A DISTINGUISHED CAREER San Antonio, Tex., Fob. 20. Major Gfneral Frederick Funston. com mander of the Southern department of the I'nited Staies army since Feb ruary, 1915, died suddenly at a hotel here last night a few minutes after h had finished dinner. He collapsed whi seated m the lobby ot the hotel talk ing with friends and was ulavini with little Inez Silverherg of Des Moines, la., a guest with her Dareni at the hotel, when he fell unconscious Death was almost instantaneous licneral htinston was 51 vears old Ever since March. 1UI6. when h was placed in command of all United States forces on the Mexican border Ocneral l unston had worked at a unusual pace. At critica times border developments, he frcauentl remained on duty twenty-four hours ot tne twenty-lour, the handling ot regulars disposed ot at various sta tions on the border, the 1'crshine ex pedition and of late rearrangement o regular troops whle providing for the return of Natioi a Guardsmen have entailed an enormous amount of detail work, probably exceeding that which fell to any commanding general of the United States army since tlie civil war. Uulv todav Gen eral Funston completed orders for tne return ot the last of the guards men. Performed Difficult Tasks, The picturesque and dashing cap ture of Aguinaldo, the Filipino rebe chief, was the achievement which brought Funston prominently to the attention of the American people, bui he performed many services for his country besides thai which were probably more difficult. His admin istration of affairs in Vera Cruz, where he carried out the nresident's orders witn a nnn hand, simn'y 'hold ing the city, when every influence about was centered upon forcing the American army into actual fighting wun tne Mexicans, probably was the most notable ot nis career. The American troops had been i possession of Vera Cruz onlv a fe days when one of the Mexican gen erals sent in a message, saying in most polite terms that he was unable to longer restrain his troops, and that tney were about to advance and drive the Americans into the sea "If you can't hold your troops back. I can, ' was the laconic message that Funston sent back. Because of the amount of work which had fallen to him, General Funstons onlv relaxa. tion for nearly a year had been an oc casional dinner party with a fev friends. Returned fromj'rlp. Onlv recentlv General Funston re turned from an inspection trip, which took mm as tar as Nogales, Ariz. That, with one trip to Brownsville, Tex., and a brief visit to Austin. Tex.. last year, was the only occasion when he had been absent from his desk since the border troub e deve oned. Two weeks airo General Funston suffered .n attack of indittcition. lo use his Own expression, I fought it out aldiie." Later he placed him self under the care of Lieutenant Colonel W. M. Ireland of the med ical corps, Southern department, and regained normal health and spirits. "For three days," Colonel Ireland said tonight, "General Funston had been entirely well. Nevertheless, at dinner tonight, General Funston was particularly ab stemious and ate only sparingly of the simplest dishes. Colonel Ireland said: "General F'unston's death was caused by angina sclerosis of the arteries of the heart. Death was al most immediate and without pain." Colonel Malvern-Hill Barnum, Gen eral Funston's chief of staff, imme diately notified the War department of General Funston's death. News who is visiting her father in Califor nia, No arrangements for General F'unston's funeral have been made. The body was taken to a local un dertaking establishment. Comes as Shock. Washington, Feb. 19. Major Gen eral Funston's sudden death came as a great shock to high officials of the army and to President Wilson. He was one ot the distinguished com manders of the service, and one of whom greater things were expected in the future. 1 he youngest major gen eral of the line, vigorous and appar. ently healthy, he had been counted on by his superiors for many more years of active service. Ihe news reached the War depart ment late tonight in a brief dispatch from the headquarters ot the south' ner was being given to the president, Secretary Baker s home, where a din ner was being given to the President, with most ot the ranking army of ficers in Washington, among the guests. Baker's Statement. Secretary Baker made this state ment: General Funston s death is a loss to the army and a loss to the country, During the trouble on the Mexican border, his work has been difficult, ex acting and delicate. His conduct has been that of a soldier, and has exemplified the high tradition of the American army by his quick, intelli gent and effective action. Ihrough- out it all the sympathy between Gen eral Funston and the department has been complete and no shadow of dis agreement has arisen. I am deeply grieved personally it his death and feel that his loss to the country is very great." Major General Pershing, who has been in command of the El Paso dis trict since the withdrawal of the American expedition from Mexico, au tomatically will succeed to the duties of commander of the southern depart ment until an appointemnt has been made. Recently made a major gen eral, he is the only officer of that rank now assigned to the depart ment. . Pershing In Active Charge. As immediate successor to the com mand, General Pershing will have charge of the many details of the movement ot the remaining units of the National Guard ordered home from the border last Saturday. It is expected here that this movement. plans for which were worked out by General Funston, as virtually his last j MAJOR GENERAL OF U. S. WHO DIED IN SAN ANTONIO. i """'" lli.lllllfcltT. mi kH GEN. FREDERICK FUNSTON military duty, will go forward without interruption. When Funston won his rank brigadier as a reward for his spec tacular capture of Aguinaldo. the Philippine rebel chief, his active serv ice in the regular United Slates army hegan. lie speedily reached the top of Ihe list of brigadiers, hut when there were vacancies in the list of major generals, he was passed over no less than six times by rresiden Roosevelt and Taft. At times Funs ton almost despaired of further pro motion, but with characteristic tena city he stuck to the army. When Vera Cruz was occupied. Ma jor General Wood, chief of staff, im mediately selected Funston as the logical man for Ihe held command. Every army officer expected there would be fighting of the hard guerilla kintl, learned in the Philippines, and everyone agreed that when Funston landed in Vera Cruz, he "would start something." But when Funston unloaded his troops and relieved the navy of posses sion ot Ihe city, he learned that Presi dent Wilson's orders were that there was to be no aggressive movements. that the army was to watch and wait. The pressure on the little commander can only be realized by those who were with him in Vera Cruz in those critical hours. Thousands of Ameri cans thronged the city with the most extreme stories of conditions in the interior and urged that the army move on; enthusiasm for finishing the job was nign among the young officers. The outposta were insulted, even fired upon. American troops were kid napped by the Mexicans, one soldier was killed and burned, the camps were raided ty marauders, livery provoca tion to spur a fighting mar. to action was given, but Funston never forgot his orders whatever his own emotions might have been. He held down the situation and President Wilson made him a major general. His Career Remarkable, Funston. a native of Ohio and reared on a Kansas farm had a re markable career before he became a soldier. Few people knew that his first work was as a scientist with a bent toward botany. As an agent of the Department ot Agriculture m lttyi he took part in the Death Valley ex pedition: then he explored Alaska and the British northwest and crossed Alaska to the Arctic ocean and traveled from McKenzie river to Bering Sea, a journey of about 3.500 miles. He camped in the Klondike during the. winter of 1893 and then alone floated down the Yukon in a canoe, a journey of hundreds of miles through a wilderness without aeeing another living soul. Soon after that he resigned from the Department of Agriculture and traveled in Mexico. Helpa the Cubans. When the last Cuban insurrection roke out Funston applied to the revo lutionary junta in New York for serv- wnn the rebel armv. but the Cubans suspected him of being a spy or an agent of the United States Tun ing down violators of neutrality i laws, finally he convinced them of is intentions and tor many weeks in rooms on an out of the way street in the lower hast Side ot New York, Funston instructed recruits in the andling of machine guns, of which the Cubans were ignorant. Soon afterward he was taken into the Cuban army with a commission. Fighting Man in Cuba. Not until 1896, when the Cuban insurrection was at its height, did Frederick Funston become known throughout the United States as a first-class fighting man, but his friends in Kansas where, he spent his early manhood long had so class ified him. As a student at the University of Kansas, when he weighed less than 100 pounds, he conquered a 200 pound "bad man," who threatened him with a razor. To add to the giant's humiliation, Funston marched him through the streets of Lawrence, Kan., at the point of a revolver, to a police station. . A few years later, while city edi tor of a paper in Fort Smith, Ark., young Funston stirred up intense feel ing by attacking editorially the pub lication's own political party leaders during the absence ot his editor-in chief. Many threats are said to have been made against Funston and the newspaper property, but he remained on guard until his superior return ed and then turned over the plant un harmed. Incidentally, Funston also resigned Along the Santa Fe railroad they still recall now funston as a pas senger tram conductor, tnrew a drunken cowboy off a train and later, when he hurled a rock through a coach window, pursued him several miles on foot while the train waited. On Firing Line. Funston's first experience on the firing line came in Cuba, where he commanded General Gomez's artillery with remarkable results. After en gaging in twenty-two battles and be ing wounded three time, he resigned his command, because fifty guerrillas who had aided the Spaniards were executed against his wishes. Captured hy Spaniards on his way to Havana. he escaped death by swallowing a letter to the president of Cuba, which would have proved his identity. v While a colonel of the famous Twentieth Kansas Volunteer infantry in tne rniiippme wa, funston per formed feats of bravery that brouaht him the. title of brigadier general. His capture of Aguinaldo and his fording of the Rio Grande river at Columpit under fire featured his work. Absolutely Fearless. Funston has been described bv his superiors as absolutely fearless. Ever 'ready to plunge into danger, he cared . I ''."!' wne,1,tr his force equalled that wl unt nay, tne story rocs, wncn it appeared certain thr i Filipinos would destroy three com- panics under Funston's command. General Harrison Gray Otis, inquired J, of the colonel how long he could hold his position. ' I'ntil 1 am mustered out!" Funston ' replied; and he made good by rcpuls- ". tug the Filipinos.
