay along Mill creek from the Susquehanna river to the Dauphin county almshouse, thereby taking the project out of the realms of imagination and making it a reality. This gift helped to give impetus to the development which has made Harrisburg one of the most beautiful cities of its size in the United States. His Public Lire His career as a public man began by early association with his father, Simon Cameron, one of the founders of the Republican party, and it. was the confidence established by the father and son in drawing about them in the organization of the party, the people of highest "eputn tion in every community through out the state which has enabled the Bepublican party in Pennsylvania to maintain its prestige and power ever since James Donald Cameron was Secretary of War in President Grant's cabinet from May 22nd, 1876 to March 3rd, 1877, when he suc ceeded his father in the United Btates Senate, having been elected to fill the unexpired term from which his father had resigned. The distinction of a son's election to suc ceed his father as a senator has as yet only been achieved in one other case, that of Thomas F. Bayard, of Delaware who was elected .o suc ceed his father James A. Bayard. FRIDAY EVENING, Ho was a member of the United Stales Sens to tltei taiier continuously unci! March Ji'U, IXj 'octng lieruj tor three successive terms. He; rendered distinguished service there, j ana withdrew only because he j \\ ashed to devote u.diseU ,u u:a pri- ! .ate affairs. lie was a delegate to; the Republican National coavetitit i; jt isiis anil 1880 and in ISXU vva., ; chairman ot the Republican National j Committee, and a member with Logan ot iliuuus and Counting of j Neu l'ork ot the triumvirate which sought the nominal.uu ot Grant lot a third presidential term. During much of this time in the Senate, U:c Democrats were in control of Cvu-; glees, but such was tile friendship j ami respect they held in hitu, Uu,t he wielded an influence ueyoad mat, ot hs Republican colleague-;. Before Mexican War The active period of his hieuuie began before the Mexican War. During ine period which imervened before Lincoln's election he was gaining the experience with men and aiiairs which made it possible for ban io take over bis father's bus iness interests when Simon Cameron j became Lincoln's first secretary of, war. During the Civil War he reu- ; acred signu. sei vice as a railroad i man m maintaining and improving the transportation of troops and supplies. At the close ol the war he found himself drawn more and more i into the problems of reconstruction i and atcive political life. Then fol- j lowed a period of twenty years in j office, during which the country was; developing the national resources and its international relations, ! which was brought to a close by the war with Spain After that another twenty years devoted to business and family affairs. For fifty years he lias been a national figure. For Sixty years he enjoyed the friend ship and confidence of the leaders of business, finance and politics. In his old age he was fortunate in re taining those qualities which marked him in his youth. Alert, energetic and optimistic, he was quick to form a judgment and to act unhesi tatingly upon it, and to bear the consequences. He left a record of < which he was not ashamed and to which those who come after him may point with pride. He came of sturdy stock and worthily represent ed it. He was the able son of an; able father. He was actively identified with j various eoal, iron and manufactur ing concerns throughout Pennsylva- j ilia and not a few in other states. He j was a man of vast capacity for in- i liustrial management and kept in close personal touch with all of the enterprises with which he was con nected. To Mr. Cameron, as has been said, more than to anybody else must be given credit for the establishment in Harrisburg of the Elliott Type writer company, now the Elliott- Fisher Company, one of the largest of its kind in the world. It was Mr. Cameron also who was largely instrumental in the development of the first modern housing experiment in Harrisburg. the Cameron Exten sion. where well-designed, good looking. semi-detached houses were erected with the thought of leasing tbeni at low rentals to employes of the Elliott-Fisher Company. Mr. Cameron was always deeply interested in Harrisburg. lie foresaw that what was formerly Eleventh street, now Cameron, would eventu ally become one of the most import ant thoroughfares in the city and he asked that council change its name to Cameron. In token of liis appre ciation lie brought the typewriter plant to Harrisburg and located it on Cameron street. Later, he agreed to the dedication of Cameron park way. an important link in the city parkway. The old park commission generously named it the Cameron Parkway. But while the Cameron farms in this vicinity called for some atten tion on the part of Senator Camer on and the old mansion in the lower end of the city has been for years one of the landmarks, much of the time he spent in Harrisburg during later years was at the family man sion at Front and State streets. He was a great admirer of the river front and was among the earliest advocates of a wall along the river and a public park the length of the city. He at one time approached the late Mayor Charles A. Miller, when the latter was city clerk, with the pro posal that the property owners along Front street each be required to build the section of wall in front of his property and donate the land to low water mark for a park, Mr. Cameron offering to be the first to bear his share. The project fell be cause of the opposition of property owners who thought the expense too high and was at a much later date carried to completion by the city along more extensive lines than even Mr. Cameron planned. Livcil at Donegal Mr. Cameron lived for many years since his retirement from public life on account of advancing age and large business interests at Donegal, Lancaster county, where his father lived and died before him. Property Hi Trust Senator Cameron's death recalls an interesting fact in his political career, "c favored free silver and differed with most of the potential Republican leaders on their advo cacy of the gold standard. He pi a dieted that the time would come when silver would be on a par with gold. December 23, 1914, Senator Cam eron began putting his house in order against the day of his death. By es tablishing a trusteeship he placed the I affairs in hands of trustees compris- I ing himself, his son and grandson ! and the Fidelity Trust Company, of Pennsylvania. The trust was to con tinue throughout Mr. Cameron's life time and until the death of the last | survivor of his children and de scendants then living. Within one year after the death of the last sur vivor named the estate is to be dis tributed among the issue of Senator Cameron then living, according to the interest the parents of each would have taken in the estate. The property was valued at the time of the trusteeship's creation at $3,500,- 000. Ex-Senator Cameron had large real estate holdings in Washington. He was the owner of the old Ogle : Taylor home in Lafayette Square, that city, which was occupied by many famous people. It was into this place that Philip Barton Key, son of the author of "Star-Spangled Banner" and United States district attorney in the District, was carried after he had been fatally shot by Daniel Sickles. Mr. Cameron lived there many years, and it was occu pied also by the late Vice-President Hobart, the late Senator Hanna and Mrs. Thaw, of Pittsburgh. Important Speech One of the most important speeches made by Senator Cameron was delivered In the United State* Senate January 18. 1882, in his reso lution to reduce the revenue of the flovernment by 'abolishing all exist ing internal revenue taxes except those imposed upon high wines and distilled spirits. The Funeral The funeral will take place' from Senator Cameron's Harrlsliurg resi dence, Front and State streets, at a time to be fixed. YOUNGSTERS ON !

Cars were provided for all playgrounds located at a great distance from Res- I ervoir. In the afternoon the folk dancing attracted big crowds. Stretched over the lawns in the park the playground youngsters in small groups formed a large circle.

POWER COMPANY AGAIN FAILS TO SUPPLY CURRENT Second Breakdown at Plant in Three Days Halls Indus tries, Delaying Work For the second time within three days, electrical current again failed Harrisburg because of another breakdown in the Cedar street plant of the Harrisburg Right and Power Company.

None of the circuits were without current for a period of more than one-half hour. While the shortage of current lasted less time than any of the pre vious breakdowns, it covered a greater territory. Only in a few dis tricts was there any electrical light or power during the period. War essentials were affected, milk dealers j were unable to operate their plants j and in only a few establishments was any work able to be done with ma chinery operated by electrical power. Klevators were compelled to stop running in the entire city, incon veniencing hundreds of persons. Six boilers are- now in operation at the Cedar street plant, two of them working with temporary arches. Two other boilers are not j now working because of a cavein of two arches. Bricks to repair them are now in the Harrisburg yard and will be delivered to-day to the utility com pany. The permanent arlices are ex pected to be in position within sev eral days. Users Domain I Relief Consumers of light and power in Harrisburg are at the boiling point of protest. All classes of users are imiignant. Almost daily there is suspension of service through a breakdown of the local plant or a failure of the York Haven Com pany's supply. This means interrup tion and loss to many industries. "It the crushing of competition j means what has been happening | during the last year in Harrisburg I it's about time to consider a mu nicipal plant or relief in other ways," declared an outraged citizen this morning. "This is a fine, exhibit of efficiency for the Public Service Commission which has now pend ing before it an application for in creased rates for the Harrisburg Light and Power Company!" A practical manufacturer suggest ; cd to-day that it should he an easy matter for the local plant to estab lish an emergency connection with the McCall's Ferry transmission lines and safeguard the Harrisburg public.

Bonniwell, Democratic candidate for governor who is planning to launch a new venture to-day by filing of pre-emption papers. Mr. Breen ar rived here early this morning with some clerks from the Philadelphia headquarters and a great amount of optimism. "The plan Is to have a meeting of men who are candidates and who want to he with us. This meeting will begin about noon. There will i be nothing doing until this meeting I Is held and when it ends the papers | for pre-emption will be filed. I judge I that will be about 3 o'clock," said Mr. I Breen. Will Pre-empt To-day Mr. Breen said that nothing would hp. done except preempt the name to-day and in discussing plans said: "We will attend to the pre-emptions for the state-wide ticket, the candi- I dates will have to bring their men i here and attend to their district pre emptions. I expect many of them here. The meeting will be open to such as come in person or bring their friends who will act as pre-empters, but any one who gets into that meet ing will not get out until it ends. The name will be communicated there and the papers signed up. Then we will go to the courthouse and file the papers and enter copies at the Capitol. It promises to be a busy d ay."
