      MOSES S. SPRINGER DEAD Well Known Associated Press Operator Victim of Heart Failure

      Moses S. Springer, night operator for the Associated Press in this city, died shortly after midnight. Mr. Springer had been in the employ of the Associated Press, in Sacramento and Los Angeles, since 1894, and was well known to newspapermen and telegraphers on the coast. Before coming West he was in the employ of the Associated Press for many years in Chicago, where he had a wide acquaintance. While heart failure was the direct cause of his death, Mr. Springer had been in poor health tor nearly a year, and it is believed the confinement and severe character of his work materially aided in hastening the end. Deceased was forty-two years old at the time of his death and leaves a wife and three young children.
