received which indicated any serious
danger.
Up to this time the range towns had
fought the fire for themselves, and had,
so far as possible, kept the news OF
their danger from reaching the outside
world for fear their prospects might be
injured. On Saturday General Nam
ager Philben of the Mesaba road re-
ceived advices which convinced him
that the danger was imminent, and he
went to Virginia to look after the in
terest of his road, which touches most
of the mining towns. The fire Mt this
time was all about the village, but
there was every reason to believe that
it could be kept under control
Yesterday morning a strong wind
blew and the range was doomed. The
first news came from General Manager
Philben, who telegraphed at o'clock
to President Merritt of the road: "Men,
women and children loaded on ore
cars ready to leave. For Gods sake
send us aid"
At nearly the same time messages
were received from other range COwnS.
The operator at Mountain Iron tele-
graphed that the town was burning,
and the operator at Biwabic wired to
President Greatsing, of the Duluth
road: Goods removed from depot.
Goodbye" Since that time the wires
to Biwabic have been down.
The Mesaba officials state their adj
vices are that Biwabic has been saved,
