Macomb, Mo-, May BE
Destroyed.

MACoMB, Mo-, Nov. 2l.-The largest
and most destructive conflagration that
has ever swept the Ozark mountains
since 1884 is now circumscribing this
town for miles and miles, north and
parallel with the Memphis railroad.
The autumn heavy foliage is supposed
to have been fired from sparks of freight
engines. A scope of country l3 miles
long is in flames.
Neighborhoods find themselves to-
tally unable to check the flames. Their
only remedy is to hurriedly turn out
stock ahead of the flames and desert
premises. The town of Macomb will
probably be destroyed.

JUDGE DAYS Confidence.

the Peace Treaty.
Washington, Nov. rs. - Throughout
the peace negotiations which are still
pending at Paris the president has ex
pressed confidence that a treaty salts
factory to the United States would be
drafted and signed. From time to
time assurances of substantial progress
toward that end have been received
from the American commissioners.
Yesterday advices were received by the
president from Mr.. Day, president OF
the Paris commission, reiterating the
assurances he had previously given the
president of the early and successful
conclusion of the work of the commits
sion.
Judge Day, 1t is understood, states
positively that the Spanish commits
sioners formally will accept, perhaps
today, the terms of the United States
and that a treaty drawn along the lines
of the agreement reached would be
drawn and signed in a few days.
The dispatch from Judge Day was the
first absolutely definite statement as to
the conclusion of the labors of the
commission that has been received.
1t is probable that the president will
discuss in his message to congress,
today, the successful efforts of the
administration in the negotiation of a
peace treaty, although there is a pos
sibility that the treaty itself may not
have been signed at the time.
