Toronto, Ont, April 22-The loss by

ance experts, it is now said, will reach

Already a number of firms have Sc

Of dynamiting the stnding walls OF
the ruined buildingssks begun. As
soon as the insurance claims can be
adjusted or appraised gangs of men
will be engaged to clear away the de-

trophe the majority of them take q
hopeful view of the situation and from
what can be gathered the buildings de-
stroyed will speedily be replaced by
more pretentioGs structures.

Washington, April 22-When the

elections resumed its investigation of
the protests against Senator, Reed
Smoot Calvin Cobb, publisher Of the
Boise Statesman, was examined in re-
gard to polygamy in Idaho and the in.
fluence of Mormons on the politics of
the state. He said there is no statute
against polygamous cohabitation,. al
though several unsuccessful efforts
had been made to enact such statute.
ALL gof these measures, he said, had
died in the legislature, which is about
one-third Mormon. '*'''
In regard to the Mormon influence
in the state MI. Cobb said that the
chairman Of the state organizations of
both parties goes to Salt Lake before
every campaign and both come back

Gay American and British Warships
Fought Under Jap Flag.
Berlin, April pa correspondent
Of the Frankfurter letting, writing
from Hardin, Manchuria, under date
Of March 16, says: a.
Great bitterness has been aroused
throughout Manchuria against Amer.
leans and British because it is be.
ieved American and British vessels
took part in the bombardments Of Port
Arthur under the Japanese flag. This
belief apparently is due to the fact
that the Japanese fleet was larger
than the Russians anticipated and in
cluded unknown types of vessels. The
feeling is so strong that Americans
and British are not safe anywhere in
Manchuria. One Rally, an American,
and several others, including David
son, a Canadian, have disappeared.
The authorities are looking for them.
1T is reported that an knglishman
was arrested in Port Arthur as a spy
and was taken to Mukden and hanged.
THE plying of the so called -four
boats on the Lao river, mostly under
the American flag and carrying Amer.
lean goods, has been prohibited"

ESTIMATING COST OF WAR.
II It Lasts Eighteen Months Russia
Will Be Out $40O, ooo, 900.

Paris, April pa dispatch to the
Temps from st. Petersburg says the
cost Of the war up to April Is, in all
branches of the service, is officially
estimated at $46,250,000. The cost by
June will reach $100,O00,000. The al
lotment for June is S15,O0O,OOO for the
army and 100000 for the navy.
The Transsiberian railway, the dis
patch adds. will show a deficiency of
$22,500,O00 for the year. If the war
lasts eighteen months it is estimated
that the total cost will be $400, 1000, 900.
The government, it is further assert
ed, could meet all it's obligations by
having recourse to it's gold reserve,
but this is considered undesirable,
politically and financially: An increase
of the duties is also not:A esired. as
1t would add to the burden of the peo-
pie. Therefore, if the need arises, the
government will have recourse to
