VANISH KING DEAD
Christian IX Passes Away
Suddenly in Copenhagen.
A LONG REIGN IS ENDED
Was Monarch Greatly Beloved by His
Subjects and Related by Blood to
Host of Royal Personages
in Europe.
t;
Christian the Ninth, the aged king
of Denmark, who occupied the throne
^sixty-three years, dean of the crowned
. heads of Europe, father of King George
of Greece, Queen Alexandra of Great
Britain and Ireland and of the Dowager
Empress Maria Fedoria of Russia,
grandfather of King Haakon the
S&eventh of Norway, and related by
blood or by marriage to most of the
^European rulers, died with startling
r suddenness at Amalienberg palace in
.. Copenhagen, Monday. Prince Frederick,
his eldest son, who will be
known as Frederick the Eighth, will
be proclaimed king.
? The official bulletin was issued Monday
evening:
*'His majesty died at 3:30 o'clock
this afternoon. After his majesty
had brought this morning's audience
( to a conclusion, he appeared to be
quite well and proceeded to luncheon
as usual. Toward the end of the meal
he gave evidence of indisposition, and
was competed to retire to bed at 2:30
p. m. His majesty passed away peacefully,
tlie symptoms. Indicating heart
failure."
This bulletin tells concisely the
story of the death scene, which found
every one, even those who realized
the increasing feebleness of the king,
* unprepared for the sudden shock.
The death of King Christian has
plunged half the courts of Europe
Into the deepest mourning, and.
brought a sense of personal loss, as
well as of sincere grief, to everyone
. throughout the kingdom of Denmark,
reaching even. to the humblest cottage,
evidences of which are shown
everywhere. It has cast a pall over
the palaces of the monarchs of Great
BritaiD, Russia, Norway and Greece.
When the flag flying over the palace
was placed at half mast and the
hews spread from mouth to mouth, it
was not believed by the great crowds
which gradually assembled * in the
squar in front of the Amalienberg
/ ' palace, but when uncertainty gave
place to certainty, those in the assemblage
shed tears and dispersed in
respectful silence.
King Christian, who was nearing 30
years of age, appeared to be in his
usual health Monday morning. Afte/
taking breakfast he held a public audience,
which it has been his custom
i *
* to do every Monday morning. The
reception was largely attended, and
his majesty conversed freely and affably
with a number of officials and
other persons. When the function
was over the king, though appearing
to be slightly fatigued, attended
lunchean with the members of his
family, among whom were the Dowager
jSmpress of Russia and his brother*
General Prince Hans. During the
- meals his majesty complained of indisposition
and was assisted to hl3
bed room by the dowager empress
and Prince Hans.
Just as the king breathed his last
Crown Prince Frederick entered the
room and the other members of the
royal family arrived shortly afterwards.

THE HEPBURN RATE BILL
Favorably Reported in House With
Recommendation of Republicans
and Democrats. *
Chairman Hepburn reported to the
house Saturday his railroad rate bill
with the favorable recommendations
of the entire republican and democratic
members of the interstate and
I foreign commerce commission.
The report is a comprehensive explanation
of the measure. Preliminary
to giving details as to the intention
of each section, the statement
is made that the bill is the product
of several years' consideration by the
committee. The object of the bill is
simply to amend the interstate com
merce law which has been in force
for twenty years.
No attempt is made to give the
commission power to readjust freight j
classification, a power which Hepburn
says his committee considers a
much greater power over rates than j
in the bilL Under a grant of power
to establish a system of freight clas- I
sification the commission would have j
authority to take the initiative. Little j
complaint, it is said, has been heard I
against classification.
In attempting to correct the shipping
evils the bill provides for a
broader definition of the words "railroads"
and "transportation," so as to
include within the jurisdiction of the
commission the regulation of switch
es, private cars and terminal charges.
It is section four of the bill whicn
confers power on the commission to
establish a rate or to declare what !
will be a proper charge in a certain j
instance. The report states in this
connection that it is just to the commission
that none of its members
think it wise that authority to take
the initiative in rate making should
be conferred upon it.
Its jurisdiction is confined to cases ,
where complaint has been made, when
it is authorized to declare what shall J
be a "just and reasonable and fairly
. remunerative rate or rates, charge
or charges, to be hereafter obseryed
in such case as the maximum to be
charged; and what regulation or practice
in respect to such' transportation
is just and fair and reasonable thereafter
to be followed, and to make an
order that the carried shall cease and
desist from such violation to the extent
to which the commission finds
the same to exist, and shall not thereafter
publish, demand or collect any
raie oj cuarge ior sucii uauspynauuu
in excess of the maximum ra?e, or
charge so prescribed and shall conform
to the regulation or practice so
prescribed."
Additional requirements and restrictions
are provided in the matter
of awarding damages, receiving complaints
an'd giving notice of hearings,
etc. A penalty of $5,000 is provided
for violation or disobedience of. any
order of the commission. Authority is
given to the shipper to apply to ^Jie
circuit court for the enforcement of
the commission's orders. The court
is to enforce this order by means of
injunction.
Appeals may be taken to the supreme
court direct, and such cases
are given priority over all other exceptional
cases. Acfeess may be had
at all times to the books of the
carriers. A fine of $5,000 or imprisonment
for two years is the penalty
provided for refusing to allow, experts
of the commission to examine' the
books of such carrier.
The bill provides for two additional
members of the commission, the term
of service for a commissioner being
Increased to seven years and the sal
ary to $iu,uuu. *

WHEELER AT REST
Body Entombed in Historic
Arlington Cemetery,
FINAL REVEILLE SOUNDED
Appropriate and Loving Tributs Paid
by Nation?Full Military Honors
Observed?Vets of Eoth Sections
in Line.
"
A Washington special says: With
full military honors the body or General
Joseph Wheeler, the veteran o!
two wars, a former representative in
congress and a retired officer in the j
United. Stales army, was laid at rest
Monday in the National Cemetery at j
Arlington.
The ..spot; selected, for his final repose
lies on the grassy slope in front
of and to the right of the historical
Lee mansion, and is regarded as one
'
of the most beautiful sites in the
home of soldier dead, as it overlooks
the nation's capital across the Potomac.
Thousands uncovered their heads
in silent tribute as the impressive
caravan of mourners made lis way i
slowly out Pennsylvania avenue ber.eath
a wealtn of sunshine. All along
the line cf march the white carnation
marked the memory of the late
William McKinley, and on the casket
wrapped in the folds of the American
flag there bloomed a cluster of these
pure flowers. They were placed on
the altar in St. John Episcopal church.
Beside them bloomed the flowers sent j
by the president and Mrs. Roosevelt.
It was an appropriate tribute which
the nation paid. From 10 o'clock Lr.
the morning until tw^> in the after |
coon, while the body lay in state in
the historic little church on La Fayette
quare thousands of his friends
passed up the aisle to the outer chancel
and beamed in silence as they
looked for the last time' on his face.
His comrades in the great war and
in the war with Spain, his friends
while in congress and the sons of the
veterans of the two wars, the Daughters
of the Confederacy were all represented
in this silent, steady stream
of people that passed through St.
j John's.
The place of honor to the right of
the president in tne ngni irausepi
was given to "Wheeler's old cavalry, *
. who came on from the south by special
invitation of the family. .Bacic
of them sat other Confederate veterans.
In the body of the church were
many veterans of the war with Spain.
Lieutenant General and Mrs. Chaffee
were among the friends who sat near
the family. The cabinet was represented
by Secretary Taft.and Postmaster
General Cortelyou.
Two minutes before the hour for
the service to begin the entire congregation
arose while the president,
preceded by his military aide, Colonel
Bromwell, and his naval aide, Lieutenant
Commander'Key, In full uniform,
and accompanied by Mrs. Roosevelt,
entered the church from the
transept door and were assigned to
the first pew which they shared with
the family, who entered immediately
afterward. The president and Mrs.
Roosevelt were both in. mourning.
The service was brief and impressive,
and followed with a few exceptions,
the regular liturgy for the burial
of the dead. Dr. Ernest Stires, rector
of St. Thomas, New York, read
the selections beginning, am the
Resurrection and the Life." The lesson
was read by Rev. Dr. Randolph H.
McKim, rector of the Church of the
,nH Rnland Cot
Vjyiyu.a uj, uuu _
ton Smith, rector of St. John's, both
concluded the service.
From the church, the line of march
was down Fifteenth street to Pennsylvania
avenue, on past the white house
and the war department and across
the aqueduct to Arlington. The pageant
made an impressive picture, witnessed
by thousands who stood with
tared heads. It was a few ininutes
alter four o'clock when it reached the
cemetery grounds where a vast crowd
had assembled. As the casket was
lowered into the ground, the troopers
were brought to "Present arms." Rev.
Dr. Stires then read the committal
service. A male quartette sang "Nearer
My God to Thee" and "Shall We
Gathfer at the River?" The cavalry
fired three shots over the grave, when
Fay Wilson, who sounded taps over
the grave of President McKinley,
sounded taps over the grave of Gen
eral Wlheeler. Then a Dugier iruui
the regular army sounded reveille.
After the services hundreds passed
by the grave as a last mark to their
affection.
STREET NAMED FOR WHEELER.
General is Honored by National House
of Representatives.
A Washington dispatch says: The
name of General Joseph Wheeler was
honored in the house Monday by the
passage of a bill re-naming a local
street, "Wheeler street."
Mr. Campbell of Kansas suggested
that the street was too small and
short to do the proper honor to the J
name proposed. j
SMALL AND HARDWICK.
Engage In Lively Joint Debate Over
Question of 'Disfranchising Negroes
In the State of Georgia.
With sleet and snow failing thick
and fast, an audience of 500 people
gathered in the auditorium at Barnesville,
Ga., Friday night to hear the
joint discussion of the disfranchisement
question between Congressman
T. W. Hardwick of the tenth congressional
district, and Sam W. Small
nf d.pnrpi?i Tho rlphata woe nnonwl
by Mr. Hardwick, who is for disfranchisement.
.
There are suffrage restrictions in
many states, he said, but as to negro
suffrage, the question is whether it
is right or wrong, or, if wrong, let's
get the remedy for it. Negro suffrage,
he declared, originated in the
hellish brain of Thad Stevens.
Mr. Hardwick read at'some length
from Savoyard against negro suffrage
and the political equality of the
races. He quoted Abraham Lincoln,
to the effect that he had never been
in favor of bringing about the social
or political equality of the races. If
to leave the negroes with the ballot
boxes don't leave him with political
equality,.where does it .leave him? he
asked.
The trend of sentiment at the north
is now turning against this political
equality, he said. Mr. Hardwick consumed
some time in reading quotations
and supreme court decisions in
order to lay the foundation for his
argument. The inferiority and criminal
characteristics of the pegro race
.were dwelt upon at some length by
Mr. Hardwick.
What do we propose to do about this
thing in Georgia? Virginia, North
Carolina, South Carolina, Alabama,
Mississippi and Louisiana have acted
and pointed out the way. Georgia
remains the only state with any
considerable number of negroes which
has not taken steps to protect her
white men and women from this inferior
criminal race."
Mr. Hardwick then read his disfranchisement
bill, which was defeated in
V"W .-0.~ I
"I am not ashamed of it," he said.
"I am ready to die for it tonight."
Following are some of the shots
fired against disfranchisement by Mr.
Small:
Giving the negro the ballot was
the most monumental crime against
the nation, but before we can wipe it
out two-thirds of the states must be
brought to give their assent. Is it
wise to invite upon ourselves trouble
that Stephens, Toombs and Jenkins
and Wofford refused to invite? Toombs
and Stephens and others got together
and put in the constitution the cumulative
tax-paying provision. Crumpacker
had told him the author of
that provision was the wisest statesman
of the age, for it was supreme
court proof, and congress could not
i change it.
Enforce an educational test and you
will disfranchise more white men and
' enfranchise three times as many negroes
as are going to the polls today.
M*r. Small declared Mr. Hardwick and
his associates were trying to substitute
the educational test for the taxpaying
test all the time, and only
changed about three weeks ago when
they found it would not do.
The grandfather clause has never
been carried to the supreme court of
th#? TTnited States. Every lawyer I
whose opinion is worth anything will
tell you, when it is carried up there,
it will be declared invalid.
Comptroller General Wright had
said it would take over $3,000,000 to
pay the back taxes of the negroes and
get them where they could vote. Who
is going to pay the back taxes of the ,
negroes and get them where they
can vote? Who is going to pay any
such price as that?
Whenever you find any dura fools
who have got three or four million
dollars to throw away, then the negro
vote will become a peril and- not
till then. He declared the only object
of this disfranchisement movei
ment was to make an opportunity for
men who had been tried in the bal|
ance and found wanting to get back
into power.

Wrecked Steamer.
NUMBER OF VICTIMS 121
No Women or Children Among the
Rescued, as They Refused to
Leave the Vessel ? Frightful
Details of Disaster.
Latest advices from Victoria, B. C.,
state that with only 33 out of the 154
persons on board known to be safe
up to a late hour Thursday night,
the wrecked steamer Valencia now
lies submeiged a!id broken "on the
Vancouver coast, five miles from Cape
Beale.
Only a portion of a mast stands
above the water, and the fleet of
steamers and tugs turned their attention
to patrolling the coast in the
hope of finding boats, rafts of wreckage
still afloat with survivors; but
the belief grows stronger each hour
that 121 persons, including most of
the passengers, are lost
Of the 33 persons definitely % accounted
for, and these do not include
three men believed to be survivors
seen on shore by the whaling vessel
Orion, six have been taken on
the Salvor, bruised, half naked and
exhausted. 'Nine others in a similar
plight are still camped on Darling
creek in a telegraph hut, while the
remaining eighteen were picked up
by the- City of Topeka from a raft
Not a woman or child is among
the saved, survivors saying that the
women refused to leave the wreck I
ovon whon tr?1H tha shin was E^oine
to pieces.
A dispatch from Cape Beale says
the steamer Valencia is no more.
Heces of the steamer and the cargo
were scattered along the beach.
A dispatch from Tatoosh reports
that the tug Pioneer arrived at Neah
bay Thursday evening and reported
that the City of Topeka was following
her from the wreck of the Valencia
en route.to Seattle with twenty-three
survivors on board.
These are the eighteen taken from
the raft and the five from the Salvor,
being the boat's company, which
reached Cape Beale on Tuesday and
made the first report of the disaster.
Survivors of the wreck of the
steamship who were picked up from
a life raft by the steamer City of
Topeka aire of the opinion that Cap?
tain O. M. Johnson, master of the Valencia,
made no effort to save his own
life even when a chance presented.
According to their story, Captain
Johnson was heartbroken over the
great loss of life attending the loss
of the Valencia.
