PA8BDENA, Cal., April 4.-FredeHck
W. Weyerhauser, tho multt-mllllonalre
Minnesota lumberman, died today at his
winter hqme at Oak Knoll, aged 79. Mr.
Weyerhauser was stricken ten days ago
with a severe cold. Threatening
symptoms developed, and several times he
sank to the very verge of death, but ral
lied, and yesterday appeared to be all but
recovered,
Mr. "Weyerhauser'a body was sent east
at noon aboard a limited train, bound for
Rock Island,. 111., his old home, for inter
ment.
Mr. Weyerhauser caught cold Sunday a
week ago -while attending church. On the
following Wednesday his condition be
came so alarming that his children were
sent for. Three physicians were called
and remained in constant attendance day
and night They managed to overcome
recurrent sinking spells until shortly after
6 o'clock this morning, when the patient
sank into a coma and passed away at 8:30
o'clock.
His sons, John, Frederick, Rudolph and
Charles, and his daughters, Mrs. Mor
garett -Jewett, Mrs. W. B. Hill and Mn
S. a Davis, were at the bedside at the
end.
The final sinking pell came at a time
when it- was believed Mr. Weyerhauser
would recover. Several days ago he. ap
peared to be on the verge of death, but
resorts to oxygen rallied him, and there
after he , appeared to improve rapidly.
Tho only disquieting symptom was an un
certain heart action, and the physicians
believed yesterday they had finally over
come this. But this morning It recurred,
and neither oxygen nor any other stimu
lant would avail.

only discovered by tho people of the na

whether ho was richer than John D.

riches is not known. He started in tho
lumber business at Rock Island, BL, In
the early 'COs.
Mr. Weyerhauser dominated the- lumber
industry of the United States during the

Erie county. Pa., when Frederick was 18
years old.
In early life Mr. Weyerhauser decided
he would become a brewer and Went to
work at U a month. He gave up tho
brewing idea finally because, as he ex
pressed It, "I realise, how many brewers
become their own best customers."
Farming was the next attempt at a sal-'
ary of $13 a month. After four years at

estimate made by State Forester Elliott
the Umber holdings of the late Frederick

acres. These lands are scattered through
the state, but the' largest holdings are in
Klamath, Lake, Coos and Clackamas
counties. The state forester was unable
to estimate their exact value, but most
of the lands are of a choice character
and are worth many millions 'of dollars.
