THINKS WORKS Of
PRINCE JOACHIM
CAUSED CONCERN
Believing He Would Be
Driven From Germany
Divorce Action Brought by
Wife Proved on His Mind

lay Morning Jou1N-t SPECIAL LEASED Vienl
Berlin, July 10 (By the Asso-
ciated Press. 1.-The mental condi-
ton of Prince Joachim. who com
mitted suicide, had lately caused
his family grave concern, his adj
juant. the elderly Colonel Won
Steuben, with whom he conversed
late Friday, without indicating "a
design to take his own life, was 50
alarmed BY the princes depression
the same evening that he told
Prince Eitel of the younger broth
er's condition.
Joachim, says the National Eel
tung, after taking leave of his g.
year-old son. shot himself through
the chest about Friday midnight.
Servants found him early Saturday
lying in front of his bed uncon-
scious. He was removed to a hos
pital and regained consciousness
and was able to talk to Eitel. He
rapidly grew worse and died at l
a. m. Sunday.
Some reports are that Joachim
suffered from the belief he would
be driven from his home by the
republican government. The &c
ton for divorce brought by his
wife, who left him a year ago, also
preyed on his mind.
Prince Eitel Frederick, who Is
in charge of the body, was to have
left today 70" Holland 20 visit his
mother, whose condition of health
