Miraculous Esczps of Mother and
Children From Fire.
New YORK, Sept. 4.-Ten thousand
frantic people early this morning saw
two children dropped from a icur-story
window to save them from flames which
were leaping for them on four sides.
The children were caught and were
none the worse for their quick trip. The
mother was rescued just in time by the
fremen.
The fire was in tenement house on
Filty-third street. Mrs. Julia Donohue
and her two children-Julia, 4 years
old, and Hubert, 2 years old-wers
asleep in their rooms on the fourth floor.
They were not aroused until the flames
had cut off all escape, cave by the win
dow. Ia the meantime the thousands
of people who had gathered in the
streets made it almost impossible for
the firemen to break through with their
apparatus. When Mrs. Donohue reached
the window che saw that it would take
almost miracle for the tiremen to raise
their ladders in time to save her chill
dren. Below an awning was down, and
she took the chances of dropping her
little ones upon this. Giving each what
she thought would be her last kiss, she
dropped fret Julia and then Hubert.
The awning was strong enough to stand
the strain, and as the children rolled off
they were caught by those whose hearts
had almost stopped beating when they
dropped.
Just as the flames broke into the
room in which Mrs. Donohue was. the
ladder was raised and she was taken to
the ground.

REFUGE IN WELLS.

Many Fire Sufferers suffocated Where n
Few Were Saved.
MINNEAPoLIs, Sept. A Duluth spe-
cial to the Journal says:
Oliver Dubois. q French Canadian
farmer, living on the outskirts of the
little village Of Sandstone, was among
the refugees from that stricken spot.
He saved his life by jumping to the
bottom of dry we'll and was one OF the
very few who took such refuge anc did
not find it a grave already dug. His
experience in many ways was similar to
that OF scores and hundreds Of others. but
it shows the fearful speed OF the flames.
Mr.. Dubois was little distance from his
home when he heard in the south a
mighty roaring and thought a cyclone
was coming. The blackness of the sky
convinced him of this, and he ran still
farther from the building to escape any
flying sticks that might come from the
house. He threw himself down at the
foot OF stump, his head under q root.
Scarcely was he on the ground before
the awful heat and fire showed him that
he contended not with cyclone but
with flames.
There was a we'll few feet away
into which he jumped. 1t was ~ feet
deep and was dry. Above him he
could see the rolling cloud OF hames,
high in the air, and then down close to
the ground. His position grew sitting,
and the air seemed to be so exhausted
that he could only breathe by clawing
hole in the damp earth and pressing his
face to the side. AS soon as one place
got too sitting he would make another
little fresh spot. The we'll filled with
smoke and gas, but after time that
seemed hours. but WAS probably about
80 minutes, he managed to climb out.
~ was so weak could hardly walk"
he said, land for few minutes | was

were shoes a little distance away. l

the smoke, but CROPPED my way to
those shoes, losing my way once
and feeling every step. 1 found them

Several men have been found in wells
in the noighborhood of Sandstone, dead.

THE CRY FOR RELIEF.

A Noble Response by tn Good People
of Pine City.
PINE CRY, Mimi, Sept. $50 thor
oughly have all the arrangements been
made for the relief OF the sufferers
around Hinckley that everything moves
along without hitch. The people of
this little village have responded nobly
to the cry for reliefthat came from their
suffering neighbors. Provisions, cloth.
ing, bedding and other supplies we're
poured in from all parts OF the state and
from here to the place where most
needed. The regulars from Fort SMELL
ing have been of great help. Crowds of
curious are going over the grounds, look
ing for relics OF the horrible disaster,
and systematic search parties are look.
ing for more bodies in the woods. Cen
eral Bunker represents the governor in
relief measures. All the injured have
been brought to the hospital and the
supplies were turned over to the medical
men in charge, go there was no delay in
caring for the injured. Every hall and
public building of any sort was used as
a hospital and the people seemed to
know no weariness in their eagerness to
relieve the suffering survivors. The
heat was so intense that the eyeballs
nearly snriveled and nearly every person
who passed through the fire is wearing
lmoked glasses, or else is unable to see
ct all.
Relief trains came up on the Duluth
road from st. Paul at frequent intervals,
and at every station people were ready
with supplies. which were brought to
this city for distribution. The appoint

ernor to look after general relief meas
ures has met with general comm menda-
tion.
Word from White Bear that the lin.
ited train engineer, James Root, would
recover caused general rejoicing.
Thomas Dunn and family of three
were buried today. Dunn was the hero.
ic telegraphic operator who loet his life
because he remained at his post until
the station was on fire. He sent an
order for the train to return and take
those on who wanted to escape. The
train carried away over 800 people from
she FIRE. Dunn then jumped from the
window and started for the gravel nit
where so many saved their lives. Dunn
was within five rods OF the pit when he
fell and was unable to get further. Every
other person one meets in Pine City
today gives visible evidence, in blood
shot eyes and burned noses and cheeks,
of conflict with she fire. Some are
thinly clad. There are 80 tents, and
each housed four or five people last
night.
In the hospital last night Mrs. Thomas
Henderson sat woe-begone, while M. A.
Greenfield, who is badly burned, told
her the sad fate OF her boys, IA and 16
years OF age. The boys, with their
father, were cutting road from the

The Omaha road has reports from
Washburn that the fires have been
confined thus far to the outskirts Of the
city, and only few lumber mills and
yards on the edge of town have been
destroyed. A heavy wind would quickly
fan the flames and carry them through
the country and possibly into town.
Train service on all the lines between
st. Paul and Duluth has been restored,
except on the Eastern Minnesota. The

CHICAGO, Sept. 4,-Attorney-Gener
Maloney has served notice on counsel
for the Pullman company that he will
appear before Judge Gibbons in the
criminal court tomorrow afternoon and
ask to file amended petition, and also in
formation against the company which
follows the petition, according to the
law governing quo-warranto proceed
ings.
The main additional charges made in
the amended petition are in relation to
the Pullman company, without charteY
authority, operating gas plant anG
brick works. The court ia also told
that the Pullman company realized
large profit by selling water to
the Pullman residents. Ths COM
psny also, it is said. supplies a steam
heat to many of the business housea
and apartment houses for pecuniary
profit. The maintenance OF a truck
farm" by the company is charged, and
this the court is told cannot be covered
by charter to manufacture railroad
cars. The sale of liquors by the
Pullman company in its cars
while in transit is also deemed by the
petitioner to be q direct violation OF its
charter rights. The ownership OF IL
acres of unoccupied land, south Of Lake

however. Is immense. and in many
localities total loss can emily be averted

There is considerable evidence that
many fires were set by men who knew
the scorched pine would have to be cut
at once, thus giving them work. The
