THE FIRES ALL SUBDUEO.

KANSAS CITY, Mo, March 25.-Dis-
patches from Rocks and Lincoln counties,
which were swept by fire last Sunday and
Monday, state that the fires have been
subdued The wind yesterday evening
veered from the southeast to the north
west, and drove the flames back towards
the ground already burned over where
they had nothing to feed upon. The total
number Of farms included IN the
IRE were about tifty-twO, and the
number Of barns and sheds about
the same. An unusual feature OF the fires
is found in the fact that not a single human
life was lost. so far as reported The loss to
the live stock was not very heavy but great
quantities OF farm produce such as grains
il stores, hay, etc, were destroyed. The
total loss is estimated AT a quarter Of a
million dollars. Some Of the fires extend
over areas of twenty miles square and IN
these places their only relief from the
black mOnOt0ny Of the devastated country
is an occasional green wheat field.
The growing wheat is reported to
have escaped all damage from the
fires Most Of the houses and barns de
strOyed were of the dugOUt character and
the less on them Is not severe. Reports
from along the Missouri Pacific line where
most Of the fires occurred are TO the effect
that the farmers are already rebuilding
their houses.

appeared to be in the least hurt and the
deputy sheriff was doubtful whether TO
take the principals into custody or not.
He finally made them accompany him to

McGraw's residence and laid the facts be-
fore that official, telling the latter that
neither was at all injured and that
the contest had been orderly in the ex-

men should appear before a justice today
and explain their position. Peter Burns
put up $50 each for their appearance.

Likely to Disband Unless It Receives
Immediate Financial Aid.

New YORK. Dec. 10.-The annual meet
ing of the National Association of Trot-
ting-Horse Breeders was held this after
noon. Some changes were made in the
rules. In the general discussion it was
agreed that the association does not receive
the support necessary to keep
it alive, and J. C. Sibleys speaking on the
subject, said that unless vigorous measures
were taken, the association might as well
disband. The outcome of the discussion
was the appointment of a committee to
prepare an address to the trotters of the
country, asking cooperation.
The subject of stakes provoked discus
sion, and the standard stakes were referred
back to the executive committee to perfect.
1t was decided that a stake of $4,000 be
spent for foals of 1891, to be trotted in 1894:
also four other stakes for different classes
of horses, three of them for So, 900 each and
one for $500.

The Lottery City's Grand Jury Does
Not Attack.


a. Not Attack.
SAN Francisco, Dec. 10.-[Special. THE
report of the New Orleans grand Jury on
prizehghting has created much specuIa-
ton among local sports as to whether the
Dempsey -FitZsimmons fight will be
stopped. Quite delegation of sports in
this city have arranged to visit New Or
leans to see the fight, and since the above
mentioned report was received they have
been very anxious to know how the
Olympic Club of New Orleans stood on the
question of fighting. The grand jury
called the attention of the authorities to
prizeEghting more to suppress fights in
third-rate clubs and saloons than to inter-
fere with the Olympic Club, which is
popular organization in New Orleans.
Several local sports have nevertheless
telegraphed to New Orleans and have re-
ceived by wire assurance that Dempsey
and Fitzsimmons would not be interfered
with. President Peterson, of the Olympic
Club, has written letter stating that there
will be no interference. President Peter
son also bears out the statement that the
object of the authorities is to rid New Or
leans of loafers and third-rate fighters,
who have been congregating there in large
nun berS.
