where. BY IL o'clock every piece of
fire apparatus in Silver Bow county
was at the scene of the fire. The fire
departments from the Rarus. Cora.
Parrot, Original. Gagnon, Anaconda
and other mines responded with alac-
rity and rendered great service. The
fire battalions from the Centennial
brewery. from VAUDEVILLE. from Will
hamburg, the Butte Reduction works
and other places answered the general
alarm and lent valuable assistance.
The Maule. York. Barrett, Wood
worth and Ogden blocks were wholly
destroyed. The following are among
the estimated losses: Simonds store,
Maule and York blocks, owned by the
New York Realty company. 100000:

more than 20 others. All those who
met death were in the private car OF

was attached to the rear of the loca;
train. In the car at the time of the
collision were about dozen men who
had been engaged in overhauling the
car. Those who were not killed were
injured. The local train was made up
in the yard on the north side of the
railroad and switched across to this
east-bound track No. on the south
side, end came to stop at the station.
Before the switches could be set the
New York limited came along at mol
crate speed on the No. 2 east-bound
track, took the cross-over switch and
crashed into the local train. The force
of the collision was so great that the
engine of the limited ploughed ten feet
into the private car, and the latter was
forced half way through the Gay coach
ahead.

MONARCHY FACES CRISIS.
Serious Danger of Hungarian Revo-
luton in Austria-Censure for
Franz Josef.

London. Sept. 26.-Special dispatches
from Budapest to this mornings Lon
don newspapers indicate that the excite
ment consequent on the strained rela-
lions between the crown and the united
opposition in the Hungarian diet is in
creasing and that, while the leaders OF
the coalition parties are counseling the
people to refrain from violating the law.
inflammatory speeches are being made
by prominent persons in various socie-
ties of the country. and that. probably
for the first time. the personal popular
ity of the king-emperor is being as
sailed.
The executive committee of the coali-
ton parties. summoned to discuss tho
situation arising from the uultimatum
presented to the Hungarian leaders by
the king-emperor, has passed what
amounts to severe vote of censure of
his majesty and his advisers. In the
resolution the committee expresses the
deepest regret that the king-emperor
did not listen to the statesmen sum-
moned by him to Vienna. who represent
the majority in the Hungarian parlia-
ment and constitute the leaders of tie
nation in its public affairs.

BANK FAILS.
Institution in Kansas City Goes into
Voluntary Liquidation-The
Cause.

Kansas City, Mo, Sept. 26.-The
Kansas City state bank, Wiley o. Cox,
president, failed to open its doors
Monday. having gone into VOLUNTARY
liquidation. The bank had loaned
$l6S, Goo to the bank of Salmon & Sal
mon at Clinton, Mo-. which failed las.
July. catching depositOrs for several
hundred thousand dollars. The Kansas
City state bank was organized in 1885
and had capital of 100000. The last
statement showed loans of 100000:
deposits. s475O.O00; surplus, $4,000.
Ever since the failure of the Salmon &
Salmon bank at Clinton, Mo-, the
banks business has been on decline.
Many large depositors withdrew their
accounts because of the fact that the
bank had advanced the Salmons more
Than 100000 on collateral that is now
said by bankers to be gilt-edged. At
that time the value of the collateral
was problematical and timid deposit
ors fastened to close their accounts.
This caused heavy drain on the re-
sources of the bank, and in order to
avert trouble. the officers of the insti-
tuition decided upon liquidation as the
easiest way out of a perplexing f1nan-
cial tsngle. The Kansas City state
bank holds $567.O0O of the city's mon
ey. Wiley o. Cox, president of the
Kansas City state bank. is one of the
eldest and best-known men in Missou-
ri. The Fidelity Trust company vol
rnteered to pay the city treasury the
amount of the city's funds on deposit
IN the Kansas City state bank. but the
money was not withdrawn.

There is encouraging evidence that
the lynching mania Is dying out in
the South under the pressure of pub
/, lie sentiment and the vigorous action
of such men as Gov. Vardaman, Of
Mississippi. The year thus far has
recorded fewer of these cases of mob
violence than any similar period for a
number of years. Repression of this
form Of violence and lawlessness viii,
