The Famous Evangelist Died at the
Family Residence in East North
field, Mass., at Noon Today.
East Noutiikield, Mbks., Dec. 22.
Dwlght L. Moody, the famous evangelist,
ditid at noon today. It was not expected
until yesterday by the members of
Moody's family and his immediate circle
ot friends that death would be tho re
cult of his illness. Tho cause of death
was a general breaking down duo to
overwork. Moody's heart had been weak
for a long time, and the exertions put in
connection with tho moutings in the
West lust month brought on a collapse
Irom which he failed to rally.
This week the patient Bhowed a steady
gain until yesterday, when lie showed
ymptoma of nervousness, accompanied
hy weakness which caused .the family
much anxiety. This morning tho weak
ness continued, aud at 8 o'clock Mr.
Moody called his wife and children, tell
lug them that tho end was not far oil'.
The family remained close by the bed
fide all the forenoon. Tho evangelist
was almost free from pain and occasion
ally talked with apparent ease. About
the hiBt words he was heard to utter
wore:
"I have always been an ambitious
wan, not to lay up wealth, but to find
work to do."
Just beforo 12 o'clock, the watchers
law that the end was approaching, and
t exactly noon the great preacher
paBaed away.

THE T?EATY
WITH FRANCE
French Statement May Prevent It's
Ratification Here.
Washington, Dec. 21. Tho men who
negotiated the French reciprocity treaty
are very much disturbed over the asser
tion in the French chamber of deputies
that France has eocured much tho best
of tho bargain. While it ib believed that
tho claim !b put forward for tho purpose
of helping tho ratification o' tho treaty
in France, there is fear that tho effect
upon the American congress may bo
disastrous. Considerable opposition has
already developed to the reciprocity
treaties and doubt Is expressed about
the ratification in the senate or by con
gress if they are submitted to both
houses.
Silver Speculators at Work.
Persistent attempts are being made toi
create hostility to the financial bill
among the Republican senators. The.e
include the statement that Senator
Allison is not friendly to the words "gold
standard" in the bill, although ho voted
to report it to the senate. As far as can
be ascertained, it Beems that certa'n
money gamblers and speculators in silver
bullion are determined to prevent the
passage of the bill, as disturbed financial
conditions constitute their harvests.
But, no matter what they do, they can
not prevent the bill from passing.
