Public Officials.
, Paterson, N. J., Nov. 22.—The death
of Vice President Hobart, although not
unexpected, came as a shock to the
public generally, who were led to be
lieve by recent reports that the patient
•was improving or at least holding his
own. The beginning of the end came
during the previous afternoon, when
there was a sudden failure of the heart,
and from this attack Mr. Hobart never
rallied. He had been sick for a long
time and had suffered frequently from
GARRET A. HOBART.
heart failure and his strength had been
undermined. Gradually the failure of
the heart’s action became more appar
ent and soon after midnight Mr. Ho
bart became unconscious. He remained
in that condition until his death, which
was due directly to angina pectoris
complicating myocarditis. At his bed
side at the time were Mrs. Hobart and
his son, Garret A. Hobart, Jr., together
■with Dr. William K. Newton and his
Wife and Private Secretary Evans.
Will Be Buried at Paterson.
Owing to the prostration of Mrs. Ho-
Vart the funeral arrangements have not
!been completed. The only step decided
Upon is that the services shall be held
in the Church of the Redeemer at Pat
erson and the interment in the family
plot at Cedar Lawn, where the only
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Hobart was
buried several years ago. The church
can accommodate not over 800 persons
and as thousands will be eager to at
tend the services it was suggested that
they be held in the armory, which
Will accommodate 3,000 persons. It is
known, however, that Mrs. Hobart
Wishes the funeral to be as quiet as pos
sible and there is little likelihood that
the programme will be changed.
The mayor and aidermen of Paterson
have suggested that the body lie in
State at the city hall on Friday or Sat
urday morning and this suggestion will
probably be carried out.
Fully 500 messages of sympathy have
been received by Mrs Hobart.
SORROW AT WASHINGTON.
Announcement of Mr. Hobart’s Death
Cast a Gloom Over the City.
Washington, Nov. 22. —All the flags
In Washington are half-masted out of
respect to the memory of Vice Presi
dent Hobart. The announcement of
the vice president’s death, while not
Unexpected, came as a distinct shock,
and cast a deep gloom over the city
where he was loved and honored. The
Hews was first received at the White
House 10 minutes before 9 o’clock in a
private message from Paterson.
The flag over the executive mansion
Was immediately hauled down to half
knast, and the doors of the mansion
closed to the public.
The president was deeply affected by
the telegram announcing his colleague’s
death and at once dispatched the sym
pathy and consolation of himself and
Mrs. McKinley to Mrs. Hobart. Mean
time the sad intelligence bad been bul
letined by all the newspaper offices, and
the whole city was soon mourning the
loss of the vice president.
Cabinet Meeting Postponed.
The members of the cabinet were
made acquainted with the sad news as
coon as the president himself was in
formed by means of telephone from
the White House. Secretary Hay hast
ened over to the White House and had
a private conference with the president
•nd returned to the state department to
give orders for the execution of the offi
cial programme, so far as the govern
ment is concerned. First Mr. Hay sent
• private message to Mrs. Hobart ex
pressing sympathy and condolence, and
then gave his attention to the prepara
tion of a proclamation announcing the
death of the vice president to the peo
ple of the United States.
It was also necessary to convey the
information to the nations of the world.
This was the day for the regular cab
inet meeting and the members gath
ered at the White House at 11 o’clock,
but the death of the vice president
overshadowed all else and public busi
ness was not mentioned.
KNEW HE MUST DIE.
Vice President Hobart Early Resigned
to His Fate.
Paterson. N. J.. Nov. 22.—Although
many regarded Mr. Hobart’s illness in
the early and later part of the year as
serious, it was not until late in October
that his family and friends began to
despair of his life. Mr. Hobart was
then informed of the fatal character of
his malady—dilated right heart duct
myocarditis—and he remarked:
“Well, if it must be that I am to go,
I may as well be resigned to my fate.”
On the morning of Oct. 81 it was
thought that the end had come, but the
patient rallied and for more than a
week continued to eat solid food with a
relish. Three days ago, however, his
appetite failed and he gradually grew
weaker and weaker. He realized a few
hours before he became unconscious
that he was near to death and he said
to those about the bedside:
“I know that my time is nearly up,
but death is welcome to me.”
OFFICE REMAINS VACANT.
No Provision For the Electiou of a Suc-
cessor to Hobart.
Washington, Nov. 22.—8 y the death
of Mr. Hobart, the office of vice presi
dent of the United States becomes va
cant for the rest of President McKin
ley’s term, as the law provides no suc
cession. A president pro tempore of
the senate will be elected by that body
when congress assembles.
By law the succession in the event of
the president’s death devolves upon the
secretary of state, the next of line be
ing the secretary of the treasury, the
secretary of war, then down through
the list of cabinet officers in order of
precedence fixed by act of congress
when the death of Vice President Hen
dricks disclosed the necessity of such
provision.
LAST TRIBUTE OF RESPECT.
Funeral of Vice President Hobart Will
Be Largely Attended.
Washington. Nov. 22.—Vice Presi
dent Hobart’s funeral on Saturday will
be attended by the president and his
cabinet, the supreme court, the senate
in a body and a large committee from
the house of representatives, besides
many other high dignitaries of the gov
ernment, who will journey to Paterson
to pay their last tribute of respect tc
the memory of the vice president.
Every senator has been invited to be
present and the senate will meet at the
Fifth Avenue hotel, New York, Satur
day and thence travel in a body to Pat
erson.
WILL ALWAYS LIVE THERE.
Dewey** Transfer of His Home to Hi*
-Son Provide* for Proper Succession.
Washington, Nov. 22.—George G.
Dewey, Admiral Dewey’s only son, is
now the owner of the residence pre
sented to the admiral by the American
people. Papers were prepared and
signed during the day by which Mrs.
Mildred Dewey transferred all rights
and title to the property known as 1747
Rhode Island avenue, this city, to
George Goodwin Dewey. This is the
property which Admiral Dewey trans
ferred to Mrs. Dewey Monday. In ex
planation of the transaction a relative
of the Dewey family made this state
ment:
••Admiral and Mrs. Dewey have
transferred to the former’s son the title
to the home presented to the admiral
by the people of this country. It will
continue to be the home of the admiral
and Mrs. Dewey so long as he may
live.
“It may be desirable now to say that
it was the wish of both the admiral and
Mrs. Dewey to provide for a proper
succession to the property. By all those
interested in the matter the method of
transfer adopted was considered the
best and safest that could have been
adopted.”
DISTINGUISHED GUESTS.
Dinner of the New York Chamber ol
Commerce Largely Attended.
New York, Nov. 22.—The 131st an
nual banquet of the New York cham
ber of commerce was held at Delmoni
co’s during the evening and brought to
gether 500 representative business men
of New York. There were also a num
ber of distinguished guests, including
