| Paris, Sept 29.-M Zola, the novelist
died this morning. He was found dead
in his house from asphyXiation. His

at the house in order to attend to Zola
and his wife, said: "When I entered the
bedroom, Zola was partly lying on the
floor amid matter thrown up from his
stomach. No special odor likely to
cause asphyxiation was then distin-
guishable. The two victims, moreover,
did not present exclusive symptoms of
asphyxation. Their faces We're con-
torted and their lips were bloodless,
but not violet color" The commssary
of police in his report to the prefect of
Paris said: ''The heating stove was not
lighted and there was no odor of gas.

little dogs found in the bedroom are
alive"

Tins, is quoted as saying in an inter-
view published this afternoon that the

Democratic Leaders Are Gathering at Saratoga to DIS.
Cuss It.-Frlctlon on Financial Plank.

Saratoga, N. Y, Sept 29.-The ar
rival of former Senator Hill and other
leaders to attend the Democratic con-
vention has given rise to speculation on
tie planks Of the platform. 1t is be-
lieved that it will be conservative. In
regard to trusts it will advocate federal
interference, and call for revision of
the tariff. 1t will denounce acquisition
of the Philippines and condemn the ad-
mnistration Of Roosevelt. The only
certainty in the list of nominations this
morning were John Cumrein for attor-
ney general, and Judge John G. Gray
for court of appeals. One plank that is
testing the capacity of the leaders in
their desire to avoid friction, is the
financial plank and already today there
is q discussion of it.
