REPUBLIC IN ASHES.
Business District of the Town Destroyed
BY Fire.


By Fire.
REPUBLIC, Wash. June "A dis
astrous fire broke out here at 6 o'clock
yesterday morning, and before the
flames were brought under control the
damage amounted to $250,00O At
noon today the business portion of .he
town is mass of smouldering ruins,
while on three sides are rows of
scorched buildings marking the path
of the flames. The fire.fghting ap-
paratus could not check the blaze, and
it was only used to save some of the
buildings outside the fire zone that
were smoking and breaking into flames
at times.
The fire was started by the explosion
of gasoline stoye in the Siegel ouild-
ing on Clark avenue, where men were
cooking breakfast. It spread on the
west side of the street to Brownies
restaurant, and south to the Republic
Trading Company's store. On the
west side two entire blocks were de-
stroyed.
Powder was used to blows up the.
building occupied by Alexander's law
Office on the opposite side OF the cross
street from Percy's building. Then
the latter building was sent skyward,
and the flying brands scattered the fire
~ L4 - 4f
Clark avenue. It is rumored that two
opium fends were burned in one of the
buildings. No authenticity is given
for the reports and it is impossible to
learn where the supposed victims were.
Twenty-eight buildings are ruined.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 5 5-Nathan
B. Scott, United States senator from
West Virginia, and until recently
United States commissioner of intern
al revenue, is in the city on his brief
visit. He had much to do with franz
ing the war-tax bill, which he says
has increased the annual revenues of
the government about 100000, 600.
He thinks that with few modifica.
tions the measure will continue in
force for some time to come. In his
Judgment the Filipinos ought to be
subdued and given a form of govern
based on home rule principles before
the question of expansion is made a
political issue.

Teachers Reelected. .

Tuesday was the date for electing
teachers for The Dalles public schools,
tor the ensuing year, and all the for
mer teachers were reelected, hence
the only change to be made in the
corps next year will be that of Prof.
Landers transferred to the city sup
erintendency, and his place as prin-
cipal of the high school having been
taken by Professor Neff, mention of
which was made some time since.
The reelection of all the teachers is
not only compliment to them, but
speaks well for the excellency of The
Dalles schools. Teachers having
given such satisfaction in their past
work that the school board saw no
need of change in single instance is
good guarantee that the school are
presided over by a corps of most excel
lent teachers, therefore the schools
are good.

with the insurgents, one of them
severe, and keeping up an almost con-
stant fire against scattered bands of
rebels for nearly "a hours. from
o'clock Saturday morning. when the
column left the pumping station.
The PHILIPPINES were driven in every
direction, and the country through
which General Hall passed was pretty
thoroughly cleared up. At 10 O'Clock
Sunday morning the column reached
a point few miles from Taytay, where
General Hall was met by General
Lawton, who had already entered the
town and found it deserted. General
Halls objective point was Antipolo,
10 miles off and there was desultory
firing all along the line of march.
The column, after driving the rebels
from the foothills near Maria Chino,
with loss of but two or three slightly
wounded, proceeded with all possible
haste toward Laguna de Bay, the
Fourth cavalry in the lead, the Oregon
next, and the Fourth infantry last.
At 5 o'clock these regiments fought
their second battle of the day, and it
resulted like the first-in the complete
rout of large Filipino force located
in the mountins and having every
advantage Of position. In this fight
the American loss was four killed,
three Ct the Fourth cavalry and one
Oregopian, and about Is wounded.

In this engagement our troops made
one of the most gallant charges of the
war, and the enemy was forced to flee
in the greatest disorder.
The cavalry, the Oregonians and

o. clock in the afternoon and entered
upon a sunken road, from which they
were emerging upon small valley

into the ranks of the Americans
General Halls advance was first
halted after he had
crossed the first range of hills to the

Americans chased the rebels for some
distance. The Oregon regiment lost
