Evening Republican, Volume 14, Number 202, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 25 August 1910 — Western Fires Abated by Rain And Snow and Danger Less. [ARTICLE]

Western Fires Abated by Rain And Snow and Danger Less.

Rain in the valleys and snow in the mountains of the stricken forest fire territory of the northwest has served to give temporary and possibly permanent relief to that country. The Indianapolis Star states that the bodies of 112 persons were found in the ruined camps, and that 74 are missing, but it is thought that most of the missing will turn up. Rensselaer relatives of people there are feeling much easier since the report of today.
