WHITAKER WRIGHT dies
ON HEELS OF CONVICTION
Promoter Is Found Guilty In London After Government
Has Held He Could Not Be Prosecuted Wright Dies
Presumably From Poison-One of the Saddest Human
Tragedies London Ever Knew

LONDON, Jan. 26.-At o'clock this
afternoon Whitaker Wright was SEN
fenced to seven years penal servitude
AT o'clock he lay dead on the floor of
small room in the law courts. Wheth-
er he took his own life by poison or
whether death in it's natural course
robbed the law of it's fulfllment, will
not be known until a post-mortem ex-
animation is held. The indications,
however, point to poisoning.
The career of this man, who was
known on three continents for his stu
pendouS financial operations, closed In
startling tragedy. Even in his life,
which, with his rise from poverty to
enormous wealth was full of dramatic
incidents, there was nothing that could
compare with the manner of his DEATH
No such human tragedy has been en-
acted in England for many year.
Until nearly o'clock tonight the
body of the man who formerly had con-
trolled many of the worlds markets
and who had been courted by royalty,
remained upon the floor of the room
where he fell, for, as a convicted felon,
Wright's person had become the prop
erty of the crown.
The home office finally gave permis-
sion for its removal and the body was
given over to the Jurisdiction of the COR
oner. 1t now lies at Westminster NOR
tuary, where almost all the corpses
taken from the Thames are laid out.
The inquest probably will be held on
Thursday.
Widow Is an American.
Mrs. Wright, the dead mans wife. is
an American. She now lies Ill at the
magnificent country home which
Wright had In Surrey. Dispatches from
there say:
"The news of Whitaker Wright's
death has caused much sorrow. He
was well known here for his acts of
generosity and 1t was generally believ-
ed that he would be acquitted and re-
turn home again"
The feeling that Justice Bigham's
conduct of the case was not very judi
cial appears to grow in legal circles of
London, and the sentence imposed upon
Wright would have I'm itself furnished
England with an unexpected sensation.

THE CITY CANDIDATES.
List Is Closed TOday-ThOss
Who Are In.

1t looks much as though the city pFf-
mary campaign for Republican noni-
nations will be a great deal more i'll
teresting than it promised to be up to
last Saturday afternoon. Entries of
candidates closed at noon today with
candidates in every ward for council
men and members of the school board
and in every precinct for members of
the Republican city central committee.
Tonight at 7:30 o'clock the central COM
mittee viii meet in the armory to size
up the situation and decide whether it
win need to assess the officeholders for
campaign funds. 1t probably will not
as the assessments paid in by candi-
dates have been somewhat more plen-
tiful than was anticipated
Although assessments on candidates
are rather steep this year there has
been no kicking. Ten candidates for
the council Clipped in $50 apiece while
eight candidates for the school board at
s. per head, and 81 candidates for the
committee at 50 cents, have brought the
total up to 1855. So The estimate of the
committee on campaign expenses fig
ured them at about $500 Unless there
is some unexpected opposition tonight
the recommendation of the executive
committee that the hour of opening the
polls be changed from IL a. m. until
D M will be adopted. This will cut
out about $50 expense for meals.
The fight in the Sixth ward between
Colonel J. w F. Hughes and w A.
