BRU TALLY CLUBBED
EDITOR JACOB II. THoHPSoN
MURDERED.

NEW YORK, September "a mystery OF
unusual proportions was today developed
In the circumstances surrounding the death
of Jacob H. Thompson. for the last forty
years an editor on the New York Times,
by positive evidence that he was murdered
on the night OF September by a brutal
clubbing in a prominent hotel situated in
one OF the busiest residence and business
sections of New York city. This fact was
disclosed today by the coroner's autopsy.
This examination showed that lar. Thomp-
son had been struck over the head at least
dozen times with a blunt instrument, and
had been strangulated as well.
No one has been found who admits having
the slightest knowledge of what transpired
In the editors room in st. James Hotel, at
100 West 45th street, from the time he en-
tered it early Thursday evening until he
was found about O'Clock yesterday morn
ing by a chambermaid, who told the coro-
ner that she saw him half sitting and max
ing convulsive movements with his hands.
He was then fully dressed and was wearing
riding boots. An unfinished letter was lying
on his desk, If the writer had just laid
down his pen.
The mystery is further complicated by the
fact that at first reports were sent both
to Mr.. Thompson's brother and to the hos
p!tal which was telephoned to for aid that
he was only suffering from heart failure.
The examination of Mr.. Thompson's
wounds in the autopsy today completely
upset the claims of the police and the cor
oner that the editor died of apoplexy. the
coroner himself stating that his first judg-
ment OF the causes for the mysterious
death was wrong, and that Mr.. Thompson
was probably a victim of foul play.
The autopsy revealed not only one, but
three distinct fractures o. the skull.

much suffering by those insufficiently clad
Succor Is pouring in from all quarters. but

OPINION OF PRESIDENT.
A Statesman of Large CALDER and a
Man of High Ideals, Says M. Witte.

cabegram from Berlin says: In pri-
vate letter received here NJ. White ex-
presses the following opinion of President
Roosevelt:
From a moral point of view the Presi-
dent of the United States is statesman
of large caliber. Born in time when poll
ticians are more children of their century
than Of their history. he owes his high po-
sition. which he fills more worthily every
day. exclusively to his personal qualities,
as revealed In actions requiring decision.
tact and clear vision The world recog-
nizes this. When one speaks with Presi-
dent Roosevelt he charms through the ele-
walton of his thoughts and through that
transparent philosophy which permeates his
judgment. He has an ideal and strives for
higher aims than a commonplace existence
presents. In the stubborn struggles of our
day men like Mr. Roosevelt have no leisure
for they are soldiers who cannot be relieved
from the danger line.
