Died. Patrick Francis Murphy, 72, president of Mark Cross Co. (leather goods), father-in-law of Evelyn John St. Loe Strachey (British journalist, cousin to Author Lytton Strachey) ; famed after-dinner speaker; of pneumonia; in Manhattan. Tall, elegantly dressed, Speaker Murphy was featured at dinners of The Lambs and Manhattan Clubs, at July 4 meetings of U. S. residents in Paris and London. Some Murphyisms:

(Of Mexico) : "That land to the south of us where peace occasionally breaks out."

(Of President Wilson's betrothal to Mrs. Norman Gait shortly after the sinking of the Lusitania): "A man may be too proud to fight and yet find himself in a serious engagement."

"The tariff is the Gulf Stream of politics. It flows through both parties, and each is trying to catch the other in bathing and steal his clothes."

Died. John Haydock Carroll, 73, railroad lawyer, general counsel for the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy and Northern Pacific Railroads, assistant to the president of Baltimore & Ohio, personal legal adviser to the late Railroad Builder James Jerome Hill; after long illness; in Washington. For 32 years his parentage was unknown to him. His mother took him to Cincinnati at the age of five, then disappeared. He lived in a drygoods box with another urchin, sold newspapers, blacked boots. Placed in an orphanage, he escaped in 1865 and by selling "extras" telling of Lincoln's assassination accumulated $4.50, went to Toledo to look for his mother. His impression that she had brought him from Toledo to Cincinnati was verified in 1890, when an aunt read press accounts of his life--he was then general counsel for the Burlington--and told him that his mother had died of sunstroke the day she left him.

Died. Major General Sir David Bruce, 76, onetime (1924) president of the British Association (for the advancement of science); after several months' illness; while funeral services were being held for his wife who had died a few days prior; in London. A member of the Royal Army Medical Corps, he discovered the microorganism in the tsetse fly which causes African sleeping sickness; and the cause of Malta fever.

Died. John D. ("Bonesetter") Reese, 76, famed healer of dislocated bones and muscle injuries; of heart disease; in Youngstown, Ohio. Untutored, unlicensed, Bonesetter Reese was able by deft manipulation quickly to cure cases which would otherwise have required lengthy treatment. His gentle handshake and a quick wrench cured David Lloyd George of strain caused by extensive handshaking on a tour of the U. S. He treated an average of 80 persons a day. Annually for inspection came a troupe of 20 circus acrobats. Among his patients: Will Rogers, Fred Stone, the late Lillian Leitzel, Gene Tunney, Battling Nelson, Baseballers Ty Cobb and Hans Wagner.

Died. Hoke Smith, 76, Secretary of the Interior (1893-96) under President Cleveland, twice Governor of Georgia, twice U. S. Senator; after long illness; in Atlanta. A stout antitrust, anti-railroad, free silver man, he owned the Atlanta Journal from 1887 to 1896. Resigning from the Cabinet in 1896 to support Free Silverite Bryan, he was later elected Governor.

Died. Alfred Alexander ("Uncle Alf") Taylor, 83, onetime (1920--22) Governor of Tennessee, thrice (1889--95) U. S. Representative; of uremic poisoning after long illness; in Johnson City, Tenn., whither he had been taken from his old home "Happy Valley." Well-beloved was Alf Taylor, famed for his campaign for the Governorship in 1886 against his brother Robert Love ("Bob") Taylor. In a jolly, roistering contest Democrat Bob and Republican Alf stumped the State, stole each other's speeches, fiddled, slept in the same bed. It was a "War of the Roses"--Democrats with white ones, Republicans red. Bob won. Eight years after his brother's death, Alf, "The Sage of Happy Valley," stumped once more. A famed foxhunter, he took with him "Old Limber," one of the South's greatest foxhounds. Successful this time, he failed of re-election in 1923.
