to its engag agements to evacuate Manchuria
although the evacuation was temporarily
delayed. Russia had also explained that
she had no intention Of adopting any
measure tending to exclude foreign con-

Ottawa. Ont. May IA fire, sus-
pected of being Of incendiary origin,
Sunday afternoon and evening, destroy
ed hundreds of houses and millions of
feet of lumber in this city. John White,
who has just been released from the
penitentiary after serving term Of
imprisonment for arson, was caught
near where the fire was first discover

and will be charged with starting Sun

The fire originated within a stones
throw of where the great Hull fire of
April 26, 1900 was checked. The Hull
fire started on the opposite side Of the
river and spread to the Ottawa side, de-
property 1t burned out near where the
Ottawa & Parry Sound railway enters
the western part of the city, and it was
in the lumber yards near the railroads
that todays fire originated.
An hour before the principal fire
started two smaller blazes were diseoV-
cred and quickly extinguished IN the
lumber yards near the Canadian Pa
third was discovered When the brig
ade arrived at the scene 1t was found
that the water main had been damaged
and no water could be obtained. When
the brigade did get water the fire was
utterly beyond its control. It swept
along over the same ground that the
former fire had gone, the only difference
being that it was going in the opposite
direction. There is large cliff which
extends from the Ottawa rver into the
corner of Margaret and Preston streets.
The fire area was on the flats below
the cliff. A two or three points it came
very near getting over the cliff and had
it done SO nothing would have saved
the city. At $3.50 tonight the fire was
under control.
For an hour not a drop of water was

the water main had been repaired the

embers From the lumber -ards the

merly known as ROchesterville. but
which is now united to the city. Every
house in the little settlement was de-
stroSed.
Another lumber yard in a thinlv set
tied section northwest of Rochesterville
was swept by the fire in an incredibly
short time. This brought the fire to
the more thicl1ly settled sections
After leaving the lumber piles the
flames swept over Pine street. which

Fifteen million feet of lumber were
destroyed. The loss on the lumber will
be about 100000 The buildings burned
were principally dwelling houses and
stores They were all built since the
last great fire and were either solid
brick or brick veneered. as the city
would not permit of any other kind be-
ing erected. From 500 to 600 families are
homeless. All the parties are supposed
to be well insured.
The mavor said the city would op~
pose any aid being asked from outside
Canada, and personally he thought that
the city should graDple with the situa-
ton without any appeal for outside
help.

This prospect has alarmed the on

by constantly watching the men. but
by removing them entirely from the
