Memphis, Tenn., Aug. 10.-Gen. George W. Gordon, commander-in chief of tho United Confederate Vet erans, and member of Congress, died at his home hero at 4 o'clock Wed nesday afternoon. His Illness dated from bis last political campaign, when he v. as re-elected to the Na tional Ho ase-the last general of the Conf?d?r?e/ to serve in that body. Weakened by the heat of tho past 24 hours, and lils feeble frame wast ed by Hie ravages of a slow Illness, the light of Gen. Gordon's lifo grew dimmer hourly to-day. When, fol lowing a restless night, -ho woko from fitful sleep lu tho early morn ing hours, the watchers at hts side saw that the end was but a question of hours, perhaps minutes. As the end approached, peace seemed to en velope his face, for he smiled as with comforting wolds he bade members of his family and other relatives adieu. George Washington Gordon was born in Giles county, Tennessee, Oc tober 6, 1836. In his early boyhood his parents moved to Texas, and later to Mississippi, but as a youth he returned to Tennessee and enter ed the Western Military Academy, from which he graduated In 1859. His first activity was as a civil engi neer. I At the outbreak of the Civil War, Gen. Gordon enlisted as drill master of the Eleventh Tennessee Infantry, C. S. A. Within a few weeks he was made a captain and was later pro moted to be lieutenant-colonel, and in about a year was commissioned colonel. In 1864 ho was named brigadier-general. He participated with distinction in a number of en gagements, and at one time was taken prisoner. At the close of the war Gen. Gor don studied and practiced law, be coming attorney general of this (Shelby) county. In 1883 he was appointed a member of the Tennes see Railroad Commission, and in 1885 an attache of th? Federal De partment of the Interior, serving four years lu the Indian country. At the end of President Cleveland's first terni he returned to Memphis and resumed the practice of law. He was elected a member of the Sixtieth Congress from tho Tenth Tennessee District and re-elected to tho Sixty first and Sixty-second Congresses. Gen. Gordon was chosen cominan der-in-chief of tho United Confede rate Veterans at tho reunion of 1910, at Mobile, Ala. He was re-elected to that position at the 1911 reunion at Little Rock, Ark., Inst May. Cen. Walker in Command. As the next senior officer of the late Gen. George W. Gordon, Lieut Gen. C. Irvine Walker, of Charleston S. C., assumes command of tho Uni ted Confederate Veterans by orders issued through tho offico of Wm. E Mickle, adjutant general and chief of staff. Gen. Walker paid a loving tribute to the memory of Gen. Gor don and his service as a Confederate soldier. Tho staff of tho late commander in-chief is continued as the staff of Gen. Walker. After Dead Man's Place. Hardly had tho death of Gen. Gor don been announced than candidates seeking lils place in Congress began announcing themselves.

Washington, Aug. 9.-Tho bill granting Statehood to New Mexico and Arizona, legislation that hus been for many yoars tho dream of tho people of tho Territories, was passed by tho Senate last night, 53 to 18, after rejection of the Nelson amendment, which proposed striking out of the Arizona constitution its judiciary recall provision. The bill as passed by the Senate differs only slightly from the House measure, and lt is said may be un satisfactory to President Taft. He has contended all along that he would be glad to sign the Statehood bill if the Nelson amendment pre vailed, but that lt was a grave ques tion whether he would be willing to sign it if Ihe amendment were de feated, as it was, by 4 3 to 26. The indications are that the bill will bc como a law without his signature. Practically all of the debato on the bill centered around the Nelson amendment. Even somo Senators who declared their opposition to the recall of judges voted against the amondment on the ground that If the people of Arizona desired recall as part of their system of government lt was for them and not for Con gress to say whether they should have it. The bill, as passed, compels Ari zona, as a condition precedent to en try into the Union, to submit the re call proposition to the voters for final decision as to whether it shall re main in their constitution. New Mexico must vote on a proposition embodied in the bill which would make the constitution of the State easier of amendment.
