Unseemly Scenes.
Paris. Dec. 12.-The Reinach scandal is
worthy Of the middle ages. The parliament,

crying for the corpse. Only the brush Of
a great artist could do justice to the scenes
presented ut the cemetery when the autopsy
was performed. There was an unseemly
scramble between the doctors and the re-
porters to reach the grave. The doctors
were victorious. They whitened the win
dowS of the room in which the autopsy was
performed so that nothing was visible from
the outside. When the autopsy was per-
formed all newspaper representatives were
excluded from the cemetery, but were al
owed from a barn loft overlooking the
grave. 1t will be impossible for three weeks
to say whether or not Baron Reinach died
OF acOnite poisoning. The suspicion that he
did SO die is due to the fact that a partly
eInptted phial of aconite was found near his
bed. 1t Is alleged that on finding it impos-
s1ble to avert the Panama scandal. the
baron had q stormy scene with a certain
relative whom he had entrusted to prevent
the canal revelations, and it is possible that
on retiring to his room he had in a fit Of
desperation taken the poison. DR.. Bruuar-
del denies the rnmors that he has already
found evidence that Baron Reinach's death
was due to unnatural causes. The viscera

genealogical laboratory at Paris. The Libre
latole. nevertheless. persists that the ex.
animation revealed that death was due to
acOnite poisoning.
