Edward J. Morgan,1 the actor, las-

seen here in "The Gentleman From Indiana," was found dead in his bed ' in the Belleclair Hotel, New York, Saturday, according to a dispatch. Heart disease was pronounced to be the cause of death. Mr. Morgan 's greatest success as an actor was achieved in "The Christian," taking the part of John Storm. i ! His last appearance on the stage was in the role of Mangus in the original, New York production of 'The Eternal City, ' ' which did not prove the . success which its author, Hall Caine, and its producer, Liebler & Co., had anticipated for it. J In the character of John Harkless

in the Hoosier play Mr. Morgan was strong in the scenes requiring display of deep emotion, as where he lay wounded on a s.trong and handsome man, not given to much speaking and rather moody. A cynical curl at the corner of his mouth was a characteristic expression, while a somber eye showed the secret places of his own bosom. He was able to display grcef on the stage with wonderful power and a voice usually calm, low and mellow would rise to a high pitch and carry tears with it. . . The failure of sucess in plays he essayed after "TheChristian" seemed to prey on him;, j i v V
