His Long Sufl'ering Ended at 9:10 on
Saturday Night.
unconscious AT THE LAST.’
When the 5
Death
Surrounded by His Family
Dread Messenger Came—His
Long Expected—From the IIIine
Level to the Senate Chamber.
WASHINGTON, March 2.—Senator George
Hearst, of California, died at his residence
in this city Saturday night at 9:10 o’clock.
The end had been anticipated for weeks,
but the sturdy pioneer fought gallantly
for his life to the very last. More than
once had he been reported dying in the
past three months, only to have the ru-
mors refuted by a statement from'his own
lips. He began to fail very rapidly Satur-‘
day afternoon, and physicians and his fam-
ily were summoned to his bedside. About
6 o’clock he rallied, but soon after came
another sinking spell, from which his
medical attendants were unable to resus—
ritate him.
By his side were Mrs. Hearst, their son,
William Hearst, and Dr. Charles S. Ward,
of New York. Grouped around the rooms
were the family servants, who were great-
ly attached to Senator Hearst. At ten
minutes past 9 o’clock, while the patient
seemed still asleep and all was quiet, Dr.
Ward noticed a change which escaped the
others. He turned to Mrs. Hearst and
quietly said, “It is all over; he is dear .”
A Republican Will Succeed Him.
Senator Hearst’s malady was cancer of
the stomach, and his extreme age made his
suffering all the more intense. He leaves a
widow and son and a fortune which is esti-
SENATOR GEORGE HEARS'I“. ‘
mated all the way from $10,000,000 to 820,-
000,000. His death will insure the election
of a Republican as his successor, that party
having a large majority in the California
legislature.
1111'. Hearst as a hIiner.
George Hearst was born in Franklin
county, Mo., Sept. 3, 1820. His father was
William G. Hearst, a. native of South Car-
olina, of Scotch descent, who in 1808 moved
with his family to Missouri and engaged
in stock raising. George Hearst graduated
in the Franklin County Mining school in
1838, and in 1850, tempted by the promise
of speedy acquisition of wealth in Califor-
nia, he made the trip overland to the Pa-
cific slope, arriving at Placerville, El Do-
rado county, in October.
He at once commenced placer mining,
which he continued until December, when
he with others discovered a rich ledge of
gold quart-z, which he immediately com-
menced to develop. They worked the
mine for a year and then he went to Sac-
ramento and engaged in the general mer-
chandise business, which he soon aban-
doned, and in 1856 he found himself broke.
Mr. Hearst then left the uncertainties of
placer mining, and with $40 went to
Nevada county and opened some very
good mines with considerable profit to
himself.
At the Famous Comstock Lode,
A company of friends supplied the neces—
sary outfit, and on July 29, 1859, he left on
a prospecting trip to the famous Comstock
lode. He found only fifteen men there,
his party being the second upon the field.
He remained for about six weeks, and
when he saw the vast amount of gold to
be obtained he made contracts for an in— '
terest in one of the most important lodes,
now known as Ophir, and returned to
Nevada City to obtain the necessary
money. This yielded $3,800 a ton and cost
$750 for smelting.
How He Overcame Reverses.
In 1860 Mr. Hearst sold half of his inter—
est for $45,000 and returned to Washoe
county. In June, 1862, while on a visit to
Missouri, he married Miss Phoebe E. Ap—
person, and in April, 1863, a son was born,
who is still living. Mr. Hearst engaged in
mining and acquired a fortune, but finan-
cial disaster in 1866 again reduced his cir-
cumstances. Turning his attention to real
estate he realized $150,000 in that manner
and again took to mining, when he opened
the Mineral Hill and Eureka mines. He
invested in the Ontario mine in 1880 and
also invested in mining in the Black hills. _
Becoming the senior member of the firm of
Hearst, Haggin &. Tevis, he became very
extensively engaged in dealing in mining
claims, and owning some of the most
profitable mines in Butte City, Mon., and
also mines in Arizona, Colorado, Oregon,
Mexico, Idaho and California. "
He was generally conceded to be the
most expert mining prospector on the Pa-
cific coast, and it was a common saying
that his judgment in regard to a mine was
never found at fault. He was a candidate
for governor of California in 1882. In 1885
he received the Democratic vote in the
state legislature for United States senator.
In March, 1886, he was appointed United
States senator by Governor Stoneman, in
place of John F. Miller, who had died, and
in January, 1887, he was elected for the
succeeding term. In addition to his min-
ing interests Senator Hearst was one of
the largest real estate owners in California
and he was the proprietor of The San Fran-
cisco Examiner till 1887, when he presented
it to his only son.
As a Patron of the Turf:
Senator Hearst had been a conspicuous
figure on the turf for the past three years,
his colors having been borne by some of
the best race horses seen in the east. In
1888 he had the fast imported mare Gorgo,
then 3 years old, having purchased her
running qualities from Senator Leland
Stanford. She won two races that season,
Bay, and so roused the enthusiasm of: her
owner that he straightway established a‘
large and costly racing stable. Among his
3
purchases was the .famous high priced
yearling colt King Thomas, for whom he
paid $47,000,.and who as a racer has been
the most ignoniinious failure the turf has
known in latter years. .
But at the same time that be bought
King Thomas Senator Hearst also secured
another yearliiigu'l‘ournanient—who was
‘ destined to become the best race horse of
his age and year and to make his owner
famous asa turfman. In 1890, as a 3—year-
old. Tournament. started twenty-one times
and won eight. Among‘his victories were
the Realization stakes and Omnium handi--
cap a Sheepshead Bay, the Omnibus and
Choice stakes at Monmouth Park, and the
Jerome, Mosholu, Hickory and New R0-
chelle stakes at“ Morris park. His total
winnings for the year were 889,755. Among
Senator Hearst’s other horses were Yose-
mite, Rhono and Ballarat.
All these horses, as well as the 2-year-olds
in the stable, were. entered in various stakes
for 1891 in the name of Hearst & 00., so
that the death of the senator will not ren-
der them void, as was the case with the
late Mr. Belmont’s entries. It is under—
stood that the son of the dead turfmaii
will continue the racing stable.
FIFTY-FIRST CONGRESS.

Charged with Kidiiaping. ,
NEW YORK, Mai-ch 2,—August Elbogen,
theatrical agent at 34 East Fourth street,
was arrested Saturday morning on a
charge of kidnaping. The warrant was
issued by Recorder Smyth, on the com-
plaint of John C. Reckwik, of 146 West
Tenth street. Reckwik’s daughter Jennie
was one of the girls induced, it is alleged,
by Elbogen to go to New Orleans and en-
ter the concert saloon of Schoenhausen,
Platt- 8:, Co. \Vhen Jennie, with the two
other girls, arrived at New Orleans and
learned the character of the place to which
they had been consigned they applied to
the Home for the Friendless there and
were sent back home. Elbogen was held
in $5,000 bail.
A Race Fight Imminent.
TRINIDAD, 0010., March 2.——The trouble
in the Vermijo country, N. M., over the
assassination of Ofiicer Russell has de
veloped a new phase. All white settlers
in the valley have been notified by the Mex-
icans to leave. If they refuse to go they
must take the consequences. A night or
two ago the hay stacks of Thomas Gillum,
one of the oldest settlers in the valley, were
set on fire, and it was with difficulty the
dwelling and outbuildings were saved.‘
The whites will not leave and have organ-
ized to' protect themselves, and it now
looks as if the killing of Russell were only
the beginning of what promises to be a
bloody race fight.
Three Killed by an Explosion.
CHARLESTON, Mo., March 2.:—The boiler
of James Frigates’ sawmill, located nine
miles south of here, exploded, killing J efl
Cobb, Charles Cobb and John Dawdy. The
body of Charles Cobb was thrown 700 feet
in the air, and one leg was picked up in a
cornfield 100 yards from the body. Four
other millers were dangerously wounded.
Lack of water in the boiler is supposed to
have caused the explosion.
Murdered by His Little Brothers.
LOUISIANA, Ky., March 2.—A 16-year-old
boy named Wright was killed at his home
in Pike county by two of his younger
brothers, aged 12 and 14 years. They placed
a gun against his head while he lay in bed
asleep and literally blew out his brains. *
The only reason assigned for the deed is
that they were persuaded by an older broth‘
ci' to commit the crime.
, DIore Indictments Against Gibson.
CHICAGO, March 2.—The grand jury
brought in four more indictments against
George J. Gibson, of the whisky trust—two
against him personally and two against
him and other parties unknown. In all
the cases the charges were for attempting
to commit arson and feloniously procuring
gunpowder and dynamite for unlawful
purposes. .

The Remarkable Attempt of James
Quinn, of Philadelphia.
As a. Result of Broodlng Over Imaginary
Sins He Decided to Do Penance by
Self Crucifixion—The Second In-
stance of the Kind on Record.
PHILADELPHIA, March 2. —— With the
marks of the cruel nails on both hands
and feet, James Quinn, an old man, lay on
a‘ cot in the Philadelphia hospital suffer-
ing from wounds self inflicted while seek«
ing to crucify himself as his Saviour was
crucified by his persecutors. Though the
pain of the wounds must have been in-
tense, the old man seemed not to notice it,
but to suffer great mental agony over
imaginary sins. He clasped his hands in
constant prayer in penance for his mis-
deeds.
Quinn’s attempt at self crucifixion,
which is only the second instance of its
kind known, came as the culmination of
long religious brooding and other troubles
which had unhinged his mind. He lives
at No. 1,104 McIlvany street, a. little thor-
oughfare near Eleventh and Carpenter
streets, and is 64 years old. Formerly he
worked as a sawyer, but had to give this
up because of injuries to his hands, and
for some time he has been able to do very
little. For years he has been a religious
enthusiast, but his family had never seen
any reason to suppose that his monomania
on this subject would lead him to do any
injury to himself.
Remarkable Fortitude.
For the past week he has been unusually
wild in his religious ideas and on Thurs-
day night the climax came. Rising while
the rest of the family were yet asleep, he
began his preparations for his astonishing
performance. Roughly marking out the
form of a cross upon the floor, and procur-
ing an old hammer and some nails, he was
ready for the self sacrifice.
Placing a. nail upon his right foot a sharp
blow from the hammer drove it clean
through. Great as the agony must have
been he probably made no sound, knowing
that it would arouse his mother, son or.
daughter. Another nail was placed upon
the other foot, but the blow from the ham-
mer failed to drive it through. It struck a
bone, in which it became imbedded. Lay.
ing his left hand flat upon the floor, with
the palm upward, he drOve a third nail in-
to the flesh. While seeking to drive a
fourth nail into the right hand, which
must necessarily have been a very difficult
operation, considering the laceration of his
other hand, the family were awakened,
and Quinn was prevented from completing
the job.
But Slightly Injured.
The skin of his right hand was only
slightly abraded. The nails were drawn
from the left hand and right foot, but that
in the left foot was stuck so fast in the
bone that it could not be removed.
Word was sent in the morning to Dr. D.
J. Laughlin, of No. 1,307 Ellsworth street,
asking him to visit Quinn, and he did so
soon afterward. He found him trying to
get the nail out of his foot, using some
rough instrument. The doctor made the
same attempt with an old piece of pincer,
which broke the nail off in the bone, This
made it necessary to take Quinn to the
Pennsylvania hospital, where Dr. Frank
A. Gummey was obliged to cut deep into
the bone to reach the broken nail.
He Becomes ,Violent.
\Vhile the doctor was engaged in this
painful work, during which Quinn took
no anaesthetics, the latter prayed constant-
ly and fervently, begging forgiveness for
'his many imaginary sins. Finally he be-
came so violent in his actions that a police
patrol wagon was sent for and he was
taken out to the Philadelphia hospital. At
first he was placed in the men’s surgical
ward, but it was soon seen that his chief
trouble was mental rather than physical,
and he was removed to the ward for the
insane. A careful examination of the
wounds made by the nails showed that
they were not serious. His feet and the
injured hand were bandaged and the best
of care taken of him.
In the prayers and supplications Quinn
was‘heard to say that for forty years he
had planned this act of penance for his
sins and at last he had done it. He ap-
peared satisfied with the deed. As his
mental trouble appears to be deep seated,
he will probably be taken to the Norris-
town Insane hospital for treatment.
Quinn’s attempt at self-crucifixion has
only one parallel case, that of an English—
man who by the exercise of great in-
genuity succeeded not only in nailing his
hands and feet to a cross, but in ‘ actually
throwing himself and the cross from a. win-
dow. The result was more serious than
that in Quinn’s case is likely to be, as
there is nodoubt of the latter’s recovery
from his wounds, if not from his peculiar
hallucinations.
