Three Hundred Houses in Sagi-
nav, Mich, Burned.
PEOPLE ARE HOMELESS.
Factories Burned Throw Four Thous-
and Men Into IdIenesS.
Terrible Bush Fires Sweep over Eastern
Wisconsin and Northern Michigan
Two Small Villages Totally De-
stroyed-Other Disasters.

SAGINAW, Mich, May 2O.-Fire broke
out in the dismantlsd mill plant of Sample
d Camp on the docks where there were a
number of piles of lumber, this after
noon. In a twinkling the roaring mass
Of flames started on mad career with a
fury that no human hand could check.
The Bristol street bridge next caught fire
and was partly burned, thence the flames
leaped to the east side, where are located
q large number of buildings, including
Hose house No. 6. j. F. Winkler's ice
houses, eleven residences on Tiiden
street and on both sides of Washington
avenue down to Holden street were quickly
licked up. Then sparks We're carried into
the premises of the George f. Cross Lum-
Der company. The planning mill, lumber
yard, and dozen tenement houses melt
ing like snow.
Next came the Arlington & Curtis man
ufacturing company's extensive plant
and Passot's old soap factory, all of which
were wiped out. Here the fire struck JEFF
ferson avenue, and in an hour some OF
the finest residences in the city were in
ashes. The flames made a clean sweep
north to Emerson street, and continued
CdSLWdIQ along EuI6TSOH SlT6Gb bOWdfu
the city limits. 1t cut wide swath on
Owen, Howard, Sheridan and Warren
a7enues and other streets.
/ The East st. Vincent's Orphans home
succumbed early, but the inmates were
all removed TO places of safety. The
fury OF tire gale carried the sparks long
distances, and the planning mill, factory
and lumber yard OF e. Germin was de-
stroyed, as well as a large number Of
dwellings in that section of the city. The
excitement was at fever heat during the
awful two hours, from 4 to 6, and in
many instances houses caught fire and
were destroyed before the occupants were
hardly aware that they were in danger,
and dozens OF families saved practically
nothing.
1t is impossible to give correct &C.
count of losses and insurance tonight.
The former will reach nearly 81, 500, 600,
with probably an insurance of 500, 600.
Fully 1000 men employed in the factories
burned are thrown out of employment
and hundreds of families are homeless, as
about three hundred houses were burned.
John Clarke of Owen street was burned
to crisp and several other persons are
reported missing.

Resolutions of Coincidence and Sympathy
At the regular practice meeting of the
Salt Lake Tabernacle choir, on Friday
evening, May 10, it was resolved. by its
committee, that in the death of John
Saunders Lewis the organization had lost
q faithful, capable and an efficient worker
and one who from long years of association
had endeared himself to every member by
his affabie disposition, even temperament
and genial manner.
While the call was SO sudden as to be
almost startling IN its denouemeut, we
are proud to say we know of no one IN the
society better prepared for such an emer-
gency than he, and while we mourn with
his family we bow to the behests OF Zone
who doeth all things well.''
Like so many others of his countrymen
the soul OF Brother Lewis delighted in
Harmony. Inherent in his nature it had
been his theme from boyhood; and, next
TO the Gospel, had been his chief aim and
ambition in life. His own compositions
grace the pages of the Deseret Sunday
school song book, the l.. d. s. Psalmody
the Deseret Chorister and other publica-
lions at home as well as musical maya
zines abroad, and 1t is but Justice to the
deceased to bear record that tuueful and
appropriate music, of his own writing
formed the browning feature at the
funeral services.
Elder Lewis died suddenly, OF heart
failure, while sitting in an easy chair
listening to a favorite stanza which he
had just requested his daughter to play
for him. How eminently proper that
such spirit should be waited hence to
organ accompaniment!
Now, therefore, be it resolved that in
the death of Bro. Lewis, his wife and
children have sustained the loss of an
affectionate husband and an idolized
father, the church faithful and consist
ent Latter-day Saint and the choir a
painstaking and competent member;
while the crowded condition at the OBJ
sequies betokened the high esteem in
which he was held by his friends and
neighbors.
Be it further resolved that these resolu-
ltions be furnished the press for publica-
ton, ana suitable copy sent TO the be-
reaved family. EVAN STEPHENS,

ston the Tourists.

THE HERALD recently called the atten-
tion OF the chamber of commerce to the
fact that thousands of tourists are pass
ing through this city and no effort being
made to induce them to stop over and en-
JOY the many attractions presented by
Salt Lake city. 1t seems that the
railway companies are determined 20
rush them through. against their pro-
test, and strong effort should be made
10 effect a change in this policy. On
Friday party Of twenty-five Australians
passed through the city on their way
around the world. They purchased their
tickets IN Australia, over the Burlington
route, with the understanding that they
would be permitted to stop oil at Salt
Lake and Denver. It was not until they
arrived at Ogden that they learned that
no stop-over would be granted on their
tickets, and they raised mighty protest,
but they were carried through.

REAL ESTATE EXCHANGE.

Brisk Calls ut Yesterdays Session = The
Exchange Growing.
The Real Estate exchange has suddenly
picked up its ears and begins to show
signs Of endurance that is surprising.
Few people believe in resurrections, but
the exchange is certainly an example at
hand.
Several of the calls yesterday were just
as brisk as those OF the good old days and
the members, instead of lamenting their
fate, are up and doing.
One of the members at Yesterdays
session reported that he had secured
seventeen new names for membership,
and that four banks had subscri bed SIS
each.
This excellent showing was very en-
couraging compared with the lack of in
terest that had recently prevailed.

Roper Street,
Brisk Calls at the Real Estate Exchange
The Exchange in FIourishinS
ondition-Business Notes.

The real estate market during the past
week has been somewhat strengthened
by numerous large sales and the many
new building projects that were made
public.
Any person who cares to satisfy himself
SIS to the extent of the building operations
during the past year has only to look
south from the north or east bench and
behold the new city that has sprung up
below Roper street.
Two years ago Roper street was the
south limit Of the building area of the
city. But this has been changed until
there is city Of 5000 or 10000 in
habitants living on what was lucern
ground.

Newton correspondence Logan Journal:
Bad luck has come to us once more. The
fune in our reservoir has broken and the
water is pouring out so fast that in an
other week it will be emptied. This will
leave us almost without water for irriga-
tioa this season as it will be too late to
gather new supply after repairs are
done, and we only have claim on one
fourth of the running water from the
Charleston mountains, which is but a
small stream in summer. But we hope
that loving Providence will send us
copious rains to help our crops along.
