HUGE ELEVATOR Is DESTROYED
Fire in CupoIa Causes Two Terrific
Explosions, Entailing Loss of
One Million Dollars.

TOLEDO, O., July 23.-The c., H. & D.
elevator, located in East Toledo, was totally
destroyed by fire tonight and the loss on
building and contents will reach nearly a
million dollars. 1t is not known how much
insurance is on the grain, amounting to
900. 600 bushels Of wheat. but the building
carries $1S5, 900 in various companies.
The elevator has been unusually busy for
the last two weeks and was working night
and day to store the $50 cars of wheat which
are unloaded daily at the place. The fact
that this was Sunday prevented the fatal
tiles which might have followed, for the
forty men employed there had quit work
early and had been out of the place about
two hours.
The Waterman had once made the rouLds
Of the building and had found everything
safe, and was on his way to the top on
his second trip. He was not aware there was
a fire, but observers noticed a small blaze
in the cupola. An alarm was Immediately
turned in, but before any of the depart
ments could reach the place a terrific ex-
plosion occurred that rocked the foundations
of surrounding buildings. A mass of flame
shot up in the air hundreds of feet. The
building was almost Immediately enveloped
and within ten minutes another and more
terrific explosion occurred, which tore out
the entire side of ne building near the
river. This explosion hurled the watch
man, w. e. WEIGH, out of the flames and
saved his life. He was only slightly in
jured and will recover.
The enormous building was a mass Of rims
half an hour after the first blaze was no.
ticed. The work of the ire department was
futile, most of their energies being directed
toward saving adjoining property.
The c. II. g. ID. elevator was largely owned
by eastern capital. President Woo1ford of
the Cincinnati, Hamilton & Dayton road is
president of the company. An elevator
owned by this company vas burned on rhe
same site four years ago and the present
building was built 20 he he most com
plete and most perfect in the country. T.
was provided with every Appliance to pre-
vent spontaneous combustion and tonight's
fire is a great surprise to those who have
inspected the place. The actual loss to the
company win be about S75, 900, while the
grain which is on consignment will be al
most a total loss to the shippers. The fire
department claims spontaneous combustion
caused the blaze.

MCARTY STILL AT LARGE
Sheriff Sam StartSler of sarpy County
Makes a Thorough Search.
TRAIL is LOST IN WOODS NEAR BELLEVUE
Huber, Whom McCarty wounded, Nay
and In that Event II is
Thought There VIII He No
Prosecution of the Cnsc.

John Huber still lies at the post hospital
at Fort Crook, but Jesse McCarty, the man
who shot him is still at large. According
to the report of the surgeons in charge
Huber will pull through all right, as the
wound is not deemed to be serious. The
only trouble feared is continued hot weather.
In case this ensues blood poisoning will
mostly likely result. Sheriff Sam Startzler of
Sarpy county did the best he could in hunt
ing for McCarty and secured the country
thoroughly. On his tour through the river
lands and woods the sheriff was accom-
panied by a representative of The Bee and It
can truthfully be said that every effort was
made to capture McCarty.
The sheriff picked up the trail just out
of Fort Crook and ran 1t 20 Bellevue. At
this point he. secured the help of w. r. Pat
rick. who assisted in following the trail
TO the timber north of the depot. In the
thick woods the trail was lost and an effort
was then made to see if McCarty had not
escaped to low by the boat which plies
across the river at Bellevue. 1t was impos-
sible to ascertain this and the sheriff re-
turned to Bellevue and enlisted two trusty
men in his service to watcn Jim McCarty's
house and other points. At noon yesterday
Sheriff Startzler returned to his home at
L dpiiilon 10 SECURE neeucu rest. n lew
deputies are still on the hunt, but no very
active work is being done. 1t is thought
that If Huber RECEIVERS there Will be no com
plants filed and Jesse McCarty will be al
lowed to return to mis- old haunts unino-
Tested.
1t is almost impossible 70 lind any OF the
McCartys when they want to get away, as
they know the country in the nuighborhcod
of Bellevue thoroughly. Several caves have
been found within the last few years. where
1t is thought the McCartys HID in times
of trouble. When Vic McCarty was in the
county Jail prior to his being sentenced to
twenty years in the penitentiary he stated
to Eli H. Doud, his attorney, that if he
could only get back to Bellevue he would
defy the sheriff and all his deputies to fiId
Vic further asserted that he had three
months provisions planted in a certain
place and could live this length of time
without showing his face. The sheriff and
others think Jesse is aware Of his brothers
hiding places and has taken advantage of
this knowledge. TIL pursuit Is considered
to be useless work and it is likely that it
will soon be abandoned.

CLOSE OF THE GRAND OPERA
Third and Most Successful Season
Under Maurice Grau is Com

LONDON, July 23.-The third season of
grand opera under Maurice Grau closes to-
morrow evening. 1t has been the most sue
cessful financially of the three, and |artisti-
cally 1t has been their equal. The features
have been the Introduction to the London

renewed and strengthened their hold on the
English public.
At the close Of the season Mr.. Grau will
retire to his home at Croissy, near Paris,
where he will devote his time to consum-
mating the plans he has outlined for his
coming American season. 1t Is his fervent
hope that 1t will surpass his past one, which
from all points Of view, both artistically and
financially, marked a new era in the operate

ENGLISH PRESS IS GENEROUS
American Athletes Are Praised and
Reasons for Their Defeat
Are Pointed Out.

LONDON, July 24.-All the morning pa
pers publish editorials expressing congratu-
lations on the immense success Of the ath-
letic meeting at the Queens club on Satur-
day and expressing the hope that it will
not be the last of such contests. All compli-
ment the members of the American team
upon their splendid performance.
The Daily Graphic thinks the climate had
something to do with the result and says:
1T is easy to beiieve the rumor that ill
ness was the cause of Harvard's record
holder in the half mile running far below his
FORM
The Standard says: ANY hostility which
may ever have existed between the two
people has been owing to their ignorance
of each other and nothing is better calcu-
lated to remove it than such meetings as
those of Saturday. Diplomacy and COM
merce create jealousies quite as much as
they remove them, but much good is likely
to result from the social intercourse which
is now springing up between those in whose
hands will be the shaping of the Anglo
Saxon race. We trust the meeting may
take firm root as an annual gathering
The Daily Telegraph says: both countries
ought to be proud of their representatives.
Such scenes are worth going miles to see,
not merely for their own sake, but for what
they imply of keen and brotherly COMPETE
ton between two sections of the Anglo
Saxon race"
Dealing with the defeat of the much
dreaded Burke the Daily Telegraph says it
is only fair to admit that he was not in
fair trim.
The Times says: "Englishmen would not
have grudged the Americans their triumph
in the least degree II the fortunes had been
reversed. AS it Is they will feel that a
victory is a very little thing compared
with the pluck and sportsmanlike spirit dis
played by both sides, and with the friendly
relations between the two branches of the
Anglo-Saxon race, Of which they trust this
match is a token"
TIL sporting papers are unusually en-
thusiastic over the brilliant success of the
meeting and are especially pleased at the
proof that Englishmen are not deficient in
stamina The Sportsman and Sporting Life
each devote nearly a page to a description
of the meeting.
