DErRorT. Mich. July 1.-THE upper
part of the lower p~eninsula Of Mich
igau Is dotted tonight with savage
forest fires Already thefumber towns
Of Waiiin, mp in Benzie county, and
CIeary. near the little town. have been
ievelled TO the ground, several people
have been badly burned, and no n
knows tonight how far the damage
has extended. The Thumb has been
invaded. and the town of Kindee is
girded with FIRE. and ashes and black
leaves are Sitting down on the people
In the resorts to the north.
Wallin, as far as can be learned, Is
totally destroyed. The Sullivan Lum-
Der Co.'S mills there and 2,0oo,o00 feet
Of lumber were burned, together with
thirty houses that made up the little
settlement The people lost all they
had. Most of them are at Thompson
vile, a neighboring town. They are
said to be in a greatly exhausted con-
dition. No deaths are as yet reported
from that point
Two Chicago q West Michigan
trains are blocked by the FIRE just be-
low Wallin and the telegraph poles
are burned and all wires are down.
Late tonight intelligence comes
that Cleary, a small lumber town near
Wallin. was burned this evening. The
fires, which have been burning for sew
eral days, suddenly grew worse and
before the inhabitants were aware Of
1t they were nearly hemmed in. They
made a rush from the burning town
and, as far as Known. left no one be-
hind. Several people were badly
burned, but as far as known no lives
were lost.
From Kindee, in the Thumb, vert
the great forest fire occurred a few
years ago, comes the most alarming
reports The town is surrounded with
flames that every moment are sweep
ing nearer the place. The news, as
sent from towns near by Is, that the
people Of Kindee are wetting the roofs
Of their houses and covering tn sides
with wet blankets in the hope that
they may a " all they have in the
world. Iii is feared that the town viii
go, and messages urging the people to
flee for their lives have been sent from
several places.
Reports from Traverse City, Petos-
key, Charlevoix and the other towns
are all Of the same tenor that the fires
have been burning for over two weeks,
and that a sudden strong wind has
famed them into alarming activity.
Already a number Of farmhouses have
been burned, and the people are COM
ing into town, telling that they have
lost all they had on earth.
Late reports from the extreme west
ern edge of the state are that there Is
alittle- improvement in the situation,
but 1t is feared that the hot cinders
have worked havoc among the amous
orchards of that vicinity.

Il OHIO RIVER.
General Plan for Improving Its Nsvigatios
-Difaczaties IN the way.

General Plan for Improving Its fevigatioa
-~Dimczities in the Way.
WASHINGTON, July 1s.-The general
plau for improving the navigation Of
the Ohio river Is treated In the an
nual report of Col Amos Stickney,
corps of engineers, United States
army, with reference to the work ac-
complished during the year ended
June 30, 1895. The plan has for its OBJ
ject to secure additional depth at Is
lands and bars by the construction Of
low dams across chutes and by the
building Of dikes where the river is
wide and shallow so as TO conine the
TOW to smaller cross section and
by dredging.
A radical Improvement Of the upper
part of the river has been commenced
by the construction of q lock and
movable dam at Davis island, FIVE
miles below Pittsburgh and work on
another lock and dam No. 6, has been
commenced Just below Beaver.
Surveys have also been made for
sites for movable dams Nos. 2. 3, 4
and S of the series. A snag boat and
two dredges belonging to the United
States are constantly employed when
funds are available and the stage Of
the river permits, in taking out snags
and wrecks and in dredging away
gravel and rock distractions that can-
not otherwise be removed.
The work of improvement has been
continued all along the river to Mound
City. H., ESQ miles below Pittsburgh,
where bikes are being erected.
Speaking generally Of the project Col.
Stickney says that It is impossible to
determine in advance just where and
how much work will be needed for
making good navigation upon the en-
tire upper length Of the river. and
therefore 1t is impossible to submit
estimates for complete improvement
The work, he says, must be pro-
gressive and tentative, and ow-
ing to the varied interests
and covering nearly 1000 miles
of river. the locations Of works
must be at considerable distances
apart. so that no reach Of river
can be taken on hand and improve
ment completed in advance Of other
parts of the river, unless large amounts
of money are provided.
Continuing, he says: ''The great and
growing commerce Of this river. its
numerous cities, and the rapid in
crease of the already large population
of the valley should appeal in strong
terms for adequate appropriations for
such betterment of the navigation as
it is certain can be obtained by well.

THE SPECIAL GRAND JURY
Investigating Charges of Conspiracy and
solicitation of Bribes.

Solicitation of Brides.
CHicAGo. July 12.-The special grand
jury which was summoned Wednesday
for the purpose of Investigating
specific charges of conspiracy and
solicitation of brides on the part OF
aldermen and their go-betweens, was
impaneled yesterday in Judge Tut
hills court, and strongly charged by
his honor. The jury is composed Of
twenty-three prominent business and
professional men, In his charge, Judge
Tuthill said:
For months past the press of this
city has teemed with charges more or
less direct that corruption has existed
in the public legislative. body of the
city. How much of truth there may
be in the charges I do not know
and you do not know. These charges,
as made through the press. have
reached that stage where special acts
of misconduct and malfeasance in of
fee have been charged against particu-
lar individuals. On the representation
of the state attorney that it was for the
public good that q special grand jury
should be called and submission by
them of evidence to me, I have caused
it to be summoned. The only matter
to be submitted to You win be the
charges of the corruption in the sity
council"
Aldermen Charles Martin and F. NJ.
Funkler, who are charged with solicit
ing brides from ice companies and Of
conspiring to pass "sandbagging' or
dinances, declared all such charges
false.

All of Whom were Heads Of Families, 20

SourH HAVEN. Mich, July IA
yacht disaster occurred to-day two
miles out Of this port, but full particu-
lars have not been received yet It is
known. however that three lives were
lost, the owner OF the craft and the
members of the firm who built It meet
ing their death in the loss Of the boat.
The Arctic, the name of the Inflated
yacht, was built here by Messrs.
Coates & Stilson. The owner. who
did not live to enjoy his possession.
was NJ. s. Tisworth. Last Tuesday
the yacht was launched from the yards
Of the firm in this city. To-day It
was decided to take the boat to Sag
atuck for a trial sail, and the party
consisted Of the owner and builders.
There was only a slight breeze blow
ing on the lake and an easy and en-.
joyabls trip was expected All went
well until the boat was about two
miles out from here. Observers from
shore report that they saw the yacht
suddenly roll over keel up and sink
before any of the victims on board had
q chance to keep afioat by clinging to
anything.
The members of the ~life-saving crew
were at once notified Of the disaster,
and pulled their boat with all possible
speed to the scene. They were too
late to pick up anything except = cap
belonging to one Of the drowned men.
The accident is all the more distress

THE DEFENDER.
sBlind John" Herreshon's Leatest Crea-
tion In n Beauty.

rH= ~ ~ Dcauty
PROVIDENCE, r l., July 12.-Defend-
er, the latest creation of blind John"
H~erreshoff, is aptly named. She was
built for business, and q more bust.
ness-like craft never left the ways.
All who have seen the Defender agree
that she is far and away the finest
yacht for racing purposes ever pro-
dueed in this country. The Vigilant
has been remodeled on lines similar
70 those employed in the construction
of the new Vanderbilt -Morgan-Iselin
boat, but few believe that the sue
cessful cup defender of 1893 is in the
anne class with Defender. The opin-
ion is quite generally held by yachts
men in this part of the country that
Defender is the boat that Lord Dun
raven will have to reckon with, and
of the ultimate result there is no shad-
ow of doubt that the old Americas
cup will remain in this country for an
other year at least. It is difficult to
compare the new boat and Valkyrie
Ill as yet, but, measured by every
known standard of comparison at hand,
1t is obvious that Dunraven has under
taken a hopeless task.
The Defender is built for speed in
all sorts of weather. Her trial brush
with the Colonia on Sunday last demon.
strated this. In a 10-mile race to wind
ward the Defender beat the colonia
nor than eight minutes. She worked
like q piece of well-oiled machinery,
coming about nearly on her own axis
at one time in fifteen seconds, at an
other in sixteen seconds and a third in
eighteen seconds. This fine work in
stays is in strong contrast to that Of
the Vigilant. The latter vessel in the
90 races took on an average of twenty
three seconds to come about. and in
the races in England. in the Iandlocked
courses, an even greater number Of
seconds were consumed. No British
cutter ever turned so quickly as did
the Defender when Nat Herreshof put
the wheel hard down. The work
was marvellous.
At a distance the Defender looks q
good deal like the yigilants but close
aboard, say within 100 yards. her extra
power in hull and sail plan is very APP
parent. She seemed, when en- an even
keel, last Sunday, to sit a little down
by the head, but the crew were all for
ward at the time. and the fault was
more apparent than real. However. a
slight change has been made in the
bearings ct this point, and the defect
has thus been remedied.
IN a heavy sea the Defender stands
mp like u church, and she has sailed
closer up IN the wind ct odd times in
the past few days than any Herreshof
yacht ever before put in the water.
