Report! 10 Forester at Wa*hingtou Aro That Horrors of Situation in WorUweeal Have Not Been Exag? gerated. Washlngtun, Oct. .11.?Forester Graves received the following tele? graphic report from Supervisor Mar? shall of the forest service at Case* Lake in regard to the forest fire sit aulton in Mlnnestota today. "Reports today give 1.000 burned and missing. The area burned is es? timated to be 2,500 square mile*. Fires still burning. Situation in this forest is well In hand." B?ndelte, Mnn., Oct. 11?Courage and optimism are renewing their hold on tbe settlers of the Rainy River region almost before danger from forest fires that killed more than 100 persons and destroyed tbe homes of several thousand is past. Tonight the fires seem to have spent their fury and the homesteaders aro planning to begin anew. Many are cheerful in spite of the setback. Relief is pouring in, and many are tramping back over the railroad through smouldering embers to their farms. Already plans have been laid for a new and better Baudette and a bet? ter Spooner. Trainloads of the pro? visions and supplies are coming In from many different sources. Women and children are being clothed with garments from the supply tents. The quick response from neighboring towns has enabled the relief commftet to feed all who applied. Fifteen hundred meals were served at outdoor tables today. The ground having been burned over in the danger zone, there is llt Ite apprehension felt in this vicinity. THOUSANDS RUINED BY FIRES. Flames In the Northwest Continue to Ravage the Country. War Road, Minn., Oct. 10.?Last reports of the forest fires in the Rainy River region of Minnesota to? night increases the horrors of the situation if not the number of lives lost. Estimate of the number of persons killed range from 75 to 400 tonight. Several conservative men of business and authority place the deaths at more than 100. But the greater concern for the present Is the rescue of the helpless and the relief of thousands of homeless men, women and children. Stories of wild animals dashing for safety side by side with human be? ings, their natural hostility and fear quenched by the horror of their sit? uation, came in today showing the desperateness of the situation. Tales also came of mothers burned to death with their babies on the breast, and strong men clinched while trying to shield their children. "It's hell down there," said Engi? neer Smith of the Duluth express to? day when a reporter swung up into the cab after the train had passed the lire zone. Ills train took many refugees from the scene of con? flagration to Winnipeg. "If the fire keeps on the way it is gotngi there will be mighty little left of tho population of that part of Minnesota," he said. "Tho flames have quieted down a little but it only needs a puff of wind and they st "t up again as bad as ever. , "Everything is wiped out. From the engine it looked as though every timber mill In the country had been burned except that of the Bhevlin Matthieu company which Is safe. All the lumber in the yards, however, was burned. We passed through part '?I tin burned territory in the night and the small red Hanns from the ?mouldering mass of logs looked like a real picture of an Inferno through the clouds of smoke which reeled acrOSS the path Of the engine. All tie- lies of the road have been ?arri< d. and the country Is level with the tracks." The Peoples' Bank has an adver? tisement today announcing that money will be loaned on cotton at fl per cent ?Your cough annoys you.

Dallas V. Cam, a white man, resident of Cam's Cross i t Roads, in Berkeley county, and the magistrate for that district, is now in i the county jail at Monck's Corner j < along with Julius DangsrAsld, an- I other white man, the two being charged with the same crime. The crime with which they are , i charged is the murder of James C. [ i Varnsr, a negro, near Cam's Cross i ] Hoards, on Sunday, September 18. On that night Vainer was called to I his front door and shot, dying in? stantly. The next morning Dallas V. Cam, in his capacity as magistrate, corraled a coroner's jury ana turned in the report of the inquisition to the county atorney, T. P. Crawford. He examined but one witness, the wife of the murderrd mar?. Some time afterwards people start? ed to talk about Cam in connection with the crime, an 1 recently some one sent a notice to Gov. Ansel who turned the case over to a special de? tective, H. R, Thompson, of Wash? ington, D. C, who at once got to work on the ^ase. He yesterday had Cam and Dangerfleld ar? rested on warrants sworn out by himself. The bad blood between the Cam and Varner families Is said to be the result of the fact that Cam had been locally accused of improperly detain? ing his housekeeper Rosa Lee Var? ner, a 16-year-o'd first cousin of the dead man. She Is held In default of %200 bond as one of the witnesses. DR. H. P. CHRIETZBERG DEAD. He Was Pastor of The Plrst Metho? dist Chnrch at Ono Time. Spartanburg, Oct. 10.?Dr. H. F.

Washington, Ott. 10.?After the t.ath of office as associate justice was idmlnistered today to Charles B. Hughes of New York the supreme court of the United States adjourned until tomorrow out of respect to the memory of the late chief justice, Mel? ville W. Fuller. The court Aas In session eight minutes. Every available seat in the little POUTt room was occupied by persons especially interested in the events of the opening day. The mother, the wife and the daughter of the new justice were the first of the relatives of the court to arrive. Attorney Gen? eral Wickersham and Secretary Nagel represented the cabinet. Presiding Justice Harlan announc? ed as soon as the court had taken its place that the president had ap? pointed Mr. Hughes to the bench, that the senate had confirmed the nomination and that Mr. Hughes was present. He directed Clerk Mc Klnney, by whom Mr. Hughes was seated, to read the latter's commis? sion. "The court extends a cordial wel? come," said Justice Harlan, as the clerk finished reading. He then directed the new member to take the oath of office; the oath of allegiance having already been ad? ministered in the robing room a few minutes before. Mr. Hughes read the oath in an impressive manner and at its con? clusion repeated after the clerk the words: "So help me God," and Marshal Wright escorted the new member to his seat. These formalities over, Justice Har? lan proceeded to announce the death of the chief justice. "Since its last session this court has sustained a very great loss," he said. "The earthly career of the chief justice has been closed by death. This sad event occurred on the 4th of July of the present year at his residence, and nearly 23 years of continuous and distinguished ser? vice on this bench. He met the final summons with the clarr.ness of spirit and composure of mind that marked his whole life. From his early man? hood he walked in the good way, up? rightly before God and his fellow men, and passed from this life into the life beyond the grave in the be? lief, I doubt not, that the Maker and Ruler of the earth ordereth all things aright. This count. Indeed the na? tion, will miss him, but the memory of his stainless life will ever remain with hi scountrymen as a priceless heritage." # The court then adjourned until to? morrow.
