ISAAC WEED FOUND DEAD,
Wilmington, Del, Millionaire Asphyx-
lated by Escaping Gas.

A dispatch from Wilmington. Del, yes
terday says: Isaac Weed, one Of Della
wares richest men, the father-in-law of -ex-
Governor Sprague Of Rhode Island, was
found dead in his residence early today.
He had evidently been dead since last Sat-
urday. Death was due to accidental as
phyxiation.
Weed was seventy-six years old. Some
time ago his wife, on account Of illness
and to be near specialist, went to visit
their daughter, Mrs. Howard Eaton Of Phil
adelphia, and Mr.. Weed had been living in
the house alone as he would have no
servants.
When the police broke into the house they
found the aged man dead in bed. gas
stove was burning. b. q two jets were not
lighted, and the escaping gas is supposed
to have been sufficient to kill the man with
out causing an explosion.
The last time Mr.. Weed was seen alive
was on Saturday, when the Waterman at
the park opposite the handsome residence
spoke to him.
The coroner, in searching the house to-
day, found Mr.. Weeds will, in which he
left all his property to his wife and Mrs.
Eaton and Mrs. Caldwell.
The discovery was also made that the
signature had been cut from the will!
Therefore the document is void.

that he will manage the Milwaukee club.
