OUTLOOK NOT SO BRIGHT.
TRAGEDY DISCOVERED
BY HIS SERVANTS,
Too Late to 8ave Victim's Life—Wife
Was   Resuscitated—Sensation
Ifl Paris.
PARIS, Sept. 29.—Emile Zola, the
novelist wbo gained additional prominence in recent yean because of hit
defense of the Jews and of former Captain Dreyfus, was found dead ta hit
Paria house this morning. Asphyxiation resulting from the fumes from a
Stove ta his bed room is given as the
cause of death.
M. Zola and his wife retired' at 10
o'clock last night. Madame Zola was
seriously Ul when the room was broken
into this morning. At about noon she
_ was removed to a private hospital
Where she recovered consciousness for
a short time and was able brieflly to
explain to the magistrate what had
happened. M. and Mme. Zola returned
to Paris from their country home at
. Medan yesterday. Owing to a tuddtn
spell of cold weathet the heating Mora
in their bed room was ordered to be
lighted. The stove burned badly and
the pipes of the stove are said to have
been out of order.
To the magistrate Mme. Zola explained that she woke early this morning with a splitting headache. She saw
M. Zola rise and attempt to move toward a window but he staggered and
Ml to the floor unconscious. Mme.
Zola fainted at the same moment* and
was theretore nnable to give the alarm.
Mme. Zola does not yet know of her
husband's death, and lt is feared she
may suffer a relapse when Informed
of it. It is thought tonight, however,
that ahe will recover.
The death of M. Zola, which only
became generally known late this afternoon, has caused a g'reat sensation
in Paris and this evening there was a
constant stream of callers at tiie Zola
residence. M. Zola's body Ues upon a
divan in the center of the spacious
drawing room of his house under a
canopy of rare and ancient hangings.
The body is covered with a sheet and
electric lamps throw their vivid light
upon the wax-like features of the dead.
The servants of the Zola household,
not hearing any movement in tbeir
master's apartment this morning, entered the bed room at 9:80 o'clock and
found .M. Zola lying with his head and
'Shoulders on the floor and his legs on
the bed. Doctors were summoned, but
;;-'they failed to -restore him. Mme. Zola
was unconscious but after prolonged
s efforts on the :part of the physicians
she showed signs of life, but. it was
some time before she became conscious.
A slight odor of carbonic gas was
noticed when tbe servants broke into
the bed room. From the position of M.
Zola's body it was evident that he had
tried to rise but had been overcome by
the fumes from the defective stove.
The servants immediately opened the
bed room windows and sent for a
' physician. A commissary of police was
also summoned.
It was reported here during tbe day
'that there was evidences of suicide in
tbe death of M. Zola.   Nothing has so
far   developed   to   substantiate   this
theory and the   statement   made   by
'Mme. Zola to the magistrate seems to
disprove it.   M. Zola dined with a good
appetite yesterday    evening and   -tba
servants of ths household ate of the
same dishes.    No unusual sound was
heard trom the bed room during the
night   Two Uttlo dogs   belonging to
the Zolas passed the   night   in their
master's room.   They were aUve this
morning.   It is believed they owe their
lives to the fact that one slept on tbe
bed and the other on a chair, thus escaping the heavy carbonic gas which
settled near the floor.
A. druggist, who was the flrst to ar-
1 rive at tbe house to attend M. Zola and
his wife, said:
j     "When I entered the   bed room M.
I Zola was lying partly on the floor.   No
especial odor likely to cause asphyxiation was distinguishable.   M. and Mme.
\ Zola, did not present exclusive symptoms of   asphyxiation.     Their   faces
were contorted and their   Ups    wsre
bloodless, but not   violet   colored.    I
, think the accident was caused by the
\ Zolas inhaling heavy    carbonic    gas,
I which lay mainly below the level of the
(high bed. Ibis would account for Mme
j!-Stain's escape.   They were not suffocated   on   the   bed.      M.     Zola    was
awakened by the effects of gas   and
Hried to rise but he was   seized   With
. vomitlAg, fainted and fell to the floor
where he was suffocated. Mme. Zola
was overcome by the gas but to a much
less degree than ber Husband."
The commissary of police who was
summoned to the Zola residence said
ta his report to the prefect of Paris:
"The heating stove was not lighted
and there was no odor of gas. It ls believed timt M. Zola's death was due to
accidental poisoning by drugs. Two
tUttls dogs found ta the bed room are
alive."
In a second report the commissary of
police endorsed the medical opinion
that M. Zola's death was accidental
and due to asphyxiation. Dr. Leyr-
mand, who attended M. and Mme, Zola,
ie quoted as saying In an interview
■publiShed tbls-afternoon that the heating stove was still warm when he entered tbe room. ,
The prefect of Paris has ordered the
city architect to examine the bed room
to which M. Zola died and has issued
Instructions that an analysis be made
*f his blood and of the atmosphere ta
'the room.
.M. Zola has been resting from uterp
4rv work .since he finished

Operator Markle Says Anarchy Exists
in Anthracite Reg lone.
NEW YORK, Sept 29—John Markle,
the coal operator, discussing today the
statement of President Mitchell, said:
"Mr. Mitchell is not voicing the sentiment of the majority of the miners
in the anthracite coal fields when he
says the sentiment of the miners is
against returning to work. All his
statements bave been refuted by the
facts already given out by the operators."
"But what ls New York, to do - for
cpalt" he was asked.
"If a condition of anarchy existed in
New York now, what would you want?
Yon would want the troops called out
and protection afforded you," said Mr.
Markle.
"That is what ws want. Give us
protection and we will give you all the
coal you want"
Asked whether tbe influence of the
Catholic societies and other tocities
would have any effect in changing the
policy of the operators, Mr. Markle
said:
On the contrary their endeavors will
have but one tendency—to prolong the
strike. The well meant efforts of the
philanthropic people will only inspire
the miners With hope and induce them
to hold out a little while longer to their
own detriment They will only protract the period of coal scarcity. Mr.
Mitchell's organisation will not be
recognized under any circumstances."
mere is still no fixed price for coal
in New York. Some dealers were selling anthracite at $15 a ton today, and
others were selling as low as $14 and
$15. The price generally asked for soft
eoal was $9 a ton.
Massachusetts   Man' Wants   Federal
Government tt Ttkt Control

SPRINGFIBLIL Mass., Sept 29.—
Plans for tht organization of the Peoples Coal League were launched in this
dty today by Herbert Myrick, who organized the League of Domestic Producers three years ago.
The platform fa brief is as follows:
"We demand that the federal government own the coal mines andadmlnlt-
ter- them in the interests of the whole
people."
- Mr. Myrick claims that tbe adoption
of his plan will permanently solve the
edal question by tending to congress
men who have pledged themselves to
favor government ownership of the
coal mines.
The plan includes soft and hard coal
and Mr. Myrick says it will be put before a million readers by Saturday of
thia week. The scheme is declared
non-partisan and non-political and is
designed to effect "such a reform of
the coal industry toat a re-occurrence
of existing conditions will be Impossible."
Tbe league will have headquarters
in Chicago, New York and this city.

To Be Rendered Available by Releasing Retervtt Against Government  Deposits.
NEW YORK. Sept 28.—Secretary
Shaw declined today to discuss the
financial situation further than to say
that the treasury would co-operate as
ter as possible with the banks both
east and west in their effort to supply
the necessary credit to do the unprecedented amount of business that is taxing railroads and steamship Unes as
well as banks, to the utmost
Mr. Shaw said ht hid never seen
any reason why banks holding a government deposit secured by government
bonds should be required to carry a reserve against it. First tt ls a deposit
not likely to be called on at a time of
stringency, and second, if called, the
collateral will always sell for cash and
in excess of the deposit. He bas, since
he took oontrol of the treasury, contemplated relieving the banks of this
burden.
The comptroller of the currency
agrees with the secretary, and therefore lt is announced that hereafter
banks will not be required to carry a
seoured by government bonds.. Ths
treasury has on deposit with various
hanks scattered throughout the oountry
from Maine to California, and from
Minnesota to New Orleans ln round
numbers, 8180,000,000, against which
they have heretofore been compelled
to hold moro than ftO.000,000 of gold
or its equivalent. This decision Will
release that much reserve and $30,000,-
000 additional credit.
The secretary said he would continue to make deposit of internal revenue and miscellaneous receipts,
(available for that purpose) practically
a half million per toy, as long as the
situation required, and if banks were
unable to obtain government bonds to
secure the same he would accept the
same general class of securities as are
made available by the laws of the several" states for savings banks. By this
it la not intended to loan ta excess of
65 per cent, of the par value and nothing wiU be accepted fhat has not been
panic tried and proven- saleable for
cash. He said he should of course determine each case by itself.
