BY The United Press.
COPENHAGEN, Oct liking Otto
Of Bavaria. Europe's MAD King"
died suddenly at the castle Of Fuer-
s,ensried, where he had been confined,
lSape, for several years.
The mad King" OF Bavaria. who
was 20 years old at the time OF his
death. startled Europe by his eccen-
tricitles before he was declared in
capable OF ruling on November 3,
1913. and succeeded by his cousin.
King Ludwig III.
He had nominally succeeded his
brother. King Ludwig ii, in 1856,
when Ludwig committed suicide by
throwing himself into a lake during
a fit OF insanity His uncle, the Regent
Luitpold. was, however, the real ruler
of Bavaria.
During the Franco Prussian war,
Otto first showed symptoms of in
sanity when he called out a squad of
cavalry to make a charge against a
straight stone wall The stone wall,
he said, was a body OF French infan-
try. Later he was summoned by the
Kaiser TO headquarters and it was re-
ported letters were found in his pos
session. offering to make peace with
France He was then put under a
medical escort.
Several years ago the mad king
was Imprisoned In the Fuerstenried
Castle Though in the midst of rich
furnishings. he is reported to have
lived like a savage. refusing 10 have
his hair or nails cut and avoiding wa
ter and soap. For days he would re-
fuse food. imagining IL to be poison
ed His attendants finally persuaded
him to eat by pretending TO hide
food about the palace. The MAD
King then discovered" the food and
believing il had been hidden by the
servants TO satisfy their own appe-
tites. ate it with the greatest relish
He was passionately fond of grand
opera Summoned well-known sing

spent days listening TO operas
On April q OF each year. King Otto
was examined by a government COM
mission. charged with the duty Of re-
porting on his sanity. A few years
ago he became seriously IN from a
carbuncle on his neck and was be-
lieved 10 be dying.

A delegation Of men connected with
the mlsnamed independent Republi-
can" third ticket movement who on
Monday evening. in Philadelphia,
sought the aid of some Re
publican national leaders to try
10 induce Senator Henry A.
dupont TO withdraw as the Republi-
can candidate for Senator. not only
met with no encouragement, but had
impressed upon them the fact that the
Republican National Committee keen
" desires the recollection of Senator
dupont and will extend its support
and cooperation to try to bring about
his election.
This was a shock 10 some Of the
party wreckers, who have been de-
ceived all along by untrue reports, cir
culated for bolstering effect, that Sem
atOr DUPONT might withdraw or might
get off the ticket at the request Of some
of the National Committeeman.
Now the party wreckers are be
ginning to realize that Senator du-
Pont has no intention OF retiring as
the regularlly-nom Republican
candidate for Senator, and have had
the fact thrust home to them that the
Republican National Committee will
not assist any foes of the senior Sen
ator and the Republican party in an
attempt to get Senator DUPONT to
withdraw.
About two weeks ago. Senator
John w. Weeks, OF Massachusetts,
was sounded out" at Republican
-. -. g.. l.. Nrouy Voplg ,Nout the
Delaware situation by caller from
Wilmington who suggested that Sen
ator dupont be asked to step aside
in order to meet the demands OF the
Alice Groves insurgents and the
hacker OF the third ticket About an
houh after the first Delaware caller
left. another Wilmington Republican
called on Senator Weeks, talked over
the Delaware situation with him,
and assured him that Senator DUPONT
was on the Republican ticket to stay
and any suggestion that he withdraw
would find no favor with Senator du
Points friends.
Senator Weeks is looking after the
campaign in some OF the Eastern
States for the national committee, and
learning that he would be in Phila-
delphia for the Hughes rally on Mon
day night some of the would-be party
wreckers who were in conference with
Alfred l. DUPONT in this city on that
day decided to call on Senator Weeks.
The delegation comprising some men
from this city and from Sussex county,
called on Senator Weeks at the Belle
vue-Stratford and asked him to try to
have Senator DUPONT to withdraw as a
Senatorial candidate.
The situation was discussed at some
length. and the upsbot of It all was
that Senator Weeks told the delega-
ton he would not even suggest that
Senator DUPONT get off the ticket, and
he added that the national committee
Will support Senator DUPONT for re.
election as the Republican nominee
Senator Weeks also expressed high
personal regar dior his colleague
Senator DUPONT
Futile efforts also have been made
by the party wreckers TO try to have
Senator Penrose OF Pennsylvania q
take a hand in the Delaware situation
