Stu JAnms I'inGA1i, Speaker of the
Rouse of Commons, died at his resit.
dence, Blt.or street west, Toronto,
Monday evening, at six o'cloek. Ten
days ago Sir Tames left Ottawa at
the request of his physicians, and on
Ms arrival at Toronto submitted to
an operation, which resulted in the
removal of a stone from the bladder,
Sir James rallied for a few days
after the operation, and his physicians
expressed the belief that if his
strength would -enable him to hold
out for a few days the chance of re-
covery was good. That opinion,
however, was abandoned Monday,
and Sir James sank rapidly during
the afternoon, dying at six o'clock,
surrounded by the members -of his
family ll1r. Edgar had represente=d
West Ontario in the Commons since
1884. When the Liberels returned
to power in 1896, lie became Speaker,
and was knighted a little over a year
ago, in recognition of bis services to
the Dominion, Sir James Edgar
is the sixteenth member elect-
ed to serve in the present Parliament
who has died since June 23, 1896.
The list is as follows, but not quite
