MONTANA
MINE IS ON FIRE
Extensive Damage to Northern Pa

Special to The Journal.

Special to The Journal.
Bozeman, Mont, March News was
received in this city last night that fire
was raging in the coal mine of the North
ern Pacific Railroad company at Chest
nut, near here. The reports indicate that
the damage done is extensive.
Later accounts received to-day from
Manager White of the mines are to the
effect that he believes he has the fire prac-
ticaly under control, though at present
it is impossible to ascertain anything def
mite. The fire was discovered by him in
the upper level Of the mine, after it had
been burning several hours.
From the condition Of affairs Mr.. White
is convinced that the fire is ;of ineendiary
origin and has offered "a reward of $500
for the arrest of the guilty person. The
vein of coal in the Northern Pacific mine
is perpendicular, affording no opportunity
to flood the workings, nor: is there much
chance to smother the flames, the fire be-
+ ing in an awkward place.
AS far as possible the approaches to the
fire have been bulkheaded and it is hoped
to smother the blaze. All operations at
the Northern Pacific. mine have been sus-
pendedsifor at least two weeks. Over 200
men are idle. -.s-ssss-s,:
The Northern Pacific Railway company
took charge of the mine at Chestnut sew
eral months ago, and from it was secured
| the greater part of the. fuel used by the
engines on the Eastern Montana division.
It is one of the, largest coal mines in the
state. Manager White to-day would give
no estimate as to the probable amount OF
damage done.

Opposition to curtiss.
The action of the state board Of agri-
culture in appointing a committee to go
before the trustees of the Iowa state
college at Ames and urge the selection of
Professor c. F.. Curtiss for the presidency
to'succeed w. M. Beardshear, has aroused
the opponents of Curtiss and there is the
hottest kind of a contest on. The en-
gineering and science departments are
hostile to the agricultural end; and do
not want Curtiss. t.'s ..-..
All the alumni of the departments Of
engineering and science favor a man who
cannot be regarded as identified with the
agricultural interests. They fear that
the agricultural end will simply run away
with the other departments and absorb
the bulk of the appropriations.
Chairman J. B. Hungerford Of Carroll
of the board of trustees, has declared in
favor of Professor e. M. Stanton, now
acting president. He has been connected
with the college for thirty mine years,
being the oldest professor there
Heston a Candidate. u
While there have been others men
| toned, there are but two avowed candi-
dates-Professor J. w. Heston, president
OF the South Dakota Agricultural COL

School of Technology Of California. The
candidacy Of neither, Mr.. Hungerford
| says, has been considered seriously It
| is we'll understood that the plan of the
agricultural interests in case of the ad-
vancement Of Curtiss to the presidency
is to advance Professor P. G. Holden, now
of the department of agronomy, to dean
of the department of agriculture, the 30
sition now held by Curtiss. -.
