AN EARLY MORNING BLAZE
The Wholesale House of. J. H.
 McCary 6 Co. Gutted. GOOD WORK OF THE LADDlES In Preventing Spread of the Flames, Which at One Time Looked UgIy-Mr. Me-
 Carys Estimate of Losses.

At o'clock this morning fire was dis covered in the three-story brick building on Morris avenue, between Twentieth and Twenty-frst streets, occupied by J. II. McCary & Co.,, as wholesale grocery house. The fire, which had been evident ly under headway for some time, was dis covered by police officer, and the alarm was turned in by MT. L. w. Friedman from box 121. Both departments re- sponded with remarkable alacrity, and were on the grounds in short order.
 The flames were on both the second and third floors, and at the time of the arrival of the departments had gained such headway as to indicate the loss of the entire block. Fortunately, however, the building had a fire wall, and this served to prevent spread of the flames.
 Six streams were gotten on the fire, and after an hours hard and effective work the flames were practically sub dued.
 MT. McCary, who arrived on the scene a half hour after the fire laddies, was seen by an Age-Herald reporter and stated his loss to be about $2000, with $7000 insurance. On the second floor is a cold storage and two banana rooms the three valued at $1100, without insur- ance. It is thought the fire originated near one of the latter.
 The fire was entirely in the second and third foors and at no time did it get on the ground f1oor though the goods stored there are virtually total loss by dam age from water, an immense volume of which was poured on the burning build ing.
 MT. McCary stated that he had been in business nine years and this was his first experience of the kind.

Countess de Castellane's Gown.

The steamer gown which the much
reported Countess de Castellane provid-
ed for her trip across to her new home
was an excellent model for spring and
summer travelling gowns, for women
untitled and not supplied with the large
amount of income which falls to the lot
of this young woman. 1t was plain
skirt and sleeveless jacket, made with
several falling cape collars that conceal
ed the sleeves to the elbow. Six silk
blouses were supplied for use with the
costume. For the woman who would
use the suit six months, instead Of six
days, shirt waists could replace the
heavier blouse as the season advances
The capes are decided relief to the
simplicity Of the jacket, and the model
with this possibility of indefinite varia-
lions is particularly useful and stylish

CORNELL GIVEN THE RACE.

The Leanders Have Lodged a Protest
Against the UmpIEe's Decision.
Observation-Disclosures, July l0.-The
first day Of the 56th anniversary of the
water derby Of Great Britain was a dis.
appointment to all concerned. Cornell
was pitted against the crew of the
Leander Boat club, composed of ex.
Oxford and Cambridge Oarsmen, and
said to be the strongest on the river.
There was some confusion at the start,
owing to the presence near the starting
line Of number Of boats which Sc
riously interfered with Leander. Con-
sequently the latter were somewhat
slow in getting into position. Then,
when the umpire asked if the crews
were ready, Cornell promptly answered
Eyes, and the umpire claims Leander
did the same. This the Leanders deny.
In any case the umpire gave the word
go" and the Cornell crew shot away.
But only half the Leander crew started
and their stroke protested that they
were not ready. In spite of this the
umpire allowed Cornell to pull over the
course and awarded the Americans
the race. The Leanders have lodged a
protest against the umpire's decision
and it was referred to the board Of
stewards But the board will not
change the decision.

.SUSTAINS CAPT. BECK.
Inspector McLaughlin's Report
to Secretary Smith.
Mortgages on Growing Crops the Reason
Which Influenced the Illegal LesssesstO
Hold Out Against Leasing Indian Land
Through the Agency ONCE.

WASHINGTON, July 10.-UndeF date
Of June 20 Indian Inspector J. Nc
Laughlin made a long report to Secre-
tary Smith on the subject of the trouble
between the government and the
Flournoy Land company on the Omaha
and WinnebagO reservation near PEN
der, Neb. It was stated at the time the
report was made that Mclaughlin was
on his way to Washington with a com
promise agreement with the settlers.
This proves to have been untrue. The
inspector says in part:
'Pender, Neb., is the headquarters of
the several organizations Of spectators
who are trying to control the Indian
lands of both the reservations. These
spectators unite in opposing the pres
emit administration of the agency affairs
and have succeeded remarkably in con-
veying the impression that they have
been much injured by Captain Beck's
attitude in treating all illegal lessees as
tr5spassers.
Mortgages on Growing Crops.
Desiring to learn the cause influence
ing the illegal lessees to hold out against
leasing the lands from the Indian al.
lotees through the agency Office, Wis
tied the interested parties and learned
that the chief cause was that they had
given notes for this years rental, some
secured by mortgages on the growing
crop. These notes had been placed by
TIE company III various banks as seen.
rity for the money borrowed by it. The
lessees, therefore, fear that should they
lease through the agent and agree to
pay the rent to the Indians, they would
also have to pay their notes to the
FlOurnoy company. This company
further advises its lessees not to rent
from the Indians, assuring them that it
has the right to lease the lands to them
and that if they will only remain loyal
to the company they will be protected.
In some cases the company has given
an indemnity bond to its tenants. In
this way and by making false and
misleading statements, the company
has succeeded in keeping many well
disposed persons from leasing under de.
paTtmental regulations"
The report then gives the result of a
conference between a committee of set
tiers and the government officials, which
resulted in the form of agreeing to the
governments proposition, and in clos.
ing Inspector Mclaughlin says he be-
heyes matters will be quickly settled,
unless the FlournOy company succeeds
in cajOling the settlers into standing
by it,
"But if, f" he continued, cit becomes
necessary to remove any of the settlers
by force, / recommend that the military
be employed for that purpose, as the hot
heads may forcibly resist the Indian
police"
