SALINAS, Oct l2-Since this morning
reports Of discouraging nature concern
ing the forest fires in the vicinity Of Sa-

fires. This afternoon they again burst into
flames ana soon more than 2OO acres OF
fine timber and underground were de-

rapidity, working back Of Prunedale and
down the canyon toward Natividad, a few
flames by the dense underground and
dry grass and leaves.

south, private dispatches received to-
night give information that a forest fire
that started this morning has got beyond
control, and t is feared that thousands
OF acres Of wooded land will be burned
over. Men there and at other points are
fighting heroically to subdue the flames

IN this section for the past two days is
still burning flercely, a change in the wind

and young trees and miles Of fences have
been destroyed, the property burned oT-r
