Lansdowne, and the British commander
m-chief OF the forces, Lord Woseley, APP
rear to have reached such pitch that but
for the exigencies of the situation Lord
Wolseley would have resigned. 1t seems
that Lord Lansdowne attempted to usurp
some OF the authority always heretofore
welded by the commander-in-ch and
the latter is now said to have laid the
whole matter before Lord Salisbury.
The list of casualties now coming
through indicates that there was severe
lighting before the Thirteenth Yeomanry
surrendered. Already the names of nine
teen men killed and twenty eight wounded
have been issued. The killed include Sir
John Elliott Cecil Power, baronet, and
among the wounded is the Earl of Long

munication was cut off soon after the first
news of the fire came and was not re-
sumed until this evening. The flames
broke out at the Moon & Kerr mill. on
the shore of Silver Lake, southwest of
the town. The plant consists of number
of large buildings beside the mill and IL
was among these that the FIRE started
The main business section of the city
is about five blocks from the mill and over
this intervening territory the flames
spread, being carried directly to the bust
ness buildings by a high wind. Within
one hour the fire destroyed everything
beIween the mill and the railroad station
eight blocks away
The path of the flame was as clean cut
as that of cyclone. an indication of the
great force of the wind. o. p. Kenny S
bank, situated in a two-story frame build
ing, was in ruins ten miutes after the
flames reached 1t. The territory over
which the fire Travelled covered about
twelve blocks, about nine of which were
thickly built up.
Tonight there Is not business house,
hotel or store standing in Virginia The
residence portion of the town was only
partially burned. The schoolhouse and
most of the churches were untouched.
The loss is estimated at $4,000. The in
surance Is believed TO be not over sl25, 600.
The Moon & Kerr saw mil was burned.
hut the stock of cut lumber Is thought 10
have been saved. The water plant of the
city was directly in the path OF the flames.
The terrific force of the flames is shown
by the fact that they jumped the rail-
road tracks at the eastern side of the vii
lage cleared a half-mile of barren ground
and burned three beer houses and several
railroad cars of the Duluth and Iron
Range Railroad. SO far as known no lives
were lost.
The people are in urgent need OF relief.
There is little food left in the town and
women and children are without places
to sleep or any covering.
The fire was over at. o'clock. Loss
probably 100000. About one hundred
buildings were burned altogether. prac-
tically in the business section alone.
