FLEEING FROM FOREST FIRES
Many Families in Wisconsin Driven Out
by the Flames.


MARsHFIELD, Wis, Sept. 16.-rhis city
is in panic on account of forest fires
Many families in the surrounding dis
tricts have been burned out, and children
are reported missing, but no loss of life
has been reported Yesterday the forest
fires assumed such proportions that por-
tions of the town were in danger. The
fire department was out till late at night
fighting fires inside the limits. Farmers
from the surrounding country came in
wagon loads for refuge in the city, many
having been burned out completely. The
surrounding towns are laid waste and
smoke fills the air, binding every one.
The Wisconsin Central trains are aban-
doned and north of here are running over
the Omaha road.
The loss of life, as far as can be ascer-
tained at this writing is confined to the
deaths of the two children of Frank Kadil,
who are reported to have been suffocated.
Mcmillan is surrounded by fire, but it is
believed it can be saved. Persons who
have returned from the burned districts
report that all along the road are seen the
carcasses of burnt animals The wind.
which abated during the night, is again
rising. AS far as heard from between
forty and fifty families are homeless in
this vicinity.

Some Of the Rescued Ones May Die

MADRID, Sept 16-The town of Villa
Canas, in the province of Toledo has been
devastated by floods, and large number
of lives have been lost. Heavy rains have
fallen in the province, and the town,
which Is situated on low ground, was in
undated. When most of the inhabitants
were in bed the waters from the hills,
where there had probably been a cloud
burst, swept down on the town, carrying
away almost everything in its path. Huge
trees that had been torn bodily from the
ground swept along on the crest OF the
rushing waters, and were hurled against
the houses in their path. The trees acted
as battering rams, and carried houses be-
fore them.
So sudden was the catastrophe that the
people had no chance of saving themselves
Men and women awakened from sound
sleep by the tottering of their dwellings,
| frantically rushed to the windows and
| leaped out, only to be engulphed in the
water that was now Kissing and seething
| about the fallen houses Other houses
that escaped being demolished by the
| floating debris were rapidly undermined
| by the waters, and in many cases collapsed
| before their occupants could leave them.

means of escape to persons who would
otherwise have been drowned. Many men,

The bodies have been found of several

efforts to save themselves and their chill.
dren. In one place young woman was
found with an infant clasped to her breast
with one hand, while with the other hand
she held the hand of little boy. All were
dead, and there was not a mark upon then
to show how death had come to them.
1t is known that sixty persons were
drowned, and it is believed that the bodies
of many others are buried under the ruin,
of their homes.
Many of the deaths were caused by tht
flooding of the cave dwellings on the out
skirts of the town. These dwellings arr
holes dug into the hillside almost on
level with the plain. They are occupied
by the poorest families. The lower cave
were filed at the first rising of the flood
and the occupants were drowned befor
they had time for an effort to escape
Other caves were but half filed, and tn
families in them still await rescue. Th
entrances to many caves have been block
