The special car waa coupled up between
tha baggage car and smoker and the doora
locked to prevent passengers from entering.
Three offlcera aat down with the prisoners,

widely known as an author and lesturer,

died auddenly last night of angina pec
Schuyler Van Rensselaer. Mr. Oilder was
taken 111 Wednesday, Nevember 3. during
tha delivery ef a lecture on Tennyson be
fore the Toung Men's Christian associa
tion at Orange, N. J. Assistance was
summoned from New Tork by telephone.
Mr. Gilder waa up and about the follow
ing day, though ha suffered occasional
Feliurcs of sharp pain. His physicians, on
the second diagnosis, realised that the na
ture of his malady was grave, but they
did not acquaint Mr. Glider with the
truth.
This morning Mr. Gilder was resting
easily. No fears for htm were felt and a!
noon his wife left the house. Shortly after
1 o'clock she was recalled by an urgent
message. Pr. Joseph Collins and Pr. Theo
dore Janeway were called tn consultation
with Pr. Hodgson, and . tt waa realised
that Mr. Bllder had only a few hours to
live. He suffered great pain and opiates
ere administered . freely to ease hia dis
tress. The end came at o'clock.
The funeral will be held from the Church
or the Ascension and the burial will be at
Bordentewn, N. J., where Mr. Oilder was
born. The date and tha pallbearera have
not been named.
Sketch of His Career.
Hichard Watson Gilder early showed his
bent tor letters. Born at Berdentown, N.
J., In ItAi, one of eight children, ha was
writing, setting tha type for and publish
ing the St. Thomaa Register at Flushing.
Long Island, when he waa U years old.
Four yeara later he united wlih two young
colleagues In the production of a campaign
newspaper supporting Bell and Evarts (or
presidential honors. His Interest In poli
tics carried hlin Into tha great civil atrug
gla then raging. While still In hia teens
he enlisted with Laudis' Philadelphia bat
tery and served during the campaign of
is U, when Pennsylvania waa Invaded by
the confederate forces.
The death of bis father cut short a sub
sequent novitiate In tha law, and, thrown
on hia own reaourcea, the young man be
came first a railway paymaster and later
an editor once more. In "My Journalistic
Experiences." ha tells how his duUes as
editor of tho Newark Morning Register, a
dally, and "Hours at Home," a New York
monthly, published by tho Ecrlhners. proved
too exacting fer his strength. Moreover,
the Register was losing money, ha wrote.
"Just as fast aa a newspaper can lose
money, which la faater than anything
cUo in the world."
He sold out his Interest, but tho ac
quaintances he made stood Mm In good
stead, and when Scrlbner's Monthly was
started, absorbing "Hours at Home," Mr.
Glider found himself, at the age ot 26, In
a position of honor and high literary In
fluence. For eleven years he waa man
aging editor of Scrlbner's, under Dr Hol
land, and when at Pr. Holland's death the
magaxlno underwent a further reorganiza
tion and a change of ownership, Mr. Gli
der became In lfSl editor-ln-chlef of tho
Century Magazine, a position he had until
hia death.
Better known as a poet oven than editor,
Mr. Glider has published six books of
verse, among which are sonnets and lyrics
which have found a setting tn the Ameri
can anthology, and have been rated by
critics aa sure to pass Into the heritage
of tha language. His best works are:
"Tho Celestial Passion," "Lyrics." "Two
Worlds," "Tha Great Remembrance."
Palestine," "Poems and Inscilptlona,"
Christmas Wreath" and "A Book

for Growth of Taxation in France
and Great Britain.
PARIS, Nov. 18. France, t like England
and Germany, is havlni; Its budgetary
crisis. More than t4O,(KiO,0u0 additional tax
ation Is carried in the pending budget, the
new taxan being principally levied on au
tomobiles, tobacco, wines and Inheritances.
In the lust mentioned there la an Increase
of J.0,000,000 over last year.
Much opposttiun hus developed and the
liquor Interests have already taken part
In one big public demonstration. Many
deputies shrink from meeting their consti
tuents In tho coming elections. Neverlher
leas the cabinet remains firm, contending
that pending schemes for workmen's pen
sions and other popular measures Involve
expenditures which should be met by tax
ation and not by loans, and has decided to
demand a vote of confidence next week.
M. Juares, leader of the socialists In the
Chamber of Deputies, today laid the re
sponsibility for tha present European
budget crises upon the crushing "peace
armaments" being maintained owing to
rivalry between Great Britain and Ger
many. He declared that unless It ceased it would
result in a general financial collapse, and
he urged the necessity of an Anglo-Franco-German
entente, which would permit of a
reduction In military expenditure in favor
of social reforms.

The long distance wireless -eoord waa
broken to smithereens last Wednesday
when the operator on tha Pacific Mall
liner Korea chatted with the United Wire
less station in San Francisco, 4,720 miles
away. 1 .. . t
This feat was the mora remarkable
because lung distance wireless communi
cation has been accomplished heretofore
with high-powered apparatus that la
of about ?& to 50 .kilowatt power, a kilo-,
watt being a thousand times the unit of
electrical power. The Koreas operator,
Mr, Phelps, used an apparatus of S. kilo
watt power.
UesUles, tho record-breaking message
was sent from the usual "tower" aboard
a ship, lean than 100 feet above tha sea
level.
As a result of this accomplishment, R.
P. Schwerln, Vice-President and manager
of the Pacific Mall Company, will have
the Vnlted Wireless apparatus Installed
on all tho liners of hi company. Mr.
Brhwerln believed that wireless Wss use-
sent at all times for 1.600 miles at least.'
Ha wait VRFtly surprised and pleased with
the Korea's meusage carried three times
that distance.
Another remarkable fact Is that the
Korea was in wireless communication
with America and Japan at the eame'
time. The Korea sailed from 'Frisco Oct.
20. After stopping at Ilonalulu, her opera-
I tor sent this message on Nov. t:
'8 P. M 2,206 miles west of Honolula.
In touch with Japan tonight. All wall."
At that time the distance from Ban
Franclnco waa 4,306 miles. This message
waa also picked up by the Government
wireless operator on Karrallon Island,
forty miles outside of Golden Oate.
It was believed that this would be about
the limit of tha Korea's wireless capa
bilities, but when at S o'clock Wednesday
evening a me.nage was received at the
Hun Francisco station giving the steamer's
position at 1.622 miles went of Ilonalulu
or about 4.720 miles from Ban FrancHoo,
the possibility of keeping In touch with
tho ship until she reached the Chinese
coast began to be considered. Mr. Phelps,
talking with the operator In Ban Frajiclaco
station, uald ha believed that, unless some
unexpected atmospheric conditions arose,
he would communicate with the west
coaxt of the United States when the ship
