CHICAGO, July z7.-At a meeting Of the
Trans-Continental association a further
endeavOr was made 10 compromise the diff

The Southern Pacific announced as its
ultimatum that it would accept no COM
promise whatever and would only rescind
its notice OF withdrawal from the sssocia-
ton upon a waiver of all differential claims
by the Canadian Pacific. IL is not believed
the Canadian Pacific will accede to these

four or five directions from Deer lodge
valley. There are fires in the northwest
aud west. The woods to the east of town,
on Cottonwood, are burning. The valley
is dense with smoke. 1t is no ordinary
smoke, such as we have pretty near every
year, but il is q smoke that you can taste,
smell, feel and almost handle. The sun is
almost Obscured and has the appearance of
an eclipse. What has caused these
fires is not yet known, but
whatever the cause an immense
amount of timber will be destroyed.
The secretary of the Gospel Mountain Min
ing company informed your correspondent
that he has shipped an extra 100 feet of
hose to protect the hosting works and
other property of the company from the

danger to the property from flying fires as

PHILIrsBuRe, July 27.-ISpecial to the
independent l-For the past two or three
days the sky around Philipsburg has been
filled with smoke and but little attention
was paid 10 il at first. as such has often
been the case before, only to much
smaller extent. To-day it has absolutely
become uncomfortable, so dense has il be-
come. The fire started in the vicinity OF
Black Pine about a week ago, and little at
tention was paid to it for day or two.
The high winds that prevailed during the
week famed the flames into immense pro-
portions until to day it is impossible to do
anything with il. lt passed from the sec
ton around Black Pine down the Flint
creek valley and has been working
its way towards PhIlipsburg. 1t
has now turned mp Henderson guleh,
where il is now the worst Grave fears are
entertained Of its reaching Granite, as the
gulches are heavily timbered and every
thing Is Of course as dry as tinder- AT
Black Pine the Combination company have
closed down their mine and mill and all of
the men, probably numbering 100. have
been turned out and are fighting the flames
and cutting away the timber and brush in
the vicinity 10 prevent the fire reaching the
hosting works and mill. The whole Of
Flint creek valley is densely covered with
smoke and the people on the ranches are
getting alarmed. Many are talking of
getting away until it is over The smoke
is getting so thick as to affect the eyes. In
Drummond houses had TO be lighted
up at $50 o'clock, so dark
had il become. Clnders are flying
all around. No fears are entertained
of it reaching Philips urg as the timber is
all cut away near town. The fire will
probably follow up the gulches leading
higher up into the mountains toward
Granite. At Rumsey there was small
fire under headway which was put out yes
tarday. They are now clearing away
timber and brush from the vicinity of the
immense mills there to save them, prOvid-
ing the fire reaches Granite and follows
the range over to Rumsey. The damage
done so far has been confined to the timber.
No houses or anything of the kind have
been destroyed. 1t is impossible to esti-
mate the amount of timber destroyed
