Strikers Block Toronto Car Lines.
 TORONTO, Ont, June 23.-The first attempt made by the Toronto Street railway to run their cars with men hired to take the places of the striking motormen and conductors was met with violence. Only one effort was made to reopen the traffic, and the tenn per shown by tffe strikers and their sympathizers convinced the officials that it would be impossible to run cars without strong protection. It was therefore decided to appeal to the au- thorities for troops and to suspend op- erations until their arrival.

FIRES IN FAR WEST.
More Than Half a Million Damage Tn Portland, Ore.
FORESTS SWEPT BY FIERCE FLAMES.
Among the Property Destroyed Were Iron Works, Shipyard and Ship ping, the Standard Oil Plant
 and Freight Warehouses.

| PORTLAND, Ore, June 23.-A fire that started shortly before midnight in the Phoenix Iron works, formerly the Wolff x Zwicker plant, burned for four
 hours and destroyed six blocks of buildings, valued at $60O,OOO. The in surance amounted to about $20O,000. It was long after daylight before the fire | burned itself out
 Ten minutes after the fire was dis covered the entire plant of the Phoenix works was in flames. The fire spread to Johnston's shipyard and to the East Side Lumber company's mill, destroy ing both. Several hundred thousand feet of dry lumber in the millyard fed the flames
 1 In the Johnston shipyard a schooner awaiting repairs and 2 barge under construction were destroyed, together with lot of valuable machinery. The fire spread to the east, taking i'll the Standard Oil company's plant and the warehouse. of Parlen Orendorff Ss Co, implement dealers. The Standard Oil company's warehouse and two oil tanks were next destroyedN
 1 Two spans of the Madison street bridge across the Willamette river were burned and fell into the river. Then the warehouse and freight depot of the Portland City and Oregon Street railway, adjoining the bridge on the west, were attacked and quickly de- stroyed. The free swimming baths moored at the bridge were in imminent danger, but were towed away in time. The fire department was badly handi- capped by lack of water, and it was after 1 o'clock in the morning before the fire was got under control. The engines could not reach the river and the main water pipes being too small, the supply was inadequate. The city has no fireboat, and it was impossible to fight the fire from the riverside.

Much Valuable Timber Turned,


 TACOMA, Wash, June 23.-Standfng timber to the amount of 550,000,000 feet has been burned in the districts along the line of the Northern Pacific. This timber comprises a splendid forest of fir and all readily accessible because it grew within a few miles of the rail- road. Two days ago these trees reared themselves in an unbroken mass; COW ering sixty three square miles of ter ritory. Today aH5that remains of them are smoldering, blackened trunks. The value of the timber destroyed is placed at S1,1O0,O0O. A special from Hot Springs, Wash, says that Lester is now the threatened point. The forests on each side of the village are in flames, and an increase. in the velocity of the wind would likely doom the town.

TERRITORIAL FAIR.
Miniature Railroad Man and His
Numerous Troubles.
OTHER INTERESTING NOTES.

The miniature railroad man is hav-
ing a hard time getting located. He
is being bumped around from one place
to another to suit the convenience of
different people. 1t looks as though
he would have to go through the usual
formal legal proceedings and secure a
franchise, TO make gSCd q iot alton
where his little engine can toot to the
content of the many children who will
enjoy a ride on the little train. His
first location was on Fourth street be-
tween Railroad and Gold avenues. The
little train interfered with certain bust
ness interest in that vicinity and by
request his location was changed
around the corner to Cold avenue, be-
tween Fourth and Fifth streets. This
morning after the little railroad track
had oeen laid and its superintendent
and general manager was congratulate
ing himself on the progress of its
building, a man appeared with kick.
This gentleman went to the fair as
sociation and made his kick good. He
gave better reasons why the little en-
CINE should not toot on Gold avenue
than the first complainant who said it
couldn't toot on Fourth street, and it is
the little railroad mans turn to move
again.
1t is almost certain that the Las
Vegas and Silver City bands will fur
nish music for the fair. Both bands
have made the fair association reason
able propositions, and they are likely
to be accepted.
Next Monday evening at 9 o'clock
the ballot box of the voting contest for
the queen of the twenty-second terri
torial fair of New Mexico, will close.
There has been some little interest
shown in the voting since yesterday
Miss Belle Yancey has advanced ten
points, making her lead the race with
90 votes. Miss jeanette Walton is Sec
ond with 5S. Miss Nina Otero, of Santa
Fe, who promised TO be a strong candi-
date, has requested her name with

Harvey Curio Department.

Herman Switzer, who has bene in
charge of the Harvey curio department
at Albuquerque, has been making some
radical changes and important i'm
provements in that department.
Mr.. Switzer announced to Citizen
reported this morning that new at
tractive feature would be added to AL
buquerque's fine collection of curios.
The new addition will be two blanket
weavers. one silversmith, a pottery
maker. and basket maker. They will
be brought from north of the conti-
mental divide and will be employed
permanently.
There has been some difficulty in Sc
curing Indians who are adept in the
art of weaving, making baskets and
pottery. Many of the near by Indians
are able only to make very crude pot
terry and baskets. The agency at this
point are sparing no efforts in secur-
ing the best artists of the trade. The
curio department have the finest and
most valuable collection of blankets
and curlos In this country. Tourists
and local travellers take great interest
in Albuquerque on this account. Quite
a number of wealthy people have sent
applications for permanent accommo-
datiCns for the winter. They are most
ly tourists who have passed through
the city and have been attracted by
the beauty of the Alvarado and our
thriving city.

Plumbers and Timers Of Pass
City Are Out.
MASTERS ARE IN TIGHT PLACE.
Proceedings Of the District Court Up
-.. to Noon Today,
KEMpENICH'S ALAMEDA STORE BURNED

Today has been a day of strikes
among the local union men. The
plumbers were not alone when a lot of
them walked out from the several
shops, as the timers in all the shops
walked out this morning and tomorrow
morning they all walk back again, a
compromise having been effected about
noon today.
The Timers Request.
Early in September the timers
served notice upon their employers
that they would ask on October l for
$3.50 for eight hours work. a reduc-
ton of one hour.
This morning at o'clock they all
refused to go to work until the matter
was adjusted About noon the en-
ployers and the journeymen cumpro-
missed by agreeing that after January
l, 1908, days work shall be eight
hours and the wages $3.50 per day.
The principal firms in the timing
business are Momsen g. Thorne, and
II. +. Bloom. Their places were de-
cidedly quiet today as far as the sound
of timing work was concerned, but all
differences are now amicably settled.
Plumbers All Out.
The plumbers are still sticking out
for their demand for raise from 81 to
IS per day, of which they gave notice
on the I'd of September to go into
effect today.
The matter Il in a verv unsettled
condition today. The matter, so far
as the master plumbers are concerned,
is that they say they are left with
thousands of dollars worth of work
on hand, which had been figured upon
with wages at 81 per day.
On the other hand the journeymen
argue that they are skilled and scien-
tific workmen, entitled to $5 per day
alongside of the high wages of other
skilled workmen of the city and that
what they ask is not unreasonable in
the face of the high cost of rents and
living in FL Paso. They also contend
that it is their skill that maintains the
shops and that s. per day is a reason
able wage, as a fair distribution of the
earnings of the business; at least. that
is what some of them argue.-El Paso

An employe named B. Falkenrich was
asleep in the building at the time the
fire occurred and it was with the great
est difficulty that he escaped with his
life.
Mr.. Kempenich, when interview by
a Citizen reporter today said that he
carried about $4,000 of merchandise
and the building was valued at $4,000,
and that it was a complete loss. Moth
ing but the books were saved
The origin of the fire is unknown.
All efforts to locate how the fire start
ed have been fruitless.
The fire was first discovered about
$3.50 last evening and within an hour
the entire building had been consum-
ed.
When asked as to whether he would
rebuild, Mr. Kempenich replied that he
had not made up his mind yet what he
would do.
Insurance amounting to 81 800 was
carried on the stock; $500 was with
the Niagara Insurance company and
SO 900 with the Liverpool, London &
Globe Insurance company. AS a very
large stock was carried this amount
will fall short of covering the loss.
Eighteen hundred dollars insurance
was carried on the building with the

five hundred miners in the employ of
the Tennessee Coal, Iron & Railroad
company, on orders from the executive
board of United Mine Workers of Am

count of the refusal of the operators
