HERR KRUPP is DEAD.
Great Gunmaker and Richest Man In
Germany Dies Suddenly Of
ApOplexy.

Berlin. Nov. 24.--Herr Krupp, the
great gunmaker and the wealthiest
man in Germany, died suddenly from
apoplexy Saturday afternoon at his
villa on the hill near Essen Herr
Krupp had been i'll for several days,
and report of his condition was tele-
graphed daily to his wife, who had
been several months in Jena under
medical treatment. According to the
medical reports, his physicians sue
coded in restoring Herr Krupp to con-
sciousness, but their patient soon re-
lapsed into insensibility. He died at
three o'clock. In the meantime the
directors of the Krupp works and
Herr Krupp's solicitors had been sum-
moned. They held consultation
after his death and caused bulletin
his demise to be posted
at the works at six o'clock.
Moderate estimates of the fortune
of the deceased place it at 1925, 100000,
and his annual income during his re-
cent years of prosperity at $4,000
900.
The first assumption that Herr
Krupp committed suicide is yielding
to precise and abundant testimony to
the contrary. Prof. Binswanger, q
physician of the highest reputation,

FILIPINO POLITICS.
"Denocratic Party" Organized in thu
Islands-Main Planks in Its
Platform.

Washington, Nov. 21.-The ''demo-
cratic party" is the latest addition to
the political organizations in the Phil
ippines, according to advices received
at the war department. Prominent
Filipinos have identified themselves
with the party, among them Gen.
Lukban, who organized and led the in
surgents on the island of Samar and
who was in command of the insurgents
at the time of the Balangiga massa-
ere. The new party will demand mod
ifcation of the present administration
in the Philippines SO as to afford a
greater degree of self-government;
the immediate establishment of two
legislative chambers, both chambers
to be elected in accordance with suf-
frage laws as they obtain in this
country, and that the acts passed by
the two chambers shall become laws
without further action.

SECURED A BIG SUM.
Train Hold-Up Thought to Have
Escaped with 100000.

Davenport, Ia, Nov. 24.-The five
masked robbers who held up west
bound express train No. II on the Rock
Island, inside the city limits, at mid
night Saturday, cut off the express
car, wrecked it with dynamite and loot
ed the safes, have SO far made good
their escape. Scores of policemen and
a pack of bloodhounds are securing
the country.
The amount secured by the robbers
was large, but the United States Ex-
press company refuses to give out fig
ures. One official of the company, who
knows the amount usually carried on
the train, declares the loss will be over
$4,000 in money and jewelry It is
known that large amount of money
and jewelry consigned to Omaha and
Denver was put in the safe in this city.
Davenport express company officials
estimate the loss at $4,000.
