NEW YORK, July 14—Mrs. Ida A. Flagler is dead, leaving a fortune of $12,000,000 accumulated from a $1,000,- 000 trust fund created for her by the late Heary M. Flagler when he divorced her in 1901 on the grounds of incurable insanity. She died Saturday of cerebral hemor- thage in her private cottage on the grounds of a sanitarium at Central Val- ley, N. Y., and was buried yesterday in Cypress Hills Cemetery, Brooklyn. She was at the sanitarium when Flagler obtained a divorce in Florida under a special act of the Legislature, as the. State statutes do not recognize insanity as a cause for divorce. The marriage was in 1883. The trust fund consisted largely of Standard Oil security, dividends from which multiplied the original sum 12-fold. Flagler was one of the founders of Standard Ofl. ‘The principal heirs are two nephews, George W. Taylor and Willlam W. Tay- lor, and a grandniece, Ruth E. Taylor of Pasco, Wash. Flagler, who in addition to his ofl in- terests was the builder and owner of the Florida East Coast Railway, mar- ried again. After his death in 1913 his widow married Robert W. Bingham, publisher of the Louisville Courier- has since died. CASTENS ANNUAL JULY SALE LUGGAGE ‘THIS is an event of much interest to every one who travels with smart luggage.
