DEATH TO
BABY'S SQUALLING

Champaign, H., Nov 19.-Aver-
sion to babies and domestic life is as
cribed as the cause for the suicide
yesterday of Professor Wilfred c.
Wheeler. first assistant in chemistry
in the engineering experiment sta
ton at the Univerity of Illinois. The
chemists body was found on the uni
versity campus. He had taken a
larke quantity of cyanide of potas-
sium.
1t was said last night that Wheel
er had taken his meals away from
home since n baby came into the
household. He could not endure the
noise. and expressed great dislike
for babies.
a note left by the professor di-
rected his wife how to collect his life
insurance and referred to his pre-
mediated death as follows:
"I am tired of living; so goodbye
There is no use trying to find out
what happened TO me as 1-2 G.
(grains) of Kon potassium cyanide
are responsible for my fate"
Professor Wheeler was so years
old and was liked by his colleagues.

New York, Nov. 19.-From an Of
flcial in the present administration,
who was prominent also in the pre-
ceding one, the United Press obtain
ed statement regarding the sugar
prosecutions as seen from the view
point of Taft and Roosevelt admins
trations. The statement in part fol-
lows: THE evidence being publish
ed as an attack upon the Roosevelt
administration is in fact that which
Roosevelts administration had gath
cred to defeat the frauds. The whole
thing has been at the disposal of the
press and public and il was because
no details of the sugar trust prose-
cutions were being published in daily
papers that the article entitled, The
Case of the Seventeen Hoholes, ap-
peared at Roosevelts suggestion in
the outlook. The result of these ar
ticles has been to awaken public in
terest in the matter. Any one who
has followed the developments of the
case will realize how unjust, abso-
lutely are the present attacks. The
Roosevelt administration unearthed
the frauds and started the prosecu-
tions. Tafts administration is con-
tinuing the prosecutions and apply
ing such administrative measures as
are necessary to prevent repetition
Of the frauds.
The different prosecutions Of the
sugar trust may be divided under
three heads. Taken in a chronolo-
gical order they are: First, prosccu-
ton for receiving rebates; second.
weighing frauds and third, the Earle
case.
"The cases were begun in Roose-
velt's administration nearly four
years ago. when Henry Stimson was
appointed federal attorney for the
southern district of New York for the
special purpose of prosecuting these
offenses The result was that in sew
en- months the sugar trust was con-
victed and made to pay over four
times as much as any rebate fine ev
er before collected under the rebate
law The total fines collected from
the American Sugar Refining and
subsidiary companies is Sl6S,OOO,
whereas the largest fine before coll
lected had been $4,000. The fine
was of sufficient size to stop the evil.
and established a legal precedent
without the amount being exagger-
ated to an extent which might have
provoked a reaction Of sentiment"
