The Prosecution Still Continues Its Examina-
ton of Witnesses.
CGUR D. ALENE, Ida, Sept. 90 Special
telegram to The HERALD. The part of
the testimony brought out by the prosecu-
ton today has been to further connect the
defendants on trial with the conspir
acy against the Bunker Hill property. The
first witnesses, Thomas Fernett. jerome
Day, William Linney. James Lepoint, G.
*. Potet, a. j. FRASER, Evan Thomas and
F. Z. Holmes, testified to seeing Defend
ants Trainor, Sinclair, Devine and Murphy
at Wardner, with other armed men, on
July II and 49, Captain Herman, the last
witness before adjournment this morning,
testified at length to transactions at Wal
lace and Gem, particularly about the turn
ing over to himself and the other mem bers
OF COMMITTEES CT the guns belonging to the
Gem mill guards. Upon cross-examination
he gave favorable testimony as to Defend
ant Bushnell's connection with this trans
action.
Mr.. Ed Kinney testified to the making Of
the agreement of the Gem mine and went
at length into the surrender of said prop
erty, giving important testimony both in
his direct and cross examination in Attor-
ney Bushnelps behalf.
The first breezy Incident OF the day
came when Defendant Bushnell arose and
defended the propriety of certain aues
tion asked Witness Kinney, as proper
cross-examination. This brought out
lengthy argument between Attorney Hey
burn and Mr.. bushnell, in his own behalf.
The court decided in favor OF Mr.. Bush
nell, and directed the witness to answer
the question.
The last witness of the day was Deputy
Marshal Harvey Harris, His examination
was constantly interrupted by legal tits
between Messrs. Reddy and Hepburn.
The witness himself added to the general
hilarity by inexpressibly funny and orig
inal replies, one of which deserves to be
embalmed for further use. Mr.. Reddy
asked whether Pettibone scared very high
when the Frisco mill was blown up, 10
which witness replied: "Pettibone did
not soar much then; he got sore the next
day."
It now looks as II the prosecution will
be ready to rest its case by Friday.

A Summer Resort Completely

Rockaway Beach, L. l. the Scene of Disas-

Hundred Buildings Burned.

RoCKAwAY BEACH, N. Y, Sept. 20.-The
largest conf1agratiou ever on Long Island
coast destroyed over hundred frame build
ings here and left 16O acres mass of ruins.
The main portion of the old summer resort
is completely wiped out.
The fire broke out at about II 20 this af-
ternoon in the Seaside museum. High
winds carried the flames across Seaside av-
enue, and within five minutes after the
flames broke through the roof Of the mu-
scum, the fire was roaring on both sides
OF the avenue and famed by the wind, be-
gan eating its way in all directions In
quick succession the flames attacked the
hotels along the beach and along both sides
OF Seaside avenue Among the principal
buildings burned are Collins hotel, Brand
Ocean Hotel, New Y ork hotel, Peterson 81
Barry's hotel, Columbus hotel. Roach's
hotel and annex, Wainwright & Smiths
hotel and pavilion, Burcheii's grocery
store, simpsons hotel, Kruss &
Peterson's pool room and Globe
hotel fire tower, electric light station,
Garrison's hotel and on the beach the
Hotel Stuttgart, Ocean House, Columbia,
Schuber's hotel Mosrison's hotel, Grand
Republic hotel, Meissner's hotel, shooting
kdllSry duu CdfOuS1ai, oeaEuSH'S uOtei,
Hotel Albermarle ana st. James on the
boulevard. Besides these buildings, all Of
large size. e host of smaller buildings, oc-
cupied by drug s,ores, cirgar stores, ice
cream and candy stores, shooting galleries
and sucn class, were destroyed. With
them went merry go rounds, ceroussals,
toooggan slides and many similar devices
slwas found at seaside resort.
In vain the few residents of the beach,
aided by boatmen,
BATTLED WITH THE FLAMES.
Their efforts were thrown away Aid was
summoned, but on arriving it made but
little difference.
ABOUT $3.50 pm. the flames, after having
practically burned themselves out for want
OF immediate material upon which to feed,
were brought under control, but the fire is
still burning brightly at midnight in the
center of the burned district.
How the flames started is unknown.
Mrs. Phillips, employed in the museum, is
the only person known to have lost her
life in the confiagration. A number of
persons received burns and other injuries
while fighting the fames.
| 1t is impossible tonight even tc approx
mate)y estimate the amount of losses. BY
some it is estimated at over two million
dollars. while others do not believe the
total will amount to one quarter that
amount There is a vast, undesirable
crowd, consisting principally of ghouls,
who are reaping rich harvest from the
| misfortunes of the burned out people. 1t
is said the insurance POLICIES will not more
than half cover the losses.
