COATES OPERA
HOUSE BURNED

Kansas City, Feb. 1.-Fire late last
night destroyed the Coates opera house
the principal theater of Kansas City.
Walker Whiteside and his campany
were playing Heart and Sword" in
the house, and had just concluded the
evening performance when some OF
the actors discovered that the building
was on fire, the flames enveloping the
whole rear part of the theater in a few
moments.
The company lost wardrobes and
scenery, being obliged to flee from the
dressing rooms. The iremen were
helpless to check the flames, and
directed their chief attention to the
Coates hotel, diagonally across the
street, and 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.
The building was valued at between
$125, 600 and $15O.0O and was insured
~ much less. 1t was one of the old
~ snd best known theaters in the
West. Bernhardt and Coquelin were
to have played "L'Aiglon'' in the the
ater next Monday night. and there was
an extraordinary sale of seats yester-
day, hundreds of people having stood
in line all night to be ready when the
box office opened this morning and the
house being sold OUT in few min

yards in the vicinity were considerably
damaged. The fire was witnessed by
immense crowds of people and it is
said to be the most spectacular one
New York has ever witnessed, lighting
the whole borough.
The panic-stricken occupants of a
number of tenements threatened by the
fire were assisted out by policemen and
firemen. The fire abounded in thrilling
incidents, but only few persons were
injured, none seriously.

CHARLES DUNCAN DEFENDS
THE UNITED MINE WORKERS

Denver, Colo, Feb. 1.-CharleS Dun
can of the United Mine Workers, ap-
peared before the Legislative commit
tee yesterday, and was sworn for the
purpose of making statement con-
cerning his organization. MY atten-
tion," he said, has been called to
statements made by John G. Osgood,
and l consider it my duty, as repre-
sentative of John Mitchell, to refute
them. l do not wish to be understood
as stating that Mr.. Osgood willfully
made any false statements, but would
say he was mistaken.
"The first mistake was in saying that
in the states of Iowa and Illinois the
business of coal mining has been de-
moralized by our organization. A. L..
Sweet of the Vermillion Coal Com
pany of Illinois, G. G. Chapman of
Ohio and West Virginia, Mr.. Garrison
of southern Illinois and Mr.. Robbins of
central Pennsylvania of their own voli-
ton invited the miners to meet with
them to settle the prices for mining
coal to be charged in these states. They
recognized that they We're in man
Ger competitors and wished to settle all
(ssible differences. To-day these rep
f3sentatives OF mine operators and
miners meet in Columbus, Ohio, in the
twelfth annual joint conference.
''Mr. Osgood made it appear that the
operators of those states had been
averse to meeting the miners, but 1
have a statement showing that the
mine operators went into the confer
ence willing and with the expectation
that the conference would settle all
possibilities of disagreement"
Reading from report on the Sheridan,
Illinois, mines, Mr.. Duncan showed Il
raise from 521h cents per ton run of
mine to IS cents per ton run of mine.

King Edward Begins Work.

London. Feb. 1.-Members of King
Edwards suite tell their friends that
his majesty seems overwhelmed by the
sense of the responsibility of kingship.
Whereas formerly he was genial, but
exacting and irritable regarding official
matters, he has become profoundly
grave and exceedingly considerate to
those about him in small as well as in
important matters. He has worked
many hours daily since the queens
death, disposing of two or three weeks
arrears of public business which she
had not been able to attend to.
Society expects that King Edward
will make st. James the most brilliant
court in Europe, hold night drawing
rooms, instead of the somewhat dreary
afternoon functions of the last quarter
of a century, and provide refreshments
instead of leaving the guests to eat
sandwiches in their carriages under the
eyes of the crowd.

ECCLES WILL MANAGE
THE BIG SHELTERS

Salt Lake, Feb. Is. w. Eccles,
traffic manager of the Oregon Short
Line railroad, yesterday received a
telegram announcing his appointment
as traffic manager for the American
Smelling and Refining Company, with
headquarters in New York, effective
February 10Th. He has a contract for
three years, with salary of $4,000
per year.
The name of S. w. Eccles is as famil-
lar to Colorado business men, particu-
larly to shippers, as the names of their
own institutions. His service as a rail-
road man has covered generation or
more, and his experience extends over
the entire range from that of subordi-
nate positions TO general traffic man.
ager of the Oregon Short Line. Mr..
Eccles was for many years general
agent of the Union Pacific, with head
quarters at Denver. His next service
was as general freight and passenger
agent of the Denver & Rio Grande.
Twelve years ago he went to Salt Lake
as the general freight and passenger
agent of the Rio Grande Western, and
for the next four years acted uninter-
ruptedly as such. In 1856, however,
he was induced to return to the en-
ploy of the Union Pacific, with which
he remained until the Short Line was di-
vorced from that system, three years
ago. Since that time he has been gen.
eral traffic manager of the Oregon
Short Line. and has represented his
road in many of the important eOun-
ellis of railway men throughout the
country, his wisdom and foresight be-
ing generally recognized.

The Illinois veins run all the way from
thirty-four inches to eight feet. In the
Danville district, from 1897 to 1900,
the prices first averaged 33la cents per
ton, in the last year 40 cents per ton.
In the Springfield mines the raise was
about the same as Danville. A closely
corresponding advance was secured in
all the thick veins in Illinois.
''Mr. Osgood left the impression that
on account of the workers tyrannical
methods of doing business it had forced
many operators out of the business.
The result would naturally have been,"
said Mr.. Duncan, 1.-THE curtailing of the
production, yet Illinois produced $780,
600 more tons last year than any year
before. Thus, with an improved con-
dition of the mines in all the states, l
do not believe it is necessary for me to
defend Mr.. Mitchell. / will leave the
world to decide whether he is the mon
ster described.
"Mr. Mitchell is not the czar of his
men, but their servant. Every action
is controlled by the rules of the work
ers. He has not and never had the
power to call strike. He is merely
presiding officer. His term of office is
but one year and each time he is elect
ed by vote of the members of the en-
cZar it would be an easy matter to get
rid of him as in that case he could be
acted against by impeachment.
'Mr. Osgood stated that the dues of
the members averaged from three to
five per cent and often ran as high as
ten per cent of the earnings of the
members. He has been misinformed.
The dues averaged 11a per cent of the
net earnings of the men in Illinois.
This paid all the expenses and left
neat little nest egg for a time when
the men might be unable to pay dues"

Location Lines May Cross.

Washington, Feb. 1.-Secretary of the
Interior Hitchcock has reversed the de-
cisl0n of the general land office, which
refused to grant patent to the Hidee
Gold Mining Company for the Harks,
Hidee, Hale and Fay lode mining
claims, embraced in the Denver min
ing district, the patents being refused
because certain portions of the location
lines of those claims had been laid
within or upon other patented lode
claims.
The secretary says that unless the
locator can place the lines within, up
on or across adjoining or Intervening
property of another, he must choose be-
tween the loss of surface and the veins
beneath and the loss of extra lateral
underground portion of the vein.
The exterior lines of a location are
not in themselves property, but are
mere boundaries, or instruments of de-
scription. They do not give right to
all that is embraced within them, but
instead to so much thereof as is public
land and subject to the disposition by
the United States
Unless end lines or portions of them
can be placed upon other patented
claims there will be many tracts of
mining ground lying between Irregular
ly shaped patented claims to which the
mining laws will have no application
The doctrine of the land office de-
cision, which is reversed, would entail
immediate and widespread confusion
and uncertainty of titles to mining
claims, which would be altogether un-
fortunate and without justification.
