APPALLING RECORD.
List of the Towns and Property De-
stroyed Is Staggering.


ASHLAND, Wis, July 2S.-At Mason the
houses of the town proper are still standing,
but the loss there will reach S700,0O0 Trains
on the Omaha were headed off al Mason by
the burning of the bridge, and all north
bound trains returned to Spooner. Briefly
summarized, the fires have burned as fol-
lows:
The city of Phillips is entirely wiped out.
The city of Mason is practically destroyed,
with the White River Lumber Company
and thirty million seet of lumber.
Headquarters of the Ashland Lumber
Company, near Shores crossing, is in ashes.
A special train on the Omaha, consisting g
Of sixteen cars and the locomotive, were
all burned, having broken through tAe
bridge near Ashland junction.
The camps of the Thompson Lumber Com
pany are burned at White River
Two bridges on the main line of the
Omaha railway and two bridges on the
Wisconsin Central, both on the main line,
south of Ashland, are also gone. Besides
the above, the damage to timber and loSs
scattered through the woods, the individ-
ual homesteaders' houses and other prop
erty will swell the general damage to ap-
palling figures. Several parties of berry
pickers from Ashland narrowly escaped
with their lives, and ii is almost certain
that some of the lone homesteaders scat
tered through the burning timber have
perished in the flames unless they have ia
some manner escaped through the suffo-
eating flames and smoke. Refugees have
begun to arrive al Ashland.

and definite programme by which the time
of the passage of the tariff bill or its form
can be predicted. President Cleyeland's
great interest in the income tax struggle
was shown early in the day by the calls
OF Chairman Wilson and Representative
Catchings. the latter being Speaker crisp's
associate on the committee on rules The
Presidents callers were careful TO refraia
from any intimation OF the policy of the
administration, and there were conflicting
reports as TO the attitude Of Mr.. Cleveland
Ii was stated by those closely connected
with administration affairs that the Presl-
dent was as firm now when he wrote
the famous letter to Chairman Wilson
against yielding what he regards vital
principles of tariff reform. on the other
hand. the current opinion in congressional
cireles seemed 10 be that the only asOlG-
ton to the pgoblem was in accepting TIA

such concessions as the cOnferees havs
shown a d d.spositiOn to yield. This current
of feeling found expression later in the day
