stacked in large piles at Clowrey and

Marquette: Forest fires are giving
serious trouble. The depot, hotel, q
large store and several dwellings at
Sagola, village 35 miles north of Iron
Mountain on the Chicago, Minneapolis

about 81, 900 worth of shingles and ties.
The timber is very dry and the grass
burns like finder. Dense clouds Of
smoke hang over the hills and darken
the sun excepting at midday, even this
distance from the fire, but in its i'm

have not been seen for days. If heavy
rains do not soon fall the loss of prop

places even life is in imminent danger.
The numbering town Of Rubicon,

LYONS, June 25.-After M. Carnot
had been taken to the prefecture it be-
came generally known that his assas-
sin was an Italian and the feeling of
deep indignation among the crowd
found vent in the form of attacks upon
cafes kept by inoffensive natives Of
Italy. Three such places in the vicin-
ity Of the palace of commerce were
totally wrecked by the Infatuated mob.
French flags which were in abun-
dance were uthen procured by the
crowd. and with cries of Down with
the foreigners" "out with them"
hundreds of men and boys marched to
the Rue de la Barre, in which street
the Italian consulate is situated.

All over the city threats are made to
countrymen of Santo, and the authori.
ties fearing that attempts will be
made to put these threats into effect,
ordered bodies of cuirassiers to patrol
the city to prevent any outbreak.
Everywhere the troops are greeted

After the attacks upon the Italian
cafes, the disorderly element among
the crowds devoted their attention to
the Italians whom they found upon
the streets. Several of these men
pursued by the mob, barely
escaped with their lives The police,
who were extraordinarily vigilant, had
great difficulty in rescuing the hunted
men. The Rue de la Barre is now
barricaded at both ends and guarded
by troops.

scented himself at the door Of the pres

hand. This is the reason why the
police SLOWED him to approach. The
president of the department of Rhone,
as soon as the murder was known,
went to the theater and advised the
public to remain calm. The theater
was at once emptied. All the illum-
nations were extinguished. Men and
women in the streets wept and shouts
Of vengeance against the Italians were
heard from the crowd.
More than $4,000 people went to-
wards the Italian consulate, around
which the police, warned in time. had
massed. The crowd demanded that
the Italian flag and coat of arms
should be removed. Another part of
the crowd went to the Cafe Casati,
kept by an Italian, and in spite of the
presence of the troops sacked the
place and burnt all its contents
The wound received by NJ Carnot
was in the upper liver, which was
pierced through and through. From
the first the physicians believed that
the wounded man was lost. He was
transported on mattress and his
clothing was cut off him. In order to
facilitate the bleeding the breast was

SADI CARNOT KILLED.
PRESIDENT OF FRANCE AssAs-
sINATED AT LYONS.
Attacked In His Carriage and Stabbed
by an Itaiian-He Remains Conscious
Until Death - Utmost Excitsment
Throughout France

PARIS, June 25.-President Carnot
was stabbed last evening in Lyons and
died forty minutes past midnight As
the president was leaving the
banquet of the exposition at Lyons
at $3.50 o'clock in order to go to the
theater he was stabbed with knife
in the stomach in the region Of the
liver. The assassin was arrested and
was recognized as an Italian who had
arrived in Lyons yesterday afternoon.
He has refused to answer any ques-
lions until he is brought before the
judges The mans name Is Cesafe
Giovanni Santo.
The crowd that assembled as soon
as the assassination of the president
became known attacked and demol-
ished three italian cafes in Lyons 1t
was impossible. in spite of the inter
vention of the troops, to keep the
crowd in check. The condition of the
president was very alarming. The
physicians succeeded in checking the
hemorrhage but at II o'clock it broke
out again and the case became hope
less.
Mime. Carnot and her children left
for Lyons on special train at l
o'clock this morning. M. Dupuy, the
premier and president Of the council
of ministers, returned to Paris at
once The council is convened to
meet at 10 o'clock this morning.
The death of President Carnot will
cause a profound sensation through
out the entire country. Paris is quiet,
but tomorrow there will certainly be
great excitement Carnot was the
type of an honest bourgeois, and in
his unmerited and stupid death he will
be profoundly saluted by all his ad-
versaries. He did not merit such an end.
He may have committed faults against
parliamentary discipline, but he never
committed any against political
honesty. During his presidency he
had to struggle against serious diff
culties, and he always knew how to
act with moral dignity.
The fact that this assassination
has been committed on the anniver-
sary Of the battle of Solferino has
been much commented on.
The political situation is very sim
pie. Until the meeting Of congress,
which is composed of the senate and
cham Der of deputies, the president OF
the senate, Challemel Lacour, is presi-
dent of the republic ad interim. The
congress will probably meet Wednes-
day. Two candidates remain-M.
Casimir- Perier and NJ Charles Dupuy.
The election of the former is proba BILE.

given him by the crowd. The people
close to the carriage saw the man

his hand. BY the glare of the electric
lights they saw the bright blade CLEAN

scended, and then President Carnot
was seen to fall back in his seat, his
face deathly pale. One of his hands
was pressed over his heart, where the
steel had entered the body.

was seated beside M. Carnot, imme-
diately struck the assassin blow full
in the face and knocke d him from the
