FOREST CITY, Pa. May 15,-At 3:15
this afternoon, after the mine opera
tions had ceased for the days work at
No. shaft Of the Hillside Coal and
Iron company, disastrous fire occurred
at the top OF the shaft which was
surrounded by q fan house, engine
room and boiler room The fire was
discovered at the fan house, where it is
thought spark from the small loco
motives set it on fire.
In short time the flames had spread

engine room, in which were situated
pair Of hoisting engines and two
Thompson 81 Houston inCandeic cent
electric generators which supplied the
currents for haulage purposes in No. 2
shaft and the Forest city slope. A
handsome swtcn-boar was also in
this room.
The generators and switch board
were destroyed and the engines badly
damaged. The fumes spread rapidly, as
II very high wind was blowing. and en-.
veloped the boiler house which nearly
adj,inrd the engine room. In this
boiler room were the large boilers, all
of which We're destroyed.
The fan house which was destroyed
supplied the current OF mir for the
slope which will necesstate the idle
ness of that place for short time,
while arrangements will be perfected
for the carrying Of air to the slope
from the No. shaft fan house which
was about ten rolls from the burning
buildings and Which escaped the flame.

Mr.. HOWE TELLS HOW IT WAS.
This hot Spell Caused by a Storm
That Has Blown Away.
II May Rain To-day VIII BE
Cooler Tonight and To- Morrow.

Acting Weather Prophet II. c. Howe,
who Is handling temperature and toying
with humidities and other meteorological
spielmarks up In the United States
Weather Bureau during Mr.. Dunn's alb
sence In Washington, deserves well OF
his countrymen.
He promises that It Will be cooler to-
night aud tomorrow. while to-day is to
be generally fair, with nice little sprin-
kles ot rain to cool off the atmosphere.
Possibly few thunder-shOwer may
come around tonight also.
Mr.. Howe also makes the welcome an
nouncement that the humidity, the great
discomfort breeder, this morning Is IA
per cent. less than yesterday. To-day
at o'clock 1t was II and yesterday it
was 81. Then the temperature to-day at
O'Clock was only II degrees, also
lesser record than yesterday. An eight
to ten miles an hour southwest wind
is blowing this morning.
All these factors are strongly In faVor
of giving those unhappy New Workers,
who have been sitting IN their bones for
the past few days, a chance to put on
again their fieshy covering.
To add to these obligations, Mr. Howe
has discovered the cause Of the recent
sweltering weather. The villain In the
case Is a storm that has been stationary
off the Northern Atlantic coast for the
past two or three days. It's suction
drew up the South winds with their red
hot temperatures and high humidities,
and then banked them up around New
York. This storm is now blowing off to
sea and won't cause any more trouble.
The weather to-day is generally fair
all over the country, except over New
England and the St. Lawrence Valley
where 1t is cloudy and showery.
Key West and Galveston were the
hottest points In the country at s
o'clock to-day, with an S2-degree mark,
and Roseburg, Vt, the coolest with 49,
Those who feel a little warm to-day
can cool Off nicely by thinking them
selves in White River, Canada. on Lake
Superior, where the thermometer reg
istered 10 degrees, eight points above
freezing.

The TARIFF CRISIS.
Senate Conferrees Hold an In
portant Consultation
Report Of an Agreement Apparently
10 Be Verified.
Republican Members Prepared to
BE Called to the Conference.
lBy Associated Press.)

WASHINGTON, Aug. 9.-The tariff
ccnferrees remained In session until a
few minutes past Il o'clock to-day, and
y hen they adjourned the Senate con-
ferrees proceeded to the Presidents
room, where they held a private consul
tation free from Interference or inter-
ruption.
A report soon gained general circula-
ton to the effect that an agreement had
been absolutely arrived at and that It
was on the lines of the understanding
which was reached last night that iron
ore should be made free, coal made
dutiable at 40 cents per ton and that the
compromise sugar schedule would stand.
The Indications point to a verification
of this report.
The Republican members of the con-
ference had not, at $780, received any
formal notification to attend a meeting,
but they had received an intimation
that a full conference would be held
this afternoon, and Immediately began
consultations with the leaders on that
side OF the chamber. apparently with
the view OF preparing themselves for
the final conflict, which they believe to
be at hand.
A petition was to-day circulated
among members Of the House Of Repre-
sentatives. urging the House tariff con-
ferrees to stand by free sugar and a
permanent income tax. Representative
Bland started the petition. and 1t was
numerously signed.
