in East Toledo, was totally destroyed
by fire last night and the loss on the
building and contents is nearly mil
lion dollars. 1t is not known how
much insurance is on the 100000
bushels of wheat, but on the building
it is $1S5.000. The building was a
mass of ruins in half hour after the
first blaze was noticed. The work of
the fire department was futile, and
most of their energies were directed to-
ward saving the adjoining property.

THE county officials have moved
in the matter of enforcing the alien
labor law. Under the direction OF
County Attorney Goode, Sheriff
Bradbury has notified the railroad
companies employing Japanese
labor, including the Great Northern,
that they must forthwith discharge
all employees whom they are for
hidden to employ under the statute.
The sheriff's letter of notification
is dated June 2, but the q. n.
Railway evidently has no inten-
ton of complying as they appear to
be increasing their force of Japs
here at Bonners Ferry where they
maintain large extra gang OF Jap
nationality, as we'll as large force
of Jap section men. The HERALD
belives that state and county
officials should be as prompt In
prosecuting powerful corporations
for violation of the laws as they are
in bouncing onto the striker, who
some times goaded to desperation
oversteps the bounds of the law
If we have any sympathy with
either it is with the latter.

The HERALD entertains the
highest regard for forr-er Senator
Dubois, as is well known, but we
believe he is awfully mistaken
when he states that there is no dis
Indignation in the silver republican
party. Kootenai has been the
banner silver republican county in
the state and right now it is a
matter of doubt if there is ever an
other silver republican convention
in Kootenai, for reasons stated in
these columns last week. Fred is
about the only silver republican of
any consequence in the state who
has not lost all confidence in demo-
cratic sincerity and square dealing,
and we make the prediction now
that his fidelity to their interests
will be met with characteristic
treachery in the long run.

Price Nov. mo word of an official ma

MINERS PROVING ALIBIS.
Proceedings In the Trials Before
Federal Court at Moscow

Moscow. Ida, Nov. 2.-In the trial of
the Coeur d'Alene miners for interfer-
ing with the mails, the prosecution
closed its case at noon yesterday. Dur
ing the proceedings the defense made
a motion to strike out of the case all
the testimony by witnesses who had
testified before the coroner's jury on the
death of Smith and Cheyne, who were
killed on April 29, the day of the al
legged obstruction of tie mails.
The ground taken was that the de-
fense had been refused access to tho
records of this proceeding, and there
fore the defendants were deprived Of
the opportunity to use evidence given
prior to the present testimony for pur-
poses of impeachment; that if the rec
oTls were on hand they anticipated no
trouble in showing that some of the
witnesses were false or mistaken in the
statements made in the court. The de-
fense introduced ten witnesses who at
tempted to prove alibis for the prison..
ers.
Today many witnesses were intro
duced by the defense and the testi-
mOny was presented to show that all the
prisoners except one was engaged in
other business, and were not present
when the mill was blown up; that they
were not part of the mob that de-
layed the mail train.
The defense will put three more wit
nesses on the stand tomorrow, and this
will finish the evidence.

the Twenty-third street ferry he and his
trainer jumped into a cab and were driven
to the Vanderbilt hotel, where he will re-

when he VIII leave for Coney island. As
Jeffries walked into the hotel. comment on
the Californian'S general appearance was
heard. Criticism was of a favorable ma
ture. HIS shoulders appear to be broader
than ever, but mis- limbs appeared rather
small
Although Sharkey had planned to come
to the City tonight, he changed his mind
at the last moment and decided to remain
at his training quarters at Newdorp. S. l..
until tomorrow morning, when he will
leave for the battlefield
Many sporting men from different parts
of the country arrived in the city tonight.
Many OF the visitors seemed to favor
Sharkey. but they asked for odds of 10 to5
and as a result they made few wagers.
The sale of seats for the contest has
been enormous. and the indications point
to the largest assemb,age ever seen at the
ringside in this country. Every box and
more than half the reserved seats have
been sold up To midnight tonight. AS the
management of the Coney Island club is
charging SO more for boxes than was ever
asked for a championship battle in this
vicinity before all concerned will reap a
rich harvest. The winner of the contest
will receive t1ree-quarters of 662a per cent
of the gross receipts. 1t was estimated to-
night that the winners share would be
about $4,000 quite a snug sum for an
evenings work.
Jeffries and Sharkey are scheduled to
enter tho ring at 9:45 o'clock. Each prin-
cipai has promised to be in the quarters
at the club house at $3.50.
Preceding the big event there will be a
ten-round bout between KID Goulette of
Rochester and Tommy Moran of Brook

will be called at S:15
After supper tonight Jeffries said he
was in excellent spirits. He was asked
if his face was not a trifie drawn, and
admitted that it was.
