DRIVER IN GLIDDEN TOUR
FALLS HEIR TO 81, 100000
Future Millionaire Has $40 and
No Cap When Told of
Fortune

DIES MONIES, Iowa, June 29.-Word
was received here last night from Chi
cago that Rudolph Faas, driving a car
in the Glidden tour, has fallen heir
to a fortune of $1,500,000 through the
death of his grandfather, Rudolph A.
Faas, of Wurtemburg, Germany.
The news found no more surprised
man than FaaS himself.
Il certainly have grandfather in
Germany" he said, land I also eX
pected to get a little something from
him, but l never dreamed of anything
like this My grandfather and my ia
ther were not always the best of
friends, but l have long been in line
for some of his estate. My father is
his only living child, all the other
children being dead.
Il received a letter from my grand.
father about two months ago and he
told me he was sick, but I had no idea
he was near death. There is some
thing ironical about this piece of good
luck. Right now I have just 500 in
my pocket. Isn't that joke to be
worth a million and a half and have
only $50, and 1 am driving without
cap?"
Faas' grandfather was formerly the
chief forester TO Emperor William and
through his royal patron made his for
tune.

DR.. HYDE DENIED NEW
TRIAL IN SW0PE CASE
Appeal to Supreme Court and Mo-
ton for Release to De Heard

KANSAS CITY, June 29.-Dr. B. c..
Hyde, convicted May 16 last of poison
ing Colonel Thomas H. Swope, the mil
lionaire philanthropist, was denied a
new trial by Judge Ralph S. Latshaw
in the criminal court here today.
The prisoners attorney Immediately
filed motion for arrest of judgment
and the Judge set Tuesday next as the
time for arguing the point. When this
motion is disposed of next week the
matter of appeal to the supreme court
and a motion to release DR.. Hyde on
bond will be taken up.
Mrs Hyde sat beside her husband
during the reading of Judge Latshaw's S
decision. Neither appeared disturbed
by the courts refusal to grant new
trial.
Hyde smiled back at his wife as he
was returned to his cell.
In regard to the charge of the de-
fense that he had prejudiced the jury
against the defendant in revoking the
latter's bond and sending him to Jail
while the trial was in progress, Judge
LatshaW said ten of the jurors had
made affidavits that they did not know
DR. Hyde had been sent to Jail until
after the trial was finished and the
jury's verdict was not influenced by
the courts action. He said that his
action in admitting evidence relating
to crimes charged in other indictments
against Dr. Hyde other than the one on
which he was tried was supported by
numerous decisions which he cited.
The court said that it was proper
to admit evidence that the defendant
had used cyanide in committing the
crime even though the indictment read
that the deceased came to his death
by the administration of strychnine or
other poisons. The defendant in his
motion for a new trial contended that
the indictments should have stated spe-
officially what poisons were used.

REDUCE WESTERN
FREIGHT CHARGES
Continued from Page one)


class and commodity rates between
eastern points and the far west.
No complaint was made in any of
the cases of the rates of the eastern
lines between Atlantic points and Mis-
sissippi river transfers, and all of the
reductions ordered by the commission
affect the rates from Mississippi river
and Missouri river transfer points to
Pacific coast terminals and intermoun-
tain territorial points.
REDUCE PASSENGER RATES
Astonishing facts were developed con-
cerning the earning capacity of the
Pacific lines. The commission shows
that during the last two years the
operating revenues of the Southern
Pacific companys Pacific system had
increased sS,000 900, while its operating
expenses had decreased $4,000 thus
producing an increased operating in
come of over $13,000,000, or a net in
crease of about $4,000 per mile of road"
The commission provides that the
carriers shall take account of their
earnings during July, August and
September under both the existing
rates and the proposed new rates, with
a view to determine the precise relation
between two systems of rates.
The passenger rates between Utah
common points and Omaha and Port
land are not found to be unreasonable
as alleged, but the fares between Salt
Lake City and Los Angeles, Salt Lake
City and San Francisco and between
Ogden and Provo and San Francisco
are declared to be unreasonable and
they are ordered reduced.

NOTED MAN AND WOMAN
MUSICIANS FOUND DEAD
German Authorities Call Tragedy
Murder and Suicide

STUTTGART. Germany, June %
DR.. Alloys Obrist. the famous musical
conductor, and Anna Suffer- a court
singer, were found dead together
today. Both had been shot. Appear
ances indicated that one had been
murdered and that the other had COM
mitted suicide.
DR.. Obrist was born at San Reno.
Italy, in 1867. He conducted the royal
opera here in 1907 and 1908. The dis
coVery of the bodies of the musician
and his woman companion was a
shock not only to DR.. Obrists intl-
mates in musical circles, but to the
public at large, among which he was
a notable figure. Mystery envelops the
affair, but the impression is strong
that the same hand killed both.
Dr. Obrist was Df SWiss-ScOtch de-
scent. His mother came from the
north of Scotland and his father
family have been engaged either in
the government service or in agricul-
ture in the vicinity of Zurich for 600
years.
DR.. Obrist had made Weimar his
home since 1876 and for many years
had occupied the villa Alisa. He was
director of the Lissuet museum and
was appointed royal conductor by the
king of Wurtemburg. He was the
author of several contributions to mu-
steal literature, ON which subject he
was regarded as an authority.

ZEPPELIN To RESUME
VOYAGES IN CLOUDS
Count Is to Repair Deutschland
and Himself Take Helm
on Next Trip

OSNABRECK, Germany. June 20
Count Zeppelin, disappointed and dis
couraged, hurried here today to super
intend the salvage of his latest aerial
model, the great ariship Deutschland,
which came to grief in less experienced
hands yesterday. The count, who will
be 70 years old Friday of next week,
has an engagement for the near future
to fly from Friederichshafen to Vienna
and exhibit his invention to Emperor
Francis Joseph, and he proposes to
make good his promise.
The prospects for the early resump-
tion of the passenger service, how
ever, are not bright.
The airship company announces that
the accident will necessitate a suspen-
sion for several months of the ad-
yertised excursions.
After hours of perilous flight, during
which it was driven hither and thither
at the caprice of a gale, the Deutsch-
land found desperate refuge in the
trees of Teutoburgian Wald. It's frame
work was wrenched and the great en-
velope badly torn. The thirty-two pas
sengers, including twenty newspaper
men, had narrow escapes. 1t was
found today that it would be neces-
sary to dismantle the airship, and this
was begun.
The next voyage of the Deutschland
will be made with Count Zeppelin at
the helm.

SENATOR DANIEL DIES
AFTER LONG ILLNESS
Veteran Democratic Leader Ex-
pireS in Sanitarium at
LynChburg, Va.
Continued from Page onel

e. NJ. Daniel, and his son-in-law, Fred
Harper, were associated in the prac
tice of law with him.
Entering the confederate army as
second lieutenant of the "Stonewall
Brigade" in May, 1861, he was wound
ed in the first battle of Manassas.
Soon after he became second lieuten-
ant of company A, One Hundred and
Eighteenth Virginia infantry, and
afterWard was first lieutenant and
then adjutant of his regiment.
After being wounded he was pro
NOTED to major and chief of staff of
Gen. Jubal Early, serving until Grip
pied at the battle of the Wilderness,
May 6, 1864 1t was said by eye
wounded almost Immediately after ne
had rescued Gen. Robert E. Lee from
a very perilous position.
He served in the Virginia house of
delegates from 1869 to 1872, and in the
state senate from 1875 to 1881, being a
state senator when he was named for
governor in 1881 on the Democratic
ticket, to be defeated by William L.
Cameron.
In 1884 he was elected to the house
of representatives in the forty-ninth
congress, and before that term eX-
pired was elected United States sem
ator for the term beginning March +,
1887 succeeding William Malone. He
was reelected three times, twice with
out opposition. In January last he was
reelected for the term expiring 1917,
but he was physically unable to go to
Richmond, as was his custom, to eX
press publicly his appreciation. He
was a Democratic elector-at-large in
1876, and represented the state as
delegate-at-large to six national Dem
ocratic conventions.
He was a leader in the recent Vir-
ginia constitutional convention and
wrote the suffrage report which prac-
tically settled the suffrage question in
Virginia.
Virginia never had n more popular
statesman. He was ever faithful to
the ideas Of Demo cracy and never once
was the confidence of his people
shaken in him. An indication of his
character was shown when he as
sumed personal debts of his father
amounting to 100000, for which there
was no moral claim upon the son.
He felt his duty however, to dis
charge these, and on his siXty-fifth
birthday had the distinct pleasure of
making the last payments.
Senator Daniel was a loyal cOnfed
crate veteran, having been for years
commander of Dearing camp at Rust
berg. His last public utterance was
before Garland Roses camp Of Lynch
burg, whom that organization com
memorated the recent anniversary of
the birth of Gen. Robert 1. Lee.
