BURIAL OF CHRISTIAN
 AMONG DANISH KINGS

Roskilde, Denmark, Feb. 18.-In the magnificent gothic church here this af- ternoon the body of King Christian TX amid the thunder of guns, the sonor- ous tones of the organ and the blare of trumpets was laid to rest with a long line of his predecessors on the Danish throne whose remains repose in the chapel in Roskilde's red stone fane. The coffin lay in the chancel beneath black and gold baIdachin supported by high officers in full dress uniforms. The only decoration on it was in gold en branch tribute from the children of Denmark. Leaning against the altar rails were floral tributes from foreign monarchs and members of the Danish
 royal family.
 The choir was filled with members of the clergy whose quaint black gowns and white ruffs formed striking back ground to the blaze of gold laced un- forms of the diplomatic body occupy ing a corner of the choir. Here MT. O'Brien, the American minister in sim pie evening dress, was a remarkable exception. As MT. O'Brien was per sonalIy representing President Roose- welt the Danish government had given him an attache of honor, M. Scavenius of the foreign office.

The Opponents of the Bill Apparently Ea-
 ger for Amendment Stage
An Indication That There Will Be Little Debate on the Bill in Form in Which it Came From the Senate Com mjttee.

Washington, Feb. 1S.-The senate's program for, the week so far as it has been arranged provides only for final consideration of the pure food bill and the continuance of the discussion of the statehood bill which was begun last Thursday by Senator Dick The vote on the pure food bill will be taken on Wednesday and will be discussed to a considerable extent during Monday and Tuesday. Senator Hepburn has given notice that he will call the bill up on Monday for the purpose of of fering and permitting others to offer amendments. The vote will be taken Wednesday immediately after the close of routine business.
 Senator Dick will continue his speech on Monday in support of the statehood bill. but there is no decision as to who will follow him. Senator Beveridge says that he expects the OpOsition to choose a senator to reply to the Ohio speaker but nc one of that side ap- pears prepared to proceed with a set speech and it now appears probable that the proposed amendments to the bill may be taken up for consideration at an earlier date than has heretofore been expected.
 All interest centers in Senator For dheI PIONislon BlNlnS DOlh leTIllOTieS an opportunity to vote separately on
 the question of joint statehood for New Mexico and Arizona and it is not at all improbable that that point may be quite suddenly reached. The accept ance of the amendment would not have the effect of bringing the discussion of 1 the measure to a close because there are other questions upon which the senate is divided. but it would mater | ially curtail it and in the end insure | the passage of the bill Senator Be-
 veridge expressed confidence that the ! bill will not be amended in any respect ! by the senate. ! A conference report on the urgent deficiency appropriation bill will be reported during the week, but it will
 probably create very little if any dis cussion.

InAHo oEEIcIALs sILENT.

Portland, Feb. 1S.-A special dis patch to the Oregonian from Boise, Idaho, says: "Governor Gooding posi- tively refused to give out any informa- tion respecting the arrest of Charles H. Mover and Charles B. Haywood of Denver" The officer who went from here to make the arrest was Deputy Warden J. C. Mills, Jr, of the state penitentiary. When he left is not known. For weeks the officers have been absolutely non-committal on the subject. They have intimated from time to time that they might have something after a while but they have taken the ground that any intimation of what they were working on might prejudice the interests of the state and and all have been successfully guarded
 Judge Mcfarland, the Pinkerton manager at Denver was here until a week ago and then he disappeared. Others known to be working on case have been absent from Boise for weeks. Captain Swain returned to Boise from Spokane a few days ago and then dis appeared.

"STARTLING"
 DISCLOSURES
In Relation to Indian Ter
 ritOry Frauds
Many Persons Not Previously Hen-
 tiOned Including a High Govern ment Official Said to Be Implicated.

Washington, Feb. IS. - President Roosevelt has taken a personal inter est in the charges of fraud and cor ruption which are said to have occur red in connection with the affairs of the Five Civilized Tribes in the In dian territory. But for his interfer- ence indictments against parties all legged to have been engaged in illegal practice would have been quashed. Now, however, under his orders, the interior department is pushing its in vestigations with increased vigor and it is reliably stated that in the near future d number of new indictments will be reported against not only the several men already indicted, but they vii also include a number of persons whose names have not heretofore been brought into the cases, including a high government official in Washing ton.
 When it became known to the presi- dent that the district attorney for the Indian Territory had been instructed to quash some indictments already found, he immediately sent orders countermanding this proposed action. He was led to this by information re- ceived by him that on March 1, when the tribal relations of the Five Civil ized Tribes cease, certain facts would be put into his possession which would strengthen the hands of the govern ment in it's efforts to bring to trial a number of persons guilty of gross frauds perpetrated against the In dians.
 It is known that Secretary Hitch cock has submitted to the president

The Arrest of the Federation Officials Accomplished with the Greatest Sc. Crecy Which Still Prevails.

Denver, Feb. 1S.-Charles H. Mover. William D. Haywood, president and secretary respectively of the Western Federation of Miners and G. A Petit bone, former member of the executive board of that organization, who were arrested in this city last night on a warrant charging them with compli- city in the murder of former Governor Steunenburg of Idaho, were taken from their cells in the county jail at an early hour this morning by an armed guard of twelve deputy sheriffs, escort ed to the Union Depot and were there placed on board special train that a few minutes later left the station, carrying the entire party, prisoners and armed deputies over the Union Pacific railroad enroute for Boise. Idaho.
 The three men, who were taken out of the city as prisoners by the Idaho authorities, it was learned today, were arrested last night by three different officers after eXtradition papers had been signed by Governor Mcdonald. The papers were delivered to the gov ernor on Thursday last but not a word to that effect was allowed to escape from the executive chamber. In fact. it is believed that no one except the
 
 city was advised that Governor Mc- Donald had in his possession the papers issued in Idaho. Governor Mcdonald signed the papers yesterday afternoon, and short time afterward left the city for Colorado Springs.
 From information received tonight from officials at the county jail. where Mover, Haywood and Pettibone were taken immediately upon their arrest by deputies. it is understood that three deputies were detailed from the office of Sheriff Alexander Nesbitt of Den yer to make the arrests. The men were instructed to preserve the greatest se- crecy as to their mission. The three officials of the federation were appre- hended in different parts of the city and were taken each by a different of ficer to the county jail, where sePar- ate cells were provided.

EVE OF UNCERTAINTY.
The Things Which May Happen in
 Austria Hungary Today.

Budapest, Feb. 1S.-Tomorrow bids fair to become an important day in the strenuous conflict in which the Hungarian people, represented by the parliamentary coalition, is waging against the throne for a recognition of liberty as against the royal preroga- tive. The parliament may be dissolv- ed by the crown by force of arms if necessary; but up to tonight there is no information as to the method that will be employed by the crown to compass this end of the coalition.
 This evening it is equally in the dark with the public. The coalition has no program of action.
 . It is prepared to enter its protest in any way possible and has provided for all contingencies. The last meeting held by the party showed that its spir- it was clearly for resistance. It was declared tonight that the crowns all legged unconstitutional act would be accepted by the Hungarian people Both sides declare that they are in the right and are confident of success.
