MANY HOMES
ARE DESTROYED
Fire Originates in Victoria
Iron Works and Spreads
to Residences of the City
Loss MAY REACH $15O,OO0
Sparks Scatter and Many
Cottages Burn Before Fire
men Can Subdue Flames
Loss MAY REACH S15O,OOO
Special Dispatch to The Call.

VICTORIA, B. c.. Aug. 9.-About
sixty families are rendered homeless
and property to the approximate value
of s15O,OOO is destroyed as the result Of
a fire which started in the Albion Iron
Works, in the tenderloin district, this
afternoon.
Flames broke out in a pattern room
of the iron works and destroyed large
section of the building, together with
machinery valued at $4,000. High wind
carried the sparks a quarter Of a mile
away TO the residential part of the city
north of Douglas street, where about
forty houses were destroyed in less
than two hours. The fire department
was occupied at the iron works pre-
venting the spread of flames in the
immediate vicinity and allowed the fires
to the north to get beyond control be-
fore tackling them. Adjoining the iron
works are the extensive timber yards
of SaywaTds and the gas works.
If the flames had spread over that
section half of Victoria would have
been in ashes now. but this danger was
averted. The wind, while strong. held
steadily toward the northwest and so
doomed to destruction only a small
section of the city which 10 bounded to
the north and west by open fields.
The fire did it's work with rapidity,
but owing to the assistance of many
volunteers, including sailors from her
Majesty's navy, Esquimalt and soldiers
from barracks, large proportion of
furniture and personal effects Of the
residents in the fire area was saved.
When the fire department arrived on
the scene from the iron works nothing
could be done, as the water pressure
was quite insufficient, the burning sec
tiOn being on high ground. VictOrians
were alarmed at this, as it was real
lied that only the direction of the wind
prevented a great calamity, and that
the fire-fighting apparatus was prac-
tically worthless unless the water sup
ply improved. The homes destroyed
were mostly those of the better class of
working people, and the loss will be
felt by many.
Insurance, generally speaking, will
not cover a third of the loss sustained.
The fire burned itself out at o'clock.

COURT TO HEAR
WOES OF ODDIE
Millionaire Mining Man of
Tonopah Has Instituted
Proceedings fors Divorce
CRUELTY is ALLEGED
Sensational Developments
Are Expected in the Event
That Wife Makes Contest
Special Dispatch to The Call.

RENO, New Aug. 9.-The trouble
which has been pending for several
weeks between Millionaire Tasker L..
Oddie, the we'll known mining man of
Tonopah, and his wife, has finally cul-
minated in a suit for divorce. The hus-
band, through his attorneys in San
Francisco, has instituted proceedings
for a permanent separation from his
wife in the court at Belmont. He
charges cruelty.
The complaint has been served on
Mrs. Oddie, who will be represented in
court by Attorney Bartlett of Tonopah
who has announced that the suit will
be bitterly contested.
Those who are acquainted with the
Oddies look for some sensational de-
velopments during the progress of the
case, for it is expected that if the wife
insists in fighting her husband, he will
file an amended complaint based on
more serious accusations.
Since the announcement, made in San
Francisco several weeks ago, that Od-
die was in that city consulting with his
lawyers concerning a divorce suit, the
relatives of his wife have been busily
engaged in trying to effect a reconcilia-
tion between husband and wife, and
for a time it was thought that they
had succeeded in their efforts. Shortly
after Oddie returned to Tonopah from
the bay, statements appeared in the
Carson and Reno papers announcing
that he had acted hastily in his charges
against his wife and that the matter
had finally been settled in an amicable
way. 1t is now claimed that these
statements did not emanate from the
husband.
Mrs. Oddie is the daughter Of Rich
ard Mcdonald, who gained considerable
notoriety in San Francisco some years
ago in connection with the failure of
the Pacific and the Peoples Home Saw
ings banks. She was reared in Carson
City and married Oddie last December

TRAIN KILLS HIS HORSE,
ANOTHER WRECKS MACHINE
A. l.. Whitney Brings Two Suits
Against Southern Pacific Com
Daov i'm Justices' Court

A. L. Whitney has evidently had
hard luck with the trains Of the
Southern Pacific Company, judgi 1g
from the complaints in two suits filed
against the corporation YESTERDAY in
the Justices Court. The hase COM
plaint alleges that a train at Beres-
ford, San Mateo County, ran into a
horse belonging to Whitney on De-
cember IL last, killing the animal,
Whitney demands the sum OF S299 for
the loss of his horse.
The complaint in the second suit
recites that Whitney was operating an
automobile on August II, 1908, and
while crossing the track near Beres-
ford his machine stalled, owing to the
gravel. Whitney noticed train
speeding down the track and realizing
that he could not move his automobile
one way or the other, he ran down
the track and signaled the engineer to
stop. Whitney alleges that either the
engineer did not see his frantic signs
or else maliciously disregarded them
and as a result his automobile was
torn, twisted and rendered yalueless
by the impact of the engine. He says
he was obliged to spend $299 TO re-
pair the automobile and demands that
amount from the Southern Pacific
Company.

Prof. w. A. Setchell Brings
Back Collection to
University.

BERKELEY, Aug. 9.-Professor Will
liam A. Setchell, head of the depart
ment of botany at the University of
California, returned to the University
to-day after spending a year abroad in
travel and research work. In the
course of his travels Professor Setchell
visited all the great botanical gardens
Of the world. Leaving California in
May last he went East, crossed over
into Europe, touched every continental
power, as we'll as England, and then
completed the circumnavigation of the
globe via the antipodes. Besides ad-
ding much to his own store of knowl-
edge, Professor Setchell was mindful
of the University's interest and Cali
fornia will be much the gamer through
his extensive visit on account of the
specimens of plant life that he has coll
lected.
''On my way East" said Professor
Setchell to-day at the Faculty Club Il
visited the botanical departments of
most of the universities and had a
good chance to compare their methods
with ours. i also visited the DOIanlcaI
gardens in Dublin, London, Sweden,
Holland, st. Petersburg, India, the
Dutch East Indies and Australia. In all
these places 1 found that considerable
research work is being done, some of
which concerned the problem of life
origin, such as Professor Hugo de Vries
of the University of Amsterdam is in
terested in. They devote a great deal
of time to botanical science in Holland
and Sweden and the gardens there are
extensive.
The time 1 gave to study and re-
search work was necessarily limited on
account OF my extensive itinerary,
though 1 was enabled to gather some
new ideas from association with the
botanists of Europe. 1 spent a large
part of my time at Trinity College in
Dublin and at st. Petersburg. At Trim
ity College l was able to gather col
lection of sea weed, such as are found
in the collections there, and these will
be valuable for study and classification
here. In fact L gathered materials at
nearly every place l visited, so that the
botany department will be benefited in
at least one way by my trip"
Professor Setchell will resume his
place as head of the department of
botany when the regular University
session opens this month.

214S Center Street, Aug. 9.
Redmond c. Stats, member of the
Board of Trustees from the Seventh
Ward, insists that he will stand by the
| announcements that he hurled in the
teeth of his colleagues last night when
! he declared he would resign. Stats
feels hurt by the indignities which he
thinks have been heaped upon him, and
will not entertain any requests to re-
consider his resignation. He set all ru-
mOrs at rest tonight by saying that he
would most emphatically decline to re-
call his action.
4 stand by what l said last night in
/ the board meeting" the irate Trustee
declared. Il said that 1 wished my
resignation 10 take effect on September
l and l will insist upon its being ac-
cepted. If l cannot get what l want in
my own district from the board it
seems to me 1 may as we'll quit 1 re-
peat what 1 said last night, that if the
other members are going to usurp the
right to run my ward, then l will get
out. Trustees HOff and Dowd have
lately voted against me on everything
l have brought up. But 1 did not care
so much until they showed such mani
fest unfairness in this matter"
The question that precipitated the
quarrel was one concerning the widen
ing of Derby street to make it of uni
form width. There are two or three
houses that encroach upon the street,
and ii only needs that these shall be set
back in order to straighten out the
avenue. Hoff and Dowd and the other
members of the board take the ground
that the Improvement is for the benefit
of the city at large, and that it will
be less a hardship on the people to
have the work done now than later,
when the property will be so much
more valuable
