WRIGHT, KING OF FLIERS, IS DEM Siege of Typhoid Ends Fatally i for Famous Aviator at His ; Home in Dayton, Ohio. DAYTON, OHIO. May 30. Wilbur Wright, first aviator of the world, died here at 3:30 a. m. today. The man who, with his brother Orville, Invented and perfected the first successfully heavier than air flying machine suc cumbed to typhoid fever, and after a battle for life that lasted three weeks. The end came after one of the most remarkable struggles against the dis ease that physicians have ever known For more than 36 hours Wright's tem perature had stood between 104 and 105 degrees, while his respiration was between 40 and 50. His purse averaged 140. Stimulants were resorted to and for the la,sf three days had been used freely. At last midnight Wright began to sink rapidly. His pulse grew' weak er and he failed to respond to stimu lants. Wonderful Vitality Shown. At Wright's bedside were his father, Bishop Milton Wright; his sister. Hath, erine; his brother and co-worker and inventor, Orville Wright, and Lorin and Reuchlin Wright, younger brothers. Dr. Conklin was in attendance when the end came. Wilbur Wright's illness began a little more than three weeks ago. He grew rapidly worse and his - condition be came critical within a week after he had been attacked by the malady. Orville Wright, brother of the in ventor, who was in Washington taking up with government officials some mat ters n connection with the govern ment s use of the Wright machines, was sum loned home. Shortly after he ar rived cablegrams wore sent to foreign countries which the inventor had ex pected soon to visit, saying that it would be impossible to make the trip for some days. Then for the first time it was known that Wilbur's condition was such as to give grave alarm. Wright rallied after the first sinking spell and his wonderful vitality made the physicians hope that he might re cover. He aroused himself sufficiently to say that he would get well, and then he grimly battled against death, fight ing desperately against disease. Made Game Fight For Life. A second sinking spell occurred, and three days ago Dr. Conklin announced that there was no hope. Wright sank into a state of coma. He rallied slight ly, and though his fever was very high, there seemed a slight chance that he might recover. The fight he made caused the physician yesterday to issue a hopeful statement. "I do not know what the outcome wilt bo," he satd "Wright has- remarkable vitality and he is putting up a gallant fight. He may live. 1 can not tell." Wright’s condition again took a turn for the worse about midnight. He sank into unconsciousness and during the last few hours was kept alive only through stimulants. Early today it was seen that the end was not far off and the entire family was summoned. All were in the room when the aviator passed away. The aviator's condition sank lower and lower as the morning hours sped by. Shortly after I o'clock it was thought he was dying. His heart ac tion became very low The stimulants were again used and his heart respond ed slightly. The final -inking spell be gan about 3 o'clock. He died peace fully. Brother Is Overcome. Orville Wright, the brother who has shared in Wright's work and his achievements, was overcome. Their sister, Katherine, who helped the broth ers when they were struggling with their invention and who shared their triumphal European trip and their home-coming after the success of then machines had been demonstrated, though overcome herself, strove to comfort Orville. Wright's mother is dead anil his sis ter Katherine has taken the mother's place in the home since that time. No arrangements have been made sot the funeral. A complication of kidney trouble is supposed to have been the cause for the first sinking spell after it was believ. the fever had been broken. Chicago Meet Opens, Flags Half Mast i HU 'AGO. May 30.
