CO. KRUGER'S BOM
y EXHUMED IN FIGHT
h OVER INSURANCE
3iysicians Differ as to
Whether Transit Company
President's Death Was
Due to Heart Disease or
Accident.
The body of Chnrlos O, KruRcr, lata
president df tha Philadelphia Rapid Tran
sit Company, who felt dead nt the
Itacquet Club on Nevcmber t, hag been
exhumed and examined by physicians
In an effort to sottle a dispute as to tho
cause of death.
A sharp controversy, arising out of tho
fact that accident policies hnd been taken
out by Mr. Jimger with the Travelers'
InsrnnCo Company, has resulted from the
findings at tho autopsy and the claim ot
Airs. Elizabeth Kauffman Krugcr for pay.
ment of her husband's accident policies
Though it was said at tho time of his
death that Mr. KrUger had succumbed to
heart disease, Mrs. Kruger, through her
attorney, Bernard J. O'Connell, entered a
claim on December G for payment of the
accident policies on the ground that Mr.
Krugcr had died as tho result ot an In
jury to his heart Induced by an automo
bile collision on November .1, tho day be
fore his death.
Physicians for tho Krugcr family as
serted today that tho autopsy proved
conclusively that Mr. Kruger's death was
brought about by the automobile accident.
On tho other hand, physicians actinic for
the Insurance company aro as positive
that tha accident had nothing to do
With It.
EVIDENCE OP CHAUFFEUK.
If the case Is contested In court the
Insurance company, It Is said, will pro
duce an nfndavlt sworn to by William O.
MoCre, who was chauffeur for Mr. Krugcr
for two years, setting forth that tho acci
dent amounted to nothing more than a
light bump between tho Kruger machlno
and another owned by William Lord
Sexton.
The collision, according to Moore, was
so) slight that tha cars did not even atop
at tho time. It occurred at Droad street
and Allegheny avenue on the morning of
November 3. Twenty-seven hours later,
after luncheon at tho Itacquet Club. Mr.
Kruger fell unconscious In tho billiard
room of the club and died a few moments
later.
Dr. L. D. Roberts, examining physician
for tho Travelers' Company, dcclnred to
day that he had "never seen a clearer
case of heart disease." There was not
the slightest ovldcnce, ho said, that Mr.
Kruger had died from anything but
natural causes. His heart had been af
fected tor some time. Doctor Roberts
aid, but the accident had not aggra
vated the condition.
W, F. Marshall, head of tho claim de
partment of tho Travelers' Insurance
Company, 115 Walnut streets, was equally
positive the accident hnd nothing to do
,wlth Mr, Kruger's death. "Thero is nothing-
tp show that the death was caused
by tho accident," ho said.
HOW ACCIDENT HAPPENED.
William Moore, whose evidence may bo
Important, said he had been employed for
five years by the Rapid Transit Company
and that for the lost two he hod been
chauffeur for Mr. Kruger, driving a motor
car owned by tho clmpany. On the morn
ing of November 3, ho sold, ho was driv
ing Mr. Kruger south on Broad street on
his way to the company's offices In tho
Land Title Pulldltur.
At Indiana avenue a car owned by
William L. Sexton appeared suddenly
from behind a street car and bumped
against the top of the Kruger machlno.
Neither car stopped, at tho moment, but
later he and Mr. Kruger got out to
look at the damage.
Mr. Kruger took the accident as a Joke.
Mooro says, and stood laughing about it
while tho chauffeur arranged the top so
that they could proceed. The shock of
the collision was so slight, Moore says,
that neither ho nor Mr, Kruger was even
jarred,
SIR. KRUOER'S BODY EXHUMED.
A month after the accident Mrs. Kru
ger's claim was filed. Her husband had
two policies in tho Travelers' Company.
Both were for 000, but with accumula
tions they would have amounted to
J15.O0O, On Thursday tho body was ex
humed at the Northwood Cemetery, Oak
Lane, and In the undertaking shop of D.
II Ejchuyler, at Broad and Diamond
streets, several physicians made an au
topsy. Tha body was relnterred yester
day. Dr. William S. Wadsworth, of 207
Bouth tith street, who acted for Mrs.
Kruger at the autopsy, was asked today
what it had, revealed. He refused to dis
cuss the matter at all.
Another physician who attended the au
topsy is Dr. Walter Strong, of 1105 North
Utl street, who said he attended tha
autopsy on invitation of Bernard J,
. O'Connell, attorney for Mrs. Kruger, but
; not as a representative of either the
family or the company.
DOCTOR STRONG'S OPINION.
"Mr, Kruger was a lifelong friend of
jBlne," h said, "and I was naturally
Interested to know the exaet causa of his
death. In wy opinion, the examination
.certainly bore out the statement that he
from a heart oondltion caused by
the shock attendant upon an acaldant.
"Before that aoUdent Sir. Kruger's
Llu&rt was perfectly sound, I am sure of
EVENING
that Ho had obtained Insurance pollcle
from other companies without difficulty
After the accident he was refused a pol
icy by one company to which he applied
because of his heart condition,
"I do not believe the Travelers' Com
pany will resort to litigation in this
matter My understanding Is that they
merely required hn autopsy as a matter
of form. Such a requirement was en
tirely within tho company's rights and a
matter of good business Judgment."
Bernard J, O'Connell. attorney for Mrs.
Kruger, said today that he had not been
notified by the Travelers' Company of Its
Intention to contest the payment of the
policy. He would not discuss the state
ments made by the company officials.
After reviewing the circumstances attend
ing Mr. Kruger's death, he said!
' There seems to be but one side to the
matter, and I do not think the Insurance
company will contest the case. Policies
on Sir. Kruger's life Issued by other com
panies have already been paid. When the
Travelers' Company refuses payment
will be tlmo enough to dlsousa that pos
sibility." Th T.nml Tllla and Trust Company,
executors for the Kruger estate, would
take no part In tho Insurance controversy,
according to Claude A. Simpler, trust of- (
fleer. Tho policies were payable to Mrs. .
. t. -....! I.. ... M.1 11.. .1. t.A Mfll. '
lxruger, no vmhiuiicu, iu,u mu, n.c ...
ter wa. not In tho company's hands.
Intimations that Mr. Kruger's estate
was worth considerably less than was nt
first supposed were made today Ills
estate was originally valued at moic than
$100,000 Mr. Simpler refused to discuss
this phase of the matter.
Mrs. Kruger was Miss Elizabeth Kauff
man. As a nurso she attended the first
Mrs Kruger and five years ago Charles
O. Krugcr and Miss Kauffman were mar
ried. Since Mr. Kruger's death Mrs.
Kruger has been living with her parents
at Olney. Before sho moved from tho
Ablngton house n auction was held at
which most of tho contents of the house
wcro sold.

UNMISTAKABLE BETTERMENT
IN TONE OF WHEAT TODAY
Cessation of Sales by Tanners in
Part Responsible.
CHICAGO, Dec. 19. There was unmis
takable betterment In tho tone of the
wheat market and in tho sentiment sur
rounding It toda. The Improvement was
based on a cessation of sales by farmers
generally In tho winter wheat country,
and increasing evidence that American
exporters are to find It more difficult to
fill largo orders. In tho next fow months
than they have experienced thus far.
Another feature of much significance,
and. If continued, of great Importance, Is
tha growth In speculative Interest Thus
far this Increase is confined to tho larger
professional speculators and thoso In po
sition to be cognizant of the export de
partments. It Is conceded that If there
were a popular speculative buying wave,
such as would In ordinary years follow
tho conditions that now exist. It would
make an Important Impression on values.
Spain Is tho latest country that will be
compelled to Import wheat, threshing
results In that country having proved dis
appointing. Futures closed 1VS to I?ic.

Corn was dull speculatively, but showed
a decided Increase In nctivlty In an export

PLAIN, EVERYDAY DOGS
GET PRIZES AT SHOW
Collars for Twenty-five, Sweaters for
Two Nondescript Pets.
Dogs without pedigree were entered
this afternoon In the first annual ahow
of the Common Cog Association.
It was planned to have the Judging In
Washington Square, but the rain pre
vented this and the ahow was held In ft
vacant atoreroom at l Bouth eth street.
The common, ordinary, every day run
of a dog came Into his own before the
Judging was over, and 23 of that variety
are wearing collars probably for the first
time In nit their dogged days. Two have
sweaters. One has a traveling case, but
he probably would much prefer to travel
on nil his four legs, or even three. If It
were necessary,
Jtbse Mnnafleld, 10 jeara old, of 1188
Cnntrell street, gave Beauty a bath Just
before she started for the show. Beauty,
who shows some traces of having a. re
mote ancester who wns a black and tan,
took cold In tho rain. Beauty wheeled so
badly that she annoyed the other dogs.
Harry nrlnger, of 331 Queen street, a
newsboy, heard of the show and found
It hard to find a dog. He managed to
torner one lit an alley nnd led It
triumphantly to the show on the end of a
rope. He said that his mother had a cat
and ho thought the dog would bo a com
panion for It.
Thero were prhes for tho largest dogs,
tho smallest dogs, tho kindest dog, the
dog with the largest bark and oven for
a dog who could take a walk alone with
out getting Into trouble.
