MANY VICTIMS

to Have Perisked
FIGHTING THE FLAMES
4
The Names of Many of Them Will
Never Be Known.?Most all of
Them Were Fire Fighters ami Only
One Woman Is Known to Have
Been llnrned.
It is believed that more than 200
persons, nearly all fire fighters, perished
in the Idaho forest fires.
Superintendent Weigel of the
Couer d'Alene National forest after
erceiving many reports of disaster
to various parties of his 600 employes,
posted a bulletin in his office
at Wallace, announcing the death of
114 of the men, and alBO stated his
grave concern for the safety of Ranger
Joseph B. Halm and 74 men who
were surrounded by Are Saturday ;
night In the forest on the Big Fork j
of the Couer d'Alene river, near '
where another party lost 13 men.
Halm was for four years the best ]
athlete at the Washington State col- *
lege at Pullman, a renowned foot- i
ball and baseball player.
The charred bodies of twenty fire .i
fighters were found at Seltzer creek i
in the St. Joe country. I
Two hundred Japanese dragged s
themselves to Avery, Idaho, and told \
of the death of their companions. 1
The twelve men. the employes of S
the Chicago, Milwaukee and Puget i
Sound railroad, had gone out to fight i
fire and had been Burrounded by
flames, only two escaping death. ?
The rangers missing in the Thorn- (
on Fall country of Montana were *
not heard from Wednesday. :
The number of deaths in the State s
of Washington was reduced to three, i
All of these are in the Pond d'Orelie f
valley near Newport. One of the victims,
Mrs. Ernest Relnhardt, wife of
a rancher, was the only woman who
la known to have been burned to I
.death.
Nearly all of the dead were fire
fighters. The wholesale loss of life
pccurred Saturady afternoon and
night when great numbers of men
were striving to cnecK tne names.
The names of many of the dead
will never be known.
When the groups of fire fighters
were overwhelmed the camps were
also destroyed. The clothes were
burned off the bodies of the men
and the bodies of the dead were
often so charred that searchers stepped
on them, thinking they were
pieces of burned logs. The fire obliterated
the trails and the burned
country Is difficult to go through because
of fallen trees.
With the towns out of danger and
the settlers fled to places of safety,
the rangers were able to devote
themselves entirely Thursday to the
saving of the trees. Various fires
were Isolated and will die out for
lack of fuel.
.In Montana rain and snow fell,
checking the flames. In Spokane the
3un shone clear and even in Wallace
the smoke cloud was lifted.
No one ventures to estimate the
financial loss as the extent of the
burned area is not fully known.

Later Booker handed him the weapon
and the fact that it was loaded
became evident only when his slaving
partner fell dead with a load of

Olden to surrender to the Fherih*

WHAT CENSUS SHOWS
t
RACK SUICIDE IN THE COUNTRY
AN ACTUAL PACT.
The Increase in Population Is Solely
Due to Immigration.?Decrease
In Rural Districts.
Race suicide is the dominant exhibit
in the new census. It is true
that the country's population has in
creasi-a, irom <t>,uuu,uuo to approximately
90,000,000, but the increase
has been almost solely due to immigration.
In former decades the average
increase in internal population
was 21 per cent. It has now fallen
ofT to six per cent, and in another 10
years will probably show a decrease.
This is the reason census officials see
in the contrast cause for alarm similar
to that which confronts France.
Such growth as the country has
enjoyed in the last ten years has
been largely due from immigration,
according to these returns. The vital
statistics of immigrants do not,
of course, enter into the general findings
in this respect. They l>ea "n
an important way upon them, how!
ever, considering that immigrants
may be classed as natives after ten
years; and the general tendency ,o
apply to them beyond that period as
well as to those of older residence.
iThere was a gross population in
1900 of 76.000,000. The present estimated
total is 90,000.000. Out of
the 14,000,000 increase 9.000,000
came from immigration. This make*
5,000,000 as the natural increase
from those who were in the country
in 1900.
Another remarkable showing of
the present census is the growtn of
cities at the expense of rural districts.
Many of the small cities- showincreases
above 50 per cent. For e<
ample, Atlanta, Ga? shows 72; Fast
St. Louis. 97; Akron, O., 02, and
Detroit, 63.
About 40 nor cent nf 11.? ne:.i?i->
tion is city dwelling. Returns Horn
rural districts are not yet ready for
tabulation, but so far as tnev have
iieen examined they show, save in
two states where local conditions account
for an increase, a positive falling
off from the population of 1900
Averages calculated from rural .lis
tricts taken at random figure out a
decrease of about 1 1 per cent
INDIANS Itl< II I'UOI'LK.
They Have Twenty Thousand Hollars
i*er Capita.
At Pawhuska, Okla., on Thursday
testimony was given before the Congressional
committee investigating
Indian affairs that each of the 2,090
Osage Indians is worth $20,000,
which, upon a per capita basis constitutes
the richest people in the
world.
As their property is held in restriction
by the government the Indians
have used a great many lawyers.
it was stated. One attorney
testified he represented 22 claimants,
who demanded that the government
place them on the Osage rolls, thus
giving them the right to twenty
thousand dollars' worth of property.
The wealth of these claimants, if
they are successful, would amount
to four hundred and sixty thousand
dollars. !
Another attorney testified he had i
been employed to oppose the claims I
on Hie ground that if allowed they
would decrease the wealth of the i
Irll.a ? - 1 ? *

THAT SIX PKK CKNT. TAKE.
Charleston Kxclinnge Opposes the
New Cotton haw.
We learn from The News and Courier
that the nieluhers of the Charleston
Cotton Exchange are almost
unanimously opposed to the carrying
out of the law parsed at the last
session of the Legislature, whereby
all cotton sold in t It is State may be
covered with bagging to the extent
of 6 per cent. tare. The opposition
to this law took definite shape at a
meeting of the board of directors of
the Cotton Exchange in a series of
resolutions. The legislation in the
resolutions is denounced as "unwise
and injurious to the cotton interests
of this port." and the "excessive bagging
contrary to all the rules and
regulations of all cotton exchanges,
both domestic and foreign." The
resolutions passed by the board of
directors of bhe Cotton Exchange folfolws:
Whereas, the Legislature of this
State has enacted a State law that all
cotton 6<>ld in this State may be
covered with bavging to the extent
of 6-per cent tare thus making a
aOO-pound bale entitled to thirty
pounds of bagging; and
Whereas, said excessive bagging
is contrary to all the ruleB and regulations
of all cotton exchanges, both
foreign and domestic, and such excessive
tare will be charged to the
buyer of the cotton, making the business
a severe loss in its inception;
and
Whereas, in our opinion, such a
law is only attempting to sell bagging
costing 3 1-2 cents per pound
as cotton at an average price of 12
to IS cents; be it
Resolved, that this Exchange condemn
such legislation as unwise and
Injurious to the cotton business of
this port.

Theodore Roosevelt served notice
Wednesday that he would wage war
without quarter on the "old guard"
of the Republican party in New York
State.. Having been druwn into the
fight, as he says, against his will,
he has determined to pursue it to
the end, win or lose.
Mr. Roosevelt's attitude was indicated
more clearly than at any time
before by a statement which he issued.
The statement follows:
"They will have all the fight they
want. 1 am only going to the convention
because 1 feel that the pubI
lie interests, the interests of the
people of New York demand that the
Republican party be given a chance
to stand squarely and uncomprisingiy
for clean, decent, honest polities.
"1 go to that convention to make
the speech as it had been planned
originally, and while l hope there
will be enough good sense to prevent
any one opposing the princi- Vifcj
pies for which 1 shall stand yet if
they do oppose them, then it is
their own affair and so far as I am
concerned the issue shall be abeolutely
clean cut." 1
The colonel said he was going Into J
the fight with his yes open, and with 1
full realization of the fact that he A
might be successful He said he felt fl
that, on account of the attitude of
members of the organization he was H
at perfect liberty to carry on un- H
compromising warfare. |B
Some of Col. Roosevelt's closest.
friends in the State have told him H
they were doubtful as to the out- ^
come, and .he has replied that he
himself thinks that even though he
should be successful in the State convention
at Saratoga and such a platform
as he desired should be adopted.
the result of the election would i
be In grave doubt. The colonel has I
told his friends tJiat he did not feel
sure that the Roosevelt-Hughes fore- 1
en would receive unqualified suppott
from the organization at the polls. J
Col. Roosevelt's Indorsement of
State Senator Frederick Davenport. e
was the first step in the fight which
he expects to carry on from now until
election time. He decided today
to go to the State fair in Syracuse
Septemebr 17 to speak and at that
time may talk politics. He probably
will make a number of other speeches,
both before and alter the State
convention.
Vice President Sherman, who is
one of the central figures in the
Btrugglo, and whom Col. Roosevelt
opposed by his endorsement of Senator
Davenport said emphatically
he would not talk about the situation.
Senator Davenport called on
Col. Roosevelt Wednesday to talk
over the present situation in his district.

What Barnes Says.
Wm. Barnes. Jr., Republican leader
of Albany, and of the 'old guard',
who selected Vice President Sherman
for temporary chairman of the
State Convention over the head of
Theodore Roosevelt, was in New
York Wednesday and gave out a
statement Wednesday, part of whicn
follows:
"When Mr. Griscom interjected
Mr. Roosevelt's name as a candidate
for the temporary chairmanship,
without the members of the Sta'e
committee knowing where Mr. Roosevelt
stood on the issues, now before
the people, in New York state, and
after the Vice President had t>eun
placed in nomination befoie that
committee, thereby forcing the issue,
which it was not the intentlrn
of the committee to create, he simply
threw a firebrand in the Republican
situation, entirely unwarranted
and for what purpose it Is not
for me to say."
"It Is therefore highly sensible,"
he continued, " on the part of Mr.
Roosevelt, if he hopes to control
the policies of the Republican parly
in mat state that ho should go to
the Convention as a delegate and
there thrash out what he thinks
aught to he the policy of the party
with those who have different oplulons
from him. It is assumed, of
course, that he will abide by the
decision of that Convention, as will
those who oppose him there, If -he is
successful." ^
