died In Bellevue Hospital on Thursday

was taken III while walking with his wife

TO be an epilep'ic fit In falling he struck
the right side of his head heavily.
DR.. Williams said last night that Yunges
death was due to natural causes. He had
a simple fracture OF the skull above and
little behind the right car. At the base of
the fracture very large blood-clot was
found. In the poas rdrohi four distinct
hemoThages had taken place. 1t will
take a microscopic examination to show
whether or not the hemorrhages preceded
the fall.
Reports published that Yunge had been
employed by the District Attorney to collect
evidence against Wardman Bissert and, ,
therefore, had probably been murdered,

WHY NOT A BROOKLYN MAYOR

For tho remainder Of the month dulness

tenants, are at Saratog ready for any po-
litical confabs which may turn up with

there. The Brooklyn leaders are still de-
termined to make a strong bid for the
privilege Of naming the candidate for
Mayor, although there are very few OF
them who have any expectation that Tam
many will concede 1t TO them.
Word comes from Mr. Mc1Aughlins
camp that in his opinion tho Brooklyn or
ganiyation could name dozen men, any
one Of whom could be easily elected, and
that the wisest policy this year would be
for Tammany to leave the selection OF the
candidate to IL. Among the men most dis
cussed are Edward NJ Shepard and Joseph
