DUKE De CHAULNES-
DIED A VICTIM To
MORPHINE HABIT
AT Bedside of Husband of Beau
tiful Theodore ShOnts Phials
of Drugs We're Found.
FOUGHT FATAL CRAVING
FOR LOVE OF HIS WIFE
Doctors Certificate Gives En-
b0lism of Heart as Cause
of Death.

PARIS, April 25.--The Duke de ChauI-
mes, the gallant husband-Iover of the
beautiful Theodore ShOnts, IL is now de-
cIarcd, had been fighting, with his
bride, Il habit that finally dragged him
to his untimcIy denth--the use of NOR
phine.
Whether, in the great love he bore his
American bride, he abstained from the
use of the drug which had grown to be
a necessity tc him, until death resulted
from a weakening Of the heart, or
whether an accidental overdose of it
caused him to die in his wife's arms is
not known. The fact is established,
however, according to a generally cred
ited story, that he had used the drug.
and that since his marriage with Miss
Shonts he had steadily fought the habit.
When the doctor. entered the dukes
apartment in the Langham Hotel on
Thursday night, in answer to hurried
SUMMONS, pbials containing morphine,
cocaine and ether were found ON a
table. q
When the possibility of suicide was
suggested TO the police commissary it
was secuted, the official having infor-
nation that the duke had been for a
number of years a victim of the habit
that he sought in vain to throw Off
The physicians gave officially as
cause of death embolsn of the heart,
but the ruInor that it was an overdose
of morphia has gained credence. and
the Paris papers are all publishing this
fact.
The body was conveyed at daylight
this morning from the hotel to the
Church of st. Phillip, where it will re-
main pending completion of the ar
rangements for the funeral.
Papers Besmirch Dukes Character.
The newspapers of Paris give much
prominence to the dukes tragic death.
Some of them take no pains to spare
his memory, raling up not only the es-
capades of his youth, but recalling the
sad story of his mother. the beautiful
Princess Cialitzin, who died miserably
in garret. They describe how the
duke recklessIy squandered the fortune
left him by his grandmother, and make
no attempt to gloss over some of the
methods in which it is alleged he spent
his patrimony.
The Matin concludes its article: His
American wife is now a widow, but she
is still the Duchess de Chaulnes. Let us
hope that this title, which has weighed
heavily on certain women of the
younger branches of the Luynes, may
be lightened for her"

became public today, when Whitmore's
counsel requested Judge John I. Blair
to set a date for the trial prior to May
25. the time fixed by the las postpone
ment.
County Physicians Amdavit.
Mr.. Simpson backed up his applica-
tion for an early trial with an affidavit
of DR.. Charles p. Converse, county
physician of Hudson County, in which
the physician declared that Whitmore
was in a state bordering upon nervous
collapse. and that his death in Jail was
probable unless speedy action was
taken in his case.
when mis- case was postponed from
April % to May 25 l thought Wfitmore
would die from the shock declared Mr..
Simpson today to an EVENING STAR
reporter. "He had fretted and fused
about the two previous postponements
until he had worried himself into state
of extreme nervousness. When l told
him Of the third pestponement he be-
came a madman, and it was several
hours before felt that | could safely
leave him.in Eis cell.
"I then asked the county physician
to examine him, and the result of the
examination is the affidavit upon which
l base my application for an early
trial"
Must wait, Prosecutor Says.
Prosecutor Garven will oppose Mr..
Simpsons effort to obtain an earlier
trial of the indicted man. Prosecutor
Garven said:
ut is manifestly unfair to place
Whitmore's case ahead of others who
have been here long before him. There
are other men awaiting trial for muir
der who have been disappointed, per-
haps as keenly as he has. and see
no reason to give him preference over
these men.
I'VE are trying these cases as speedily
as we can. but it seems to me that
Whitmore should await his turn. Be-
cause he is impatient and has worried
himself i'll could not be taken as an
excuse, | don't believe, for placing him
ahead of others. 1 shall therefore OPP
pose Mr.. Simpsons request"
Warden Thomas Connolly, of the
Hudson County Jail. by telephone to-
day told THE EVENING STAR that
Whitmore had gained twenty pounds
since his incarceration, and was the
HedlllleSl man III lHe INSTITUTION.
This talk about his being i'll is more
or less fanciful," said the warden. "Ap-
pearances go 10 show that he is in the
prime of health, l would not pronounce
him a sick man. He eats heartily and
seems to be in good spirits. OF course,
he was disappointed at the delays in
trying his case, but that was to be ex4
pected.'
Crime Committed Last December.
Theodore Smith Whitmore was named
by the coroner's jury as the
slayer of his wife on January 10
last. The woman's nude body was
found on the morning after Christmas
in the filthy Five Corners pond of the
Lamp black district of Harrison. For
week the identity of the victim of the
tragedy was mystery.
She was finally identified as the wife
of Theodore s. Whitmore. a motorman
OH shuttle train of the Third Avenue
line. Whitnore was taken to Harrison,
placed in Jail, and upon the verdict
OF the coroners jury was brought
to Jersey City. He was indicted by the
Hudson County Grand Jury in Feb
rlary and held without bail for trial
Since then the date set for his trial
has been changed three times, each
change being a postponement.

Several days ago the young adven-
turer walked into the Central police
station here and asked to be locked
up. He declared that he was penniless
and hungry and that he would kill
himself. He was finally arrested as q
vagrant and number of hotel men
threatened to prosecute him for debt.
Sentenced to Jail.
A distant relative of the young man $
family, a local lawyer, paid the debts,
and Roe was sentenced to ten days in
Jail as a vagrant.
Sentence was suspended and the son
of the millionaire was again turned
into the streets penniless. AS last re-
sort young Roc communicated again
with his father, saying in his letter
that it would be for the last time. lie
said that he was willing to settle down
and live a good life if he could marry
Miss Wallace, but he declared that he
would not live without her.
His father finally relented and SAID
that he would agree to the marriage II
the young couple would come home to
live. and with his heart light for the
first time since he fell ont with his
father, Roe hurried to Miss Wallace,
and was cooliy told that she would
have nothing to do with him.
Less than year ago Roe was on the
payroll of the Standard Oil Company
at a salary of $4,000 year. besides an
income allowed by his father.
He finally took to following the
chorus girl circuit. his wife obtained a
divorce, his father cut off his allowance
and he lost his Standard Oil position.
Still his infatuation for Miss Wallace
was his sole thought.

MORE WORK FOR THE LAWYER.

Five years ago certain man made

why this difference?" asked the
client Have you attained such promi-
nence in the legal profession in the
last five years that you are justified in
doubling your fees?"
Not at all, said the lawyer. There
was twice as much work on this will
as on your old one. You see, at that
time you were a married man and
your will was short, for with the ex-
ception of a few minor requests every
thing was left to your wife Changes
in your domestic relations have made
another will necessary. You are now
bachelor, or bachelors equivalent,
a childless widower. 1t is much hard
er to write will for man of that
type than for a married man. The
man with family usually gives away
everything he possesses in three or
four clauses, but the bachelor divides
his property among so many relatives,
friends and dependents and consumes
so much time in doing it that the
lawyer is justified in charging him
double the usual fee."
