Former President Deeply Shocked by the Death of His Friend. PRINCETON, N. J.,, Feb. 2.—Grover Cleveland was deeply moved when he learned of Mr. Whitney's death. To a press representative he said: “The news of Mr. Whitney's death has greatly shocked me. As I think of him my mind, passing beyond recent years, dwells upon the day of my asso- ciation with him in high official duty, and recalls the time when I had the opportunity to enjoy his unreserved in- timacy and friendly companionship. Ixhw exigencies of life have forbidden recent close intercourse. | “Mr. Whitney had more calm, force- { ful efficiency than any man I ever knew. In work that interested him he actually seemed to court difficulties and |to find pleasure and exhilaration in | overcoming them. His conquest over | the obstacles he encountered in under- taking to build up our navy afforded | him greater delight than the contem- plation of the great results he achieved | in his department of the Government. His judgment was quick, clear and as- tonishingly accurate; and when it was | called into action his mental poise was s0 complete that neither passion or ir- ritation could lead him astray. * “While I remember all this with ad- miration and affection, T recall with more tender sentiment Mr. Whitney's | devotion to his friends, his extreme ! consideration for all with whom he | came in contact, his thoughtfulness for the ease and comfort of others and his ready impulse to help those who need- ed help. I mourn the death of a friend Our relations have never changed, but | of whom it can be truthfully said that traits of a high order and loving quali- ties of heart that grappled him to his friends with hooks of steel.” SO SRS OTABLE CAREER. WHITNEY After Founding the New Navy He De- clined All Political Honors. Willlam Collins Whitney, member of President Cleveland’s first Cabinet, and the father of “the new navy,” was born July 5, 1841, in the quaint little town of Conway, Mass. He was of good descent on both sides of his house. Starting from John Whitney, who came to New ]England in 1635, he could number among his ancestors many who were famed for prowesS in the earlier war times and especially his revolutionary grandfather, General Josiah Whitney, born in 1713—cied 1806—who fought with the British and Colonial troops at Crown Point in 1774 and yet was one of the first to take up arms for the colonies in 1776. He went into the war in a modest capacity and came out, at the end as a brigadier general (1783). All along down Mr. Whitney's ancestors in the male line were men of prom- inence in the community and State in which they lived. On his mother’s side his ancestry went back to William Weak and unhealthy kidneys are responsible for more | understand how it has cured thousands in the more ordi- sickness and suffering than any other disease; therefore, | nary and less strenuous walks of life. Swamp-Root is pleasant to take, and is used in the leading hospitals, recom- mended by physicians in their private practice, and is taken by doctors themselves because they recognize in Swamp-Root the greatest and most successful remedy that science has ever been able to discover or compound. No matter how many doctors you have tried, no matter how much money you may have spent on other medicines, you really owe it to yourself and to your family to at least give Swamp-Root a trial. Its strongest friends to-day are those who had almost given up hope of ever becoming well again.

Soon after his grad- { uation he began the pra- -e of la® in New York City, the Mecca and the grave of many a young aspirant for honors in his chosen profession. He soon made his mark at the bar and attracted attention outside his pro- fession. In 1871 he was active in or- ganizing a Young Men's Democratiz Club in New York, and after filling sev- eral other offices was appointed Cor- poration Counsel in 1875, and by re- forms within and without his office did much for the current and future wel- fare of the city that had so honored him. He took an active part in the campaign that elected Samuel J. Tilden Governor of New York in 1874. In 1882 he resigned his office in order to devote his attention to his private business, which was large and remun- erative. Already cognizant of his merit and efficiency, in. March, 1885, President Cleveland offered to Mr. Whitney the naval portfolio, which was accepted. After a course in the schools of his vicinity young Whitney wert through Hampton, Mass., and then entered Yale College, from which he was graduated in June, He then spent two years at and ' In his first report to Congrcss he pre- sented a plan for the reorganization of the Navy Department, for which, after being put in action, it was claimed that “for the first time in the history of the navy it has been.possible to pre- parc complete statements by classes, of receipts and expenditures, of sup- plies throughout the entire service and of the total valuation of supplies on hand for issue at all shore stations.” Proceeding to the construction of the “new navy,” with which his name should always be identifieq, he aimed at putting the United States again in the posit.on which it once enjoyed as a naval p wer and above everything else making it independent of the rest of the world for supplies in case of .war. To him was due the good condition of the United States navy shown during the Lpanish-American War. When he went into office he found that neither armor nor forgings for high power guns nor rapid-fire guns could be pro- ducel o this side of the Atlantic. He insisted on American product and when he went out of office we were getting from American workshops the best ar- mor and guns that were ‘'made in the worl. When he retired from office in 1889 the nucleus.of the new navy,including, ameng other powerfully efficient ves- sels, the beautiful and cerviceable KIRBY LUMBER (OMPANT FAILS Big Corporation and the Houston 0il Company Go Into Hands of Receivers i g S ASSETS ABOVE LIABILITIES AT S, Run Is Started on Planters’ and Merchants’ Bank, but De- positors Are Readily Paid HOUSTON, Tex., Feb. 2—B.

And the result is such that I| am prepared to say that in ten years| we shall have the best navy in the | world.” After his retirement from office in | 1890 Whitney took an- active part in national politics, especially contribut- | ing to the re-election of his former | chief, Mr. Cleveland, in 1892, but for| himself resolutely declined all political | preferment. In later years he was out of public life, except that he became interested in such international sporting events as yachting and horse racing, which more or less kept his name before the public. Mr. Whitney belonged to all the | leading clubs in New York City and to some in other parts of the coumry,l He was also a member of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Chil- idren and a,trustee of the Peabody | Museum of Yale. He was besides, di- | rector in many of the larger corpora- | tions of New York City: In 1869 Mr. Whitney was married to { Miss Flora Payne, daushter of Henry | B. Payne, United States Senator from Ohio. Of this union were born Marry | Payne Whitney, who was married in 1896 to Gertrude, daughter of Cor- nelius Vanderbilt; Pauline, who was married in 1895 to Almeric Hugh Paget, descended from a long line of English peers; Payne Whitney and Dorothy Whitney. In 1892 Whitney contracted a sec- ond matrimonial alliance "with Miss Elite S. Randolph of East Court, Wilt- | shire, England, who soon after died of injuries received from falling from her horse in the hunting fleld.
