FIRE AT COLUMBIA.
Business Portion of Town Destroyed
Loss %SIOO,0OO.

Goldfeld, New. July ia fire babe
fair to destroy the town of Columbia, at
the foot of Columbia mountain, a mile
north of here this evening. The flames
however. guided by a southeast wind,
burned themselves out after destroying
the principal business block. entailing a
loss of 800, coo. 1t was well nigh
miraculous that there was no loss OF
life, for while the fire was at its height
there were two great explosions, one
of gasoline and another of thousands oil
percussion caps that blew out the walls
of a dozen store houses.
The fire started in the Office Of Wells.
Fargo Express, in the rear of the mer-
chandiss store of Lothrop & Davis, from
the explosion Of a gasoline lamp. The
flames had gained considerable head
way before an alarm was given, and by
that time the best business block in the
town was doomed.
The fire swept from one building to
another ON the north side of Main
street, and all the volunteer iremen
could do was to save the buildings on
the whole south side of the street.
These included the newly remodeled
Merchants Hotel, on which $50. 900 had
just been expended, aud which was
twice on fire from the sparks.
The estimated losses are: Coburn &
Jarvis, general merchandise, $50. 900
Lothrop & Davis. store and warehouses,
$50. 900 Wells-Fargo. $1,000 /; postoffice,
$500 Benson's drug store, $4,000 Tele-
phone Exchange. $500 Frisco clothing
store, $500; Aubrey's saloon, $500
Commercial restaurant, $1,000; Solo
mons furniture store, $500 Nye &
Ormsby County branch bank, $1,000 (; S.
COINS clothing store, $500 Dunlap &
Hicks sampling works, $1,000; Fashion
lodging house, $500. There was little
or no insurance.

Sugar Drops 20 Cents a Hundred.

Sugar Drops 20 Cents a Hundred.
A reduction of 20 cents per 100 pounds
in all grades of sugar has been an
nounced. The cut is attributed to the
weakness of the raw sugar market, the
price of that article having recently
dropped IA cents per pound. The de-
cline in raw sugar has been in a mea-
sure caused by the excellent prospects
in Europe for a large increase in the
beet sugar output. and the crop, which
forms a little more than one-half of the
worlds output, will come into the
market in August.

In the reflected light of that gentle
mems affair between the President aud
the Secretlry of the Navy BY which the
latter came free Of the law. it is inter-
esting to consider those ''gentlemen's
agreements" which describe a con-
dition that has become so fundamental
and primary to business as ordinarily
to excite no comment.
The ''gentlemen's agreement IN
business aud industry. to which the
Roosevelt. Morton incident in official
life is related, is the means by which
the public is laid under the yoke. The
Beef Trust is one Of the shining ex-
amples of how individuals can consIire
to exploit the public for mutual profit.
The entire public is alive to the fact
that we are more or less the slaves Of
the Beef Trust, Standard Oil Trust,
Sugar Trust, Steel Trust, and other
combinations IF such magnitude
that they are spelled with a big I.
Not a whit less do we lie in subsection
to the unregulated fancies of comforting
railroad officials.
The road for which the retiring Secre-
tary Of the Navy formerly acted, the
Santa Fe, has for many years been an
