Roy TRIES ROLE OF KIDNAPER.

A dispatch from Chicago last night says:

son would be returned. Death would fol-

spot and found Charles Cederblade, aged fiji
teen years. One of the detectives carried
a bag with an old tin cup which represented
the coin.
"W here Is my son?' he said in the voice
of a man broken with grief and anxiety.
The boy did not answer for a moment.
For Gods sake show me my son!' plead
ed the detective.
Then the figure answered: IF you've got
the money, give 1t to me quick. Two men
have your son in Swans saloon. at Belmont

But Detective Thompson refused to give
up the coin bag containing the tin cup and
began to parley with the young man. In
about half an hour the party went to
Swans saloon and waited there, the boy

KANSAS CITY THEATER BURNS.
Coates Opera House Takes Fire Just
After Performance.

Fire last night destroyed the Coates
Opera House, the principal theater of Kan
sas City. Walker Whiteside and his COM
pany were playing Heart and Sword" in
the house. and had just concluded the
evening performance when some of the ac-
tors discovered that the building was afire,
the flames enveloping the whole rear part of
the theater in a few moments. The COM
pany lost their wardrobes and scenery, be-
ing obliged to flee from their dressing
rooms.
The firemen were helpless to check the
flames, and directed their chief attention
to the Coates Hotel, diagonally across
the street, the largest hotel in the city.
Wind blew great showers of cinders upon
the hotel. The guests were notified of
their danger and some left the house. but
it was not damaged
At 1915 the theater block was a total
wreck but still blazing. No one was in
jured.
The audience had left the theater only
five minutes before the fire was discover
ed. The building was valued at between
$125,0O0 and $4,000, and was insured for
much less. 1t was one of the Oldest and
best-known theaters in the west.
Bernhard and Coquelin were to have
played "L'Aiglon' in the theater next
Monday night, and there was an extraor-
binary sale of seats yesterday, hundreds of
people having stood in line all night to be
ready when the box Office opened in the
morning, and the house being sold out in
q few minutes"

NO LONDON PAPERS TOMORROW.
They Will Suspend in Honor of the
Dead Queen.

LONDON, February 1.-The managers of
the London afternoon papers have decided
unanimously to suspend publication, so
that those who are not able to witness the
funeral scenes will have to wait until Sun
day for descriptions. Such a suspension,
except on Good Friday, is almost without
precedent. 1t will serve to emphasize the
solemnity of a great occasion.
The Daily Mail this morning recalls that
on the occasion Of the funeral of Queen
Elizabeth no foreigner followed her bier
with the exception of the French ambas-
sador, and it adds that now all Europe
will accompany the bier of the mother OF
sovereigns.
The naval display will be less striking
than on the occasion of the diamond
jubilee. 1t had been expected that more
foreign men-of-war would be present
Moreover, several vessels of the channel
squadron are now detained for repairs at
their base ports. Yet the spectacle will
be extremely majestic. The Spanish war
ship Emperador Carlos V. which was or
dered to Portsmouth, has been obliged to
return to Ferroll, her engines being dis
abled
The czarewitch and one or two other
distinguished persons who are now cross
ing the channel to England Will complete
the list of foreign guests.
Tomorrow will be day of complete ma
tional mourning, not only in London, but
throughout the provinces and the colo
MES. There will be general closing or
shops and suspension of business as we'll
as the holding of memorial services. The
directors of the Northeastern railway sys-
tenn of England have ordered that at $50
pm. tomorrow, the hour appointed for
the funeral at Windsor, all trains shall
be brought to a standstill, and every SER
want of the company shall remain notion
less for ten minutes.
The king has ordered that the same men
who will carry the coffin tomorrow In the
procession shall bear it to the mausoleum
at Frogmore on Monday.

IL HUNG CHANG is DEAD
The Famous Statesman Died Sur.
rounded BY Wife and Children.


Pekin, Nov. 7.-Li Hung Chang died
at IL o'clock this morning.
The wife OF Earl Ii and his two sons
and daughter were with him when the
end came.
The end was quiet. His vitality slow
ly ebbed. For time he lost conscious.
ness, but he showed great tenacity,
rallied at midnight, became semi-con.
scious, partook of nourishment and ap.
peared to recognize his relatives. The
foreign doctors left him early Wednes-
day, saying that nothing more could
be done. His personal physician, DR..
Watt, then took charge. The contro-
versy between the foreign and Chinese
doctors had no effect on the patient,
because he was already beyond hope
of recovery.
The flames of the procession OF pa
per effigies. chairs and horses burned
in the courtyard OF the yamen to car
ry his spirit to heaven, told the crowd
of officials who were gathered in the
narrow street outside the yamen that
the end had come. Soon afterward
procession appeared bearing a costly
coffin Of teakwood, beautifully lac
quered. This coffin Lii Hung Chang
took on his trip around the world, and
he brought it from Canton when he
came to Pekln to settle the Boxer"
troubles Since that time it had been
kept in a temple here.
