KING OSCAR PRO-BRITISH.
DECLARATION OF HIS sYMPATHIEs BY THE
RULER OF SWEDEN AND NORWAY.

NNO-1@~N~
London, May 2-"I entirely on the British
side in this war in South Africa" said the King
of Sweden and Norway. a visit to this
country in an interview with Theodore Andrea
Cook who has just resigned the editorship of
THE St James's Gazette" to-day. You may
make it quite clear that l have sympathy
whatever with the Beers, and l will tell you
why find it difficult to understand either the
principles of religion which is apparently
monopoly of the burghers of the two States or
of the political manifestations of government
which seems TO have refused most Of the re-
forms suggested by the British, and which
closed its negotiations by invading British ter
ritory In my opinion, the English speaking
races are the exact opposite OF the Beers, be-
cause they are among the best coloni2ers Of the
world when savage and uncivilized territories
have TO be reclaimed. No greater proof of this
could have been given than the splendid out
burst of loyalty at home and the heroism In the
field which every British colony has so unani-
mously displayed. That is the good which has
come TO Great Britain out of the evil which
any war brings in its train, and that will be her
connensa ton for the many disappointments she
has suffered hitherto. You may make 1t quite
clear that l have no sympathy Whatever with
the Beers, and that | VIII give no support TO
the attempts they are making to secure the
countenance or cooperation of other countries
Mr. Cook regarding this declaration by King
Oscar writes:
His Majesty welcomed me as a representative
of The Associated Press, with great Kindness,
alone in his apartments at the Swedish Nor
wegian Legation. Il is clear the King does not
wish the Scandinavians in the United States
10 be in any doubt about the feelings of the mon
arch whom they or their parents once owed
Allegiance to. and whose opinions they will still
accept with Difference and respect in a question
| now agitating the civilized world. The i'm
portance of this extremely candid and forcible
declaration will be thoroughly appreciated by
| all who remember the King. Twice he has been
suggested as arbitrator in delicate matters OF In
| ternational dispute in which the United States
was concerned.

there is a narrow strip for bicyclists to ride
between the curb and the elevated road pillars.
He had passed One hundred and -eighteenth-st
when he saw bicyclst riding north at about
One hundred d-and-seventeenth-st. The men
going north seemed to Molloy at about the
same time
In trying TO turn out for each other the men
became confused and came into collision. They
were picked up unconscious and laid the
sidewalk. DR.. Muller bundled both men into
an ambulance and hurried them to the Harlem
Hospital The wheels were shattered. Molloy
returned to consciousness soon afterward and
told his name and his story. Molloys left eye
was completely closed and his left leg was badly
bruised He Is supposed to have been thrown
against the curb.
The other man remained unconscious and it
was found that he had a compound fracture of
the skull. He did not regain consciousness and
died at o'clock His name was afterward
found to be Morris Mars. He nineteen
years old and lived at No 1888 Th!rd-ave. He
is supposed TO have received his fractured skull
from being thrown against the elevated pillar.
Molloy who had started for home, was after
ward taken to the East One-hundred- and

vestigation Of the case be made. Detective

GATES WILL NOT ANSWER.
ASKS THAT THE ORDER FOR HIS EN-
ANIMATION BE VACATED.
HE MAY NOT RESIGN GUARDIANSHIP AND
WILL NOT RETURN HOME UNTIL
AFTER MONDAYS MEETING.

The formation of the American Steel and Wire
Company of which John ". Gates is the president.
was under discussion in the Supreme Court yes
terday. when Mr. Gates, through his attorneys,
Seward Guthrie & Steele. applied to Justice Fitz-
gerald for the vacation of an order issued by Jus
tice Truax April %, directing the examination
before trial of their client in a suit brought John
H Parks, of Duxbury Mass, against him for an
accounting of the profits made by the establish
ment of the trust. Mr.. Gates alleges that his ex-
animation will not supply the information required
by the plaintiff and that ii is asked for the purpose
of cross-examining him, which is permitted be-
fore the trial of action.
Mr.. Parks alleges in his complaint that the
American Steel and Wire Company first con-
templated in September 1897, by Gates and Judge
Elbert H. Gary, then of Chicago, but a resi-
dent of New-York on the one side and the plain
tiff and Gerrt H. Ten Brock and three others on
the other. The corporation to purchase
tain wire rod, barbed wire and wire nail manu-
factories in the United States. and all profits were
to be divided into equal shares. of which
was to go to Gates and Gary, and the other TO the
plaintiff and his associates
The plaintiff says the corporation was duly estab-
dollars, but never accounted for any part of the
sum to either the plaintiff or his associates. but
demands Judgment for his share Of the profits
tiors, and says the agree entered into with
Parks and Ten Brock was never carried out. He
incorporated under the laws of Illinois in 1898 He
was not party to the agreement under which
the information asked for by Parks can be obtained
from the officers of the corporation or from Judge
Gary. who lives here
that it would be practically useless to examine the
officials of the company, they are not con-
versant with the details Of the formation of the
trust. Justice Fitzgerald took the papers and re-
served his decision.
John w. Gates it was learned yesterday: will not
return to his home, in Chicago until after next next
Monday. when the directors of the American Steel @
and Wire Company are to meet in this city.
Whether Mr.. Gates will at that meeting re-
sign his office of chairman of the Board cannot be
definitely ascertained, but such intimations as his
friends have within the last day or two permitted
themselves to make would seem to justify the pre-
dction tha: Mr. Gates will offer his resignation
for the present, although there is ground for the
belief that had not his combatveness been so
strongly reused by the bringing of legal proceed
ings against him by George A. Lamb first as at
self the complainant, Mr.. Gates would on Monday
have lain down the chairmanship and proceeded 10
carry out plans for vacation "trip abroad.
