that the operation would relieve the
heart affection, but an attack early
Wednesday resulted fatally.
Immediately after he had recovered
from the influence of the anaesthetic
he said:
"I am surprised to be alive. I hope
to be able to live a long time doiug
good things for everybody, without
thoughts of money."
Following his resignation from the
Wilson cabinet, Mr. Lane sought to
recover his health and came here in
January of this year. He was advised
to spend the winter in a warmer cli
mate and visited in California, re
turning early this month. His condi
tion was favorable for an operation
and continue improvment was noted
until the heart attack which caused
death.
Mrs. Lane and George W. Lane, a
brother, were called to the former
secretary's bedside short.17 before 5
a. m. and were with him when he died.
Last night it was thought that Mr.
Lane was much improved.
Although Mr. Lane said following
the operation that he was "surprised
to be aliye," his improvement recent
ly had been so marked that his death
was unexpected. His son, Franklin
K. Lane, and his daughter. Mrs. Phil
lip Kaufman, of Washington, were at
their homes when their father died,
as was his sister, Mrs. M. A. Ander
son, of Oakland, Calif.
George W. Lane said this morning
that his brother left "no estate what
soever." '
Mr. Lane's body will be taken to
Chicago tonight accompanied by his
brother and widow.
