A BARON GLAD TO DIE.

He Squandcred His Fortune and Became
Mental in a Strange Lond.
The Baron Oscar Won Stuepna gel was one
of the gayesl men in Berlin society five
years ago. He was tho son of prominent
nobleman and had blue blOOded ancestors
in plenty. The young Baron was over six
fee! tail, straight as an arrow, and though
Of powerful build his hands and feet
were as small as wOman's He
had Handsome face and a military bearing.
He had served in the Guard Cuirassier the
pride of the empire and one of the finest
military bodies in the world.
After completing his term Of service in
the guard the Baron charged into the center
of the fastest of tie fast set. He electrified
Berlin and dIited to Paris. Then he went
back to Berlin. He spent money lavlshly.
His name became one Of the best known IN
the world of gayety and frivolity. After
eXhauStng the pleasures of Berlin and Paris
lie went 10 Monte Carlo. When he turned
away his bank account was exhausted.
His next step was TO borrow $50 OOC on
his hno estate near Berlin. That dlsap-
peaTed at Monte Carlo too.
Although there was a clause in his fathers
Will providing that the property could not
be sold TO stranger unless every member
OF the family refused 10 purchase il, the
Baron disposed of his ancestral home for
100000 without consulting anybody. A
great scandal was created, but the Baron
only plunged deeper into dissipation.
Last week tall young man, poorly
dressed, bat with an air OF refinement APP
piled for treatment at the Willard Parker
Hospital He was suffering from diphthe-
ria. Soon after his admission be became
dangerously Ill, and the doctors told him to
be prepared Tor the worst.
$50 much the better" said the sick man
bitterly, Il want TO die"
He breathed his last on Friday, Then It
was found that lie was Baron Won Stuep-
naEel
Adelbert But,enbeck of 1904 Third avenue
said that the Baron had been in New cork
three CT four years, and had worked as
coachmRn and dng-master. lie might
have returned to his relatives in Germany,
but was too pToud. They sent him money
az regular intervals, but not enough to live
on. His last employment WAS as coachman
for Colonel Brown Of Seyenty-secOnd street
and Amsterdam avenue.

CANADIAN RECIPROCITY.

Why a Treaty Has Not Been Arranged
With the Dominion A CANADIAN e..
PLANTATION.
OTTAWA, ONT, March 24-One Of the
most important features of the minis
ter of finances budget speech yester-
day was his explanation of the failure
Of the recent visit of himself and his
colleagues to Washington to arrange a
treaty of reciprocity with Secretary
Blaine. The delegation had been most
cordially met by Mr.. Blaine and Gen.
Foster, who said the Canadians must
deal with the United States and with
them alone, otherwise there would DO
no reciprocal equivalent for any con-
cessions made to Canada by the United
States The Canadian delegates then
pointed out to Secretary Blaine that
while in placing imports from the
United States on the free list there
would be a loss of some IS, 900. 600 per
annum to the revenue, there would be
a further loss in import duties taxed
upon goods purchased from other
countries, and which would be import
ed from the United States If the GUS
toms barriers were removed Here
Secretary Blaine asked if it would not
be possible for Canada to make up this
loss of revenue through other means OF
taxation, to which the Canadian repre-
sentatives replied that the only means
by which the deficit could be made good
was by direct taxation, which
the Canadian people would re-
volt against Concluding his speech,
Minister Foster said with reference to
the Washington negotiations. that so
long as a high protective policy is main
tanned in the United States Canada can
hope for no fair treaty of reciprocity
on any other line than will include
manufactured goods, and a consequent
discrimination against Great Britain
and the rest Of the world, and if the
result of the recent conference at
Washington had not resulted as had
been hoped. Canada now knows the
only basis upon which a commercial
treaty of reciprocity with the United
States can be reached.
