Miles of Country Burning-The Lar-
gest Ever Seen.

Maeomb, Mo-. Nov. 2l.-The largest
and most destructive eonhagration that
has ever swept this district since 1914 is
now circumscribing this district for miles
and miles north of and parallel with the
Memphis railroad. The autumn heavy
foliage has rapidly fallen since frost and
is supposed to have been fired by sparks
of freight engines this afternoon. A
scope of country - miles long is in
flames, miles of fences. orchards, planta-
tons, farms, and dry pasture fields, stock
ed with cattle. and many old settlers
homes lie in the line of devastation and
will find themselves unable to check the
flames, their only remedy being to hur-
riedly turn out stock ahead of the flames
and desert the premises. The altitude
being 100 feet above the sea level and a
terrible southwest wind prevailing, great
destruction is imminent. The town OF
Macomb will probably be totally de
stroyed.

The railroad surveyors who have been
running lines up the Clearwater have
been recalled, having reached point
near Kamiah.
Considerable interest is being centered
in the development of the country in and
about the mouth of the Orc FinO on the
Clearwater, where G. G. Fuller and oJners
are building town and teamway from
the prairie to the river.
Work is progressing on the Salem canal
and it is expected that water will be

the value of the land.
The Moscow public schools are steadily
increasing in the number of pupils, and
there are now larger number enrolled
than at any former period The enroll
ment has reached $50, and it has been
found necessary to open two new rooms
in the top story of the high school build
ing. This arrangement gives better ac-
commodatiOns and makes the other rooms
less crowded.
There have been so many hOldups and
robberies in the vicinity of Lewiston re-
Gently that the business men talk OF or

town and surrounding country is infested
with all kinds of criminals, who seem Sc
re from apprehension. On the reserva-
ION the reign of terror is at its height
with no prospect of immediate relief.
1t is claimed that the report from Lew

the revival of an exploded claim whicr
has been in circulation for the past e

stated that it long ago passed from thell

SEALING FLEET To SELL OUT
FOR ONLY HALF A MILLION.
Cash VIII Probably Settle the Long
Pending Bering Sea Controversy,
ms the Appraised Value of the
seaIers Is Comparatively Tri-
fling Sum.

Washington, Nov 23-The Boring Sea
question was the main topic before the
Anglo-America commission yesterday
when it resumed its sessions after several
days recess. For the first time the two
sides were prepared to exchange estimates
on the value of the Canadian sealing fleet,
the purpose being to arrive at some fair
valuation and retire the fleet by purchase.
After several weeks at Victoria, Messrs.
Taylor and Thayer have arrived here, ac-
-companied by Captain Cox, who repre-
sents the sealers. The two appraisers
made reports to their respective sides, and
these reports in turn were exchanged by
tie commissioners with the view to a
common ground of agreement.
1t is understood both appraisals are con-
siderably below what was expected, and
instead of running into millions they dc
not much exceed half a million. Under
such circumstances strong hopes are eX
pressed by the members of the commission
that a sum may be agreed upon for buy
ing out the industry and the final SETTLE
ment of this long pending, veXatious con
troversy.

ESQUIMALT AND HALIFAX.
Both Are Being Filled with Arms,
Stores and Ammunition.

Ottawa, Ontario, Nov. 22.-At the rate
heavy ship guns, quick firers, small arms,
ammunition, munitions of war and stores
for active service are arriving at Halifax
and Esquimalt it will soon be possible to
convert ocean liners into armed cruisers
and transports equivalent to the embarka-
ton of 10000 men simultaneously for any
points in the far eastern seas to which the
ships might be ordered.
There is apparently no intention to pro
vide for a movement of troops to any
large extent from Europe across Canada
by the Imperial highway" to Asia. On
the contrary, every indication points to
Esquimalt being utilized chiefly for fit
ting out cruisers and transports on sud
den emergency, and Halifax as supply
depot for the dispatch of supplies and
drafts of reinforcements overland to Els
quimalt.
Facilities for the transport of troops in
large numbers across the continent under
the conditions the imperial government
would propose are not unlimited, though
means may be supplied at a sharp mo
ment to move as many as 10000 men
baggage and supplies without much no
tice

SPAIN MAY SOON LEAVE CUBA
The Evacuation May Take Place
Sooner Than Was Expected.

Washington, Nov. 23.-The Cuban evac-
uation commission has made quite extend
ed reports to the war department concern
ing the situation in the island. relating
largely to camps, conditions and proposed
sites for United States garrisons, as well
as suggestions as to supplies for the army.
and other matters of detail which must be
considered before the army is sent to Cuba.
One of the most important features OF
the later reports is that evacuation OF the
island by the Spanish may take place
sooner than at first anticipated. The COM
mission has been informed that 80 Span.
ish transports are now on the way to
Cuba and they will be able to take away
a large number of troops.
The war department is now making ar
rangements to send troops to Cuba as
soon as the Spaniards evacuate, and will
be ready to occupy the different points as
fast as the Spaniards move away.

Shorter Hours.

indianapolis, Nov. 22.-Beginning yes
terdav. and continuing for year, union
printers, pressmen and bookbinders
throughout the country will work nine
hours and half day. The reduction in
the hours of labor is not in itself OF great
consequence, for in many cities these
trades work but nine hours day, but
theoretically the change is regarded in Ia
Dor and industrial circles as one OF great
moment, as being the initiative step in the
struggle of organized labor for universal
eight-hOur day.
