George Ullman, his manager, who accompanied him to the hospital, no one but the doctors and nurses was admitted to.the sick roem, until last night when Joscph Shneck, head of the United Artists’ Film corporation was admitted for a brief farewell visit. Gifts, ranging from flowers to holy water and religious relics were sent him by hundreds of persons from all over the country. The only state- ment made by the acter after he went to the hospital was one of thanks for the sympathy of his ad- mirers. Ex-Wives Solicitous During his illness both Valentino's tormer wives, Jean Acker, screen actress, and Winifred Hudnut, (Natcha Rambova) a dancer, were especlally solicitous as to his condi- tion, and Pola Negri, film star to whom he had been reported engag- ed, called frequently by telephone from Los Angeles. Although the screen star's latest visit to New York was to end in tragedy his arrival here was marked by countrywide amusement occa- sion by a Chicago editorial to which Valentino took angry exception. While passing through Chicago on his way hers the actor read an edi- torial in the Chicago Tribune which linked his name with the use of pink powder puffs by men and which he interpreted as casting aspersions on his manhood immediately, in a letter to the aper, challenged the anon mous editorial writer to a due “American fashion,” fists to replace o rapier. On arriving in New | York he gave interviews in which he told in detail about his pugllistic intentions if he could ever establish the identity of the powder puff man. Th> name of the writer was not re- vealed however, and the duel failed to materialize. Valentino did not know iying until Just a short time bef = passed away, according to Ullman, and had confidently assured his manager that he would be back in his hotel suite in a few days. As Valentino's life slowly ebb crowd gathered in the street outsi the hospital in such proportions that hospital authorities had to ask he police to disperse the —men, women and children. Telephone operators in the hos- pital were besieged with an endless of telephone calls concerning actor's condition. Telegrams ex- pressing sympathy poured into the hospital after his death. | Death, according to Dr. Harold D. | Mecker, who performed the double operation for appendicltis and gas tric ulcer, was directly due to poi- con from septic pneumonia and sep- tic endocarditis.

Marries Again Before his divorce from Jean Acker became final, Valentino mar- rled Winifred DeWolfe Hudnut, dancer and adopted daughter of the cosmetic manufacturer, May 13, 1922, at Mexicali, Lower California. He was arrested and charged with bigamy and released on bonds. Later the charge was dropped. The couple were re-married March 15, 1923, at Crown Point, Ind.
