TERRIBLE FIRES.
The Latest Intelligence from the
Mesaba Range.
Fully 3, $500 People Are Homeless and Dee
titute-The Monetary Loss Will
Reach Nearly . 4, 100000.

DULUTH, June 2O.-The first accurate
news of the fires on the Mesaba range
was available this morning. The only
communication with the range towns
has been over single wire and that
working badly. Press dispatches filed
by the special correspondents who
were sent with the first relief train did
not arrive until late last night, and
then only little in advance of the
newspaper men. Accurate news shows
the usual exaggeration in the first re-
ports, but the money loss will be great
er than was estimated. The first stories
regarding Mountain Iron and Biwabik
were true. At Biwabik only few de-
tached buildings were burned and at
Mountain Iron only six buildings. At
VirginiaAthe situation is as serious as
reported. The entire business portion
of the town is destroyed. About 80
houses are standing and $40 were
burned. Merritt is nearly wiped out,
only Is buildings now remaining in the
town. 1t was impossible to reach ner-
rift yesterday, as the woods were still
burning all about the village. It was
the only town the newspaper men were
not able to visit and see the exact stu
alton for themselves.
The situation of the sufferers at Vir-
ginia is particularly unfortunate. Most
of them are without shelter. Clothing
is scarce and food, despite the supplies
that have been sent from Duluth, is
still scanty.
The total loss, as now estimated by
those best qualified to know, is put at
| 81, 500, 900. The insurance, as nearly as
can be estimated, is about 100000.
Fires are burning all along the range
still and change of wind will cause
more damage, but the danger is not i'm
minent.
The mining companies suffered heav-
lilv. The camps at the following mines
were either partially or wholly de-
S royed: Shaw, Commodore, Franklin,
Jones, Mesaba, Mountain, Ohio and
New England.
It is fairly we'll established now that
no lives were lost as the result of the
fires. The stories current cannot be
c ,nfirmed and the reporters who were
on the range say there are no authenti-
Gated losses of life.
