New York, March 14.--George "West­ inghouse, aged sixty-seven, famous in­ ventor and millionaire manufacturer of railway devices, is dead. He died suddenly on Thursday. He had been seriously ill for several weeks of heart trouble, but his friends and relatives had kept secret his indisposition. George Westinghouse was one of the moat noted inventors and manufactur­ ers in the world. He was born at Central Bridge, N. Y., October 6, 1846. As ^ youth he spent much of his time in his father's machine shop and at the age of fifteen years made his first in­ vention, a rotary engine. His education was obtained in thS grammar and high schools. As a young mem. he was interested in matters military and he became & member of the Twelfth regiment of the New York National Guard. He was In the Sixteenth New York cavalry during the Civil war, serving from June, 1863, until November, 1864, when he became assistant engineer in the navy, performing the duties of his grade from December, 1864, to August, 18fi5 After the war he attended Union college to the sophomore year. To relate the hiBtory of the man quickly, he Invented a device for re­ placing railroad cars on the track in 1865. Three yearB later he invented the Westinghouse air brake. He also made other inventions in railway sig: . . . j nals, steam and gas engines, steam turbines and electrical machinery. He was the pioneer, in the face of the most intense opposition, in introduc- i ing alternating current machinery In America. This has made possible the [ great development of water power for I long distances because of this meanB I of electrical transmission. He built the great generators at Niagara Falls and those for the elevated railway and the rapid transit system of New York. He has established large works in the United States, England, France a^d Germany for the manufacture of air brakes, steam and eleptrical machin­ ery. He was the president of numer­ ous corporations, employing approxi­ mately fifty thousand people and rep­ resenting a capitalization- of $120,000,- 000. Paris. March 18.--Gaston Calmette, the brilliant editor of Figaro, paid the penalty of the unwritten French law which forbids that the honor of a woman shall be dragged into a public controyersy. He was assassinated, his body riddled with bullets, by Mme. Henriette Caillaux, wife of Joseph Cail­ laux, minister of finance, who had been the object of bitter personal attacks published in Figaro and signed by Cal­ mette. He died on Monday. The Caillaux-Calmette feud had held the attention of Paris for a long time. The Figaro editor repeatedly accused the fmanee minister of political corrup­ tion. The feud reached its climax last treek when the Figaro published the contents of love letters that Caillaux wrote to his preser t: wife in 1901--b©-. fore they were married and when she was the wife of L«o Claretie, the lit­ erary critic of the Figaro. It was not to avenge the attack upon her husband, but to vindicate her own honor that Madame Caillaux started out to shoot Calmette. With a pistol concealed in her muff she went to the Figaro office at the busiest time of the evening and sent up her card to Cal- mette's room. Paul Bourget,. the famous novelist and academician, was with the editor when her card was received. Cal­ mette was astounded when ha learned the identity of his caller. "Do not see her," M. Bourget ad­ vised. "She is a woman," 'Calmette replied. "I must receive her." " Bourgett thereupon wished his friend good-night and withdrew. Immediately upon entering the room Mme. Caillaux raised her arm and I fired five shots at a distance of six i paces. Calmette fell without a word I at the first shot and lay apparenely I lifeless. After the fifth shot the at- | tendants seieed the woman, who re< tained perfect self possession. "Don't touch me. I'm a woman," she said. Several members of the Figaro staff rushed into the room. As they raised the wounded man he murmured: "I only did my duty. I have no per­ sonal malice." It was found that one bullet had lodged in the groin, one had passed through the ribs close to the heart. He died a few moments later. ELEANOR WILSbN TO WEO President and Mrs. Wilson Confirm .Report That Dsughter Will Marry Secretary McAdoo. ENVOY PAGE IS ABSOLVED President Holds That Ambassador's Address in London on Monroe Doctrine Was Harmless. Washington. March 18.--President Wilson on Monday exonerated Ambas­ sador Walter Hines Page, the United States envoy to the court of St. James, and held that Page's address on the Monroe dictrlne was without a single phrase at which this govern­ ment mi^ht take offense. The presi­ dent believes that the speech was misquoted and misrepresented. He told his callers that the addrees as It has now been reported to him was an absolutely accurate statement of fact, and without a line to which tthis government could take exception. As an instance, he said, of how Mr. Page has been misquoted, the presi­ dent cited the fact that one passage of the address was cabled as follows: "We will repeal the exemption clause of the Panama act, not merely to please England." What Mr. Page did say, the presi­ dent declared, was.: "We will repeal the clause, not to please England, but," etc. . . Washington, March 16.--Just at so- ' ciety was despairing of an official an­ nouncement from the White. House about the reported engagement of Miss Eleanor Wilson to William G. McAdoo, secretary of the treasury, a statement was given out on Friday by the presi­ dent's secretary, Mr. Tumulty, to effect: "The president and Mrs. Wilson an­ nounce the engagement of their young­ est daughter, Eueanor Randolph, to William GibbB McAdoo." It is understood that the weeding day has not been fixed. Rumor has it, however, that It will occur at a very early date, either In Easter week or when the June roses bloom about the White House grounds. Trio Are Hurled to Death.
