New York — Mrs. Hetty Green, known as the world’s wealthiest wo­ man, whose fortune ie estimated as high aa $100,000,000, died here Mon­ day, aged 80 years. She had suffered three strokes of paralysis ’ in the last two months and for several weeks had been practically helpless. Her death occurred at H :06 o ’clock at the home of her son, Colonel Ed­ ward 11. K. Green, adjoining the plain brick four-story house on the corner of Central Park West, where Mrs. Green had lived lately in seclusion, except for her son and several Japanese serv­ ants and trained nurses. Wall street's estimates o f Mrs. Green's fortune range from $20,000,- 000 to $100,000,000. Officials of the Chemical National bank, In which Mrs. Green once made her downtown head­ quarters, declined to hasard a guess concerning the size of her estate. Hetty Green was the world’s most remarkable mistress of finance. The richest woman in America, she lived almost as frugally as u shop-girl. Her home was wherever she chose for n time to hang her little black crepe and bonnet, often in the hall bedroom of some cheap boarding house or in some remote and modest flat around New York. Mrs. Green's eccentric extremes of economy led to the popular misconcep­ tion o f her as a “ self-made woman.” As a matter of fact she was burn rich. In 1865 she inherietd some $10,000,- 000, which accumulated upon Itself until in 50 years it had multiplied nearly ten times. She also inherited family traditions which had been a pride for three centuries, and vriiich she was anxious to perpetuate in her children. Blome for Recent Irish Uprising Placed by Royal Commission I/ondon — The Royal commission which investiagted the Irish rebellion in its report submitted Tuesday says the responsibility for the outbreak does not rest with Baron Wimborne, the lord lieutenant, since resigned, who is declared to have been in no way answerable for the policy of the gov­ ernment. The chief secretary for Ireland, Au­ gustine Birrell, who resigned shortly after the suppression of the outbreak, was primarily responsible, say the re­ port. The Royal commission was presided over by Baron Hardings. Outlining the causes of the outbreak in Ireland, the report says: “ The fact should be borne in mind that there is always a section of opin­ ion in that country bitterly opposed to British connection and that in times of excitement this section can impose its sentiments on largely increased numbers of the poeple.” The report points out that it is out­ side the scope of the commission's in­ structions to inquire how far the policy of the Irish executive was adpoted by the cabinet, or to attach responsibility to any but the civil and military exec­ utive in Ireland. The report then gives these conclusions: “ That the main cause of the rebel­ lion appears to be that lawlessness was allowed to grow up unchecked and that Ireland for several years had been administered on the principle that it was safer and more exi>edient to leave the law in abeyance if a collision with any faction of the Irish people could therefore be avoided.” The importation of large quantities of arms into Ireland and the toleration o f drilling by large bodies of men, the report says, created conditions which rendered possible the recent troubles in Dublin and elsewhere. “ It appears to u s," said the commis­ sioners, “ that reluctance was shown by the Irish government to repress by prosecution written and spoken utter­ ances and to suppress drilling and maneuvering o f armed forces known to be under control of men who o|>enly were declaring their hostility to your majesty’s government. “ There developed widespread belief that no repressive measures would be undertaken by the government against sedition. “ This led to a rapid increase of preparation for insurrection and was the immediate cruse of the recent out­ break. We are of the opinion that on the outbreak of the war all drilling and maneuvering by unrecognized bod­ ies o f men, whether armed or un­ armed, should have been strictly pro­ hibited.” British Capture Fritourt From Germons After Desperate Bottle. FRENCH ADD MORE PRISONERS Teutons Retreat Before French Drive Near Hardecourt — Lose Many Trenches Also to British. I,ondon Fricourt, three miles oast of Albert, the scene of des|>erate fight­ ing between the British ami Germans since the entente silled offensive was liegun Saturday morning, has been cap­ ture«! by the British, according to an official statement issued Sunday night. The statement says: “ Substantial progress has been made in the vicinity o f Fricourt, which was captured by us at 2 p. m. " U p to noon some 800 more prison­ ers had been taken in the operations between the Ancre and the Somme, bringing the total up to 3500, includ­ ing those capture«! on other parts of the front Saturday night.” The official statement by the French war office at Faria says that south of the Somme the French have force«l their way into the second line o f the German entrenchments at several places and have captured the village of Fries and the Mereaucourt wood. The number of unwoumied prisoners taken in the two days' battle now is said to be more than 6000. Sunday night's statement by the French war office said that in the fighting south of Arras Saturday the French took a total o f 6000 prisoners. In the course o f the night French troops raptured the village o f Uurlu, about seven miles southwest of Albert. A heavy German counter-attack on the village o f Hardecourt, north of Curlu, was repulsed, the statement a«lds. After repeated assaults the Germans were obliged to retreat in disorder, Ijondon July 2.—The British troops in their greet drive in France have captured a German labyrinth of trenches on a front of seven miles to a depth of 1000 yarils ami the villages of Moutauman and Mammetz.

Hughes, in all probability will inaugurate his campaign for the ¡’residency in the second week in August, starting on a tour which will take him to the Faciflc Coast. The present purely tentative arrangements provide for addresses in about 10 leailing cities, probably St. Faul, Portland, Or.; Seattle, Wash.; San Francisco, Ix>s Angeles, Salt I.ake City, Kansas City, St. lxiuis and Chi­ cago among others. Mr. Hughes intends this swing around the circle as merely prelimi­ nary to one or two whirlwind tours. He hopes to avoid rear-platform speak­ ing on the first long trip. Mother and Baby Washed Away By 15-foot Wall of Water Pendleton, Ore.— Mrs. M. C. Mc­ Cabe, a rancher’ s wife, and her infant boy were drowned Saturday night about 5 o ’clock when n cloudburst broke over upper Butter Creek canyon, 43 miles southwest of Pendleton, and a wall of water swept down upon their home.

W. leaders at Virginia, in a telegram re­ ceived Sunday night, ask if they are in Russia.
