SPANISH LINES NARROWING.
American Business Men FlockinG to Porto
Rico, and Returning Disappointed
Rumors of Outlawry.

San Juan, Oct. 1.-The meeting of
the military commission Thursday
was private, and no news was given
out regarding what transpired. The
American troops now occupy fully
two-thirds of the island. The Spanish
line, running in a semi-circle south of
San Juan, is narrowing daily, and the
Spanish are receding toward the cap
ital. American business men are
focking here, seeking for markets or
looking for business chances. They
are investigating the prevailing condi-
tions; but the island is not yet ripe for
business operations of any great inn
portance, and many of them are re-
turning, disappointed, to their homes.
Rumors of outlawry in the western
part of the island continue, including
the burning of houses and the MAIN.
ing of cattle.

Heart Broken Over the Death of HeI
Father.
SICK SOLDIERS.
Protest from Surgeon-Major Sea-
man-Disclaimed Responsibility.

Santiago de Cuba, Oct. 3.-Surgeon
Major Seaman, of the Transport OBJ
dam, declares that there will be a
repetition of the awful horrors that
lave characterized the voyage home
of the other transports if more sick
soldiers are sent on board the vessel
for transportation to New York. He
says that when the OLDHAM left Porto
Rico, many on board were sick, yet
the first quartermaster refused TO
furnish wine for their use, but sup
piled them with hard tack and canned
food, saying that he had no authority
to do more. Surgeon Seaman said he
would hold him responsible should
any deaths occur, and finally succeed
ed in obtaining suitable food for those
who were i'll. He asserts that the ship
has every man that he can carry and
that if she reaches New York without
any deaths occurring, she will De
lucky.
Hearing that a number of other
sick soldiers were to be sent aboard
her, the surgeon-major made protest
and stated that he was informed by
Gen. Lawton that his protest showed
lack of discipline, and that an officer
had been appointed to see how many
additional the OLDHAM could carry.
Surgeon Seaman says he will cable
to Surgeon-General Sternberg pro-
test disclaiming responsibility for
whatever may happen.

TRIBUTE TO BAYARD.
oel John Hay, the New Secretary of State,
Writes His Estimate OF the De-
parted Statesman.

Washington, Oct. 1.-The following
tribute to Thomas f. Bayard was
written by Secretary of State John
Hay:
.'The news of Mr.. BGyard's fatal ILL
ness-folIowed so swiftly by the It'd
ings of his Iamented death-came up
on his many friends with a singular
shock. One of the elements of the re-
markable charm which distinguished
him was his persistent youthfulness.
His handsome face was always young;
he had the voice and the bearing of
buoyant youth; his enthusiasm and
quick emotions were those of prue-
minded and high-spirited boy. His
scorn of everything mean or base; his
disregard of consequences in the pur-
suit of what he thought right; his
frank expectation of that sympathy
which he was so ready to give; his be-
lief in the sincerity of others, being
himself absolutely sincere; all these
qualities, even more than his good
looks and gallant bearing, gave the
impression not only of a young man,
but of one who would always be
young. 1t is hard to think that the
rigid limit of three score and ten
years should be the term of so much
activity and energy. But the fine vi
tally and power of such character
will survive his death. In the affec-
ton of those who knew him, as a
model and example of those who adj
mired him, he will live long as an CT
during memory and a wholesome in
spiration.

Forests of West Brush, the Finest Body

Region Is Now Estimated at Three Hum

Denver, Col, Oct. 1.-The weather
man can offer no hope for those on the
western slope whose homes and crops
are threatened by the forest fires.
There are no indications whatever of
rain, and this seems to be the only
element able to stay the flames fury.
High Winds Fan the Flames.
Throughout Eagle county high winds
have prevailed giving a fresh impetus
to the forest fires that are devastating
the timber domain. In consequence
new territory is being devoured. The
blaze is rapidly extending along the
grand reserves of Girard mountain,
west of Homestake creek, and from
present appearances will sweep the
country to Bear mountain, at Min
turn.
Little Remains to Burn.
Back of Minturn to the heads of Will
low and Two Elk the country Is de-
vastated, little remaining to feed the
flames. From Hoosier mountain the
wind has driven the fire to the edge
of Gypsum creek. The settlers of Up
per Gypsum, Cannon, Collins and 9TH
ers are fighting desperately to save
their homes and stop its passage
across into the magnificent forests of
West Brush. If it gets into Brush,
the finest body of timber in the state
is gone. No loss of life has been re-
ported, but several people have lost
their homes and their crops
Government Reserve on Fire.
The big White River government re-
serve, starting in Garfield county and
extending through Routt and Rio
Blanco, is also on fire.
Reliable reports show that the fires
are now nearly 300 miles in circum.
ference, with Glenwood for a center
and practically every mountain rang
with timber is ablaZe.

FIRES IN WISCONSIN.
"A Heavy Rain Quenched the Flames, But
Not Before q Million Dollars Worth
of Property was Destroyed.

Milwaukee, Oct. Reports re-
aceiyed at the railroad offices in this
city are to the effect that the forest
fires in the northern part of the state
were quenched by heavy fall of rain
Thursday night. The heaviest loss
was suffered at Cumberland, where Is
families were rendered homeless by
the flames, and a large saw mill plant,
valued at $225,oOO, was wiped out.
Wires are down in all directions, and
particulars of the ruin wrought have
not yet been received.
Only one death as far as known has
resulted, that of Mrs. Jacob Correzon,
at Drywood. Two children of Mrs.
Correzon were seriously burned while
attempting to rescue their mother.
The pecuniary loss is not expected
to reach over $1,000, 900. General Su-
perintendent Collins of the Wisconsin
Central lines says not a penny's dam
age has been done to his company's
property.
Assistant General Superintendent
Bush, of the St. Paul road, had heard
of nothing unusual froR the fire sec
ton.

sized Horses, No Matter How
Good They May BE.

For years the standard of the mar
ket for horses has been steadily adj
vancing. It takes better horse now
adays to be called a good one than
ever before He must have more quail
ity, more style and, above ALL more
size than ever The last is especially
important in the opinion of the Ma
tional Stockman. A horse must be of
good size for his class to bring a good
price. A little draft horse is chunk
and maybe poor one at that. A
small driver is not wanted by men who
can afford to pay good prices for driv-
ing horses, and is too small to work,
If a man is breeding drivers to sell,
he must get the size. He cannot afford
to risk getting extreme speed one
time and losing the other things nine
times. He must breed for quality,
style and size and all the speed he can
add thereto will profit him. But a
farmer cannot afford to breed small
horses on the chance of getting speed.

CATION from that state, called on the
president to urge that a permanent
army camp be located at Columbia,
S. c., and that an army hospital be
established at Charleston. 1t was also
asked that Charleston be made the
point of debarkation for the troops
to be dispatched to Cuba and
Porto Rico. The president listened
very attentively to the claims in be-
half of the state, and promised to
give them consideration. The presi-
dent, in acknowledging what was adj
dressed to him by the delegation, took
occasion to pay an eloquent tribute
to the devotion and patriotism of the
soldiers of the south, and said he had
not heard murmur or complaint
from that section.
