DANISH PRINCE DIES
AFTER INHERITING FORTUNE. (By Gable—Press Assn.-Copyright.) (Received March 11, 9.40 a.m) NEW YORK, March 10. An attorney undertook a pleasant task to-day, to inform- Prince Fritz Wilhelm Holm that he had inherited £1,000,000. Upon arriving at the Prince’s Hotel, the lawyer learned that the Prince had died half an hour before from double pneumonia. Born at Copenhagen 49 years ago, the Prince served King Nicholas of Montenegro. Perhaps the outstanding feat of the Prince’s remarkable career was the finding in a remote part of China the famous Destorian monument, erected in A.D. 781 to commemorate the arrival of a Christian missionary in the sixth or seventh century. The Prince held forty decorations, and was a member of thirty-two scientific societies, and the Royal Academies of thirteen kingdoms. Prince Holm never wore an overcoat, an eccentricity which probably induced his fatal illness.
