NEW YORK, March .~—By the scant margin of six mionths, it be- came known today, the former Mrs: Julius Fleischmann, now the third Mrs. Jay O'Bri ., lost a fortune va- riously estimated to be between $25,000,000 and $50,000,000, a_fortune that would have put her, in her own right, among the wealthiest women in_the world.

Addresses also Harding, Wilson, Knox, By the Asociated P The Capital is astir for the inau- guration of Calvin Coolidge, but amid its glad preparations there are many stern reminders of that other cere- mony four years ago, when Warren Harding rode confidently along to- ward the summit—and the end—of his path of gloxy. Looking backward now, it is as if the Grim Reaper had taken a place unin- vited in the very entourage of the new President. For the first time a Chief Executive and his wife both have passed into the great beyond within the brief span of years for which he was chosen to lead his peo- ple. With them in death is a com- pany of their dearest friends and nearly all of the great figures who were assembled about them on their day of triumph. Within the four- dent Coolidge, tol touch his own family Cabinet, take away two of his prede- cessors in office, and still forever the voices of several others who shared with him the high responsibilities of government. Of the many who were prought to Washington to be chlef advisors to Mr. Hardiing just four years ago, only a handful remain in official life. The of personal and political friends he gathered about him here has sepa and almost disappeared ‘om the Capital. Among the ten Cabinet members who took office on March 4, 1921, only four will sit in the Cabinet of the new administra- tion Perhaps the closest personal asso- ciate of the dead President and his wife was their neighbor and family doctor, Charles E. Sawyer, who be- came the White House physiclan. On all occasions from the time of Mr. Harding’s nomination for the presi- dency these three were together, and ear cycle Presi- D DG TESSSCOODE Lodge and White Among Missing—Many Others Have Disappeared From Public Life After Brief Tenure. together they came to Washington for the inauguration. Now all three rest in their last sleep at Marion. On inauguration day s 1921 four men rode together between the crowded sidewalks of Pennsylvania avenue—Warren Harding, a picture of high hope and solemn purpose on the threshold of great honors and great responsibilities; Woodrow Wilson, re- tiring to the solace of private life after eight momentous years in the White House; Senator Philander C. Knox, a former Secretary of State, chosen to act for that day for the Senate of the United States, and for- mer Speaker Joseph G. Cannon, rep- resenting the House. Of these four death has taken the first three, and “Uncle Joe” Cannon has retired from the stage of national life, where for so long he was a towering figure. Arrived at the Capitol, the inaug: ral party was received in the Presi- dent's room by Senator Henry Cabot Lodge, majority leader of the Senate. A little later, on the east portico, Chief Justice White adminidtered the presidential oath of office. Both of these, too, were looking on the last inaugural ceremony they were to be- hold with earthly eyes. Shadowed by Death. One Cabinet officer, Secrotary Wal- lace, died during tfie term for which |he and his crlef covenanted to labor together in the public service. The same ,period has seen the passing of. one of the notable figures on modern American political history, a former colleague of Mr. Harding in the Sen- ate and a force with whom he reck- oned in the trials of party leadership —Senator Boise Penrose. Champ Clark lay dead a block away from the Capltol while the Harding inau- gural was in progress, and his fu- neral was held in the House of Rep- DD DD OO & ident Coolidge, and among these four Mr. Weeks alone was a personal friend of the dead Chief Executive before his call to highest office. . Time has thinned littie Dy little the ranks of the Ohlo friends sum- moned by Mr. Harding to lesser posts in Washington. _Attorney = General Daugherty, the Warwick of the ad- ministration; George B. Christian, jr., the President's next-door neighbor in Marion and later his secretary at the White House; Fred E. Scobey, a friend of many years, named Director of the Mint; Heber Votaw, Mr. Hard- ing's brother-in-law, whom he ap- pointed Superintendent of Prisons— these and others almost as near to him have all passed out of the plo- ture. Roy A. Haynes, the Ohlo editor named Prohibition Commissioner, and A. T. Seymour of Columbus, who is assistant to the Attorney General, likewise are expected soon to say good-bye to Washington. True to a pronouncement that fol- lowed close upon his assumption of the presidency, Mr. Coolidge sought to retain in office the appointees of his predecessor, almost without ex- ception. But the heavy odds of cir- cumstance lay against that purpose from the first. The same destiny that struck Harding down In San Fran- cisco had decreed that within a space of time incréditably brief nothing but a_memory should be left of that DAY $200 TRIP TO HOLLYWOOD By the Sea ACCOMMODATED ST.
