Chicago, Jan. THE coroner s
inquest over the remains of the vic
tins of the Irouuois theatre disaster
began in the city council chamber
today. The coroner's official list of
dead prepared for use at the inquest
contains 500 names. The prepare.
tions are complete for the most
searching inquiry into the causes of
the greatest calamity Chicago has
ever known. 1t is estimated that it
will require at least six days for the
jury to hear the testimony of the
two hundred or more witnesses.
Great stress is laid by the coro-
ner upon developments during the in
quest with relation to the stage ven
tilator and air shafts. the proper
working of which. it is alleged,
would have saved hundreds from
death. In this connection the arrest
today of VIM. J. Maher and George
Nagel who were employed by a sub
contractor of the Fuller construction
company. is considered most impor-
tant by the coroner. According to
the police, Maher said today that
he had charge OF the metal construc-
ton of the ventilator which was to
be operated by a lever from the
stage so that it could be drawn up
at a moments notice. but according
to Maher the lever was never at
police, also says he went to the the
atre the day after the fire but could
find no trace of the lever. He saw
several temporary scantlings still
nailed to the wall in the way he
fixed them when his part of the con-
struction work of the theatre was
finished. The police say the state.
ments of the two men show that the
safety vents for fire were never op-
Grated even experimentally, and ev
cry audience that ever sat in the
Iroquois has been in imminent dan
ger of roasting to death wholesale
whenever a fire broke out on the
stage. Both men say the skylights
were expected to be put in proper
working order when the theatre was
placed in the hands of the owners.
The first witness examined today
was John G. Calvin, painting con
tractor. He testified that he was in
the vestibule of the theatre the af-
ternoon of the fire purchasing tick
cts for the evening performance
when the outside entrance doors
were blown open as though by a
blast of hot air. Looking in he saw
people fiercely striving to open the
west door. that being nearest. The
door was locked on the inside and

CRUISERS
ARE CALLED
Russian Vessels in Red Sea Are
Not to Arrest Any More
Merchantmen.
Steamers Stopped Pending Re.
ceipt of Orders Will Be
Set at Libery.

st. Petersburg, July 25.-The Asso-
c1ated Press is able to announce that
Russia has informally notified Great
Britain that orders have been issued
to the Russian cruisers in the Red
sea not to arrest any more merchant
men and it has been agreed between
the two powers that if, pending the
receipt of these orders by the captains
of the. ST. Petersburg and the Smol-
ensk, any other ships should be stop
ped and held as prizes these acts shall
be regarded as not having taken place
and the ships concerned at once re-
leased.
While not admitting the Illegally
of the Russian action in converting
vessels of the volunteer fleet into war
ships after they had reached the Red
sea, it is probable, in view of the fact
that neutral ships did not receive pre-
vious notice, that Russia, in order to
remove the shadow of a cloud upon
their right to fly the war flag, will
formally notify the powers of their
conversion into Warships, thus putting
all neutrals upon their guard.
In the meantime all the ships seized
will be released unless the captains
refuse to show their manifests, in
which event the procedure in the case
OF the Malacca probably will be fol-
lowed.

IN The HANDS OF RUSSIANS
STEAMER scANDIA OF THE HAM.
BURG-AMERIcAN LINE is
CAPTURED.

suez, July 25.-The Hamburg Amer

destination is not known.
The Scandia halls from Hamburg
and passed Gibraltar July 5 on her
way to China
Hamburg, July 25-The officials of
the Hamburg-American line declare
that the seizure of the steamer Scan
dia by the Russians is inexplicable, as
her manifests show that she did not
carry any kind of war material for
Japan.
The company has asked the foreign
Office to take up the matter and secure
an explanation
The Scandia had on board a con-
signment of ammunition, portion Of
which, it is asserted, was to have been
landed at Singapore for transporta-
tion to the German government sta
tions in the South sea- The other pOr-
tion was billed to Shanghai for the
Chinese government.
Port Said, July 25.-The Peninsular

THE MUSIC
 SECTION

The music section of the Monday club held its meeting yesterday in the Kindergarten room of the public school with Mrs. H. D. Ross as leader. The subject for the day was Beethoven and the first number on the program was Sonata Pathetique by that great composer rendered by Mrs. W. A. Cline on the piano.
 Faithful Johnnie" also by Beetho- ven, was sung by Mrs. Leroy Ander- son accompanied on the piano by Mrs. Cline, and a violin obligato being played by A. B. Nader.
 The usual question box was then disposed of. This consists of box in which are placed a number of slips of paper by the members, the slips con- tanning questions pertaining to Bee thoven, and is found to be not only interesting but instructive.
 The next number was vocal solo entitled 70 Du" rendered by Mrs. N. Levy.
 The closing numberI was Andante from the Ninth Symphony by Miss Maninx on the piano.

Daring and Unsuccessful Attempt Baked in Wycming-BuffalO Bill Volunteers to Take the Trail

Cody, Wyoming, Nov. 1.-The First National bank of Cody was held up this afternoon by two bandits and Cashier Middaugh was killed. The robbers rode into town, went straight to the bank and dismounted. One entered the bank and the other held the horses. Cashier Middaugh refused the robbers demand for the money and was instantly shot and killed. The shooting drew a crowd but the bandits mounted their horses and es- caped without getting any money. A large posse is in pursuit.
 Later it deveolped there were four of the bandits. They were pursued by cowboys and citizens of Cody. A running fight took place, but the bandits escaped to Rattle Snake mountains where tonight they are pur- sued by half dozen posses. 4 battle is imminent. It is believed the ban dits came from the "Hole in the Wall" country. Buffalo Bill, who is en route from Omaha in a special car with a party of titled EngIishmen and two of his Sioux Indian scouts, has tele- grahed orders for horses to be waiting his party at the depot.
