Smoke From Forest Fires Hangs Over Lake
Superior Driving Loggers I'm.
DULUTH, Mimi, Aug. 90 Word has
been received from Hibbing that very
extensive forest fires were driving into
town the logging and mining operators
near there. A crew Of over 100 men ar
rived there from one logging camp ON
the Wright 81 Davis operations, their
camps having been burned, and as well
over l,500, 600 feet Of logs that had been
skidded and were ready to be hauled to
the river. The fires are burning iiercely
in old choppings, and IL the winds
should change would do great damage
in timber yet uninjured or to the town.
Hibbing, though village Of one year,
has fairly good water system. The
smoke from fires in this vicinity and
Northern Michigan have been 30 dense
here that fog signals have been blown
continuously for week. and naviga-
ton at this end Of Lake Superior is
very much hindered.

crazed Engineers.

Insanity is very frequent among rail-
way employees. Two dramatic illustra-
tions can be mentioned. There is living
In New Jersey, not far from Philadel-
phia, man who for many years was
the foremost passenger engineer between
New York and Philadelphia ON the
Pennsylvania railroad. He ran all the
specials and best trains, and in 10 years
never had an accident One night in
the gleam Of the headlight he saw q
woman. He had only time to see her
hands raised and to hear her cry, and
before he could put his hand upon the
lever he felt a jerk under the wheels
and knew that all was over. Since that
night he has never been on am engine.
For months he did not sleep and later
became practically insane, but only on
the one point of seeing and hearing the
woman his engine killed. Now he goes
about harmlessly and aimlessly, but he
has to be kept away from railroads, and
IN his fretful sleep he awakes with cries
and paroxysms Of horror. The other
case is that of man who was conductor
OF train ON the Camden and Amboy,
whose train had an accident He came
out all right himself, but it preyed so
upon his mind that one night he left his
home, and going to the point where the
accident occurred threw himself in
front of a passing train, receiving in
juries from which he died. .-Philadel-

Cleveland has written letter to Rep
resentative Catchings of Mississippi, in
which he gives his reasons for withhold

of the matter discussed.
Mr.. Cleveland disapproves q large

better tan no legislation at all ON the
tariff. In conclusion he says:
The millions OF our countrymen who
have fought bravely and well for tariff
reform should be exhorted 10 continue
the struggle boldly, challenging to open
warfare and constantly guarding
against treachery and hal4-heartedness
in their camp.
Tariff reform win not be settled until
it is honestly and fairly settled in the

her people and for which the govern

diplomacy for many years. News has
been received here by the diplomatic
corps that q new treaty has Just been

of extra territorial jurisdiction by the
latter 10 abandoned. Negotiations look

The Importance OF Great Britain's ac-

fact that IL u really the recognition Of

with $4,000. After Sax Weeks Liberty.
CHICAGO, Aug. 29.--Joe Harris, the
bank thief, whose record extends across
the continent, was arrested ON Clark
street and locked mp at the Central
station. a friend OF Joe's was also
taken at the same time, and ON being
searched, the pair had several thousand
dollars in their possession. Harris was
|4aultlessly attired. On being told that
the chief wanted TO see him at head
quarters. he reluctantly accompanied
the officers to the city hall, where. after
being relieved Of his money, he was
taken down stairs. His companion
suffered similar treatment. The officials
at the city hall win endeavor to ascer-
tain where the men got 30 rauch money.
The money consisted Of gold and cur
rency, and the amount approximated
%, 900.
An Artist In His Line.
As an expert bank robber, Joe Harris
has no equal. He has taken chances
that would make the ordinary bank
crook quail, and, owing to bis nerve, he
is looked upon by the police as q dan
gerous man. His home is I'm this city.
His brother is engaged in the liquor
business, and years ago Joe made the
saloon his headquarters, while not en-
gagged in his own line Of business. He
never did any wholesale robbing In Chi
cago, bat outside towns were made 10
suffer. He first became prominent
when he entered the First National
bank In Detroit and got away with $ls.-
600, and for which he served term In
the penitentiary. Next he held up two
women and relieved them OF some
diamonds, serving one year therefor.
Tried Minneapolis.
Chicago was made too warm for him.
He showed disposition to shoot, 30 he
was given "a hours to leave that city.
Minneapolis was the next city that
sheltered Joe. He was not long In. the
place before the Bank of Minneapolis
was robbed. About two years ago Har-
ris entered the bank while the cashier
was busy. The catch ON the wire door
which separates the vaults from the
street was deftly lifted, and In an in
slant Harris was in the midst Of the
banks valuables. He helped himself.
On leaving, however, he was discovered.
Had $4,000 In His EEanas.
BE had $40, 600 In his possession, and
he made desperate effort TO escape.
He reached the street and &c onoe Dart
