"Death
On May 18, 1928, Haywood died in a Moscow hospital from a stroke brought on by alcoholism and diabetes.[41][42] Half of his ashes were buried in the Kremlin wall; an urn containing the other half of his ashes was sent to Chicago and buried near the Haymarket Martyrs' Monument.[6]"

which is written by a UM-KC professor, Doug Linder, who got it from who-knows-where.
