FIRE FIEND.
Loss of Over Million at

City Narrowly Escapes Most
Appalling ConfIagration.
Fire Remarkable fer Rapidly With
Which 1t Spread.

Winnipeg Man, Oct. 12.-NeVer in
the history of Winnipeg has the city
been visited by more APPALLING fire
than that which, Tuesday night, de-
stroyed two important business blocks
and in two hours did damage estimat-
ed ut nearly 81 100000 The fire was re-
marka bic for the marvellous rapidlty
with which it spread. At one period
it looked as if the contiagration was
about to rival those of Toronto and OF
taWa, but the fire was checked and
danger to the Union Bank and Leland
hotel was averted. No lives We're lost
No correct forecast of the damage is at
present possible. but it may be fairly
accurately summarized as follows:
New Bulman block, with stock val
ue. 5000, 900; totally destroyed.
J. II. Ashdown's block, value 100000
totally destroyed.
Davis block. partially damaged
Rialto block badly damaged by wa
ter. smoke ana heat
The firms financially affected are:
Bullman Brothers. engravers and
fire art printers; ]. II. Ashdown, hard
ware; l.. Nickel & Co, Bruce e Co, J.
and G. "leghorn, manufacturing
agents; steele & Co. photographers;
Dufferin CO., and Kingston Smith
Arms CO.
The fire originated in the pullman
block and aided by chemicals the
flames were soon pouring out of the top
Of that structure. Tongues of fire
many yards in length shot out on all
sides and soon reached out over Ash
downs. The flames leaped across Ash
natinc avenue and threatened Ban
fields, the Leland hotel and Rialto
block. The fire also attacked the Davis
block and the Woodbine hotel The
walls of the burned blocks have fallen
in ard though the firemen have the
blaze under control, the ruins will burn
for several days.

ALMOST A BUMPER CROP.
.,463, ,724.000 Bushels of Corn Indicated.

New York, Oct. 12-The Journal of
Commerce and Commercial Bulletin
says: The October report of the De-
partmeut of Agriculture fails to con-
firm the estimate of ]. J. Hill and
others regarding the damage to the
corn crop. 1t indicates Il yield of >, 463,-
724,oO0 bushels, according to the quanti-
tative Interpretation of Nj. J. 9.
Brown, the Produce Exchange Statis-
tician. Mr.. Hill, it will be recalled
stated that the crop would not exceed
1000, 900 900 bushels.
The meaning of the report. SO far as
corn is concerned, is that We are to
have very nearly a bumper crop, as the
present promise has been but twice eX-
ceeGed. and then but very slightly, by
the 2,523, ,64S, OGO crop of 1902 and the
1850, 100000 bumper crop of 1899. The
department gives the conditions Of corn
on oct. J. as S3.9 compared With 81. G on.
month ago, sos on Oct. /. 1898, 1916 ut
the corresponding date in 1862, and a
ten-year average of .S.3.
The department also gives a pre-
llminary estimate of The average Yield
pei acre of spring wheat as l2.1
bushels, subject to revision when the
final estimate is made in December.
The average quality of spring wheat is
l5.I, as compared with So in 1901 and
Sl.1 III 1902. Easing the yield per acre
on the published acreage we have a
promised spring wheat yield of 1885,
600 bushels, which exceeds the Septem-
Der estimate by about 12,OO0, 900 bushels
ahd makes the total wheat-spring and
Winter-harvest outlook just that much
larger. The present outlook is for a
'''1 ,0SS, ,O10-buShel wheat yield. which is
considers bly, below the average of the
past three years, but is in excess of the
crops Of 1899 and 1900. :

MARRIAGE-DlVORCE.
Report of Committee Of Committee Of
Methodist Episcopal Church.

Chicago. Ill. Oct. 12.-After dis
cussions lasting nearly a week. the re-
port OF the committee on marriage and
divorce was presented at the close OF
the 65th Rock River conference of
the Methodist Episcopal church here.
The report recommended long
courtship-long enough to test the
quality of love. The Importance of
the permanence of the marriage tie
was emphasized as having direct
bearing on human development. The
committee was unanimous in MAIN
tanning that a marriage was contract
ed until death doth part" The bond
was declared to be indissoluble and
never TO be entered into irreverently
or inadvisedly.
The principal contention that di-
vided the committee was upon the
question of recognizing as a candidate
for second marriage the innocent
party to divorce decree The decis-

AWFUL DEATH
First Threshing Accident of The
Season Near Ada, Nor
man County.

Saturday near Ada. Norman
county, occurred the first thresh-
ing accident and the result, the
death Of John Hon, one of the
crew, and the fatalinjury of Christ
Rockstad and another mem Der of
the crew, was most terrible. The
accident was caused by the break
ing of culvert and the topping
OF the heavy engine into the ditch
while the steam was on full blast.
John Hon was caught in the hv
wheel and ground into horrible
manner, as we'll as being thrown
directly under the mass Of steel
and iron. Death was ms tantane-
Gus and when his remains we're
removed from the wreckage a
half hour afterWard they were a
most pitible spectacle. Christ
Rockstad was thrown under the
heavy mass Of iron and one of his
lower limbs so badly Iacerated
and torn that it had to be ampu-
tated. One other memb Der of the
crew was severely injured but
will recover all right without be-
ing married
