ST. LOUIS MYSTERY
Prominene Citizen Shot in His Homo
Family Says Burglars, Police Init
mate Man Was Self Slain.

st. Louis. Dec. 8-Francis D. Hirsch-
berg. prominent in the Roman Catho.
lie church and personal friend OF
Archbishop Giennon, also we'll known
in club and business circles and as a
directar OF the Louisiana purchase ex-
position, was shot and killed at his
home early today, Whether his death
was the result of murder or suicide
has not been determined. Members of
the family aver he was victim of a
burglar while the police investigators
declare there is no evidence Of the
presence of intruders,
"A trail of blood stains on the snow
white stairway leading from the>
ception hall on the first floor, indicate
that Hirschberg was shot at the foot
OF these stairs, then turned and walked
back to his bedroom on the second
floor. From there, he crossed the hall
way and passed thru his wife's room.
Mrs. Hirschberg was awake just in
time to see him sink to the floor un-
conscious, according to the statements
made to the police. Mrs. Hirschberg
had her husband carried to his bed
room, where he died. He made no
statement as to how he was shot. So far
as the police could learn, no member
of the household was on the lower
floor. It is explained that deafness
Of long standing, prevented Mrs.
Hirschberg from hearing the report OF
the revolver.

Panama canal property, and in con-
formity with this program, Represen-
tative Rainey of Illinois, introduced a
resolution directing the speaker to APP
point committee of five to ascertain
how much of the s4O,00O,000 which
appears of record to have been paid
to the French company was really paid
to that company" 1t is said that the
national democratic committee re-
quested Mr.. Rainey to present the reso-
luton.
The resolution provides that the com
mittee shall ascertain if any portion
of the s4O,0o0,000 was directly or in
directly paid to American citizens, or
to any American syndicate, and if anJ
member or senator profited by the
transaction.
During the recent compaign it was
charged in newspaper articles that the
presidents brother-in-laW, Douglass
Robinson of New York, and Charles p
Taft, brother of the president-elect, hac
profited by the transaction. 1t was
this charge and newspaper comment
thereon which provoked the letter from
President Roosevelt to William Dudley
Foulke of Indiana, denying the state
ments and saying that all the papers
in the matter were open to the public
