ESTIMATES WIDE OF THE TRUTH.
Milwaukee Fire Costs Only $50, 1000, While
Cameron, w. Va, Loses 100000

Milwaukee Fire Costs Only $50, 900, While
Cameron, w. Va, Loses 100000
CAMERON, June 1.-THE first estimate
of the loss by the fire at Cameron is en-
tirely inadequate. The standing prop
erty of the town was probably worth
$3.50 600, and the latest itemized list of
losses foots over $1,000 The insurance
is but drop in the bucket--only $50, 600,
of which $4,000 Is in three Wheeling
companies. Fifty-two houses were burned.
OF these twenty-eight wore dwelling
houses and the balance business houses.
Already builders are here from Wheeling,
and several business men are preparing
to rebuild. But the devastation is so wide
spread that the mayor has appealed to
the country at large for funds to provide
for the estitute.
MILWAUKEE, June 1.-THE fire in the
Forster Lumber company district was
very deceiving as to loss. One newspaper
correspondent sent Chicago paper the
statement that $7h0, coo had been wiped
out, and generally the estimate was $780,
600. Insurance men now say the loss will
not exceed $4,000, as most of the lumber
piles are simply charred on the ends and
the lumber can be resawed. They figure
that the loss on the Uhrig Company's
coal Will DO small. Considering the ex-
tent of the territory (three blocks) en-
braced by the flames and the character of
the surrounding property the loss is
ridiculously small.

Also tho Condition of the Crops and Pros
poets for Yield.
CHICAGO, June 12--The Illinois wealth
er service has this to say of the weather
and crops: The past week has been in
general continuation of tho drought
conditions; light showers fell in northwest
and southern counties tho first Of last
week, but these were insufficient even in
the localities most favored. Tempera-
lures were high and sunshine practically
continuous. Rain is much needed for
crops and to replenish wells, springs and
streams. Corn has suffered less from the
lack of moisture probably than any
other crop; the fields are clean and Guilt
walton general. Wheat harvest will be-
gin in southern counties this week and
in central counties the coming week.
Along the Ohio valley and where rains
fell in southern and central counties the
wheat is slightly improved.
But the yield will be very light at best
and many fields in the central section
and west center of southern section will
scarcely pay for the harvest. Rye is also
poor and much of it is being cut for hay.
Oats are heading very short and will be
light in yield. Glover harvest is done in
southern and we'll along in central
counties. The yield Is light but the con-
ditions favorable for cutting. Meadows
and pastures are much in need of rain,
also potatoes and gardens. Fruit is hold
ing up we'll; cherries are ripening with
good yield

CHICAGO, June l2.--President Debs, of
the American Railway Union, entered
the Office of United States Marshal Ar
mold and reported for removal to jail to
serve the remainder of his first sentence
for contempt OF court. He was told that
he would not be wanted until p. m. At
p. M. of all the other prisoners were
taken to the Northwestern station in
charge of deputy marshal and started
for the Jail at Woodstock-all except
Howard. He did not want to be locked
up with the A. II. u. men, as he had q
matter at heart that is dearer to him than
the A. X. Ia rival organization. SO
he will be sent tn the viii county Jail at
Joliet.
But when the other prisoners were
taken In charge ready to go to the train
Debs was missing. He had told the mar
shall at noon that he had good deal Of
business to attend to, but would be
through in time for the train and prom
ised to report at p. IN. Three men were
sent out to hunt for him and told to
bring him in wherever found. But up to
train time he was not found, much to the
marshal's disgust, who said he did not
think Debs purposely missed the train.
The other men went on except Howard,
who will go today.
Talking of the matter Debs said: GAS a
matter of course, it's disagreeable. but ]

thority vested in me l have appointed
