cRoKER's SON DIES SUDDENLY.
Police investigating Mysterious Death
of YOUNG Man Near Kansas CITY.


Kansas City, Mo-, May 13.-Herbert
V. Croker, a son of Richard Croker,
the New York political leader, was
found dead on a southhound Atchison,
Topeka and Santa F7e railway train
between Kansas City and Newton,
Kans., yesterday. He died during the
night, evidently from the effects of
some drug administered at Kansas
City, where he took the train last
night for Bliss, Okla
The police have traced Herbert v.
Cookers movements in this city
Thursday afternoon. On his return
from the Elm Ridge race course he
went to the Coates house and talked
with the bartender, giving his name
and saying he was on the way to Ok
lahoma. The bartender says Croker
was not intoxicated and drank moth
ing there. In the barroom he met
Charles Woodson, the negro porter.
Woodson says he went out to have a
little fun" visiting a Chinese opium
Croker took drink. Croker had a
$40 bill and explained that he never
carrieS much money, but used a check
book. Woodson says that he and
Croker rode to the railroad station in
a hack; that Croker went into the
chair car because he could not get a
Pullman berth; that he gave Croker
all the money left after paying the
hackman-S17 or SIS. Woodson is
held at the police station, but there is
no charge against him.

Captains Refuse to Load Cargo.

San Francisco, May 13.-The Chron-
icle today says: There is over a mil,
lion dollars worth of munitions of war,
explosive shells, unloaded, lying on
the wharf on the Oakland side of the
bay. The shells are consigned to
the Japanese, but were made in Ger.
many, hence there is a suspicion that
there ultimate destination may be
Vladivostok. The work of loading
these shells began on two steamers,
but was stopped today when the mas.
ters of the vessels ascertained the
character of of their consignment
Many cars, sealed and in bond from
New York, have arrived at Long wharf
within the last week or so. They
were loaded with strong, ironbound
wooden cases, shipped from Hamburg
to Kobe, Japan, marked e. M. E. H

metal" When notified of the charac.

Bound for American Port.

San Francisco, May ia third
class cruiser of the Japanese navy is
reported to be on the way to this port
to undergo repairs and general over
hauling. The name of the vessel is
not known, but from all accounts the
warship lately left the Asiatic coast,
under orders to come to this port to
be repaired, and it is likely she will,
upon arrival, be detained here, as was
the Russian cruiser Lena, until the
end of the war on the Asiatic coast
The Japanese cruiser is daily expected
to arrive. 1t is presumed that she
has been scouting in the Pacific, and
having become short of fuel, was or
dered to put in here, both for advices
and to receive an overhauling in case
repairs should be necessary.
