STOCK MARKET NOT AFFECTED Financier Had Anticipated Death and Taken Steps to Safeguard His Interests. New York, May 21.—Henry H. Rog- ers, vice president of the Standard Oil company, moving spirit in the organi- zation of the Amalgamated Copper company, builder of railroads and phi- lanthropist, died at his home here at 7:20 o’clock yesterday morning from a stroke of apoplexy. Death came a little more than an hour after Mr. Rogers had arisen for the day, men- tioning to his wife that he was feeling ill. At 7 o’clock he lapsed into un- consciousness and before the family physician arrived he was dead. Mr. Rogers was sixty-nine years old. Mrs. Rogers, three married daughters, a son, H. H. Rogers, Jr., and Dr. W. J. Pulley, a physician who was hastily summoned, were at the bedside when the end came. Death Unexpected. While Mr. Rogers’ death was sud- den and unexpected, he had been in in- different health since he suffered an apoplectic stroke in 1907, and was al- most constantly under a physician’s HENRY H. ROGERS. care. His end at this time, however, was a great shock to his family and business associates, as Tuesday he was cheerful and apparently normal, even to the extent of going down to business in the morning, where he lunched as usual in the Standard Oil f | building. Funeral services will be held in this ‘|city at the Church of the Messiah, a | |Unitarian institution, of which the Rev. Dr. Robert Collyer, a_ lifelong _|friend of Mr. Rogers, is pastor, Friday ;|}morning. Dr. Collyer will conduct the services, after which the body will be taken to Fair Haven, Mass., Mr. Rog- '}ers’ native town, for interment. Did Not Affect Market. News of the financier’s death did not become generally. known until about two hours after it occurred. The stock exchange had no topened when the report reached Wall street, but with the opening there was hard- ly an appreciable effect on the mar- ket. After a decline at first in the stocks in which he was popularly sup- posed to be interested, conditions rapidly adjusted themselves, confirm- ing in a way that Mr. Rogers had in the last few months anticipated death and withdrawn from the market. It is known, in fact, that he had taken steps to safeguard his interests by placing his direct holdings in various corporations in other hands. Upon whose shoulders his burdens will rest hereafter is problematical, although close friends of the family were in- clined to think that this duty would fall to his son-in-law, Urben H. Broughten. 5 WILL NOT TRY GIRL SLAYER. Grand Jury Will Appoint Lunacy Com- mission for Louise Arbogast. St. Paul, May 21.—The case of Lou. ise Arbogast, accused of killing her father a week ago in their home on West Seventh street, will go to the grand jury. The latter will appoint a lunacy board and the defendant will be sent to an asylum without a trial. This is the disposition of the case definitely decided on yesterday morn: ing by the authorities. The members of the family and the relatives have consented to the ar. rangement made by the authorities for the disposal of the case. BABE KILLED IN INCUBATOR, Cork Blows Out of Hot Water Bottle, Fatally Scalding Infant. Long Beach, Cal., May 20.—The in. cubator forcing process failed tragi: cally when Richard de Spain, one oj the city’s most promising young in. yentors, tried it_on his two-months old baby. Yesterday the baby was taken from its. cradle and placed in the incubator. Soon after a cork blew out of a hot-water bottle and the baby |-was fatally scalded. It died in a few ‘moments. Y |HENRY H. ROGERS WAY ET CMB UP To S150 “Shorts” Who “ge 5 Settled Are Big Losers—Biggest Deal in History of the Market. Chicago, May 23.—More money was added to the already overflowing cof- fers of James ‘A. Patten, the wheat king, and his followers yesterday, when wheat for the May delivery touched the $1.31 mark, the highest mark attained by the product since the famous corner engineered by “Joe” Leiter eleven years ago was blossoming. The enormous Patten deal in May wheat will be closed out one week from today. Monday, May 31, will be celebrated as Memorial day. There will be no markets on that day. The May wheat deal must be settled be- fore the close of business on Satur- day, May 29. “Shorts” Are Anxious, The “shorts” in wheat for the May delivery have never counted days and hours as anxiously as they have these May days in Chicago. Already the “shorts” who have settled have been big losers. Those who have not set: tled see not a ray of hope before them. The hoisting of the price of May wheat yesterday was caused by another frantic rush of the “shorts” to cover. There are those on the Chicago board of trade who are making no se- cret of their predictions that May wheat will reach $1.50 before the mouth has closed, and Patten has likewise closed out the biggest deal in the history of the Chicago market.

Two Saloons Enjoined, Marshalltown, Iowa, May 23.—What is declared to be the entering wedge against the saloons of this city was entered, when Judge Parker, in the district court, issued injunctions against the owners of two North First street saloons, enjoining them from selling liquor.
