CHICAGO, Jan. 2S-Several thousand
people collected on the lake front yester-
day, many of them men out Ct work look
ing for job, to see ground broken for the
Worlds fair. The building to be erected
is one for the use of the construction bu-

that only ten men were needed at this

LONDON, Jan. 2s.-The kaiser passed an
unhappy birthday yesterday, notwith-
standing the brilliant court celebration.
He mas the domestic virtues of his father
and grandfather, and is never so happy as
when surrounded by his little boys, the
eldest, heir to the throne, now being near
ly 9years OF age. He romps and plays
with them, and takes deep interest in
their training. Yesterday Prince William
was abed, confined by a severe cold The
kaiser had been driving the young prince
around with him on his surprise visits to
the various garrisons, and while the hoy
has been edited in a military way, he is
in bad way physically, and the kaiser
spent good part of the day at the little
fellows bedside

let to tell the story of the disaster; Not
more than fifty of the men were killed by
the explosion The Others were overcome
by the after-damp. and while some of the
podles are horribly torn, burned. and
mutllated, others were found with their
teeth ciinched on the iron rail of the pit
road, Others with faces plunged into the
water, ana not a few upon their knees as
II engaged in prayer. Fire Boss Sheath
was identified by his gum boots. His body
was scattered about in dozen places His
head was torn from his shoulders. Both
legs were torn off, and that part of his
body recovered was roasted and biackened.
His left hand, clutching his lamp, was
found over 100 feet from the trunk of his
hoiy.
Defective Lamp the Cause.
The explosion is said to have been
caused by a miner with a defective lamp
going into an abandoned chamber where
the gas had gathered. In an instant the
entire shaft was mass of fame and the
walls OF the chamber and shafts where the
men were at work fell in every direction,
crushing many of the miners beneath
them. Everybody in the pit was killed.
The position OF their bodies told the story
of their end. The force of the explosion
was felt for miles around
The List of Killed Growing

were killed by the explosion. At 10 O'Clock
last evening word was received that III

Reply of the Attorney General to the
Canadian Application.
WASHINGTON CITY, Jan. 2S-The attor-
ney general yesterday made his reply be-
fore the supreme court to the application
of the Canadian government for a writ of
prohibition in the case of the sealer w. p.
Sayward, libelled by the Alaska district
court for catching seals forty-nine miles
from the coast. The reply argues that the
supreme court has no power in the case.
because the Alaska district court is not a
United States court The attorney gen
eral then contends that conceding all the
facts averred, the supre me court can not
take cogniZance of the case because it de-
ponds on the extent of the dominion of the
United States in Behrine sea
Held To Be Political Question.
This, he maintained, is a political ques-
ton to be decided by the political depart
ment of the government-the executive
and congress; both of which have decided
against petitioners contention, and this
decision, he held, must be conclusive upon
the judiciary. No consideration whatever,
the attorney general said, had been given
in his answer to the question of interna-
tional law, which is now and has been for
the past six years, the subject of diplo-
matte correspondence between Great
Britain and the United States with refer
ence to the right of this country to assert
a territorial jurisdiction in Behring sea to
the extent of projecting is seal fisheries
beyond the three mile limit ordinarily
fixed as the boundary OF territorial juris-
dictiOn of countries bordering on the sea.
The Plaintiff Nakes Reply.
Mr.. Carlisle, replying to the attorney
generals contention that the supreme
court has 70 power to issue writ of pro-
hibition to the Alaskan court, because it
is not district court of the United States,
argued that when congress created the ju-
dicial district of Alaska and established a
district court there with powers similar to
district courts of the United States, it
established a United States court with
all the name implies. Otherwise

Of the Mammoth Coke works mine by a

Reason for Their Earnestnass

LONDON, Jan. 2s.-The evident earnest
ness of the semi-official Berlin press to de-
ny that the kaiser has any faint of cancer
is prompted by the fact that cancer, as an
incurable disease, would, under the con-
stitution, disable the kaiser from reign
ing Hence the refusal up to the last mo-
ment to admit that the late Emperor
Frederick had cancer

No Cremation in Denmark.

LONDON, Jan. 2S-The Danish parliament
has decided that, for the present at least,
nobody shall be cremated in that country.
The reason is that proper safeguards have

same objection has been urged in England
since the cremation of the body of the
