WAS ILL ABOUT TEN DAYS Strong Hopes Had Been Entertained for His Recovery, but Later Compli. cations Developed That Proved'Fa. tal-Leaves a Wife and Two Chil dren-Was Educated as a Minister of the Gospel.' Aberdeen, S. D., July 2.-James H. Kyle, senior United States senator of South Dakota, died at his home in this city at 6:45 p. m. His illness dates back about 10 days and came near proving fatal a week ago, but owing to his remarkable constitution and vitality he rallied and strong hope; were entertained for his recovery. Owing to complications that did not develop seriously until Saturday an alarming condition was noted on Sun day, from which he failed to rally ex 4 cept slightly at intervals. During Monday forenoon he lapsed into a S state of coma. which lasted until about noon. He then became rational and so continued until a few minutes of his death.. His last words were, as he * requested that he be turned upon his side: "Now I will rest," and expired ina few minutes. He leaves a wife and two children, one a daughter, Ethelwyn, about 15 years of age, and S SENATORJ J. H. XETL an infant son, James H.. Jr. His wife bears up bravely under her great af fliction.

Picnickers at Madison Object to Inter ference of Evangelists. Madison, Wis., July 2.-A party of evangelists, headed by Frederick B. Duncan, were roughly treated at Schutzen park. Duncan and his fol lowers went to the park for the pur pose of dissuading the picnickers from drinking beer and indulging in the usual'outdooý' recreations. Some of the 2,000 people objected to what they considered the unwar ranted interference of the evangelists, and, surrounding the little band, they rushed it to the lake, where several of the members were pushed down the bank into the water.

Pittsburg, July 2.-The end of the first day of the strike troubles be tween the Amalgamated Association of Iron, Steel and Tin Workers cn one side and the American Sheet Steel company and American Steel Hoop company, constituent companies of the United States Steel corporation, on the other, found all of the union plants idle and many workers from open mills who are members of the Amalgamated Association on strike. The association officials say they arc satisfied with the situation and claim they will be able to control between 65.000 and 70.000 workmen in the two companies. No move was made on the part of either side to the contro versy and it is doubtful if anything decisive will be done for at least a week. Both men and manufacturers agree that a shutdown for about two weeks is necessary whether a settle ment is reached or not. In the mean time the association officials will make every preparation to be fully equippcd for a prolonged struggle shoubl it beo come necessary. While officials of neither side will venture a prediction much quiet talk is being indulged in, the trend of which leads to the belief that before the usual summer shutdown of the mills has expired a settlement will have been reached and the men who are now nominally on strike return to wo:k. The Anmalgamated oificials do not consider the negotiations with the Steel Hoop company broken off, but still plending and may be renewed at any time. J. W. Jenks, manager of the company, is of the same mind and intimated that the matter might be taken up any dlay and gave the in ference that a settlement would be arrived at. Reports received at the general of flee of the Amalgamated Association show that nearly all the independent mills have signed the new wage scale. NOT A QUESTION OF WAGES. Steel Trust Gives Out a Statement Concerning the Strike. New York, July 2.-The following statement in regard to the labor trou bles was given to the Associated Press at the offices of the executive committee of the United States Steel corporation: "The United States Steel corpora tion is simply a stockholding company and does not in any respect direct the. management of any company in whose stock the former is interested. In formation has been received from the officers of the American Steel Hoop company and the American Sheet Steel company, respectively, that the questions which have been discussed by them and representatives of the Amalgamated Association grow out of the request by the latter to extend union labor into mills in which union labor has not heretofore existed; that the officers of the two companies above mentioned have expressed a willingness to sign the Amalgamated Association scale for mills in, which their unions have heretofore existed. but not for other mills. No question of amount of wages is involved." Saddle-horses. pack-horses and work horses for sale. Also horses bronght in fronrthe range for owners Leave word at The Mail office.

RIBLY t-ROM THE IN TENSE HEAT. NEW YORK LEADS THEM ALL Seventy-eight Dead and One Hun dred and Seventy-seven Prostrated There-Highest Temperature Ever Recorded at Philadelphia-Balti more Is the Hottest Place in the Country. New York, July 2.-At 3:10 p. m. the thermometer at the weather office reached t8 degs. The records :r1ow that In the 30 years p!recedling on only two days in all that period has a higher temperature been reached. These were July 9. 1876. and .luly 13, 1898. On these days the thermometer reached 99 degs. In the early morning hours there was what might he called a light breeze blowing, but in the early part of the afternoon the brleeze died away and the city was baking in torrid heat. The suffering in the city. par ticularly in the crowded tenement house districts, was most intense. As the day grew the deaths and prostra tions increased, and although prepara. tions were made in all hospitals for this emergency the institutions were scarcely able to cope with the demand made upon their energies. During the day there were reportcd 57 deaths andt 141 prostrations in the boroughs of Manhattan and the Bronx. During the same time 21 deaths and 36 prostrations had been reported in Brooklyn. There were so many ambulance calls that the police were called on to supply patrol wagons and every ambulance did double duty in re sponding to calls. Many patients were carried to hos pitals in cabs and carriages and sev eral went to Bellevue and the Har lem hospital in moving vans. The prevalence of the grippe among the horses of the city also tepded to mili 'tate against relief work. In many cases horses had to be obtained from contractors to draw patrol wagons and ambulances. The weather bureau shows that the maximum was 98, but this does not Indicate the heat on the streets. Many thermometers registered 108 at 3:l1t and all of them over 100 on the street level. If the heat was killing on mankind it was worse off the horses. They dropped right and left. At one time there were eight dead horses lying on Broadway between Twenty-third street and Forty-second street. There were 14 horses prostrated in the vicin ity of Madison square alone. The rush of the crowds to the parks and to the nearby sea shore resorts was unprecedented in the history of the citv. BREAKS ALL RECORDS.
