(Dy Associated Press) WASHINGTON. D. C. April 15 Senator William Joel Stone of Missouri, chairman of the senate foreign relations committee and for many years prominent among Democratic leaders, died here yesterday after a stroke of paralysis suffered last Wednesday. Senator Stone was In public life forty-five years and during that long period probably engaged In as many political contests as any man of his time, ranging all the way from controversies over county offices to the broadest , national issues. Opposed War Entry. At the entry of the United States into the war, Senator Stone performed ' the trying feat of antagonizing his own party administration and then realigning himself with it in a generally satisfactory manner. It was In connection with thevbill proposing the arming of American merchant ships that he took sharp issue with Presi- ; dent Wilson. He stood with the dozen senators whose opposition caused, the failure of that measure at the close of the sixty-fourth congress, and brought ..down the denunciation of the president upon "the willful twelve." ' His opposition ta the declaration of - war on Germany also was pronounced, ' and he declined to take charge of the war resolution, as would have been expected of him as chairman of the com- : mittee on foreign relations. He did

not seek, however, to place obstacles

transferred the leadership to Senator Hitchcock. Known as "Gum Shoe Bill." He believed that American participation should be avoided if - possible, but when the die was cast for war, he changed overnight. He took his place with the supporters of war measures and consistently maintained that attitude. He held it incumbent upon him to c'ard with his country regardless of his own views. Although he had served in the house . of representatives and had been governor of his state, Senator Stone first attracted national attention in connection with Mr. Bryan's first campaign for the presidency in 1896. He became the Missouri member of the national Democratic committee and soon took front rank among the Bryan managers, justifying a reputation for frhrewdness and foresightedness he already had gained in Missouri. , In national as well as in state politics he worked quietly, seeking for effects. To this quality he owed the 'tobriquet of "Gum Shoe Bill" and his friends say that he never sought to j avoid the use of that name for himself. i. Long Political Career. - VA Kentuckian by nativity, born May 7,1848, Senator Stone removed to Missouri, where he graduated from the Missouri university and was admitted to the bar in 1869. He immediately began to manifest an interest In political affairs and in 1873 was prosecuting attorney of Vernon county. He went to congress as a representative in the forty-ninth congress and was re-elected to the fifftieth and fiftyfirst , congress, serving from 1885 to .1S9L From 1S93 to 1897 lie was governor

of Missouri. On the dath of George (J. Vest he was elected to the senate in 1903. and was re-elected in 1909 and 1915.

He was married in 1874 and had three children. Burial in Nevada, Mo. At the bedside at the time of his death were his wife and three children Kimbrough Stone, United StateB Circuit Judge of the Eighth Appellate Division, with headquarters at Kansas City; Mrs.. John W. Padkinson, St. Louis, Mo., and Miss Mabel Stone; a niece. Miss Margaret Winston, of St. Louis, and his physician. Dr. William M. Sprigg. of Washington, Funeral services were held at the Washington residence this afternoon at 4 oclock and were conducted by the Chaplin of the Senate, Rev. Forest J. Prettimr.n.
