THE WELL-KNOWN PORTLAND FINANOIEB AND STATES- - ? , MAN 13 DEAD Died Suddenly at His Home in Portland Tuesday Morning Was at His Desk in the Bank the Day Before . His Career. .. r ' . . i. . '. ' "iS ' " - . - - ' '"" ' ; Portland,' March 31. Henry Winalow Corbett, ex-United Stales senator, and one of the most prom inent citizens of Portland and the Northwest, passed Buddenly away at hin residence in this city at 6:45 o'clock this morning. At the time of his death Mr. Corbett was 76 years 1 month and 13 days of age. Surrounded by the immediate mem bers of his family, the end of a long and industrious life came peaceably and almost without warning. iiesterday morning Mr. Corbett attended to his customary duties at the Frst National Bank, of which he was president. He returned home a few minutes before noon and appeared much bs usual, ex cept complaining of drowsiness. During the afternoon he converged with members of his family with usual spirit, but contrary to his custom he at intervals would re lapse into short slumbers. , Dr. A. S. Nichols, the attending physician, called between 1 and 2 o'clock in the afternoon and discov ered no alarming symptoms. At 5 o'clock the physician again visited the patient and advised that he re tire and rest until today. The' in structions were followed, and Mrs Wendling, the nurse, was constant ly near the bedside. Dr. -Nichols remained at the Corbett residence the entire night and administered regularly medicines. Mr. Corbett slept with apparent eomfort until iV-lolr thin mnrnlncr. when hn " r : . "-"- " ake tfoor 'Called TtarinoorisBtnenl.'lT He ate sparingly and again relaps ed into slumber. ; : Shortly after daybreak this morn ing the nurse called Dr. Nichols, reporting to him that the patient's pulse was very weak. On arriving at the sick man's bedside it was ap parent that a great change had come. Hardly a pulsation was no ticeable. Hypodermics were ad ministered without effect and at 14 minutes to 7 o'clock Henry W. Cor bett died. - In the death chatrber were Mrs. Corbett, Mr. and Mrs. H. W. Ma son, the physician and the nurse. Mrs. Corbett' and her brother-in-law and sister, Mr. and Mrs Mason had been summoned by Dr. Nich ols only a few moments before the end came. Death was due to the general breaking down of the nervous sy tern, which caused weakness of the heart. . It was in the-month of April, 52 years ago, that Mr. Corbett arrived at the village of Portland. It was composed of 400 people. On Jan uary 20, 1851, Mr. Corbett left via of the Panama route and landed at Astoria on March 4, 1851. At First and Oak streets he rented a small frame building and engaged in the mercantile buisness, having ship ped a small stock oi goods around Cape Horn for that purpose. His first enterprise here was to build the brick building which is now oc cupied by the firm of Corbett, Faik ing & Kobertson, the wholesale hardware firm. Since the erection of this building the" city has grown to a vast extent, and a number of magnificent business buildings at various locations in the city stand today, appropriate monuments to his enterprise. " i His attention was early turned to the improvement of the water transportation facilities first enjoy ed by Portland. He was the first to advocate the construction of the Northern Pacific transcontinental railroad. While he occupied a seat in the United States senate, he la bored long and earnestly for the consummation of this great project. In the winter of 1865-66, Mr. Corbett secured r the government contract for carrying the mails be tween Portland and Sacramento. The line, some 600 miles in length, be stocked - with four-horse stages. He successfully continued in this business until his election to the senate of the United states in 1867, when he relinquished his contract with the government, holding his ! connection with - the business of mail carrying ' incompatible with his duties as a public servant. In 1869, Mr. Corbett, in compa ny with Mr. Failing, purchased a controlling interest . in the First National Bank, an institution that had been established in Portland four years previous to -the. time Messrs. Corbett and Failing first became its financial heads. This is today the oldest - and strongest First National Bank in the Pacific Northwest. After his retirement from the United States senate, Mr. Corbett became vice-president of the bank. Upon the death of Mr. Failing, Mr. Corbett became the president of the institution, and he has filled his duties there without interruption. " V" ! " ' Aside from the bank, there are a large number of business and in dustrial enterprises with which he baa been closely connected, having been instrumental in organizing corporations to found them, and furnishing largely the means by which these institutions were inau gurated. He. was a director of the Oregon Railroad & Navigation Com pany, be was largely ; interested in the Portland Cordage WorksJ one of the principal stockholders in the City & Suburban Railway 1 Compa ny, and other street railroads: also, stockholder and officer ' in other banking institutions. Mr. Corbett and Mr. Failing were backers of the magnificent enterprise which founded the Portland Hotel, which has helped materially to give Port land a reputation among the world's globe trotters, for : there is no finer hostelry west of Chicago or Denver. . . Private enterprises have always acknowledged liberal support from the president of the First National, One ef hid fiist endowments was the gift of $36,000 to the erection of the Presbyterian church, and laige sums within the past few : years to various eleemosynary institutions.. In politics Mr. Corbett was al way an ardent and consistent re publican. He was chairman of the republican state central committee back in 1862, aud at different times ki counsel B-ndJeaderBhip-iiftve been sougbt bv party managers. He was a candidate for election to the senate a second time - in . 1898 and was the choice of many repub licacs in 1901. Originally Mr. Corbett was t whig and a devoted follower of Hen ry Clay. While in the senate Mr Corbett'a speeches on national fi nance- and tne tuodinz bill are cherished by his colleagues as mas ter pieces ot logic, ana . ne was warmly admired everywhere for bis determined stand as senator against all n eisures which seemed to eavor of bad faith on the part of the gov eminent, or the repudiation 01 any financial obligation which the Unit ed States had incurred to carry on the war. Mr. Corbett was married hret in February, 1853, to Miss Clara E. Jagger, of Albany, N. Y. This lady died some years later, leaving two sons, the younger of whom, Ham ilton F. Corbett, was carried off by a sudden illness in 1884. The El der son, Henry J. Corbett, died in 1894. Mr. Corbett was married a Becond time in 1867 to Miss EmmaL.Rug gles, of Worcester, Mass., a lady of rare worth of character and strong mental inclinations, whose grace and social accomplishments and Whose prominent part in charitable affairs of this city, has drawn to her a wide circle of friends who univers ally estiem her most highly. , The deceased was born at West borough, Mass., February 18, 1827, and he was, therefore, 7b years, 1 month and 13 days old. His an cestors who settled in Massachu setts in the 17th century, were Nor mans who traced their descent from Boger Corbett, who was a military leader under William the first. Hie boyhood was passed in Washington county, New York, and his early years were attended with privations and hard work. The immediate connections who survive the ' financier are: Mrs. Corbett, his wife; three grandsons, Harry Ladd Corbett, Elliott Rug gles Corbett, and Hamilton Corbett, and Helen Ladd Corbett, his daughter-in-law. , ... ' His estate is conservatively esti mated at more than three million dollars, and the three, children. grandchildren mentioned above will be the ultimate heirs. For Sale.

The man ordered his wife to throw the baby to the wolves. She refused and he attempted to tear the child from her arms. In tbe scuffle the mother fell out of tbe sleigh with the baby and they rolled, unnoticed by the wolves, into a ditch. The wolves kept up the pursuit and overtook, and devoured the man and hi& horses. , Washington, April 1. There ia a clear case of bargain and sale id thermarriagrof"Mt88 Thaw to Eart'w""" Yarmouth, announced to take place- ' in Pittsburg April 27th. The earl ; is penniless and tbe prospective bride is an heiress with $80,000 a . year in her own right. The details of the settlement to be made on the earl in consideration of the taking of Miss Thaw as a bride have been tbe talk of the town. The disagreement concerning the settlement to be made on the Earl of Yarmouth was settled by tbe intervention of Mrs. Thaw. She opposed the maraiage, but has bowed to the inevitable. Tbe trus tees of Miss Thaws's fortune said some days ago that $25,000 a year would be enfficent for the earl. The -earl thought he should have more, and there was a disBagreement that at one time threatened to end the affair. .' ',, Mrs. Thaw went to ' the trustees of Miss Thaw's fortune and told them that Miss Thaw ought to have, her full income, which is $80,000 a year. In addition Mrs. Thaw ar ranged for a further settlement which, it is understood here, will, bring the entire resources of the earl and his . wife to $200,000 a year. , -.. ,' . - Mrs. Thaw refused to tell what had been done, but said a satisfac- -tory agreement had been reached.
