NEW York, Sept. 22.-The great battle
among land owners and spectators over
the site for the worlds fair continues una
bated. By the action OF the executive
committee on site, the examination of
four of the proposed sites will begin about
the latter part of September New and
powerful competition has entered the field
Much Of the property in the suburbs is
owned by the estates Of wealthy families
aud well known millionaires. The Astors,
John d. Gimme s. the Fields, MAYOR
Grace, the Hammersleys and the Cuttings
have all large suburban holdings, whic
would be vastly improved in value should
the fair come their way. At the --latest
meeting of the committee maps were sub
mitted showing some of these proper les at
OAK Point, Claremoat Park, Fort George
Inwood and ana Riverside and Morning
side Parks.
Unlike the great down town estates,
which have been held in some instances
for generations, these suburban properties
are OF recent requirement, aud the effect of
their purchase by the citv for the fair
would be to add millions to the Golfers of
some of the richest of our population. Out
side spectators are regarding this new de-
vel )pment with watchful eyes and every
movement OF inc committee on SlG0 IS TOl-
lowed rs je lousy as hunter follows his
yame. They see their own chances of profit
vanishing as the big holders come to the
front; for the latter can offer to the COM
mittee better Inducements than outsiders
CO Id afford to give.
Few people, even in New York, have an
adequate IDEA of the extent of the property
held by these great es es and of the o era
ton of the "unearned increment" process
as and labor professors term it-by which
it has appreciated in value. The Astnrs,
who are among the very largest holders
think nothing of purchasing almost an en-
tire block at time. They own every house

Sixth avenues, with the exception of t q

the largest owners of improved real estate
in the world, the next being the Duke OF

phenomenal rise in values 10 the great New
York estates-a rise which will De still fur

Helena was startled at an early hour
yesterday morning when the news was re-
ceived that Spokane Falls was in ashes.
The lNDEPENDENT exclusively spread the
news in extras, which were brief owing TO
the meagre information flashed over the
wires. Expressions of sympathy were
numerous and crowds Of people eagerly as
sembled around the INDEPENDENT bulle-

contradicted OF else fuller details. But lit
tie time was spent in comment, however
when IL became apparent that the people
of the stricken city were in need of assist

Postmaster Curtis sent the following: "DO

SPOKANE FALLS, Aug. 5.-[Special to
the Independent. THE most devastating
fire that ever occurred in any city of like
population swept over the business portion
of Spokane Falls last night. 1t originated
at 6:l5 D. m. in the roof of q lodging house
on Railroad avenue, the third door west Of
Post street. A dead calm prevailed at the
time and the spectators supposed the fire.
men would speedily bring the flames un-
der control. This could have been done if
proper precautions had been taken, but
the superintendent of the water works was
out of the city, and for some reason the
men in charge failed to respond to the call
for more pressure. The heat created
current of air and in less than half an hour
tle entire block of frame shacks was
enveloped in flames and burning, the
shingles and other debris filling the air,
igniting several adjacent blocks at the
same time. Opposite the block in which
the fire originated stood the Pacific hotel.
one of the hRndsomest structures in the
northwest. IL was soon ablsze and by
that time high wind came up from the
southwest, and il was evident that the en-
tire business portion OF the city was in
danger. Mayor Furth ordered that the
buildings be blown up with giant powder
to check the spread of the FIRE, and this
order was speedily put into execution and
the explosions added 10 the reign of terror.
The picture was weird, grand and awful
as block after block yielded to the flames.

Railroad avenue The IRE department
was soon on the scene, but owing to the
lack Of water the FIRE quickly spread TO
adjoining frame buildings and was soon
beyond control, the flames jumping across
the street 70 the Russ house aud the Pacific
hotel. By this time strong wind sprung
up, and it was evident the city was doomed.
The IRE spre ad with dreadful rapidity and
the iremen were pOwerless. Attempts
were made to check the IRE BY blowing
up buildings, but IL was useless. From
the Pacific hotel the fire Jumped across

next block and soon il reached the heart Of

across Howard and in . few minutes the
block between Howard and Stevens was
reduced 70 ashes The next to suceumb
was the large TuelI block and the solid
block Of four story brick, including the
postoffice, between Stevens and Washing
