and three spoke , for a substitute
which would have accepted the
majority! idea 'with reservations as
to the vice presidency. " , ,
By adopting the majority re

of the president, died tonight
at Walter Reed hospital of

The end came after the boy
had battled with the: utmost

days against a disease which
had racked his body with pain .
and sapped the reserve
strength-of his' frail constitu

he had suffered in 24 hours,
brought death. Notwithstand

other restoratives, the cour

death off repeatedly,-was un
able to meet the attack. .The
collapse began at 6:30 o'clock
and 'he gradually sank into
eternity. He died at 10;30
o'clock.
Every resource of medical skill
was brought -into play in the vain
