DRANK HEAVILY OF LATE. Wife Had to Leave Him and Go to Her Parents, and His Mother Is Prostrated by His Death. George Waldo Jordan, proprietor of fhe George W. Jordan Steam Carpet- Cleaning Works, and living until re- wently with his wife at No, 238 West (Mwenty-first street, was found dead Jn his bed in the Herald Square Hotel J, P. MORGAN WILL RETIRE. Report that the Great Financier Will Soon Relinquish Control of Vast Interests. HEALTH SAID TO BE PQOR. Story Which Comes Via Cleve- land Says George W. Per- kins Has Been Chosen to Succeed Morgan. CLEVELAND, 0., Aug. 1—A New York despatch recelved here to-day says: “Wall street 1s discussing a rumor that J. Plerpont9 Morgan Is to retire from the management of the vast interests in his hands, and that formal announcement of his retirement will be made when he re- to-day. From the notes he left and| ‘Uns from Europe. Financiers say tsat because of an empty carbolic acid bottle and the tell-tale acid burns whout the mouth it was evident he had committed suicide. Jordan’s father, W. H, Jordan, died B year ago and left most of the large fortune he had made in the carpet- cleaning business to his son. He also left him the business. To his wife, the suicide’s mother, who is living at No. 119 West Eighty-third street, he left that house, which is an ex- reptionally valuable piece of property, besides an annuity sufficient to main- tain her as long as she lived. Prosperity Ruined Him, Those who knew him say that pros- perity ruined the son. He is said to have gone to many excesses during the year. His wife returned to ner home in Baitimore and his mother became sick from worry, and she is now prostrated by tae“news of his suicide, The letters, which were unsealed and on the dresser, were dated July B1. One of them read: “He who dicth for his country ts a hero; “But he who dieth for his family’s eake ts a greater hero.” Another note read: “Notify S. M. Hook & Son, No. 710 hth avenue, New York. Telephone No. 50) Thirty-eighth street. “And also Ancient Lodge No. 724, F. & WALDO JORBAN, ify Wife and Mother.? The third note was: “To Whom It May Concern: should find me dead, kindly notify my owife, Mrs. George W. Jordan, No. 1606 Millton avenue, Baltimore; also Mrs. W. JH. Jordan, No, 119 West Bighty-third street, GEORGP W. JORDAN," Ifany one private information regading Morgan's health give much color to the rumor. “So definite is the story that It gives the name of George W. Perkins as the man who {s to succeed Morgan in dl- recting the affairs of the million and biil- fon dollar aggregations controlled by the big banker. Morgan's continued stay in Europe, his repeated visits to famous physicians and health resorts, all lend color to the story of falling health. The tremendous strain of revent years has worn out the great trust promoter, and he finds him- self at a point where further work is impossible. It is said that Mr. Morgan will retain an advisory connection, George W. Perkins, who is named as the future king of the street, has been Morgan's right hand man for two years. He Is but forty years old, and has spent nearly all of these years in the life insurance business. He began in Cleveland ten years ago. Two years ago he was paid a salary of $300,000 per year to become Morgan's right hand man, He {s Chairman of the Finance Committee of the Steel the Northwestern Trust.

Errors by New Yorkers Gave Victory to Don- ovan’s Men — With Mathewson in the Box for Second Half of the Double Header Giants Begin with a Rush, Scoring Three Runs in First Two Innings: (Special to The Evening World.) POLO GROUNDS, Aug. 1.—It Patsy Donovan ever wishes to change his vo- cation he would make a fine character actor in a production of "Dr. Jekyl and Mr, Hyde.” He played the part this afternoon and such critics as Fred Knowles and “Pop” Bell said he was great. It was just 12.80 o'clock, The Hon, P. D. stood on the club-house porch view- ing the heavens. Heavy rain clouds hovered about. A smile spread over Patsy's face. The rain began falling and Patsy rubbed his hands gleefully and laughed out loud. Folks who were stand- ing out at the grounds gates heard him, so loud was he in his expression of goodwill. Everybody wae his friend, and the way he heaped compliments on the New York weather man must have made that individual's right ear tingle. Shy on Pitcher ‘That was all because Patsy didn't the idea of playing two games this ternoon. Ordinarily too many games cannot be played to suit the St. Louts team’s chief. The more the merrier ls his motto, But this time found him short on pitchers, and who to work against the Giants in a double-header was a problem to him. One oould most see gray hairs budding in his head as he pondered over the question. Stull more trying was it when he thought of the double-header that his boys have to play In boston to-morrow. Poor Patsy! But now comes the big fellow's enactment of the Dr. Hyde role.

Then he grew hysterteal, He was wild in his enunciation, and now ard then could be heard smoky descrip- tions of everybody in general and the weather man In particular. ‘That fellow's left ear must have then been experiencing that tingling sensa- tion. Rain Did No Harm. But luck was against Patsy and his tribe. The few drops of rain which fell did not undo th efine condition of the diamond. The Glants sauntered out on it bright and early. They did no morning work and ‘had to joosen their muscles and put keen sights on their batting eyes that they might prove double ‘winners before the sun sank into the western horizon or behind some of the clvuds which still lingered above.
