Cannot Check the rlnmcs.

Kane, Pa, June 4.-Never before has
his place been 50 seriously threatened
with destruction as at present. The
forests have been on fire since Saturday
and efforts to check the flames have
been unavailing. The fire has spread to
West Kane, he heat being so intense
that the people We're driven back and
commenced to desert their houses for
places of safety. Every spring is dried
up, and the place is at the mercy of the
flames. The fire is now raging in the
oil fields and has burned the oil well
rigs wned by the Griffith company
The Union Oil company has lost six
rigs and three tanks of oil. James
Campbel's saw mill and over 1000, DOC
feet of logs hav been destroyed.
Five men are reported to have per-
ished at Coon Run. The fire there is
raging so iiercely that the luen who are
fighting the flames cannot get within
a mile of the spot where the houses
stood. South of Kane traffic on the
Pittsburg and Western railway has
been stopped on account of the flames
that are rolling ovcr the racks.
From Ormsby comes the report that
traffic on the Bradford, Boodell and
Kinzua has also been abandoned.

SIS shoes. @
Pittsburg. June 4.-There was a riot
between employees of the Second avenue
and Homestead and Highland Electric
railways at Eighth emu and the
Borough line, ait Homestead, this after
noon. Both roads rave trolley wires
strung from the same poles. their tracks
lying close together on the same road
bed.
The dispute arose over the construc-
ton of the trolley wires connections.
Foreman Bowman of the Second ave-
hue line attempted to stand a ladder to
SUIT the Homestead and Highland wires
from their support. The ladder was
pulled from under him and he was
thrown to the ground and badly hurt
about his head and shoulders. This
was the cause of a general fight be-
tween the men on both sides. in which
a number We're severely injured. There
were from twenty-five to thirty men in
each gang, several of whom had climb
ers on their feet. and the most severe in
juries came from successful efforts to
spike each other. Some received hor-
rible gashes in their limbs and bodies.
The entire police force of Homestead
was summoned and for the time being
restored peace, but the rioting is likely
to be resumed at any moment. as none
bf the participants have left the scene.

Bradford, Pa, June 4.-The woods
about Ormsby are afire and a number
of oil rigs have beer destroyed. All
communication has been cut off. Fires
are also reported along the New York
Lake Erie and Western railroad as far
as Allegheny, N. Y.
On the Buffalo, Rochester and Pitts
burg road, at Dent, the property of the
Emery Oil company is threatened. Oil
rigs all through hat section lave been
burned, as well as millions of feet of
standing timber. The most fear is felt
at Routhcrford Run, where 1000 pounds
of nitroglycerine is stored.
Coon Run, a small settlement ten
miles south of here. in the heart of the
oil fields, has been wiped off the face
of the earth by the flames. People had
to flee for their ives and great excite
ment prevailed. The fire camc so sud.
denly that many women and children
We're panic stricken. became unable to
move and had to be carried to places of
safety in the clearings.
Passengers who arrived here over the
Pittsburg and Western road say the
woods for ten miles in the oil field is a
roaring mass of flames. Conductor
Tanks says the people on the oil leases
are fleeing for safety, but the fire
spread so quickly that he can lot see
how all of them could have been saved

hard. He never asks for anything bet

He sees his wife frequently, but he will
not allow her to bring the two sons from
Omaha to see their father.
