FULLER OF SUPREME COURT PASSES AWAY Melville W. Fuller, Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court, died suddenly at 6 o'clock Monday morning at his home at Sorrento, near Bar Harbor, in the room in which his wife died six years ago. Not only did he round out his days in the same room where his wife had passed away, but it was in the state of his nativity that his long life ended. Chief Justice Fuller was 77 years old. Heart trouble and Bright's disease caused his death.

MELVILLE W. FULLER. Chief Justice U. S. Supreme Court.

With the Justice when he died were his daughter, Mrs. Nathaniel Francis of Washington, his granddaughter, Miss Aubrey Francis, and the Reverend James E. Freeman of Minneapolis, a neighbor and friend of the family. Justice Fuller had not shown any symptoms of illness. Sunday he attended the Church of the Redeemer (Episcopal), where the Rev.

Mr. Freeman conducted the services. He retired Sunday evening about the usual time, and to all appearances in his customary health. Melville Weston Fuller was born in Augusta, February 11, 1833. His father, Frederick Augustus Fuller, was a lawyer of distinction, who became Chief Justice of the Court of Appeals of Maine, and his maternal grandfather was Chief Justice of the United States.

He was graduated from Bowden College in 1853, taking the of Master of Arts, and, after attending a course of lectures at the Harvard Law School, he returned to Augusta, was admitted to the bar and began the practice of law in 1855. Then he became also the associate editor of The Democratic Augusta Age; was elected president of the Common Council and served as City Solicitor. Within two years, however, he put the Far East and home ties behind him and, emigrating to young Chicago, there entered upon the practice of law in a more stirring environment, continuing in the pursuit of his profession until his nomination and confirmation as Chief Justice, in 1888. During the thirty years of his career in Chicago he was often honored by the Democratic party by selection and election to honorable place in party councils. He was a member of the State Constitutional Convention of Illinois in 1862, of the Illinois Legislature in 1863-65, and was delegate to the Democratic National Conventions of 1864.

1872, 1876 and 1880. His appointment as Chief Justice was made by President Cleveland April 30, 1888; was confirmed July 20 of the same year, and on October 8, 1888, he took the oath of office. Chief Justice Fuller was twice. married- -to Calista 0. Reynolds in 1858 and on May 30, 1866, to Mary E.

Coalbaugh, daughter of William F. Coalbaugh of Chicago. The funeral services will be held at the Church of the Redeemer, Wednesday afternoon. Interment will be at Chicago probably on Friday. W.
