able to Locate Fire.

Butte, Mont, July 16.-At 2 40
this morning still alarm was turned
in from the Butte Hotel, four-story
structure on Broadway. When the
firemen reached the scene the build
ing was enyeloped in smoke, which
appeared to pour from every open
window. The fremen were unable
to locate the fire for 80 minutes, and
the greatest confusion prevailed. A
number of guests on the lower floors
succeeded in groping their way down
stairs in the smoke, escaping with
nothing. but their night clothes.
Scores of others were rescued from
the upper windows, where the panic
stricken guests shrieked for succor
and threatened to jump to the side
walk below.
At o'clock the fire was completely
under control and the hotel manage
ment state that, to the best of their
knowledge, all the guests and help
have been accounted for. There
were five injured. The loss will
amount to $25, 600.

TEXAS DROUGHT BROKEN.
Heavy Rainfall and High Wind at Dennison
Storm Causes Little Damage.

Dennison, Tex, July 17.-The
worst drought ever experienced in
this section was broken this afternoon
by terrific rainfall of over two hours
duration, the volume of rain being
almost equal to cloudburst. The
storm was accompanied by wind OF
almost tornado force. Reports indi-
cate that the rain is general in this
vicinity. 1t has come just in the
nick of time to save the cotton crop.
1t will benefit the fruit crop and fur
nish stock water, which had entirley
failed, causing much distress, and
will benefit lowland cotton.
