President Honrs of Death by Wire at Oyster Bay. -OYSTER BAY. July 1. (Special.) The death of Secretary Hay has cast a gloom over Sagamore Hill and the entire village of Oyster Bay. Althougn Mr? Hay had not been a frequent visitor to the town, he had called upon several occasions to pee the President, and this Tact, coupled with his close Identification with ''Neigh bor Roosevelt," mado the -townspeople feel a personal Interest In tne man and his career. Many of the villagers called at the ex cutlve office during the day to inquire for details of the sad event, and all In formation that was obtained was readily given by Secretary Loeb. The telegraph wires running Into the executive office were loaded with messages of sympathy as soon as the news of the death had be some known throughout the United States. Among the many foreign mes sages was one from King Edward, also a number of other communications from foreign potentates and personages in various walks of life were received. Cabinet Members for Pallbearers. As soon as the President was Informed of Secretary Hay's death by a newspaper man. who reached Sagamore Hill before anyone in the Roosevelt home awoke, .he wrote a telegram of condolence to .Mrs. Hay at Newbury, and announced that, no matter where the funeral was held, he would make a point of attending In person It was also announced that the surviving members of the Cabinet would act as honorary pallbearers. The funeral will be held at Cleveland at 11 o'clock next Wednesday. Speculation over Secretary Hay's suc cessor fa of course the order of the day. although neither the President nor any one else In authority would discuss the matter until the deceased Is laid away. Secretary Taft Is generally believed to be the President's choice for the vacancy. There are only two considerations that would seem to weigh against his transfer to that post. The first u that the Panama Canal might suffer in" the event of his quitting the War Department; the second Is that Secretary Toft Is wrapped up In the study of conditions in the Philippines and his invitation to the St.ate Department would also divert him from this work. The State Department would profit by the injection of Taft's virility and sa gacity Into its fossll-like system. Dry rot Is evident. in a great many of the bureaus and if ho took hold of the department Taft would be very likely to work a num ber of important revolutions. The first crank to visit Sagamore Hill this -season was escorted from the prem ises by the secret service guards this af ternoon. He gave his name as Henry Seymour, farmer. Wantage, L. L He called to see the President, he said, to Secret Service Agent Tyree. who barred his way at the front entrance, to get him to compel the assessors at Wantage to return 5B! that had been wrongfully taken from him. Crank Goes to Back Door. Mr. Tyree turned Seymour back, but the latter refused to be thus easily dis suaded from his purpose and soon after wards showed up at the back door of the house, where Detective Kllnks was on guard. Ses'mour was arrested and taken to the executive ofllce, where Mr. Loeb Interrogated him. He took his arrest very quietly and he expressed no resentment toward the" detective. The secretary decided to al low him to depart. He was escorted to the station and put on the outgoing train. The only Invited caller at the Hill during the -day was James F. Tracy, a lawyer of Albany, who was offered, and accepted, the place of Associate Justice, of the Supreme Court of the Philippines. PRESIDENT'S INTIMATE FRIEND After Church of a Sunday Long Talks Were Held. OYSTER BAY. L. I., July l.-The death of Secretary Hay, so entirely unexpected, came as a personal bereavement to the President. With him the President was on terms of the warmest personal friendship. The Secretary's home was one place In Washington which President Roosevelt visited with frequency. Indeed, It was a habit with the President, while re turning to the White House from church on a Sunday to stop at the res idence of Secretary Hay for an Infor mal talk about matters of mutual In terest, Their conversations on such occasions were not confined by any means to Governmental affairs, but covered a wide range of topics, espe cially those pertaining to literature and the arts and sciences. Secretary Hay was a warm friend of President Roosevelt's father, -and he. therefore, had known the President since the hitter's childhood. They had many tastes and desires in common, and the ties which bound them to each other were those of deep respect and sincere affection. mmcdintely on the receipt of the ews of Secretary Hay's death Presi dent Roosevelt indited a message to Mrs. Hay expressive in a measure of his profound sorrow at her bereave ment. This message was as follows: "Mrs. John Hay, Lake Sunapee: I cannot believe the dreadful news. Pray accept our deepest sympathy In our terrible bereavement.

Ills nature was tender and affec tionate, and he will be missed not only for his knowledge of statecraft, but be cause of the character that he brought to the Cabinet taole. He had achieved the greatest victories In the diplomatic field, and the country ha sustained a distinct Joss in his death. "When I left Washington last evening, it was with the belief that Secretary Hy was better, and that any possible danger in his illness had been passed.

This sentence Is repeated in substance, almost every day. The many pelvic diseases to which women arc liable give rise toexactly this state of affairs. A constant nagging pain, a continuous loss of strength through excessive mucous secretions finally undermine the nervous system entirely and leave the woman a complete physical wreck. Local treatment Is of little avail. It nets as-a temporary palliative, but does not reach tho root of the difficulty. Catarrh is at the root of the trouble catarrh of the pelvic organs. Aa soon as the patient begins to take Peruna, she discovers thnt she is taking the correct remedy. Peruna Is not n palliative. It is a radical cure for such cases. Catarrh Is the cause of the difficulty. Peruna cures the catarrh, when the symptoms disappear. paina. and colds are soon driven from the system. Doctor III Mm Reduced.
