diately Lost consciousness. The duchess
was seiz d with panic and screamed for
aid. A maid who responded to her cry
was hurriedly despatched for Ir. Isco

summoned another physician. The two
doctors arrived simultaneously at the
bedside of tlie sufferer and administered
' the most powerful stimulants, but their
efforts were in vain.
The duchess was holding the duke In
her arms when he expired. She was
overcome by grief and could not be per
suaded by some of her American friends,
.who visited the apartment, to leave the
h dslde of her dead huxband. and kept
vigil there throughout the night.
Shouts Hurries tu Pauehlcr.
Theodore P. Shonts was notified by

Milllngton Drake and other friends did
what they could to comfort the dis

what during the afternoon.
When the death of the tuo de Chaul
nes became generally known today a
steady stream of the duke's friends, In
cluding a number of members of the
Krenoh nobility, culled at the hotel and
left cards of condolence.
Rumors of Mystery Dispelled.
The refusal of the hotel authorities
a during the afternoon to give particulars
concerning the death of the duke led to
repoits that there was some mystery
surrounding It. but these were complete
! dissipated by M. Jeanton, a police
lli sit-tnn, who made an examination f
Hie body in the presence of other phy
sicians and ofhVlnlly certified that duath
was due to a natural cause and that
Ihcre was no necessity for an autopsy.

the Church of St. Philip de Roule. where
It will remain pending arrangements for
the funeral, which, it la expected, will
not take place until after tha arrival of
Mr. Shonts from New York.

In accordance with the traditions of
the French nobility, tho funeral will be
a pretention function and will attract
to Puris th; representatives of the most
ancient families in France, with which
the dukes family Is allied.
The Inie de fhaulnrs was born in
Paris in InTS. Derides his residence In
the Pare Monceau quarter of Paris, he
had ik chateau In the Department of the
Sarlhe. He was well known for his In

in the United Status, and the couple
sailed for the other side on March 17. on
board the steamer Teutonic.
The duke Inherited a tine patrimony

anchor In the four ports of Los Angeles
for Just a week and their going marks
the close of what is generally regarded
here as one of the most important
periods In the history of the city. It

public aboard most of the vessels. The
days and nights have all been tilled with
merrymaking.
A run of seven hours tomorrow will
bring the flet to Santa Barbara for a

HAYWOODIS'TIRED"
Ousted From Executive Board
of Federation.
DEBAUCH CAUSES DISGUST
Employed to Organize Branches in
East, He Preaches ' Socialism.
Drunken Escapade at Den
ver Climax of Disgrace.
DENVER, Colo., April 4. (Special.)
William D Haywood, for many years the
secretary-treasurer of the Western Fed
eration uf Miners, has b;en.outed from
the executive board of the organization
by the members of that body. Announce
ment of this action appeared officially In
a statement published in the official organ
of the Federation the Miners Magazine
today. For some time he ha been East, lectur
ing on Socialism and soliciting members
for the Federation. He was paid for his
work as solicitor, but was not supposed
to spread the Socialist propaganda. It
Is apparent that Haywood's activity In
that capacity has not met with the ap
proval of the executive board.
Haywood, who was recently summoned
from Chicago to Salt Lake City by the
death of his mother, stopped at Denver
on his return and went on a long drunk,
which caused his removal. During this
debauch he was ordered out of one of the
toughest salouns In Denver for becoming
a nuisance,
DUTIES NOT NEGLECTED
Secretary Tatt Attending to tha War
Department Job.
ORBGONIAN NEJWS BUREAU. Wash
ington. April 14. About once a
month the Roosevelt third-termers put
out a report that Secretary Tatt Intends
to resign, and whan the report is denied
these same politicians criticize the Secre
tary for remaining in the cabinet while
promoting his campaign. If Taft resigns
it will not be until after the Chicago con
vention has nominated him for the presi
dency. Should he be nominated, and de-.
clde to personally participate in the cam
paign, he might quit his war department
Job and go on the stump. But In the pre
eonventlon campaign ha will do his cam
paigning between times, simultaneously
conducting the affairs of the war depart
ment, as has been his custom.
The busines of file war department has
not been imp;ded In the slightest by rea
son of Secretary Taft's occasional tripe;
that department is perhaps the best busi
ness branch of the Government service.
It is a well-organised machine, going
ahead along lines laid out by the Secre
tary, and as long as It runs so success
fully and Its operations are satisfactory to
the President and to those having business
in the department, there is no just cause
for demanding the resignation of Secre
tary Taft.
Oil of Nutmeg Poison.
Medical Record.
Poisoning by the oil of nutmeg Is a
comparatively infrequent occurrence, al
though perhaps not so rare as is com
monly supposed. Dr. Wallace, a few
years ago, male somewhat extensive In
vestigations Into the matter, and con
cluded that cases of poisoning resulted
exclusively from the use of the crude
nutmeg or mace. Professor A. R.
Cushny gave an address on the subject
before the British Royal Society of
Medicine In which h said that as far
back as 15T6 Lobellus related a case in
which woman was rendered delirious
by th Ingestion of nutmeg. The symp
toms are drowsiness, stupor and diplopia;
delirium is often present, and on occa
sion the first symptom is burning pain
in the stomach, precordial anxiety or gui
dine s. In the cas of a boy who died
from the effects of eating two nutmegs
the symptom resembled those caused
by cannabis indica. The speaker dem
onstrated that a powerful poison was con
tained In the oil of nutmeg, and stated
that from experimental work he had come
to the conclusion that the symptoms
were to be attributed to the actiun en
the central nervous system. This is de
pressed, but exhibits soma indications of
stimulation in the form of restlessness,
slight convulsive movements and tremor.
The oil also exerts a marked local action,
whether sivon by the mouth or bypo
dermlcally. Swedish Consul for Coast.

FROWN ON SCOTT'S JUNKET
Senate Military Committee Against
Army Post Inspection Trip.
OREGOXIAN KEWg BUREAU. Wash
ington. April 24 Notwithstanding
most Senators and Representative
will be busy in the campaign, Senator
Scott of West Virginia is trying to ar
range a pleasant junket at Government
expense, for the benefit of Senators on
the military committee. Senator Hale
recently made some rather caustic re
mark about the maintenance of un
necessary Army posts, though he had
no purpose of seriously pressing hi
objection. Senator Scott seized upon
this opportunity to propose an extend
ed tour for the military committee,
which would take them to every Army
post In the United States, and possibly
into some of the outside possessions
the Senate contingent fund to pay the
expenses.
In an oft year the committee might
stand in for such a junket, but Senator
Scott would have, difficulty (n muster
ing a quorum to make such an extend
ed tour this Summer or Fall. Person

if he can't travel at Government ex
