HOW REINACH DIED.


The "GauloIs" Gives Details of the Inoi'
dents Attending the Last hours OF the
Baron.
PARIS, December 13.-The GGuIOiS
to-day publishes what purports to be an
account of the last hours of Baron de
Reinach, the banker, who died in No
vember under circumstances that led TO
the belief that he had committed sui
eide because OF his connection with the
Panama Canal scandal. The GGttlOts
claims to have information as TO the
Baron's last hours and the paper con-
firms what has already been stated and
credited to rumor.
The paper says that after the final
interview between Baron de Reinach,
NJ. Rouvler and Nj. Mertz, the Baron
found that all hopes Of escaping the
consequences of his connection with
the Panama affair was gone. He re-
turned to his home at midnight; arriv-
ing there he wrote several letters and
destroyed number of documents. Aft
er making these preparations he swal-
lowed quantity Of poison. The paper
tells its story with great particularly
of detail, even saying that the poison
was taken at exactly a. m. 1t is the
general opinion that Baron de Reinach
was with Arton, one Of the useful"
men of the Panama scheme. 1t is
known that he handled large sum of
money TOR the company and the inves-
tigating committee appointed by the
Chamber of Deputies, is now try
ing to learn to whom this money was
paid and for what purpose it was paid.
Revelations made by M. Clemenceau as
to the visit paid him by Baron de
Reinach and Nj. Rouvier, Minister Of
Finance, on the eve OF Baron de Rein
ach's death have caused CONSERVATION
among the support Of the Government
II is said that another ministerial crisis
is pending and that another political
npheaval may be expected at any time.
NJ. Clemenceau's letter has badly COM
promised M. Rouvier in the Panama
affair and the outcome it would be hard
to predict at present. NJ. Rouvier will
now be summoned to explain his con-
nection with the offer to the investi-
eating committee. M. Herr will also
be summoned, it is extremely doubtful
If he will appear. The political situa-
ton is extremely critical.

NO INSULT INTENDED.

CLEVELAND, o., December 13.-Con-
gresham Tom L. Johnson arrived at
the Weddell yesterday morning and re-
malned until late last evening, when he
started on a flying business trip TO
Louisville and st. Louis. As usual, the
hustling Congressman was In fine health

about political subjects. When asked in
regard TO the alleged insult TO Speaker
Crisp Saturday night at the Reform
Club banquet in New York, Mr.. john
son said: at was not much Of Crisp
crowd, but no insult nor snub was intend
ed the Speaker. He was invited to the
BANQUET but was not invited to speak,
and IL was never announced that he was
to be one Of the speakers. He did not
leave the banquet hall earlier than many
others. In fact, the speeches were
short, and the banquet was concluded
at a comparatively early hour.
There were more calls for Wilson to
speak than Crisp, butneither was called

of age and had been In poor health lot
some time. For about three weeks he
had been confined to his bed and the
immediate cause of his death was Kid

Mai. Fitzhugh was granddaughter OF
Gen. George Washington and was ma
tive of Fauquier county, Va. His faith
err, Henry Fitzhugh, removed to this
city about 1885 and three years later
went TO Jackson county where his vile
owned tract Of land left to her by
