TOWNS BURNED DOWN

FURIOUS FOREST FIRES IN WISCONSIN. I

Iron Itlver, Virginia, North York and

Several Other Thriving Villages Almost Wiped Out of Kxlstence—Tliou-

sands of People Left Homeless.

ASHLAND, Wis., June 19.—Iron River a thriving lumber town of over 2,000 population, twenty miles from Ashland, is in flames, and is likely to be entirely wiped out. The fire caught on the outskirts of the village from forest fires, destroying the new schoolhouse. Congregational and Catholic Churches and llessey & Katton's bij warehouse. The entire residence poc» tion of the city is in llamcs.

Help was sent for to Ashland and a special train sent out with a detachment of tho fire department from here. At Moquah the special jumped the track, causing several hours delay, but no one was injured.

Forest fires have been raging all through Northern Wisconsin, causingthe hot air to sweep this section like hot winds on the desert. Washburn had a close shave, and the fire has made a heavy sweep in and about the White River. It is likely to sweep on south and burn millions of feet of standing pine. It was only a year ago that Iron River was entirely destroyed by fire. The town had just completed a Bystem of water works. Several people were brought to Ashland last night who had been badly injured, narrowly escaping with their lives RThe latest advices from Iron River state that the town is gone. The wires on the. Northern Pacific and Omaha are all down, the poles being burned away. The fire department has been fighting- fire steadily since 8 o'clock yesterdav morning.

A bad fire is raging at North York. Ten cars on the siding burned. A special was Bent out for he'.p to fight the flames and save the trestles and bridges along the railroads.

DULUTH,Minn., .lune in.—The towns of Virginia and Iron Mountain, on th« Duluth, Mesabat Northern Hoad,have "been destroyed by fires which havs "been raging for a week. Mesaba and Biwabik, on the Duiuth & Iron Ridge Road, were also visited by serious, fires, •nd Tower had a similar experience.

There are 2.000 people homeless in. Virginia and without food or shelter, every provision depot and contents ia the place being destroyed. The women and children were put into box cars, but there was not an engine there to move them and they have nothing to eat. The situation at Mountain Iron is little better.

As soon as the news of these facts reached Duluth arrangements were begun to send relief to the distressed people. President Greatsinger of the Duluth & Iron Range promptly placed a train at the disposal of parties who had already taken steps to obtain tents and provisions.

President Alfred Merritt of the Mesaba Road ordered the purchase of $3,000 worth of provisions, which will be sent by the road to the people at the various to%yns that have suffered. Arrangements have been made for the oity to send food, and several contracting firms contributed numerous tents.

A SEVEN DAY FAIR.

IT WILL BE KEPT OPEN ON SUNDAY.

The United States Caurt of Appeals,

Chief Justice Fuller Presiding, Reverges the Decision of tho Lower

Court—Further Moves of the Closers.

CHICAGO, June 19.—As a result of the decision of the United States Court of Appeals the World's Fair will in all probability be open every Sunday. It is barely possible that by some means the Sunday closers can get the decision reversed, but it is extremely improbable.

Whether the government will take any further action is not known. District Attorney Milchrist said he could not tell what the government would do until he had communicated with Attorney-General Olney. M. Olney's views on the matter are well known, and it is therefore probable that so far as the government is concerned the Sunday-closing question will remain as at present.

There are other legal proceedings against Sunday-opening pending, notably the case by Wanamaker & liiown, a New Jersey corporation, and P. W. Pratt of Massachusetts, and these will be pushed at once, with the idea in view of securing a temporary restraining order that will keep the gates of the|fair closed on Sunday.

As the matter now stands both sides have scored a victory—the Sundayclosers in the Circuit Court and the openers in the Court Appeals. The latter constituency had the advantage of having the regularity consitituted Court Appeals sit on the case at the first hearing1 otherwise the final decision would hare been in favor of closing.

Summed up, the decision by Chief Justice Fuller and Judges Bunn and Allen was based on the claim that the government had no property rights in Jackson Park. This assumption will be squarely met by the Wannamaker & Brown and Pratt bill. The former are stockholders and the latter an exhibitor, so that both have property rights. Judges Woods, Jenkins and Grosscup will decide when the pleadings on these bills shall be heard.

WHERE IS FELIX BORDEN?

the

Story from Baltimore Regarding Missing Strange Young Man.

New YORK, June 19.—The World's special from Baltimore says: "Mrs. Ramsey, who keeps a boarding house at 313 St. Paul Street, says that previous to the Borden murders a boy came from New England and boarded with her. He told her he was the adopted son of Lizzie Borden's uncle and that his name was Felix Borden. He said that his parents' name was Desroches. From all accounts he did not live happily with the Bordens, and as a result of a disagreement with them he left home suddenly. Felix told Mrs. Ramsey that his home was in New Bedford or Fall River. He spent his money freely. He did not pay his board bill and left, saying that he was going to his home in Massachusetts to get money to settle. "A few da-s after Felix left the Borden murders were committed. He re» turned to Baltimore. On one occasion Mrs. Ramsey spoke to Felix about the murders. She says that he replied:

Oh, Lizzie did it.' Asked if the youngf man was ever heard to make any threatening remarks about the Bordens of Massachusetts, Mrs. Ramsey said: -'During the two years Felix lived here he spoke frequently of the Bordens, and, judging from his remarks, I did not think he cared very much for them. He referred, I remember on one occasion to some old woman up there and did not speak very complimentary of her. I judged from his remarks that he had had a quarrel with his people before he came here, although he never told me the particulars. "Asked to describe the young man, Mrs. Ramsey said he was a mediumsized fellow, with dark hair, and when he left was 21 years old. His description, it is said, tallies with that given by several witnesses on Thursday, who said they saw a strange young man at the Borden gate the morning of the murder. Young Borden left Baltimore last fall and has not been heard of here since."

DEATH IN A WATER-SPOUT.

Hany Feople Drowned in a Meilcta Town—Houses Washed Away.

CITY OF MEXICO, June 13.—The town •f Utzermatlan has been visited by a terrible water-spout which resulted in the IOBS of life and great damage.

The water-spout burst unexpectedly over the town at midnight. In a few minutes the flood had covered the entire town, the water rising to the height of four feet inside the houses.

The people were panic-stricken and in attempting to escape from the flood many men, women and children were drowned.

A great many families were made homeless and the city council of the place has issued an appeal asking other towns to come to their relief.

Terre Haute Failure.

TERRE HAUTE, Ind., June 19.—The assignment of the Vigo Real Estate Company and the Forest Park and Mineral Springs Company, the latter a part of the former concern, do not cause alarm in the bueiness community in proportion to the amount of assets and liabilities. The Vigo Real Estate Company reports assets of $190,000 and liabilities of 877,000. The Park Company borrowed #5,000 from the Real Estate Company and the pressing need of this amount caused the assignment.

Ealalia Enjoying Herself.

NEW •OBK, June 10.—The Infanta Eulalia enjoyed herself in her own way yesterday. She attended mass at the cathedral, as any ordinary person might, and took a sail on the bay without the deafening roar of royal salutes from the men-of-war, for she left her title behind and traveled incoenito— that is, she is only the Duchess of Montpensier for the present.

Clearing House Forced to Issne Certificates to Tide tho Hanks Over—One of the Oldest Hanks in Kansas City

NEW YORK, June 10.—The financial situation here is extremely critical. For the fourth time in the history of tlie city the Clearing House has been compelled to issue its certificates to tide the banks over. There is a feeling of general uneasiness in financial and commercial circles. It remains to be seen whether the issue of Clearing House certificates will have the desired effect.

The Clearing House association adopted the following resolutions: "Resolved,jJThat a committee of five be appointed by the chairman with the President, to receive from the banks members of the association bills receivable and other securities to be approved by said committee, who shall be authorized to issue therefor to such depositing banks loan certificates bearing 0 per cent interest per annum, and such loan certificates shall not be in excess of 75 per cent of the market value of the securities or bills receivable deposited, and such certificates shall be received and paid in settlement of balances at the Clearing House, and all the rules and regulations heretofore adopted in the issue of such loan certificates shall be in force in the present issue."

No Clearing House certificates have yet been applied for. The loan committee of the association, of which Pres. Frederick D. Tappen of the Gallatin National Bank is chairman, will meet to receive applications. The certificates will be supplied in denominations of 85,000, $10,000 and S:20,000. The previous occasions on which certificates were issued and the amounts were: 1873, $20,500,000 1864, §25,000,000 and 1890, 816,500,000.

WASHINGTON, June 16.—The proposed issuance of clearing house certificates in New York is regarded by Treasury officials with favor, because it indicates a determination on the part of the clearing house there to leave nothing undone that will prevent trouble with the banks. As a matter of precaution the course of the clearing house officers is commended.

OMAHA, Neb., June 16.—The run on the Omaha banks is practically over, the Omaha Savings, which caught it hardest, having passed through the two days' siege apparently without inconvenience, and yesterday there was no indication at any of the banks of the strain of the laBt forty-eight hours. The only noticeable feature was the large number of depositors who, now that the craze has had its run, were seemingly in as much of a hurry to get their money back into the banks.

KANSAS CITV, Mo., June 16.—The First National Bank of this city, one of the oldest and generally believed to be one of the strongest financial institutions in the Southwest, failed to open its doors yesterday morning. The deposits are reported to be 8600,000.

FAIRFIELD, 111., June 16.— E. Bonham, banker, made an assignment yesterday morning. The deposits were large up to last few days. The bank was considered in a safe condition. The cause is supposed to be the failust of the Fairfield woolen mills.

The Attorney General proposes to begin proceedings in the courts at once to force the forfeiture of the railroad company's charter.

8T. PETERSBUBG, June 16.—It is claimed that under the Russian-Amer-ican extradition treaty nobody will be surrendered to Russia except upon evidence that will satisfy an American jury, before which the accused maj claim trial before being extradited.

AGAINST THE KAISER.

HIS FRIENDS OUTNUMBERED1 IN THE VOTING.

Of the SIS Members of tho Reichstag Elected 114 Will Voto 'Against the Army Hill—Great Growth of tho Socialist Party Causes Alarm.

BERI.IN, June 19.—The election returns are virtually complete. The report from but one district was lacking. The revisions of the returns may necessitate a few alterations, but they will be trivial. The candidate elected number 215. Of these 101 will vote for the army bill, 114 against it. In the following liBt by parties the antiSemitic Conservatives ore included with the Conservatives and the Independents are treated as members of the parties with which they affiliated in the Reichstag.

Lieber Clericals, 68 Social Democrats. 2!t Conservatives and Agrarians, 44 Xational Liberals, IS: Radical Unionists who favor the bill, 4: Poles, 12: Free Conservatives, 10: Clericals favorable to the bill, 11 Alsatians, 7 South German Democrats, 4: anti-Sem-ites, I! (two favoring the bill Bavarian Agrarians, 2 Guelphs, 1 Danes, 1 Bavarian Separatists, 1.

Among- the candidates in the 183 new ballots there will be 10'Poles. 52 Conservatives, 9 Agrarians, 7 Free Conservatives, 72 National Liberals, 30 clericals, 77 Social Democrats, 11 Kailic-al Unionists, !5 Ricliterists, 16 Anti-Semites 8 and Guelpes.

As was expected, the latest returns have increased steadily the list of members upon whom the government can rely for support. While the victories of the Social Democrats have been regarded with alarm, their immediate effect upon the fate of the army bill will be more than offset by the losses of Rieliter Radicals. After four hours in conference the ministers who had met the Chancel or to discuss the results of the election decided that in view of the recent returns it would be superfluous and inexpedient to issue an appeal to the country before the second ballots. On Friday several ministers favored this mode of arousing the voters to support government candidates, but only two of them were still in favor of the plan. The great majority of the ministers are confident that by means of a conservative, free con servative and national liberal cartel thev.can secure a large number of seats at the second ballots from the Richterists and clericals. They depend upon the general alarm excited by the Social Democratic victories to drive clericals and opposition clericals into the government camp in constituencies where the contests are between Conservatives or National Liberal candidates and Socialists.

TALK WITH Rl.'^SpLL A. ALGER.

Thinks There Are Not Many Frands in the Pension Department,

NEW YORK, June IU.-'The Times •aye: "I should be glad to see a complete investigation of the Pension Office to determine what basis there is for the charges of mismanagement and the pensioning of those who are not entitled to receive pensions," Gen. Russell A. Alger said to a reporter: "I do not believe it would be found that as many frauds exist as it has been charged in some quarters. There may be some cases where pensions are improperly granted, but I believe there are no more than must necessarily be the case in a business of such large proportions. "I have seen nothing that indicates a hostile feeling on the part of the administration toward the pensioners, and I am willing to give it credit for a purpose fairly and honestly to administer the pension lawB as they exist. "The repeal of the Sherman silver act would be of advantage to the country just now. Something is needed to re-establish confidence at home and abroad. "One thing which is needed is that this country Bell as many goods as it buys."
