MADRID, July 11. The ex-Empress
Eugenie of France died here this
morning.
Death occurred 6hortly before 8
o'clock from acute intestinal inflam
mation. She passed away quietly in
the presence only of her lady-in-waiting.
Her nephew, the Duke of Alba,
at whose residence she died, was in
France, and the other members of
the family were absent.
Kmprcss Eugenie had long suffered
from opthalmia a.id had been oper
ated on for cataract. Full imperial
honors will be accorded at her
funeral.
Eugenie Marie de Montijo, former
empress of France, was born in Gran
ada, Andalusia, Spain. May 5. 1826.
Her maternal grandfather was Wil
liam 'Kirkpatrick. United States con
Kill at Malaga, who was a native of
Scotland, but a naturalized American.
.Napoleon Her Only Son,
She was educated in France, Spain
and Kngland. She met her husband.
Kmperor Napoleon Hi, first in 1851,
and married him tn Notre Dame ca
thedral, Paris, January SO, 1853.
Prince Napoleon, her only son, the
prince imperial, was born March 16,
1S56.
The empress had great influence
over her husband and on several oc
casions acted as regent during his
absence.
At the outbreak of the Franco
Prussian wr many accused Eugenie
of having been responsible for the
commencement of hostilities. Never
theless the one-time Empress Eugenie
received respectful sympathy and
even after old age had crept upon
her she was reverently greeted by
those who 'saw her in Paris parks
enjoying sunshine and talking with
children. In the Tulleiics gardens
the stcrn-visaged gendarmes looked
the other way when she was plucking
flowers.
Notable Vitality Displayed.
Some time ago Eugenie lost the
sight of one of her eyes and she
bogged that she might be taken to
Spain before she became entirely
blind. Her wish was gratified and
last April . Eugenie again saw the
beauties of Spain. Despite her 94
years she displayed notable vitality.
The cx-Enipress Eugenie was al
most impatient for the end of her
long lease of life. She was 94 years
old. Forty-four years of her life
were sparkling in the successive
roles of the Spanish countess, Eugenie
Marie de Montijo. traveling through
Europe, a visitor to the French court
wife of Napoleon III, and an occa
sional regent of the French empire,
Then in a day the whole structure
of imperial eminence collapsed. The
other half of her life was mournful,
so much so that Eugenie had said:
"I wish 1 had passed when the
shadowy fabric of my dream fell
apart."
That day of disaster was Septem
ber 4, 1870, when she and all Paris
had heard of the defeat and capture
of Napoleon at Sedan. The empress
was popufarly accused of bringing
on that disastrous war with Prussia.
Historians have since declared that
there is little to support such charges,
but the riotous mobs of Paris, shout
ing for the new republic which the
deputies proclaimed, stormed the
palace of the Tuilories and howled
imprecations upon Eugenie's head
until the empress became convinced
that her life was in peril. Flight was
decided upon, but one plan after an
other failed until an exit was found
by way of the Louvre. The empress
in disguise, accompanied only by one
ot her ladies in waiting, was whirled
away in a cab to the residence of the
American dentist. Dr. Thomas J.
Evans. Lost to all Paris the women
spent the night in the protection of
this chivalrous American and the next
day they were-driven off in his car
riage for flight across France to the
channel and the secret boarding of
a yacht for i.ngiana. f
Miafortune Follows Flight.
But exile was not enough. Mis
fortune came in threes. The fall of
the empire was followed by the death
of the exiled emperor. Napoleon HI,
in England three years later, and the
killing of his only son, the prince
imperial, while in battle with the
English -against the Zulus. "Some
times '" wrote the empress in a let
ter which has recently come to light
bearing date of 1873 ''sometimes, on
eretng certain children tearing the
wings off but'terflys and tormenting
poor things that cannot show signs
of suffering, 1 have made the com
parison that people sometimes pluck
out the heart and hurt it without
knowing 'the evil that they do with
- on eternal smile on their lips." This
was written the day before her hus
band died.
The empress, in the two score years
that followed, found intimate friends
in England and interest in travel, in
cluding visits to her former haunts
in Paris. Dressed in black she passed
almost unnoticed where once she was
the leader of one of the most brilliant
courts of the nineteenth century. ii
her occasional interviews she revealed
the strain of mournfulncss in her life.
Heating Place Prepared.
"I am the past, the horizon," she
aid. "There is nothing for me but
to wait: my winter is nearly over.1

EX-EMPRESS
She prepared her last resting place
some years ago by ordering an addi
tion to the mausoleum in the Benedic
tine Abbey which she built at Farn
boroughland where she buried the ex
iled emperor and the prince imperial.
One instance of Eugenie's former
brilliancy recalls the opening of the
Sues canal. She was the center of
the festivities at Cairo, upon which
the khedive is said to have spent all
of the $11,000,000 in his treasury. The
gown she wore at the khedive ball
cost $25,000, and later it served to
pay a debt when she fled from Paris.
It has since been reported as brought
to America for sale.
It has been estimated that the for
tune oT the ex-empress amounts to
$30,000,000. A report was published
in Paris several years ago that she
had been induced to leave her entire
estate to the church, but this has not
been confirmed.
Although more than 90 years old,
the former Empress Eugenie not only
hoped and prayed but worked for the
victory of thj allies in the great world
war of 1914-1918. The war found
her in a splendid home at Farnbor
ough Hill in Hampshire, England.
Early in the conflict she gave up her
quiet and secluded life there so that
her home could be transformed into
a. hospital for wounded British offi
cers. Despite her advanced age she
assumed entire direction of the place
and devoted herself to aiding the
wounded men.
Pruila Srtn Humbled.
While the war was in progress she
had said she hoped to live to see the
Germans driven from France, and also
that she expected to fulfill a gypsy
prophecy that she would live to be
near 10U years old. Alter half a cen
tury of seemingly hopeless waiting,
she lived to see the Prussians hum
bled, and is said to have found con
tentment in her knowledge of their
humiliation in the peace of Versailles.
The once internationally noted beauty
had become a withered and wrinkled
woman, but the ;ove of France still
animated her.
Eugenie was born in Granada,
Spain, in 1826. Her father. Count de
Montijo. was of a noble Spanish fam
ily, while her mother was of Scotch
extraction, her maiden name being
Kirkpatrick.
In their frequent journeys to Aldef
shot to review troops during the wr.
King George and Queen Mary often
called upon the former empress of
France at Farnborough Hill. They
found her alert mentally and that she
kept in touch with the news of the
war S3 few women of half her age
did. Those who knew her said that
her greatest hold on life wa due to
the fact that she was strongly deter
mined to live until the Germans were
driven from France.
ESCAPED FORGER CAUGHT
SIXG SIXG FUGITIVE ELUDES
POLICE 15 YEARS.
Similarity of Names Causes Ar

Picture Found in Rogues Row.
NEW TORK, July 11. (Special.)
Julius Maier, alias Leiter, a former
Sing Sing' prisoner arvd fugitive for
15 years, has been recaptured and was
mprisoned again todav.
Charles F. Rattigan, superintendent
of prisons, sent S. J. Bergin, parole
agent, to Washington, t). c. and Ber
gin returned Maier to sing Sing today.
Maier's downfall is laid to a similarity
of names and a case of mistaken
identity.
The dragnet had been spread by
federal authorities for another Julius
Leiter, a tailor. The police brought
n the former Sing Sing prisoner, who
s also a tailor. The ex-convict, who
is 54, declared his innocence of the
federal offense.
In looking through the rogues
gallery, however, Washington author!
ties found the picture or their prison
er. It appeared on a circular asking
his arrest as a parole violator who
vanished in 1905. Superintendent Rat
tigan was notified that the long-
sought convict had been found.
En route to the prison he told Ber
gin that since violating his parole
and fleeing from this state he had
traveled all over North America. He
still owes the state two years on his
old conviction in New Tork county
for forgery.

Aim. of Teutons to Benefit Miners
Is Approved and Discussion
to That End Suggested.
SPA, July 11. (By the Associated
Press.) After some hesitation, due
to the coal question, the German dele
gates today produced their plan
showing how Germany would deal
with reparations, but they specified
that the decision reached regarding
coal would modify their proposals.
The allied experts admitted he
justice of the German experts' pleas
to relieve Germany of reporting to
the reparations commission regarding
the distribution of coal within Ger
many, and approved the proposal to
increase the output by improving the j
welfare of the miners and suggested
that the German and allied govern
ments discuss means to this end.
Premier Lloyd George III.
The plenary session of the confer
ence began at 5:30 this evening
th Lord Curzon representing Great
Britain instead of Premier Lloyd
George who was confined to his room
with a cold. The conference took up
the coal question, the experts having
failed to come to an agreement.
"The question of coal is a question
of life or death to the Germans," eaid
Dr.- Simons, "and remains the basis
for all other plans."
Premier Millerr.nd replied th?.t
there could be no question of modify
ing the treaty of Versailles on that
subject and that it must be executed.
Dr. Simons thereupon handed the
reparations plan to the general sec
retary of the conference.,
Plan to Three Pnrta.
The German reparation plan is in
three parts. The plan follows:
Part 1, section 1: The German, gov
ernment considers that the purpose
of the present negotiations is to make
a final settlement of their entire ob
ligations for reparations.
Section 2: The Gecman govern
ment, knowing that it is obliged un
der the treaty to pay on May 1, 1921,
120.000.000 gold marks, considers that
it has already paid not only that turn,
but a much higher one, according to
its accounts.
Section 3 sets forth that in provid
ing for the- future the German gov
eminent would bo unable to fulfill
its obligations unless tho German
budget can be balanced.
Section 4 provides that the measure
of Germany's ability to pay. owing
to her weakened economic structure.
requires that she should have neces
sary food, fodder, fertilizers and other
raw materials.
Pay Regulation Sought.
Section 5 names the principles upon
which the German government con
siders its payments shoulu be regu
lated (a) by annuities; (b) annuities
to be limited to 30 years.
Various other sub-sections affirm
that a certain sum should be agreed
upon, after the- payment of which
Germany should be -completely free:
that the payment of this sum should
be arranged in various amounts; that
a schedule should be worked out; and
that it should not be absolutely reg
ular in character, because it is Ira
possible at the present time accu
rately to estimate the economic posi
tion of Germany for the next SO years.
Part two: The German govern
ment's suggestion for rebuilding the
war destroyed district are in the com
mon interests of all peoples because
the danger of a feeling of hatred and
a cry for revenge will not disappear
so long as" this has not been done,
The German government has there
fore, although not required by the
peace treaty to do so, undertaken
participation in the rebuilding of
those districts. It declares Itself
ready to take part In the rebuilding
and to eupply German workmen
under German authority.
German Make Inspection.
Upon this basis a Gegman commis
sion in September, 1913, made a hur
ried inspection of northern France.
The German government is willing to
undertake the rebuilding of the
greater part of the destroyed regions
in France. It recommends in the
common interest that an international
syndicate be formed in which all
states shall participate in the resto
ration of the industrial and agricul
tural regions, as well as means of
transportation and in the rebuilding
of houses, former residences or for
new settlers. This syndicate shall
deal with contractors and engage la
borers from all allied and neutral
countries as well as from Germany.
Part three deals with Germany's
obligations to deliver materials for
the immediate ' restoration of terri
tories affected by the war.
The note says that the reparations
commission has not established what
is to be delivered In the way of cat
tle, tools and raw materials, or what
entire factories are to be restored,
but that Germany is ready to make
these deliveries to the extent which
her resources will permit.
