(Hy Tbe ZnUtod PwQ
New York Aug. 15. Elbert IL
Gary chairman of the board of
thu Butted Stales Stool Corporation
died at his borne at 4 o'clock thla
morning. . . .
Reporta of Mr. Cary's death flret
began to circulate in tho Wall Street
district in the middle of the morn-
ing. - Confirmation was not imme-
diately available - at the offices of
the United States Steel Corporation
before reporters went to the Gary
home at 1130 Fifth Avenue an em-
ploye of the household msde ' the
bare announcement that Mr. Gary
had died at 4 o'clock. He said
all further details would be given
out at the steel corporation later.
It was- ataled that the cause of
Mr. Gary's death was chronic myo-
carditis. He had been In ill health
for about a month. At the offices of ;
the steel corporation the exact time '
of death was placed at 3:40 o'clock
this morning. Beyond that bare an-
nouncement It was said no details
would be available until sometime
during the afternoon.
On the twenty-fifth of July Mr.
Gary who at that time had been
ill for about a week was reported
"on the mend and It waa expected
at that time he would return to hla
office within a few days.
. One of Mr. : Gary's - last public
acts was on the 16th of June whan
by passing his hand over an elec-
trically sensitised mechanism lie set .
In- operation the .gigantic ' electrified '
homestead sleol plant' "Marv Pitta-
burgh. . -j .
To perform this . operation he ait
in his office at 71 'Broadway ' and
the feat involved building up a .
minute quantity of - energy released
from hla hand Into great enough
electrical strength to control the .
operation ot the steel plant. . -
The home where Mr. - Gary died
is up-town on Fifth Avenue . from
the famous Gary mansion at 956
Firth Avenue said to be. one of the
rinest residences In New York which
Is now In process ot demolition. .
The Gary mansion contained a mar-
ble staircase valued at . 3150000.
Because the contractor tearing
down the mansion astlmated that
It -would cost the full - value of the
great staircase to . remove IL how-
ever It . was offered for sale . for
51 to any one who would taka It
away.
Ever since Mr. Gary - passed his
80th birthday anniversary ' rumors
of hla Impending resignation as
chairman ot the .steel . corporation
have been recurrent. Time after
time rumors which appeared to 'be'
based on authentic Information have
been circulated only to be proven
baseless.
The general belief that Mr. Gary
was considering resigning became
more pronounced after tbe last meet- -tng
of the steel corporation's stock-
holders on April 19 when remarks
ho made at that time wore construed
as valedictory.
On February 25 last Mr Gary cele-
bra tod the 251 h anniversary of his
Incumbency aa an executive officer
ef tlie corporation.
The news of Mr. Gary's death waa
telephoned to the offices of the
steel corporation by F. A Sites Mr. .
Gary's secretory rroin the Gary
home. Mr. S'tes said that a state-
ment would bo issued at 2:30 o'clock
this afternoon.
A month ago when Mr. Gary first
becsiue 111 It was understood that be
was suffering from ptomaine polsou-
Ing. Two weeks ago when It wse
bolieved he was rapidly regaining
hie hculth he received In hie nick
room executive who had recant ly
been promoted. Shortly after tbto
he suffered a relapse and It was con-
sidered possible that the ceremony
of greeting his subordinates had
proved too great a strain. After the -relupso
no one waa permitted to
visit him bnt hla wife and attendants.
Speculate on Successor.
