One of the important measures to the credit of Foster as a member of Con- gress was his famous report on the de- lay in completing the Washington | monumenty and it was due to his ef- forts more than to those of any other man that this triumph of engineering skill was finally completed as a lasting monument to the founder of the repub- lie. In 1891 he was appointed by President Harrison Secretary of the Treasury and two important acts while serving the Government in this capacity will always be remembered. Not long after taking office he distinguished himself by successfully adjusting the 41 per cent loan which matuged September 1, }18¢1, 1t is said that he was the first Secretary of the Treasury to negotiate a public loan at so low 2 rate as 2 per | cent.

The bullet took effect in the left temple. About 7 o'clock the night telegraph opérator saw two men pass in the di- rection from which the shots were heard a few minutes later. He also heard the scuffling preceding the shots, but as there was an entertainment tak- ing place at a schoglhouse near where the shooting occurred he thought it was probably some of the young men engaging in a friendly scuffle. About an hour later the body of the dead boy was found in a sitting position leaning against a shed in the rear of a aloon south of the railroad station andabout eighty rods from where the shofs were heard. There was a revolver 'in the right hand of the dead boy with his thumb on the trigger, but there was no powder marks on the face. Later his hat was found under a clothes line in the rear of Judge Bouton’s barn and not far from the gchoelhouse. The body had evidently been carried about eighty rods and placed where found.
