stances are actually oc

ed. From the day that local
horticulturists realized
these facts and the com
mercial world became
aware of the possibilities
of the trade, progress ha9
been sure and swift in
raising apple growing
from the plane of an ex
periment to the dignity of
tho leading source of rev-
. enue, saving only mines,

' ley. The incentive of the
extremely high prices re
alized for the output,
which prices appreciate
rapidly from year to year
in spite of the rapidly
enlarging orchard area,
has brought abont . the
employment of the most
modern methods of han
dling orchards in this

PORTLAND, Sept., 9. The New
York representative of a local com
mission firm this afternoon wired:
"The official announcement of the .
death of E. H. Harrhnan will be made
here at 3 :35 p. m."
In discussine this report a member
of the firm said that in all probabil
ity that the bulletin hud been given
his representative to be withheld un
til the stock exchauae had closed.
TURNERS, X. Y., Sept. 9. Tho
following bulletin wns given out here
this morning by Dr. Lyle, Harriman's
personal physician:
"Condition of ITarrimini remains
unchanged today. "LYLE."
All reports coming from Arden
aside from the bulletin have been
most pessimis tic. .
It is generally understood that the
financier is in a critical oondition.
He is surrounded with ice-packs iu

Edward Henry Ilarriman was born
February 24. 1848, at Hampton, L.
I. He was the second son in a family
of six children. HLs father was Rov.
Orlando n. Ilarriman, an Episcopa
lian minister.
The Ilarrimans were ns poor as
church mice.. The elder Harrimnu
changed parishes every year, but aot
till Edward was fienrly grown did he
get ono where ho could earn a com
fortable living. Always his meager
salary was in arrears, and his prido
prevented him from accepting help
from his friends. The Ilarriman
children were pressed even for food
and clothing.
Young Harriman's education was
little and desultory.
Wliilo still in his teens young Hur
riman went into Wall street as a bro
ker's' clerk. He set in to learn tho
Wall street game. It was in the early
70s. His teachers wore Jay Gould
and Jim Fisko and Jay Cooko.
Harrininn's health began to fail in
1908. In the spring of 1909 ho went
to (he southwest on a health trip,
and, returning in no better condition,
soon left for Europe. Thero ho expe
rienced little relief, and relumed to
the United States late in August.
