London, July Ia.--Lord Kitchener

reception in the metropolis was one of

were there in its tens of thousands to see
the man Of the hour.
From the moment he set foot i'm London
to the time Of his disappearance beneath

searching party during the night
At o'clock this morning the charred
and mutilated bodies of fifteen victims
were brought to the Westmont pit mouth
and taken to the morgue. The bodies were
found in the upper end of No. right
heading, where the explosion occurred
The bodies were all lying far in from
the point of explosion and could not be
reached until the heading had been entirely
cleared Of the noxious gases. Three deaths
occurred during the night at Cambria hos
pital. These were among the last living
victims who were brought out of the mine
yesterday afternoon in an unconscious con.
dition.
Another of these is in a precarious con-
dition. 1t was learned at the pit mouth
today from mine officials that every head
ing and chamber, both to the right and
left of the main Klondike heading were
penetrated during the night and that not
trace of any dead or living victims were
found. 1t is admitted that some might have
crawled into obscure workings in their
fight from the after damp which followed
the explosion and there succumbed to the
fatal gas.

CAPTAIN A. D. EMERSON

Mining Properties in the Early
Days.

Captain A. l.. Emerson of Colorado
Springs, formerly one of the wel-known
mining men of Butte, arrived in the city
today and is renewing acquaintance with
the early settlers of the camp.
More than 20 years ago the captain, who
got his title at sea, was one of the men
who commenced the development of some
of Butte's well known mines. With Judge
A. J. Davis, in 1881, he developed the
Wabash mine and until the fall in the
price of silver helped to make it one of the
good paying propositions of this district.
The property is one of the extreme
northern mines of the Butte district and
lies about mile north of the Alice. It
has big oo-foot lode but has never been
examined to any considerable depth.
Captain Emerson is giant in statue
and all day today he has been busy meet.

kindly. AS this is one of his few visits
in the last IS years, he finds much to talk
about.
He will remain for few days looking
after some mining interests he still retains
in and around Butte.

out their own salvation without help from
any portion of the empire.
There is now general understanding
among the colonial representatives that

W00LBEATER WILL SPURIOUS
Colbert Jury Returns Verdict Against Propo-
nents--Finds That Signature Affixed to
Document Is Not CoIbert's.

Historic has become the Colbert will
contest, and brief resume OF the case
will not be amiss. Charles Colbert a
shrcwd and Industrious German, who had
dcne well in life to the tune Of about $50.
900, died on February Ia, 1901, in his
cabin In this city. He had no known rel
ativcs.
Who would get his estate was question
of considerable interest. About 10 DAYS
after his death, John Woolbeater offered
for probate an instrument alleged to be
the last will and testament of the de-
ceased. That paper gave Colbert's prop
erty 10 Attorney w. |. Lippincott and
Woolbeater, and it was the will that was
contested and knocked out by the YER
dict this morning.
After the filing of this paper, the state
Of Montana entered contest agai,t its
admission to probate, on the theory that il
had been forged. The state claimed the
property of the dead man on the ground
that he died without heirs and without
making a will.
Two new contestants came into the case
at once IN the persons of Fred w.
Scheuer and Mrs. Lillian Fluke. They
pet up In their peadings that Colbert had
made will in 1896, giving them the prop
erty, and they asked the court to estal-
lish and probate their will, which was
lost, and to declare them the inheritors.
The trial of the case opened in Judge
Clancy's court on June 20, last, and went
to the jury at o'clock last night, after
q hearing that lasted nearly three weeks.
Day before yesterday the Fluke-S Scbeuer
contestants were nonesuited by the court.
and the jury were not allowed to consider
their evidence.
