Complications Set in After Three OPP
erations in Spite Of All That
Medical Science Could Do

Berlin.-Hugo SHINES, the most
powerful figure in the industrial life
of Germany, died Thursday, April 10.
There had been no hope of his re-
covery for many hours, and the fore
most medical skill could do nothing
against the avage of disease. Three
major operations had been performed,
the first about four weeks ago for gall
stones, and it was owing to the i'm
possibility of keeping the patient quiet,
according to the surgeons, that COM
plications arose, necessitating further
operations, the last one Sunday. II
was also reported hat pneumonia de-
veloped.
The ~far-reaching business enter
prises of the man, his great Influence
among political leaders and his eccen.
tricities had, since the war, taken o
strong hold on the German people, anc
his death, though expected, has caused
anxious speculation as to who may
arise to take his place.
Hugo SHINES was spoken of in con
tinental Europe as the German who
owned everything in sight, and from
the peculiar pleasure he found in con
fiding the size of his fortune to al
who would listen, the details of his
vast industrial enterprises and the
extent of his mining, shipping an6
newspaper holdings were never left
very much in doubt.
The industrial prince of Germany
cared nothing for luxury, and had ne
personal eXtravaganceS. He owned
several motor cars, but usually walked
or rode in a trolley car. If his pres
ence were required at one of thu
mines, he might be seen Flooding along
the street with a group of ~blackenet
miners, or else clinging to a strap il
a street car surrounded by his work
ers, who treated him as one of theil
number.
His apartments were modest, al
though he owned the hotel in which HI
lived. His country place outside Der
lin was a simple cottage with a LITTLE
