HEMMED IN BY FIRE
BIC FOREST FIRES IN WISCONSIN
Many Lives Are Lost and Millions Of Dol
lars Worth nj Lumber snd Proper
~ Destroyed.

ASHLAND, Wis, Sept. I7.-This has
been an exciting day for Ashland. At
noon the people were called from wor.
ship by Are alarms. The cinders and
smoke became almost binding all over
the city. Over a thousand volunteers
were added to the IRE department TO
fight the flames. which rushed In on the
city from the Odanha Indian reserva-
tion. At o'clock there was 4 cry OF
despair among the people living near
the Milwaukee, Lake Shore 4 Western
railroad shops. The water works had
given out. The chemical engines we're
brought mp, but It was useless to try to
stop the flames A. high gale Of wind
was blowing. The coal sheds caught
FIRE and dead locomotives were fred mp
TO run all the rolling stock to the lake.
Household goods were burned and over
100 families are already homeless. Tweu-
ty men were overcome in fighting the
flames and were taken to the hospital
Three families near Marengo persisted.
There was no help to 60 to them. At
Parishvflle large iron plant il burn
ing. A large number of women and
children who rushed 10 the lake front
were only saved by desperate effort
with the patrol wagons.
The fire Is the same that has been
raging further south all week, and the
heaviest part did not reach here until
today Settlers arriving have pitifui
stories to tell, and are being cared for
by those who still have houses. A man
named Egstrom was driven crazy by the
loss of his wife and family of two chill
dren. His hair and eyelashes and
clothes were burned from his body when
discovered.
As near as can be estimated the fre
now covers nearly 200 square miles and
is sweeping north. The damage to
standing pine will be very heavy and
approximates not less than 5000 600.
A woman and baby, supposed to be the
wife of settler. were picked up in an
insensible condition tonight near the
White river road. The child died soon
after arriving here. The mother is de-
lirious and it is supposed her husband
persisted at the Odanha reservation.
Indians are camping on a raft in the Bad
river and are hemmed In with an arch
way of flames. All Communication Ii
cut OF from the surrounding small towns
today. II is impossible to give the de-
tails of today's disasters and losses, but
if rain does not come tonight the death
list will run up high.
There are a number of small towns
and villages throughout the burned sec
tion that may have shared in the disas-
ter, such as Marengo, White River, High
Bridge and numerous others. II the
path of the flames took in such settle
ments, woe and death will surely have
been left in the wake. Parishvilie,
which is reported on fire tonight, is com
posed of about 100 buildings in addition
to the big plants of the Parish Manu-
featuring Company, mining and sawmill
machinery. In Ashland itself there Is
no immediate danger of a general con-
iagration unless a Cyclone or whirl-
wind of fire should sweep the city OF
the face of the earth.

HAVE THE LAST POWW. OW.


Indians Near Latah.
SPOKANE, Sept. eo.-Once more the
opening of the Cour d'Alene reserva.
,ion has been delayed. All the papers
and notes of the survey have been re
ceived by the commissioner of the gen
eral land ofiice at Washington, but
nearly all the clerks in the examining
department, are away on special duty.
That is the Official statement made In 4
letter to W. e. Miller of this city, who
had charge of the survey,
How long the special duty will last is
not stated. After the clerks get back
to business 1t is believed the for NAL ex-
animation of the papers can be com
pleted in couple of days, as they have
already passed one Official examination.
The oficials of the Cuaur d'Alene land
office are still hoping that they will re.
ceive orders to advertise the opening of
the reservation before the end of this
month.
The Indians living on the reserva-
tion are also on the qui vive. Captain
Bubb and Agent Hartman are expected
to return this week and call the final
council to settle the old dispute about
the reloc alton of the Spokane Indians,
II Is expected that grand pow WOW
will be held within few miles of
Tekoa next Saturday and Sunday for
the final settlement of The question.

WnsoN WAS TOO QUICK.


a Prisoner Attempted to Oct Away
From the Deputy Marshal.
SPOKANE, Sept. Is.-Four pistol shots
in quick succession startled the wait
Ing passengers at the Northern Pacific
depot about five O'Clock yesterday morn
ing. The west bound train was very
late, and Deputy Marshal yinson sat up
all night watching the seven convicts
he was to take to McNeii's island.
About S o'clock couple of hacks were
filled with the prisoners and their
guards and started to meet the train.
One of the prisoners was Thomas
O'Brien. who will serve a year for sell
ling whisky to Indians.
Just as the hack reached the depot,
O'Brien, who sat near one of the guards,
jumped out and started down the track
for dear life and the marshal started
after him. Mr.. vinson fired couple of
shots In the air, but O'Brien only run
the faster. The next bullet came a lit
tie near, but he wouldn't take the hint
and kept running. Then vinson got
tired of 1t and sent a big 45-caliber
bullet through his coat sleeve. That
settled it. O'Brien didn't mind shoot
ing in the air, but he didn't propose TO
be shot at in earnest and dropped on
his knees with his hands over his head
In sign of surrender.
O'Brien is the man who tried to run
away when he was arrested about a
month ago. This is MI Wilson's sec
ond foot race with him and he has won
both times.
