LOSS WILL BE IMMENSE.
Many People Are Homeless and Several
Dead as the Result OF Pacific Coast
Forest Fires

Kalama, Wash, Sept. 15.-The for
est fires on Lewis river have wrought
sad havoc. D. L. Wallace, wife and
two children were burned to death.
They were camping in the woods
when caught by the fire. Their
wagon was f0and burned up and the
charred bodies were lying near. A
12-year-old boy of Mr.. Hanley's is
dead also. Mrs. John Polly and baby
and a brother, name unknown, and
Mr.. Newhouse and Mrs. Graves are
dead. Fifteen others were found
without clothing, except gunny
sacks. Five logging camps are
burned out completely. The fire has
spread from Lewis river north to the
Kalama river and so sections of the
finest timber on the coast are de-
stroyed. Oak Point, about 20 miles
below here on the Columbia river,
is totally destroyed.
A courier has just arrived from
Lewis river who stated that there
are only two houses left standing on
Lewis river from Traits place to the
head of the river, a distance of so
miles, and not less than Is persons
have persisted.
Many People Made Homeless.
Portland, Ore, Sept. 15.-About 800
people are left homeless in Multi
nomah and Clackamas counties as a
result of the forest fires which have
ragged for the past week. Fires have
burned over a wide scope of country,
but the greatest damage in this state
appears to have been done in these
two counties.
In the fire that destroyed the town
of Palmer, near Bridal Veil, two
boys named Hamilton were caught
while trying to escape from the
flames and burned to death.
The timber losses in Clackamas
county have been immense and the
whole length of the Clackamas river
presents nothing but vistas of ruined
settlements.

Speaker Of the House of Representatives
ing of it to his friends until yester-
day. At yesterdays conference his
friends implored him not to take the
action, but to no avail. He said he
had made up his mind and no argu-
ment could cause him to change his
decision. When asked for his rea-
sons for his withdrawal he said:
'You cannot kill the trusts by ap-
plying free trade without killing our
own industries. The foreign trusts
are fighting the American trusts and
do not believe that, for the purpose
of controlling American trusts, we
should make a market for foreign
trusts, thereby crushing out the in
dustries of this country. After my
conference last Saturday at Water
loo, hearing the views of the chair
man of my district, concluded that
my views on the tariff question were
at variance with those of many of
my party, and did not desire to ap-
pear in a false position"

Chicago, Sept. 15.-Corners in
grain are forever rendered practi-

is that the Chicago board of trade
