ALUAI1CE PLAN
Visit of Fllieres to England
Unsuccessful in Its
lical Object.
(Onlt.4 Pnes Leased Wire.)
London, May t. It beoam known
today that the real object of , the vlelt
of President Falliere of France to Eng
land wa the establishment of an;n
glo-French alliance and that the .'pur
pose has failed, so far a any formal
action is concerned.
President Fallleres before embarking
thl afternoon for Calais spoke freely
of his design, aaylng:
, "I deeply regret that my vlelt to Eng
land ha railed to result In the estab
lishment of a formal Anglo-French al
liance or at least in preparatory steps
leading to one. -
. "The hospitality of the English peo-
Ele has been most thoroughly enjoyed
y me and my visit has been delight
ful, but It was my nope tnat the two
nations could be brought closer and
more firmly together by the formation
of an alliance.
"The English and the French have
much in common and the feeling of the
French people i most rrienaiy iowra
the English. I am sure that ft Is the
pleasure of the French people that such
an alliance be formed and I am con
vinced , that it would result in much
mutual good to the two nations."
It is believed that the French presi
dent and King; Edward and the high
officers of state have discussed the
proposition at length and that, while
the English hold the beat feeling for the
French and are most friendly toward
them, the king and his counsellors could
not arrive at any means of entering- a
formal alliance at this time, which
would be satisfactory to all interests.
The matter, it 1 understood, stands
much a it did previous to the visit of
Fallleres. but not the sliKhtest suaffes-
tlon of anything but the best Of feeling
exists between the klner and the presi
dent, who enjoyed each other" com

No material change will ba made In
the plana for the establishment of an
old. people' home near the Ladd farm
on the Sandy road, because of the
udden death of P. J. Mann. Mr.
Mann' lawyers stated today that the
work on the plana, for the home will
ba continued by Mra. Mann. It 1 be
lieved that the well known nloneer left
a fortune of 8600,000 and that the
greater part or tni win be left a an
endowment to the home whloh It had
been Mr, Mann's greatest pleasur to
vwuvvatv uu worm. lor.
Mr. Mann' death nama var anil

last night. He was found by Mra Mann,
dead In the bathtub, with the water

V It Is believed bv Dr. K. V. Ijnnari1
who was called In as soonla the body

ing heart weakness attacked him as he
stepped Into the tub, He had experi
enced a fainting spell a week ago and
bl heart had been weak for several

aoi - water it i believed, brought on
a fainting spell and Mr. Mann died
wttnout regaining consciousness.

Mr. Mann went to the bath saying that
n wouia oame oerore going to bed.
An hour later Mrs. Mann was awak.
ened by her foster son who told her
that the gas waa still burning in the
automatic heater in the basement They
summoned the three servants and made
an Investigation. Mrs. Manrr herself
found the body of her husband in the

Her Band Scalded,
Thinking that possibly there might
be some chance of saving him she
turned orr the water and ran her hand
Into the tub to pull out the stopper,

Mr. Mann's attorney, were summoned
from the adjoining house but Dr.

Mann, in SDlte of the shock nf her ter.
r-ible discovery, here up remarkably
well and. wa able to superintend the
arrangements for the care of the body,
which was removed to the coroner's.
It la probable that the funeral will
be held Sunday afternoon at 2 o'clock at
the home and -that the Interment will
be In Riverside. The Association of In
dian War veterans of which Mr. Mann
was a member, has made arrangements
to attend the funeral In a body.
Mr. Mann was 76 years old and was
born in the province of Queben. Canada.
spent his boyhood In New Hampshire
and came to California In 1849. In 1861
Mr. Mann was married to Miss Anna
Mary Lewis at Del Norte. California.
He fought through the Indian wars in
Oregon and made hi first business ven
ture in mining in. .eastern,. Oregon and
Idaho. His mines prospered and Mr.
Mann- reinvested the money In Portland
real estate in both ISasf and West Port
land. He was the owner of soma verv
valuable property, including the block
on Fourth and ' Morrison . occupied by
Fondness for Horseflesh.
Mr. Mann had no children 'of his own,
although he and Mrs. Mann have a fos
ter son, whom it was declared by Mis
Ray this morning, had never been le
gally aaoptea ana would not inherit any
large amount of the estate. Mr. Mann
has been an enthusiastic horseman all
his life and owned some of the best
driving horses In the west, 'which he
wa always particularly fond of driv
ing himself.
Mr. Mann's pet charity has been hi
fro posed old people's home. A short
Ime ago he purchased a large piece of
the Ladd property on the Sandy road as
a alt for the proposed home, it being a
very beautiful aa well as valuable piece
of land Architect have been at work
for some time drawing plan for the
buildings. The plan waa for both old
men and old women to be allowed in
the home, and to possibly combine the
present Old Ladles1 home with the new
Institution. Mr. Mann has been equal
ly interested with her husband In tha
proposed Institution, and In spite of her
advanced age will doubtless actively
carry on the work of building the home.
