His death was unexpected, it not beiug supposed outside bis house that bc was in uuy immediate danger. As .soon as tito news ol Mr. Arthur's i death wa< made public many Mags on public ami private buildings were placed at halt mast. Mr. Arthur leal lived ul No. 1251 Lexington avenue tur twenty years or more. A stroke ot ci reina! apoplexy suddenly, but not wholly un expected by the attending physician, terminated his life. The stroke came in his sleep, between Tucsduy night and Wednesday morning, and lie did not rally thereafter, i lis death wits painless and slow, like the going out ol' a hmm d down camile, and loi hoars before tile end came be was unconscious to his sur roundings. Hi-son and daughter. hlS sister, his former iaw partner. Sherman Wi Kite va ls, and Iiis closest friend, Sur rogate Hollins, were at Iiis lu dsah'. All reports to tlie contrary, Mr. Ar thur's health has md improved during his stay at New Loudon six Weeks ugo, and at his ri t arn on October 1st he was no better than when lie left the city. As tin time passed no permanent improve* nu nt cann . abd '.In- physicians feared some such sudden stroke as the oue to which hi succumbed. In hi- eul'eebled condition even a light stroke ol'apoplexy would prove fatal to the once lohnst patient. With tia beginning ot the present Week a marked change tor tim lutter set in. ?hi Tuesday tia- ex-Presi d? ut felt hi tter and stronger than at any timo since be was takeu sick, and com mented hopefully upon the fact. lt wa- nfter midnight when Ids at tendant h it him alone in his bedroom, and nothing was heard ol him during tho carly morning hours, lb was ma disturbed until Ins attendant . uteri d his room at K o'clock yesterday morning. Ile lound Mr. Arthur lying on his side, breathing heavily ami could not rouse liim. Thc family uiiswi red his sum* liions, luit tailed to elicit uuy sign ot consciousness or recognition from tin ex*President, ?n their alarm they sum moned bis physician, Dr. (?eorgo A. Peters, who has lu en in attendance upon Air. Arthur throughout Iiis illness, and win? responded promptly and ?it onci saw- that lie was sullering froma st roko ol' corobral apoplexy. A small blood vessel in Hie billin lani burst and paralysis ol the right .side had ensued. I'rom the moment this discovery was made all iinue wa.- known to be of no avail, but no efforts wore spared tu bring the pa tient back to consciousness. 'I'liev were idl alike a failure. Mr, Arthur lay mo tionless and specchh ss all day. Ile knew whi t was going on about liim. fur he ftuticozcd bis doctor's lanni ?iud jail out Lus tongue partly when asked to do so, but he never spoke or gave any other sign of consciousness. Lost night nt (! o'clock an enfeebled ?misc. more diilicult respiration and o thor signs of physical failure indicated to tho watchful eves of his physicians that thc end was drawing near. 'I'la change for the worse came on rapidly, and ins sister ami children gathered ut his bedside. Dr. Will. A. Valentine, Dr. Potoi's's partial, and Surrogate Hollins stayed with then; during thc night. Mr. Knovals went home at mid night. Air. Arthur's strength ebbed out slowly and with it Iiis life, lt was ?1 o'clock when the end came. Ile had Leen entirely senseless for hours, ami ililli without a struggle.
