REINACH'S TRAGIC END.
TIE THEORY OF FOUL PLAY GAIN
ING GROUND.


Two Other Men Implicated In the
Scandal Taken Off Mysteriously
About the Same Time as the Baron
The Result of the Autopsy on the
Baron Eagerly Awaited.
PARIS, Dec. 27.-In the greater excite
ment attending the proceedings in the Cham
Der OF Deputies and the revelations com-
promising so many prominent men in the
Panama canal scandal, sight has been lost
TO certain extent of the autopsy on Baron
de Reinach, whose mysterious death has
been attributed to various scauses-apoplexy,
suicide and murder. The government hav-
ing charge of the examination, it is conse-
quently slow and is attended with great
secrecy. The Figaro to-day states that IL
has Information to the effect that DR..
Brouardel, who bad charge of the post NOR
tenn examination, has reported to the gov
ernment that apoplexy was not the cause
OF the barons death, but that he
was poisoned, and that the
poison was taken into his stomach
eight hours before death. The Figaro also
says that the family of Baron do Reinach
are aware of the contents of the report and
have demanded that a judicial inquiry be
held to prove that the baron did not com
NIT suicide. IL has been more than hinted
that Baron Reinach was put out Of the way
by those who feared that his evidence
might implicate them III the scandal.
A SUSPICIOUS CIRCUMSTANCE.
II 1t is true that poison was in his stomach
eight hours before his death there would be
good reason to believe that this charge
against certain men Is truo. for on the
night OF the baron's death he, together with
Nj. Rouvier and NJ. Clemenceau, attempted
to secure cessation of the newspaper at
tacks that were being made upon
him. 1t is nos at all probable
that had Baron Reinach contemplated
suicide he would have gone to the trouble to
attempt to stop attacks that few hours
would have been nothing TO him, and
neither would he have displayed such deep
feeling as to the result of the attacks. Hor-
rible as it may seem there is no denying the
fact that some of those implicated in the
scandal would have felt greatly relieved II
Baron Reinach was dead and beyond giving
evidence that would besmirch their here
tofore good names.
TWO OTHER SUSPICIOUS DEATHS.
The fact that the baron's death was linked
to the sudden and mysterious deaths OF two
other men who were cogniEant of the
bribery of legislators gives added strength
to the demand of the beron's family that
an inquiry be held to pace the RESPONSE
bility for the death where it belongs. The
GGuJOis hos an interview to-day with M.
Andrieux, former project OF the police. He
associated Baron Relnach's death with an
attempt made two years ago TO poison DIR.
Herr. These articles have awakened inter-
est In the matter, and the Official report OF
the result OF the autopsy Is eagerly awaited .
Officials Of the government theological
bureau deny the truth OF the FigGro's story
about the death of Baron de Renach. They
say that the examination OF the organs re-
moved from the baron's body will require
another fortnight at least.
THE DREIBUND ON THE WATCH.
ROME, Dec. 27.-The dreibund nations
Germany. Italy and Austria--rsgard the
situation In France as menacing the peace
of Europe, and are exchanging FREQUENT
notes on the subject They have decided TO
hold themselves in readiness to act promptly
from a military point Of view in the event
of q revolution in France. Their embassies
in Paris have special instructions on the
subject.
TRYING TO LIMIT THE INQUIRY.
LONDON, Dec. 27.-The Paris correspond
ent of the Daily NetOs says: strenuous
efforts are making TO limit the par
liamentary committees inquiry to the con-
nection OF politicians with the Panama
scandal. Many great contractors and en-
gineers fear that probing too deeply will
endanger their fortunes, which might be
seized on behalf of the shareholders.
IN. Wadington and Leon say are men,
toned for the chairmansnip of the Buez
Canal Company, but the popularity OF De
Lesseps is still so great that whoever sue .
ceeds him will be a subject Of general dis
like during Count de Lesseps' life time"
