King Oscar II Had Endeared Him
self to All the People as an
Intimate, Personal Friend.
Oldest Son Of the Swedish King, os
car Gustave AdoIphe, Succeeds to
the Throne, Taking the Oath
of Allegiance Few Hours
After the Death Of
His Father.

Stockholm. Oscar II, king OF Swe
den, died at 9;10 o'clock Sunday
morning. The death of the venerable
monarch occurred in the royal apart
ment of the palace, where, surrounded
by the members of his family, inclhd
ing the aged Queen Sophia and the
Crown Prince Oscar Gustave, the high
ministers of state, the inevitable end
had been awaited, while outside the
palace great crowds stood with bowed
heads and fearful eyes long after the
announcement came of the death of
their well-loved sovereign. The whole
country Is bowed with grief, for King
Oscar was something more than
ruler of his people and had endeared
himself to them as an intimate and
personal friend, When the flag on
the palace was dipped to half-mast
there was moan of anguish from
the assembled multitude, and many OF
them cried, sour dear old king Is
dead!"
The succession to the throne of
Sweden now passes to Oscar Gustave
Adolphe, Duke of Verland, the eldest
son of the late king At meeting
of the council of state Sunday after
noon the new king took the oath OF
allegiance under the title of Gustave
V, and adopted the motto. with the
people of the fatherland." The
princess then took the oath of alleg
lance and the new monarch accepted
the homage of the state officials,
The last hours of the expiring mon
arch were passed in unconsciousness.
and up to the end he gave no sign of
recognizing those about him. The
queen was grief-stricken because he
could not bid her farewell.

NEW YoRk's BLUE SUNDAY.
Lack of Amusements Not Appreciated
by Residents Of Gotham.

New York.-New York on Sunday
treated its millions of residents and
tens of thousands weekend visitors
to the novelty of thoroughly blue"
Sunday, the first. and probably the
last, in the history of the metropolis.
The aldermen will meet during the
week to modify the ordinances so far
as their authority goes.
Broadway was deserted, except for
those who found nothing better to do
than to walk the streets. Upon the
closed doors of the opera houses. the.
aters. music halls, dancing acade,
mics, skating rinks and penny ar.
cades placards had been posted.
These bluntly announced that the
places had been closed for the day
in accordance with Justice O'Gor-
mans decision. At the theaters even
the box Offices We're closed and the
advance sales for the week interrupt
ed. The blue" Sunday restraint was
applied only to places of amusement.
and some Of the theatrical men de.
clared that from saloon standpoint
the town was unusually wide open.

MAY CLOSE BUTTE MINES.
Little Profit In Operations at the
Present Price of Copper.

Boston.-John Gillie, who has been
experimenting the operations of the
Amalgamated properties, is expected
in New York this week to confer with
the eastern management as to
whether 1t would be advisable to en-
tirely cease operations in the Butte
camp. 1t Is understood that If such
move is finally decided upon, even de.
velopment work, which is now being
carried on at the various properties
and from which Butte Coalition, for
instance. is obtaining all of its pro-
duction at present, will also be aban-
doned. Should complete suspen.
sion Of all operations at the Amalga-
mated properties be ordered, it is
likely that both Butte Coalition and
North Butte would also be included.
1t would be necessary, however, to
maintain a small force of men to con-
tinue pumping. There is little If any
profit for the Butte mines as now
operated under 13h-cent copper
market.

Greatest Disaster in the History OF
Mining in the United States
Occurs in West Virginia.
Men Imprisoned by Tons of Coal,
Rock and Mine Debris In the
Bowels Of the Earth--Three
Men Out Of Entire Force
Make Their Escape.

Monongah, W. Va.-Three charred
bodies lying in the improyised
morgue, four badly. injured men, and
493 men imprisoned by tons of coal
rock and mine debris in the depths
of the hills surrounding this mining
town, with the chances all against a
single one of them being alive, is the
most accurate summary obtainable oi
the results of mine explosion on
Friday, which, in all probability, was
attended by greater loss of life than
any former disaster in the history of
the bituminous coal mining industry
of America.
The explosion occurred shortly
after 10 o'clock. after the full forca
of 800 men had gone to work in tho
two mines affected. These mines are
numbers 6 and of the Consolidated
Coal company, located on opposite
sides of the West Fork of the river
at this place, but merged in their un.
derground workings by heading and
on the surface by great steel tipple
and bridge
The fnding OF the three bodies and
the four dying men is the only re-
ward of the strenuous and uninter.
rupted work on the part of the large
rescuing forces that Immediately set
to work at every possible point.
The three living men, while unable
to give any detailed report of the dis
aster state that Immediately back of
them when they began their frantic
struggle for liberty. there was a large
number of men engaged in a similar
struggle, while still further back in
the workings there was a larger num-
ber, of whom they know nothing.
1t is the opinion of the mine Of
ficials and others familiar with min
ing that these seven men had not
penetrated the mine as far as had the
majority of the day shift when tho
explosion occurred, and that they
headed for and reached the main en-
trance before the heavy cave-in that
now blockades the entrance more
than few hundred feet beyond thu
main opening of mine No. 6.
