BORROWED ON INSURANCE Widow Probably Will Receive Only $30,000 on Policies; Will to Be Filed Soon. The will of Edward I. Preetorius, president of the German-American Press Association and founder of the St. -Louis Times, who killed htmsebf last Monday, is expected to be filed by his widow within a day or two. The inventory of his estate, which will be filed after the will is record- ed for probate, is expected to show, ‘as was generally known among his business associates, that he was “broke.” Business reverses, which became acute in the past year, are known to have preyed upon his mind and are believed to have been the real cause of his sui- cide. G. A. Buder, vice president of the German-American Press Association and a close business associate of Preetorius, today told a Post-Dispatch reporter that he understood that Preetorius had lost heavily when the Frisco Railroad went into receivership thrée years ago. He understood that Preetorius’ will was drawn within the yast year, and that it was in the widow’s possession. Borrowed on Pelicies, Preetorius, it was learned, had $658,000 insurance on his life. Agents who handled his policies have figured that about $30,000 will go to his widow. These policies had been taken out in a number of companies. Preetorius, in the last year or so, had borrowed money on them almost to the limit of their bor- rowing value. policy on Preetorius’ life, carried in the Northwestern Mutual, and taken out two years ago, but the premiums on this were paid by the German-Ameri- can Press Association, and the money will go to that corporation. Qn a few policies which he had taken out years ago, Preetorius had finished paying the premiums, so that they con- stituted paid-up policies. But he had borrowed on these almost as much as hé Had paid in. One of his policies was for $25,000 in the Germania Lifc, taken out five years ago, and it was learned that he had borrowed on this policy to the limit. $10,000 Policy Lapsed. Another policy, for $10,000, in the Mas- eachusetts Mutual, which he had car- ried for nine years, had been allowed to 4 lapse for non-payment of premiums. More than a year ago Preetorius sought to have the policy reinstated by pay- ing up back premiums. He failed to pass a physical test and the policy was not reinstated. He had borrowed the cash value of this policy. Some of the money was borrowed on his insurance policies about the time bonds of the German-American Press Association which were owned by Rich- ard C. Kerens, former Ambassador to Austria-Hungary, who was the heaviest bondholder of the corporation publish- ing the Westliche Post and the St. Louis Times, were sold by Kerens. Borrowed $10,000 on Stock. At that time he also borrowed $10,000 from the Commonwealth Trust Co., in which he was a ilirector, putting up stock of the German-American Press Association as collateral. This loan was galled shortly after Deniel Taylor be- came president of the Guardimn Trust So., svccessor to the Commonwealth Trust Co. Buder was one of those in the taking over of a portion of Kerens’ bonds, and thus entered the publishing corporation as it® vice president. In financial circles it was said that Preetorius was not known to- have been interested in any investments or business interests outside of his news- papers. Preetorius had been a director in the Commonwealth Trust Co., but his stock holdings there were small. It was said he attended ‘directors’ meetings but never took any voice in matters per- taining to the bank’s business. After the automobile accident, a year ago, in which he was severely injured, it was said he remained at directors’ meetings only about ten minutes and would ask to be excused. Preetorius, as a director of the bank, had signed, with other directors, notes as security for a $200,000 loan, dn which the collateral had been questioned. Pree- torius’ share of the note was for $10,000 and the bank recently began taking steps to collect the loan from its di- rectors, default having been made by the borrower. Funeral Held From Home , The funeral of Preetorius was held yesterday from the family residence, 4634 West Pine boulevard, to Bellefontaine Cemetery. Former Congressman Rich- ard Bartholdt spoke and the funeral sermon was preached by the Rev. Z. | B. T. Phillips of St. Peter’s Protesgant Episcopal Church.

Diefenbach’s car. struck the Halwe machine on the side. “AETRESS, LOSE “US. PASSPORT Secretary Lansing Acts Upon Ac- cusation That She Secretly Carried German Dispatches. COMPLAINT BY BRITAIN She Is Said to Have Been Bearer of Communications Between Berlin and Rome. WASHINGTON, Nov. 4.—The Stats Department has declined to renew an American passport for.
