Are you looking for a James Carney?

I found a newspaper article with the heading:

Date: January 18, 1911
Location: Montana
Paper: Anaconda Standard
page 9
Inquest over Body of James Carney Jury Returns Verdict That He Came to Death from Gas

James Carney was a shift boss at the Diamond mine on January 14, 1911, when he met his death. Another article states that he was 30 years old and was just married five months before he died.

If you think this is your James. I would be glad to e-mail the articles to you.
