necessary, to carry such plan into
effect. But to consent that the Uni
ted States shall pay the bonds now out
standing, amounting in principal to
$64,62S,5 12, and to meet the interest
theron at 6 per cent. until maturity
and to receive therefore collateral
bonds worthless as a merchantable Sc
curity and worthless to the govern
ment. and to be held until the debt is
paid in the manner above stated, is, in
our judgment, beyond all reason.
In the absence of any proposition
from the several companies, or any of
them. to settle their indebtedness to
the United States on fair terms, we
recommend the foreclosure of the lien
of the United States and of the en-
forcement of their rights according to
the provisions of the act of 1862 and
acts amendatory thereof"
The question of liability of stock
holders of the Central Pacific under the
laws of the state of California is one
of great Importance, and its decision
ought not in our judgment to be fore
stalled by an act of Congress releasing
the liability if it exists. It is argued
that the present stockholders are inno-
cent of frauds committed by former
officers and directors and that their
rights ought not be sacrificed by fore
closure. We cannot admit the justice of
this clainl''

Washington, July 2S.-The bodies of
men styling themselves the industrial
army" in camp at Roslyn, Va, oppo-
site Washington, finding themselves in
bad straits, have issued an appeal to
the public for aid.
The appeal recites the sufferings of
the men in journeying hither and the
object of coming here, and announces
that while "at war with hunger,
wretchedness and despair" they pro-
pose to stay here unless forcibly re-
moved, until their demands are granted.
Continuing, The appeal says:
The encampment is today nearly
destitute of provisions, of means, of
shelter, and it is absolutely necessary
that the friends of this movement
should come to our immediate relief.
We therefore, make an earnest ap-
plieation to all who can contribute
something for our support to do so i'm

Summary I'm TO Dnte.

Ashland, Wis, July 2S.-At Mason,
the houses Of the town proper are still
standing, but the loss from the fire
there will reach 100000 Trains on the
Omaha were headed off at Mason by
the burning of the bridge and all the
lnorth-bound trains returned to Spooner.
Briefly summarized the fires have
burned as follows:
The city of Phillips, entirely wiped
out.
The city of Mason is practically
destroyed with the White River Lum-
Der company and 100000 COO feet OF lum-
Der.
Headquarters of the Ashland Lum-
Der company, near Shores Crossing, is
entirely wiped out.
A special train on the Omaha, con-
sisting of sixteen cars and the locomo-
tive, were all burned, having broken
through the bridge near Ashland juno
ton.
The camps of the Thompson Lumber
lcompany are burned at White River.
Two bridges on the main line of the
Omaha and two bridges on the Wiscon-
sin Central railroad, both on the main
line south Of Ashland These are the
losses, and, besides the above the dam
age to timber and logs scattered
throughout the woods belonging to in
dividual homesteaders, and other prop
erty, such as cut corwood, etc, swell
the general damage to appalling fig
ures.
Several parties of berry-pickers from
Ashley barely escaped with their lives.
and it is almost certain that some of
the homesteaders scattered through
the burning timber have persisted in
the flames unless they have in some
manner escaped through the suffocat-
ing flames and smoke Refugees have
begun to arrive at Ashland.

LUMBER CAMPS DESTROYED.
Serious Condition of Affairs in Nor
fhern Wfsconsfn.

Milwaukee, July 28.-Reports OF for
est fires in northern Wisconsin re-
ceived today by the railroad officials
show a serious condition Of affairs; but
there was a promise Of a heavy rail-.
during the day.
Fires are burning between Claiming
and Prai, Michigan, on Lake Superior
division. The lumber camps four
miles from Claiming are reported de-
stroyed and fires are running rapidly
through the woods. Trains are pick
ing their way through the burned sec
lions slowly.
Twenty persons are reported to be
drowned in the lake near Phillips in
endeavoring to escape being burned to
death by forest fires.
A public meeting. was called to take
action in relieving the unfortunate cit
liens Of Phillips. A liberal response was
made.
The same state of affairs exists at
Maladore, Sherry and other points
west of here. All suffered greatly less
than one year ago from forest fires.
Progress now is comparatively slight.

Spokane, Wash, July pa Spokes-
man Review special from Kasio, says:
Losses so far reported from the aw-
full forest fires raging throughout the
mountains OF this section aggregate
about S125,00O. The people of the Slo-
cum district are left destitute without
shelter or food. A relief party has
gone there but it is feared there will
be great suffering before it pushes it's
way through the burning forest. Fires
had been burning around the Inflated
town for several days, but about noon
roaring gale swept down the noun
tain. lifting high in the air tops and
limbs of burning trees and carrying
them long distances as brands to start
new fires in a thousand different pla-
ces. Almost instantaneously a dozen
fires were raging in Three Forks. The
terror-stricken people had to flee for
their lives, leaving everything be-
hind them. The proprietor of a laun-
dry and bath house and his wife jump
ed into the creek and rolled down
stream until they reached a place of
shelter.
At Bear Lake, Mr. Mahoney, who
ran a hotel with his wife and two
small children waded out into the wa
ters Of the lake and remained there
for hours.
1t is almost certain that a number
of lives have been lost among the
prospectors.
The total loss at Three Forks is
about $4,000, at Watson about $4,000;
at Bear Lake S25, 000
1t is feared that Callahan, tele-
graph operator at Watson, and Frank
Price. who was on the north fork of
Carpenter creek, have persisted. The
line Of the fire is twenty-five miles
long and damage to valuable timber
is enormous.
Buildings at the Tam O'Shanter
mine and the Blue Bell have burned.
At Kaslo alarm is felt for the safe
ty of the town. A big fire has been
burning on the lake shore within a
sluartar of a mile of The town

ON THE NORTHERN PACIFIC.
to Be Used to Push Forward
Mail Trains.

Washington, July 28.-In only one
section of the country are the United
States troops now, engaged actively in
keeping railroad traffic, which was in
terrupted by the strike. This is the
country along the Northern Pacific rail-
road. Today General Otis, at Van
couver barracks, telegraphed the war
department that the Northern Pacific
agents had requested him to furnish
troops to open that part of the line ly-
ing in the Occur d A1ene country. The
general consented to provide the troops
from the force now at Wardner, ldaho,
with the understanding that they are
to confine themselves to pushing for
ward mail trains and preventing oo-
structions to interstate commerce.
They will not be used to guard the
railroad generally, save by the request
of the judicial authorities.

John r. Davis Lumber company made
up train Of its. cars and sought to take
the women and children to a place Of
safety, on the Little Elk branch. The
train had proceeded but a short way,
however, when the bridge across the
stream was discovered to be burned,
and the train with its cargo Of human
freight was forced to return to the city
and run the gauntlet Of flame and
smoke.
In the meantime, permission had been
received to use the main tracks Of the
Central road and the homeless people
We're carried south twelve miles to
Prentice. The people of Prentice open
ed wide their homes. but there was not
room for all the crowd of men, women
and children.
About II o'clock at night, the fire
fighters. who had remained on the
scene, betook themselves to a clearing
south Of the city, a place that had been
burned over few days before, so that
there was nothing more for the fire to
feed on. Their route was thick with
lsmothering smoke. The flames jumped
directly across their path from one side
to the other. The fire in the forest
broke out with Vigor and the tall pines,
even the greenest ones, were great
torches, throwing long tongues of fire in
the air. The roaring and cracking of
the fire among the trees was so terrible
that those who heard it will remember
ut as long as they live.
Daylight Reveals DesoIation.
Such light of day as broke through
clouds of smoke that the horizon en-
circled and seemed to be as deep as
from earth to sky looked on a scene of
absolute destruction. There was hard
ly enough left to be called ruins. A
city over mile in length from north
to south and half mile wide, from the
lake in the east to the swamp on the
west, was nothing but embers and
ashes.
As soon as the dense smoke had
cleared a triie, back came the people,
some Of them WORKOUT with the day,
and the night before had slept by the
roadside on the cilarred ground with
the forest cracking all around. Now
that the fire had spent itself, hun
ger was asserting itself, and there was
not as much as a piece of bread to eat.
A relief committee was organized,
and relief quarters established in the
Worcester townhaH and there assem-
bled fathers seeking information as to
the whereabouts Of their families, and
mothers with children crying with hun
ger. Quick to respond were the neigh
boring towns.
In almost no time provisions, con-
o4otluS VI VI eau, Juliet COlLCe anu
canned articles had been received from
Fifield, Prentice, Dorchester, Medford
and Butternut.
A telegram was sent to the governor,
asking him to send blankets and tents,
together with mess tents for 1000 peo-
pie. In response to this the governor
telegraphed tonight that there were no
tents available at present, but that he
would be there in the morning with
sheeting; hammers and nails and to be
ready to begin the construction of tenn
porary quarters.

TAXES on CHURCH PROPERTY.
City of milwaukee Has Big Fight
On Its Hands,

Milwaukee, Wis, July 2S.-The city of
Milwaukee will soon have a big fight on
its hands in the Milwaukee archdiocese
as defendant Arch Bishop KatZer, with
his attorney appeared before the board
of review to argue against the taxation
of the Episcopal residence in this city
The property is assessed at S403 $50. Arch
Bishop Katzer stated that it was the
property of the church.
1T had been the custom until the year
1851" said he, for the archbishop to
hold in fee simple the property of the
church. In 1881 the law in our church
was altered so as to allow the incorpora-
ton of dioceses, but the Milwaukee do
cese was never Incorporated. 1 hold this
property in my name, but 1t is held in
trust and is not my own. 1t is the
church's,"
Long arguments were made by the at
torneys for the church and the city in
which cases were cited in this city where
the property Of three Protestant clergy
men which was used as parsonages was
exempted this year.
