End Came at 11:32 Sunday Morning After All Efforts of Physicians to Prolong Life Failed Relatives Are Present at Final Hour Messages of Condolence from Thousands Pour In. D. C. Woodrow Wilson, born December 28, 1856, at Staunton, Virginia, of Scotch-Iris- h parentage, and war-tim- e president of the United States, and one of the outstanding figures in American history, passed away at his home on S street, Washington, at 11:32 oclock Sunday morning, a martyr to the cause of the league of nations, with which his name will be linked by posterity. At the bedside were Mrs. Wilson, self-willsoldier.

Mr. Wilson died in the third story back room overlooking the city. He bed, a expired on a huge four-poste- d replica of Abraham Lincolns bedstead, which he had occupied while living in the White House. In the final hours no one was admitted to the sick room outside of the doctors and the nurses, except Mr. Wilsons wife and daughter. Three ministers of the gospel, including the Rev. James II. Taylor of the Central Presbyterian church, Mr. Wilsons own pastor, who called Friday, were not permitted to see the sick man because of his extremely depressed condition. He had been profoundly prostrated since early evening and his death was momentarily expected. Those at the bedside were prepared for the end. Only a miracle can now save him, said Dr. Cary T. Grayson, his intimate friend and personal physician during the last eleven years, earlier in the evening. Former President Wilsons own words were: The machinery hds broken down. Earlier in the night Mrs. Wilson, his constant and devoted companion, had found the hand that she held so hopefully, almost as cold as death. With the passing of Woodrow Wilson goes one of the greatest statesmen the world has ever known, it being often said that he ranked next to Abraham Lincoln. However history may assess this national metamorphosis, it must cord the fact that the years when Mr. Wilson was president marked a radical diversion from the path of the fathers. The first Democrat since Andrew Jackson to serve two consecutive terms as president, Woodrow Wilsons career in office resembled in some respects that of his illustrious Jackson was a rough, predecessor. re- LONDON. The Sunday Express says: Woodrow Wilson is the greatest American since Lincoln. He is a failure like Moses, because he was not allowed to lead Europe into the promised land. But in a hundred years historians will rate his failure as peacemaker higher than the success of any Mr. other figure of the great war. Wilson on his deathbed dwarfs his betrayers on both sides of the Atlantic. He is more than a politician; he is a seer. His blessing of pesce will be the homage of history. He failed as Jesus bitterly president since Abraham Lincoln No other president, certainly, ever took such a part in world affairs, no other president ever exercised such an influence upon thrones and cabinets, upon kings and premiers. He began smashing precedents almost immediately upon his induction into office by delivering his address in person to congress and finished by going to Europe to attend the peace conference. What he accomplished there will remain for posterity to appraise. Suffice it to say here that his two ventures to Paris he went first in December, 1918, and again in March, 1919 were devoted to a task of tremendous magnitude, that of peacemaker to the y yet fearful nations of Europe. Washingtons warning to beware of entangling alliances and the embroilments of foreign rulers was used by the president s political opponents and even certain leaders of his own party to condemn the step which Mr. Wilson insisted had been forced upon him by Americas entry into the world war. He declared that the United States could no longer hold aloof, that it was a world power and, as such, must take its place at the peace table in the endeavor to help solve the world problems that were pressing for solution. He said the United States sought no conquered territory nor inequitable indemnity, but that its sole desire was to restore law and order and help bind up every nations wounds. Upon his first trip to Paris he was everywhere acclaimed as "the friend of humanity and the man who had come to put an end to all wars. No monarch of ancient times was ever accorded greater laudation or listened to with greater admiration. It seemed as if all Europe hung upon the words that fell from his lips. He war-wear- failed. The failure of Jesus in Palestine gave the world Christianity; the failure of Wilson at Versailles will give the world the peace of brother hood.

Before his departure, in an address to Congress, he repeated his famous fourteen points, which, he said, constituted Americas interest in the forthcoming council at Versailles. Presentation of the points, one of which provided for a league of nations covenant, precipitated a bitter controversy in congress which lasted for many months. It engendered such opposition to the presidents plans that upon his return to Europe on the second stage of his mission he was less cordially received. Especially was this the case in certain parts of Italy, where, because of his attitude on Fiume. his name was hissed. French newspapers also excoriated him and he was denounced by a London newspaper as an autocrat. At home he was criticised by political opponents for assenting to the Shantung decision and for an alleged failure to maintain open covenants of peace instead of scret diplomacy. Senator Poindexter, Republican, in a speech accused him of being the worst menace in America because of his friendship for organized labor and his leniency toward radical doetrin-naireOther critics accused himof gross extravagance abroad, and said he had accepted almost priceless gifts. President Wilsons participation in the peace conference was placid, it is said, except fo r occasional ripples that disturbed his usual calm. Tension at times was reported between him and Clemenceau and Lloyd George. Premier Hughes of Australia and Premier Orlando of Italy, the latter at one stage of the negotiations quitting the conference and returning to Rome with his colleagues because of Mr. Wilsons attitude on the Adriatic question.
