SETTLED IN FULL
Bank Which Failed A Dozen Years Ago Has Paid Depos-
 itOrS 10S 3.4 Per Cent.

Nashua, \. H., Dec 19.-One of the most successful liquidations of clos ed bank in financial records has just been completed by w. A.

NEW MINISTER
Chinese Official Started for This Country Today-Leaves
 Shanghai Next Month.
GREETING TO THE U. s.

Pekin, Dec 19.-Wu Ting Fang, who has been reappointed to the post of Chinese minister to the United States in succession to Sir Chentung Liang-Cheng, left Pekin to-day on his way to Washington. He will sail | from Shanghai in January. He will take with him from Shanghai a large number of young Chinese who are going to study in the United States.
 In view of the present status of the relations between China and the United States, the throne, it is un- derstood, has entrusted Wu Ting Fang with message of unusual warmth to President Roosevelt. The indemnity proposal, and especially the speech delivered by Secretary Taft at Shanghai, have served to draw Chinese attention to the United States, and as result of the efforts of the native press the position of the United otates in the mat ter of the far east is better | uhuel oloou Io-udy III Cnlna than ever before. It is believed in some quart CTS that China will show her appre- ciation in a practical way by giving preference to American commerce.
 The news of the departure of the battleship squadron for the Pacific has been cabled to Pekin and has aroused much curious interest among enlightened Chinamen, who are read ing foreign newspapers with great care in an effort to discover a clue to the meaning of the trip.
 The government is anxious for in formation regarding the manner in which the United States will act in the matter of the reduction of the Boxer indemnity. It hopes for some thing tangible. as it is unable to raise the money which it sorely needs for administrative purposes. especially in the field of mines and railroads. Wu Ting Fang is fully empowered to act in the matter of the indemnity pay ments and he hopes to reach Wash ngtOn before congress takes any ac- ton.

WANTED THE GOLD
Man Captured While Endeavor. ing 10 Break Into Car
 Containing s6o,ooo.

Philadelphia, Dec Exchanged with making daring attempt to TOD a car on the Buffalo express contain ing gold bullion, while the train was standing in the Reading terminal last night, William A. Hewett, who gave his address as 325 West Eff teentn street, New York, was to-day held in $5,. bail for further hear ing. The train had been made up and was scheduled to leave at $40 D. m, via the Reading railroad and the Lehigh Valley. One of the ex- press cars contained $60,00O in gold bullion which was being shipped by the government to Buffalo.
 A yardman while at work on a track adjoining the one on which the express train stood, heard grating noise, and on investigation found Hewett under the bullion car at work with a saw on gas pipe. The yardman gave the alarm and HeWett was pursued and captured.
 About the time. Hewett was discov- cred, the lights in the car went out and an examination showed that the gas pipe had been punctured. At the hearing to-day the police exhibited the saw left behind by Hewett in his flight and section of the gas pipe. The police say they are working on the theory that Hewett probably ex- pected to enter the car after ne had extinguished the lights and loot it unobserved.
 Hewett is believed to have been as- sisted by accomplices and the police are looking for two other men. He is said to have been employed about the station loading express cars and was familiar with the practice of the express company in shipping bullion.

CONDUCTED BY POPE
Plus X Took Personal Charge Al The Admission of The
 New Cardinals Today.

Rome, Dec 19.-The pope this morning personally conducted the ceremony of public consistory, which was attended by thousands of in- vited persons, especially foreigners. including many Americans.
 Thousands of tickets had been dis tributed for. this ceremony and dense crowd packed the corridors, hall and tribune and reached almost to the foot of the throne itself, while the piazza of St Peters was a nov ing mass of women in black with bare heads, men in dress clothes, priests, monks, soldiers, carblneefs' nuns, spectators and cardinals, some on foot, others in cabs, many in more or less gorgeous private carriages, all with eyes fixed on the great bronzed doors, which were the DOT tals to the promised spectacle.
 Those extraneous to the ceremony gathered in special places inside the vatican, while the cardinals, prelates and "court" personages assembled Tn another hall to await the pontiff.
 At one end of the Sala Regis stood the papal throne, fianked by the car dinals stalls, and at the right were places for the bishops; opposite were special tribunes for the aristocracy and diplomatic body and underneath standing room for those ticket hold CTS fortunate enough to get a place.
 The procession was headed by the Swiss guards, followed by many per sonages. The pope was dressed ln complete pontifical robes, mitre ln hand. and with raised hand in the familiar position he gave blessing as he went. Following the holy father came a long tram of personages, to- eether with the Sistine choir, who sang as the procession proceeded, un- der the direction of their head, AoDe Perosi. The pope mounted the throne amidst profound silence, the cardinals going to their stalls, and the others taking the positions pre- pared for them. The new cardinals were then introduced, and while they were kneeling, one by one, at the pontiff's feet, and he repeated the formula Accipe Galerum Ru- brum, a master of ceremonies held a red hat over their heads. They then, separately, after the papal embrace, went to each of the cardinals and received fraternal salute. The ceremony over, Plus X rose and after bestowing the apostolic blessing, slowly withdrew, the procession re- forming as an escort. ..N
 After having returned thanks be- fore the altar of the Sistine chapel the new cardinals joined the others fin the hall, of the consistory, where Plus X held short supplementary consistory. ..

KING BURIED.
Thousands of Subjects Stood Bare-
 headed as Procession Passed.

Stockholm, Dec. 19.-The body of the late King Oscar of Sweden, who died December &, was inferred at noon to-day in the Riddarholm church, the burial place of Swedish kings and heroes with ceremony the simple impressiveness of which was accentuated by the widespread evidences of popular sorrow. Along the snow covered route of the fun eral procession scores of thousands of people stood bareheaded in the biting cold during the passage of the hearse and the mourners. Every bell in the city tolled throughout the progress of the funeral. Embems of mourn buildings facing the streets down which the funeral cortege passed and both sides of the route of march were hedged with lines of troops.
 Immediately following the hearse walked Gustave, the new king of Sweden, the king of Denmark, and the princes of the Swedish royal house. These mourners were follow ed by the special foreign embassies, representing states in all parts of the world. The queen of Spain and the queen of Denmark drove to the church. The dowager queen of Sweden, widow of King Oscar, was prevented by illness from attending the funeral
 The archbishop of Stockholm of 1 fciated at the ceremony. The con- clusion of the service was marked by a salute of 42 guns and volley firing | by infantry.

BONAPARTE BOOM
Chicago, Washington and Bos. ton lnterested-New York
 May Be Heard From Soon.

Chicago; Dec. 19.-The Tribune to- day says:
 An underground movement which had as it's object the election of At torney General Charles J. Bonaparte to the presidency of the United States is in progress. It has come up for breath in Chicago, Washington and Boston, and may be looked to ap- pear briefly in New York. and Indian apolis. s-'-s '7
 So far as is known it is the only underground campaign which is be- ing conducted and at present there is no evidence to indicate that MT Bona parte is aware of the proceedings himself.
 The campaign managers are phy- sicians. They have their issue and they have selected MT Bonaparte as their candidate because he is known to favor the proposition. The issue is the "extermination of the criminal classes" The physicians propose to confine' habitual criminals in "asy- lum prisons" for life. MT Bonaparte as he has made known in his speeches would hang them. The phy- sic!ans admit that the habitual criminal should be hanged. but they are afraid that the country is not ready for this.
 As a compromise the doctors pro- pose to confine them for life either in asylums or in a penal colony, and they hope that MT Bonaparte can be persuaded to modify his views +c agree with their ideas when it is op- perfume and practical. A republican candidate for president nominated ON a platform, the chief plank of which calls for the confinement of habitual criminals, will constitute a favorable beginning in the medical opinion.
 The movement is being conducted by confidential correspondence from city to city and is interesting on this account as we'll as because of its new national issue.

THE DEADLY MINE
Another Explosion Took Place Today and 400 Miners
 Are Entombed.
FIRE FINDERS WORK

Pittsburg, Dec 19.-Another mine horror that may surpass in the num- Der of fatalities the terrible explos- tion in the two mines in Virginia, occurred to-day in the Darr mine of the Pittsburg Coal Co at Jacobs Creek, forty miles below here. An explosion took place at 11:30 this morning, entombing at least 400 men. Of the 400 fully 100 are Americans and the rest Hungarians. Shortly after the explosion smoke began to issue in huge columns from the mouth of the mine, and hope of rescue seemed to be abandoned. Us to 1 $ o'clock the fire prevented any attempt at rescue. Among those 'en- tombed were Pit Boss O'Connell and two fire bosses. There are no means yet of doing more than to guess whether it was gas or coal dust that caused the explosion. People are flocking from every town and city for miles around and the relatives and friends of the entombed men are frantic around the mouth of the burning mine.
 Reports of the disaster at West Newton, Penn, which is near to the scene, are to the effect that there are nearly five hundred men ill the mine. Officials express but little hope of sav- ing any of the unfortunate men. The mouth of the shaft is filled with rocks and dirt and the passages are badly blocked. Smoke and flames are is- suing from the mine and it is impos- sible to attempt to enter. It is report ed that the superintendent went into the mine this morning to investigate the conditions and is one of the en. tombed men.

DaDbury Division Blocked By Fifteen Cars Which Were
 Wrecked By Broken Rail.

Bedding, Conn.,, Dec. 19.-One of the worst freight wrecks that has blocked the Danbury division of the New York, New Haven 6 Hartford railroad in years occurred late last night a few hundred feet south of the station at this place and traffic over the division was not resumed un- til nearly noon to-day.
 The accident was caused by brok- en rail. Fifteen cars of a forty cal train bound from Harlem river tC Danbury were derailed and piled in a heap that it required the work ot two wrecking crews with steam der. The wreck occurred on a bridge spanning the Saugatuck river. The railroad parallels the highway there and half a dozen big loaded box cars were thrown down the embankment between the track and the highway and piled up against the trees border ing the wagon path.
 Two trainmen who were on tho wrecked portion of the train saved themselves from injury by jumping into the snow. The wreck complete ly blocked the main track of the divi sion and passengers between this city and South Norwalk and New York were transferred. The crash made b! the wrecked cars aroused people fol half mile around the vicinity o1 the station. Wrecking trains iron Harlem river and from New Haver reached the scene of the accident early this morning and section gang! were summoned from all parts of tho division to assist in clearing up tht | debris.

COST OF ARMAMENT.
Some Comparisons That Cause
 Thought.

Samuel E. Moffett. writing in Col Hers OH the real cost of armaments, makes some interesting comparisons between certain of our educational funds and the price of one battleShip. On June go of this year Yale nniver- sity had funds aggregating SSIi6isn. or s1.3O0OO0 less than the cost of ten million dollar battleship. whose life cannot be over twenty-five years. and which will probably he relegated to the scrap heap within twenty. The Rhodes bequest of oxford scholar ships. which made q sensation through out the world. would buy just one battleship. and so would the Nobel fund of nine millions. The John F.. Slater fund for the education of the negroes. for which Mr Slater received the thanks of congress and medal. was only S1.OO0OUO. the price of two torpedo boat destroyers. The cost of one battleship.- continues Mr Moi fett. would pay for all the T. ;wspa- perS and periodicals issued in the eight states of Delaware. Maryland. Virginia. West Virginia. North Caro- lima. South Carolina. Georgia and Florida in a year. When congress was asked to appropriate threa miI- lions for the Appalachian and White Mountain forest reserve. whica WOuld te of untold benefit to the whole east ern section of this country f1T gen erations to come. Speaker Cannon said congress could not afford to apPrO- priafc this sum. It was willing how ever. to give $1N.O0l0u0 for tuO more EaftieShfpS. although this country lived from Is55 to 1Sa5 happy. con- tented and unoo1guerel without poS- sesSing a single srmOred ship.-New YOrk Evening Post
