YOUNGSTOWN, o., July 26.-After o
tie-up lasting several weeks, owing to a

islapd.. writes referring to the reported
loss or the Wellman party and their
steamer, that he has learned from Spite
bergen that the Ragnvald- Jarl, the YES
kal which was used to convey the explor.
ers to the edge of the ice pack. was an
old whafer which had been fitted up as
q steamer, and that she was in no way
fitted to encounter the ice. Mr.. Fielden
adds that he is led to the belief that in
whole Of Wellman's company there
was no one possessed Of prac.
teal experience in polar ex.
plorations. A representative of the
Associated Press had an interview with
Carl Siewers, the Norgegian enthusiast
in Polar matters, regarding his letter to
The Standard, announcing that he was
in receipt of advices from Norway
which left little doubt that the Wellman
arctic expedition was lost.
Only Two Were Scientific
Mr.. Siewers showed bundle of letters
received on Monday last from the arctic
sealers who had returned to Norway,
from the extreme northern waters. The
writers said that they were convinced
that not only We're all of the members Of
the Wellman expedition lost, but that
Captain Nansen's ship was also crushed
in the ice.
Mr.. Siewers believes that the Peary
party will return in September after
having sailed an open polar. sea. Peary's,
and Jackson's expeditions, Mr.. Siewers
declares, We're. the only ones of all of
those out that were scientifically
planned.

Hot and Dry Weather Doing Great INJURY
In Minnesota.
ST. PAUL, July 2G.-The Minnesota
weather crop bulletin to July 81 follows:
Showery conditions prevailed in the
northern part of the state on Wednes-
day. the central portions on Thursday
and in the southern part or Friday. The
rainfall was everywhere insufficient to
break the drought conditions now exist
ing, which have therefore become in
tensified in nearly all sections Of the
state. Irreparable injury to the corn
and potato crop is threatened unless
the needed rains soon come. These
crops generally have so far withstood
the dry spell wonderfully well, but now
they have reached critical point where
each day lessons their recuperative
powers. The dry spell has been aug
mented by the almost total absence of
the heavy dews generally so prevalent
during the growing season. The tenn
perature was higher than usual every
day during the week, except on Friday
and Saturday, when it was slightly
cooler.

which are tho more interesting ON &C.
count Of their comparative rarity, the,
victim has been q person. addicted to;the'
immoderate use of spitiAaous liquors,
either as beverage or In the form Of q
bath. Little by little all the water and
other liquids Of the body are replaced by
alcohol, and then all that is necessary
to cause a catastrophe is to find some
means Of applying fame totha spiritous,
gases which are escaping FROM every
pore. Occasionally the breath of the
poor victim is fired while lighting *
pipe OF a cigar, or 1t may be that a
fame comes in contact with and lights
the alcoholic yapors which are escaping
from some other PORTION Of the body.
When once the fire la applied, a blush
flame extends very rapidly to ALI parts
OF the body, leaving 1t q shapeless mass
Of charred flesh and ca1cined bones. In
many instances attempts have been
made to extinguish the flames with wa
ter. but always without success When
the affected parts Of the victim are
touched, fatty matter attaches itself to
the finger, still continuing to burn and
giving off q very disagreeable edor,
something similar to. that which arises
from burning a mixture Of horn, hair
and wool
During all this time thick black
smoke arises from the body and attaches
itself to tho surface of all objects with
which it comes in contact, the "sets

unbearablo fetor. In the majority of
such cases combustion is only arrested
when the flesh has been reduced to
cracklings and the bone to powder.
Vincent, in his "Curiosities Respecting

portion of the head are not burned, but
usually when the combustion is finished
it is difficult to- believe that the inciner-
ated mass is all that is left Of a human

Not since the big FIRE in the patent
office many years ago, has the fire de-
partment of the district had to cope
with SO fierce confiagration. All its
appliances were brought into action, but
all efforts were unavailing to save the
property from destruction. Five brave
fremen were crushed under the falling
walls. Four men were injured by fall
ing walls and timbers, and these were
promptly removed to the Emergency
hospital for treatment. Three of the
firemen lost their lives.
Over 200 heavy draught horses, nearly
all of the company's express wagons,
and the contents of the large storage
building were burned. The Adams Ex-
press Company's stables adjoining the
Knox building to the north, were al
most entirely consumed.
About 100 horses were in the Adams
stables, but all were removed by the
hardest kind of work on the part of citi-
Gems and policemen.
Eight 2-story houses On the alley north
of the Knox building, and two small
frame houses back Of the Adams stable
were destroyed. Six or eight other res
