There Are No Facts to Account for His Act. The body of the late Franklin Gowen, ex- President of the Reading railroad, the details of whose suicide at Wormley’s hotel were given in Saturday's Star, was removed to Philadel- phia early yesterday morning on a special train tendered by the Baltimore and Ohio. It was secompanied by Francis L Gowen and James E. Hood of Philadelphia, nephews of the dead man. The interment will be at Germantown. The news of the suicide created intense excitement im Philadelphia, where Mr. Gowen's name is familiar to all, Grief and surprise were expressed on every hand and many theories were advanced as to the motive, all, however, crystalizing into a belief that the fatal step was taken during a fit of despondency, amounting to insanity, resulting from the disappointment over the outcome of a law case on which he was engaged all last week. This was the claim of George Rice, an Ohio oil refiner, against several railroads, A dispatch to the Philadelphia Press says: “Though Mr. Gowen did not show it in b os marr Srp lente oe was ee inted at finding it was impossible Us the evidence to prave the claim made ioe client. The evidence being under the contr of the railroads was not easily reached. Mr. Gowen felt that he had a good case, a case worthy of his talents and energies, but he could not a it. A theory held among the lawyers who had been before the interstate commerce commission this week is that this disappointment may have been the unto- ward breath which fanned the smouldering fires of mental aberration.” WHAT HI8 CLIENT SAYS, No one was more surprised than his client, Mr. Rice, who seid: “can't imagine why he should take his life. To my thinking he had not a care in the world, He has been conduct- ing my case forme. It ended on Thursday, and after adjournment I asked him to draw up alittle pay ‘ for me, which he did, at the same time laughing and Joking over some humorous incident in ne case. When he had finished drawing up the paper I asked him when he was going home. He Cad seo Shak be van et for a telegram from Titusville, where he ha some cases pending. ‘If I get it tonight,’ said he, ‘I'll take the 8 o’clock train on Friday morning.’ Tob oenkeb- then and yesterday I thought I'd [shes ormley's and see if he had gone away. ‘hat was at 1 o'clock yesterday, Isaw him at the hotel and he said that he was still waiting for atelegram. We had some conversation and then I bade him good-bye. Even then he was cheerful and spparently had no weighty matter on his mind. don’t think business caused him to take his life, because his papers were neatly done up, just ‘as he had brought them from the interstate commerce room. From their appearance it is evident that he had not been looking over them.” 4 SHOCK TO HIS FAMILY. ‘The news was a terrible shock to his family, consisting of wife, mother, daughter and sister, all of whom at first refused to believe that the beloved one had taken his own life. Mrs. Gowen and her daughter started for Washing- ton, but were met at Wayne Junction by Fran- cis Gowen, who persuaded them to return home while he came to this city. The mem- bers of the family positively refused to be in- terviewed and the closest personal and busi- ness friends of Mr. Gewen are unable to assign any reason why he should wish to end his life, It is said that Mrs.Gowen tcld a close triend of the family that for ten days previous to her busband’s last visit to Washington she had no- ticed something strange in his conduct, It is thought by ay here that the great lawyer's mind became unbalanced through too persist- ent application to business, and that the suicide was due to this cause, Edward C. Knight, former president of the Jersey Central road, and a very close friend of Mr. Gowen, sais “I cannotimagine any cause for Mr. Gowen’s suicide, if suicide it was. He wasa courageous man, @ ‘bold man, and this must be said of him, @ moral man and of the sternest integrity. His judgment has been attacked severely and mer- cilessly, but his personal integrity never. I last saw him about fifteen days ago. He called upon me and we talked over a iter of mutual interest. He was as bright and cheerful as he always was. I saw no indicatiun of mental failure or distress, Iam under the impression that Mr. Gowen was worth well on to a million of dollars. 1 remember that some years ago he told me that when he was district attorney of Schuylkill county he bought a large tract of coal land ata very low price that today would Sehr estate worth nearly the amount I have named.” THEORY OF MURDER, A detective friend of Mr. Gowen came on to Washington for the purpose of hunting up murder clews, but found nothing to encourage him in his search, The fact of suicide is firmly established by the testimony of the man who sold Mr. Gowen his pistol on Thursday. His description of the customer tallies so closcly with thst of the deceased as to leave no room for doubt, This manis D. N. Walford, 477 Pennsylvania avenue, who remembers selling a pistol such as was found in the suicide’s room toa tall, elderly geutieman, smoothly shaven, with grayish hair, a kindly face and pleasant, courteous manners. He said to Mr. Walford: “I want a good one.” The proprietor sold the man a Smith & Wesson 38-caliber revolver.nickel | plated. with a pear! stock, for $13.59,and 60 cents, worth of cartridges, There was nothing peculiar about the nian’s actions, but, on the contrary, he appeared gentlemanly and was pleasing in his manner. SKETCH OF MR. GOWEN. Franklin Benjamin Gowen was born in Phila- delphia February 9, 1936. He was admitted to the bar in 1860, and in less than three years was elected attorney for Schuylkill county, und after two years’ service was employed as attor ney for the Philadelphia and Keading railroad, in 1870 he became president of that road, a| pak he held till 1886. He wasa member | j of the Pennsylvania constitutional convention | of 1872, in which body he ranked as one of its | ablest and most efficient membe: prosecution of thi ers, in 1876, he took a promiuent part, appear- | ing on the part of the state, and it was largely | owing to his energy that the culprits were hunted down and convicted. and the reign of terror which they maintained in the mining regions for a score of years was brought to an end with their execution. While never taking | an active part in politics Mr. Gowen was always » stench democrat, and wasa delegute to the national convention which nominated Mr, Tilden for President. The most thrilling incident in Gowen’s career was his relentless war on the**Mollie Maguires” in the Schuylkill coal region and his breaking up of that organization in the condemnation and hanging of Jack Kehoe and nine of his followers in 1876. Gowen risked his life in the | trial of these cases. He conceived and estab- lished the Reading coal and iron company, the largest mining company in the United States, He and Robert Garrett were close friends. In Mr. Garrett's memorable interview with W. H. Vanderbilt the two were talking of Gowen when Vanderbilt died. After his retirement from the presidency of the road in 1886 he devoted hi self to the practice of hie profession, but never gave op up the idea of sometime again being at head of the Reading organization. He was the legal adviser of the late J. V. William- son and drew the will which disposed of @11,- 000,000 ae operty. His legal practice of late years has mM enormous an been quoted as having an income from this source of $100,000 a year. A dispatch from Boston says: Members of the American fede President Gowen, have only him. They all that he was the enemy of organized labor, and they hold him nsi- ble for ing innocent coal miners as Molly Maguires. P. . until today secre- taryof the federation, said that a kind Provi- dence had kindly got ite revenge for the hang- ing of Mollie Maguires. 4 MURDER THEORY. In Philadelphia a theory that Gowen was murdered is being discussed. A detective is quoted in the Press of tnat city as stating that the fact that there was no singeing of the hair or discoloration of the skin ar: | opportunities to all, and the Jew, who knows , Future (igeomape fiuding still greater means THE SITUATION IX THE ROOM. The situation in Mr. Gowen’s room at the time his body was found was such as to point almost conclusively to suicide. The door was locked on the inside, with the key still in its hole, The transom was closed, as well the two — which opened into a paved area or court. murderer, if there was one, had three a modes of exit: the door, the transom, the windows, That he did not use the door is shown by the fact that it was locked on the inside. ‘That he couldnot have gone through the transom, it is claimed, by the fact that when the room was entered it was necessary to pull off the the transom frame in order to ad- a asmall boy, That he probably did not es- cape from the windows is evidenced by the fact that they look from a second story and that the fall to the pavement below is about 50 feet, SP oa p that would — stings Loctigtes and attract ation, besides w! windows were closed, a feat mistoet impossible to a man about to leap from a sill, ‘he firesescape is not in reach. ——_—__—_re-—_______ THE PATRIOTISM OF THE JEW. An Eloquent Lecture by the Rabbi Krauskoff. A brilliant and distinguished audience greeted Rabbi Joseph Krauskoff at the Wash- ington temple on 8th street last night, Rabbi Krauskoff's reputation as an eloquent orator and finished scholar had preceded him from Philadelphia, and much was expected in his lecture last night. The L0O.B.B, society were the hosts for the occasion, Hon. Simon Wolf introduced the lecturer, who, choosing for his subject “Jewish patriotism,” held his audience fully in his grasp from start to finish. The lecturer held up both general and special ex- amples of the highest patriotism among Jewish men and women. In his opening remarks the speaker referred most aptly to an article in the Revue des Deu Mondes describing a convocation of nations, in which the representatives from each laid claim to being the instigator of the French revolu- tion of 1789. The American, from the example set in 1776; the Englishman, from the deed rformed by the English people in 1688; the erman, from the Lutheran reformation; the Italian, to the influence of Dante and Petrarch; the Greek to the example sent down to future ages by the ancient Greeks, and lastly the Jew, who says that for the example the student must go back of the reformation, back of the renais- sance, back of Greek antiquity, back of the evangelists, back to the Bible of the Jew. Patriots like Moses, Jeremiah and Isaiah were the first revolutionists. Every revolution sinco bes been but an echo of a sound first heard in udea. Referring to the Jew asa patriot Mr. Kraus- koff said: “Give your imagination wing, let it roam from continent to continent, from pole to pole and from sea to sea, let it be an eye wit- ness of the greatest battles ever fought, let it reanimate the nations that are dead and ques- tion the People that are alive, and then let it name tous the people, dead or living, whose patriotiem bas equaled that of the Jew.” TRE OPPRESSION OF THE JEW. ‘The general meaning of patriotism was next discussed by the orator, and he proceeded to show that the wrongs suffered by England, France, America, the Russian nihilists and the Irish Fenians were but infinitesimal compared with the grievances visited upon the Jews for 1,800 years; but, while others inaugurated bloody reigns of terror, slaughter and riot, the Jew patiently suffered, heroically endured; in short, remained the patriot. jontinuing,” said Mr, Krauskoff, ‘‘this pa- triotism of the Jew is to me his highest virtue, In this he stands peerless in the mighty tomes of history. To be a patriot in return for a country’s kindness, to love people who love us, is noble. Tobe a patriot to a country that degrades, to love a people that despises, is divine. The orator referred in a most seamen man- ner to the examples of patriotism shown by the Jews in England, Germany, France and the other Earopean nations. He referred to the marks the nation bad ieft on the annalsof med- icine, philosophy, science and literature. The great musicians were also held up as examples. THE JEW IN AMERIOA, In closing Mr. Krauskoff paid an eloquent tribute to the United States, He said: “Our | government extends equal rights to all her law- abiding people, loves all alike, affords equal how to return good for evil, how to offer his patriotism to a country in return for her cruel treatment, will surely be all the more eager to return good for good and to passionately love the country and the people that love him. He has written the story of his patriotism with his heart's blood inthe lat civil war. He has proven his patriotism in his unimpeachabie | official integrity whenever his country or the people entrusted an office to his charge. He has proven his patriotism by the active interest he has taken ia the uy; palletes of ts ustlon's peteperly, te het | proven his patriotism by ranking to- | day, despite the influx of pethaps 200,000 un- fortunate Jews from tyrannous ussia, as the most law abidiug, as the least troublesome, as the least addicted to vice and riot aud crime of all American citizens. And we have only but begun. Scarcely half acentury has passed since the great bulk of our Jews immigrated to this country, limited, as a rule, in means and often, also, in culture. With the first generation it was a hard struggle for existence. The second generation, finding means more abundant, foun o more culture, and still betier example, wiil take their rank among the greatest statesmen and patriots of our land, The whole American people will his people. Only in his s synagogue will he be Jew with Jew—in the world he will be man with man, American with American, patriot with patriot.” The Poet Browning’s Funeral. The funeral service over Robert Browning, the poct, was held yesterday in the Palazzo Rezzonico, The family desired to inter the remains at Florence, but in accordance with the desire of the English people the body will | be taken to London tomorrow for interment | in Westminster Abbey. At the service the coffin was covered with beautiful wreaths, one | of which had been sent by the municipal an- thorities of Venice. Many diplomats and offi. cials and a large number of English and Ame! can residents, including Mrs. Bronson, an inti- | mate friend of the poet, were present at the | service, The cortege started at 4 o'clock. ‘The | body bad been placed on a splendid funeral | barge, which was towed by a steamer of the | royal navy. On the barge as a guard of honor | were members of the municipal guard and fire- men. The family and intimate friends fol- lowed in by, poe gondolas, ‘The coffin was de- posited in the central chapel of the cemetery | ors St. Michael, where it will remain until the | conclusion of the formalities attending its transportation to London. A memorial tablet will be placed in the facade of the Palazzo Rezzonico, ———_—+e«______ A Fierce Attack ou Ex-Gov. Ordway. In the North Dakota senate Saturday Senator Lamoure of Pembina county made a savage attack on ex-Gov. Ordway, charging him with bribe-giving, bribe-taking aud other miscon- | duct, creating a sensation m the chamber and lobby. He said he could prove that in the or- —— of Ramsey county Gov. Ordway sent | lank commissions to his agents aud effected a H deal with Judge Palmer to locate the county seat of Ramsey county. He then alluded to the governor's son, George Ordway, as a drunkard, whose appointment as territorial auditor, he | claimed, was forced by the oye against the | wishes of the council, said further that Ordway’s administration of the office of auditor left no record of his dealings with the insurance companies, and closed with the remark: ‘ou | can draw your inference as to the cause of poor nai motion to expunge the entire pro- ym the records of the senate was | lout and it wes referred to a committee of five, | Ex-Gov.
