Not Many New Cases There-Fever
Has Broken Out in Many Towns
in the Interior.

NEW ORLEANS, Aug S.-This is
the first day with the health situation
entirely in the hands of the federal
board of health and the marine hos
pital service. The quarantine regula-
tions have become so distressingly Sc
we're that Governor Blanchard deemed
it necessary to issue public statement
urging relaxation, pointing out that
many towns cannot get food, ice and
medicines, while communication by
wire and mail is impossible. The rice
crop is going to waste because sacks
and twine cannot be brought in. Six
cases of fever are reported at Bonami
10 at Patterson and four at Shreveport
Tomorrow will be a public holiday
when business houses will close and
everybody will turn out to clean uI

knew the precise location of every
case of fever in the city he could wipe
it out in 80 days.

is holding his own.

RUN ON 4 DENVER
CAUSED BY RUMORS
1t Is Savings Institution With De-
posits of Over Two Million
Dollars.

DENVER, Colo, Aug. 8.-Because
wild rumors were started last night a
run began on the Denver Savings bank
this morning. The management
promptly announced the enforcement
of the rule of 80 days notice and 10
per cent payments, whereupon many
left the line, but noon found many
waiting to get a portion of their money
Vice President Jones declares that
there is no valid reason for the run.
The institution is a sound bank, Or
ganized in 1890 and reorganized four
years ago. 1t claims deposits of ST.
100000. The management declined to
give details.

and hearing will be held within five
days.
The o. r. & N. and W. & C. r. both
paid taxes last year on a valuation of
$500 per mile. The state board of
equalization last September reduced
the w. & c. r. to a third class road
with valuation of 1886. General
Manager McCabe and Treasurer Cutler
appeared before the board this after
noon and agreed to an assessment of
$3.50. In view of the fact that the O.
r. & N. was only assessed $500 the
difference in the valuations of the two
roads was not considered sufficient,
both Chairman McCaw and Commits
sioner Struthers contending that the
o. r. & N. assessment should be raised
to at least $4,000. 1t was shown that
the Umatilla county valuation on the
o. r. & N. was $4,000 a mile, and on
the w. & c. r. $500 a mile.

One Hundred Boys and Girls
Under Collapsed Building
DEPARTMENT STORE IS IN RUINS
Excavations for improvements Caused
the Building = Fall Down
Work Of Rescue.

ALBANY, N. Y, Aug. S.-Part Of the
building occupied by the department
store of John G. Myers & Co., COL
lapsed at S:45 this morning, burying
beneath the ruins from so to 100 per-
sons. But portion Of the wreck has
been explored, consequently the def
mite number Of victims is unknown.
Girls and young boys compose the ma
jority. The cause is believed to have
been due partly to excavations being
made preparatory to improvements.
Robert Chalmers, one of the firm, is
missing and is believed to be under
the debris. the store had just OPEN
ed for business when the catastrophe
occurred. The side walls and the roof
in the immediate center of tine building
fell three floors constituting a mass
of mangled humanity. broken timbers.
brick and iron piled in the cellar.
The structure is in the center of the
shopping district on North Pearl street.
All nearby stores are closed and turn
ed into emergency hospitals. Fifty
physicians were hurried to the scene.
At noon Is persons had been dug out
of the ruins by firemen and police.
Only one dead body was recovered but
it is feared many others are under the
debris in the cellar. OF the injured
many will die. Every attention is be-
ing paid to them.
At 2 o'clock three bodies were taken
out so badly mangled that they could
not be identified. Sixty persons are
in three hospitals. Between 80 and 40
are still in the ruins some of whom
are undoubtedly dead. That the death
list is no larger is due to the noise
preliminary to the crash, which caused
many to jump through the windows
and fire escapes and make their way
manned intact. The panic following
the crash was terrific, men and women
rushing for entrances knocking down
and trampling the weaker. Fortunate
ly fire did not add to the horror, the
boilers being in front of the building.
At 2:3O the only identified dead was
Miss Bertha Jones. At least Is per-
sons are not yet accounted for and
some are known to be under the ruins.
1t now seems certain the list Of dead
will reach 30.
Robert Chalmers, a member of tho
firm was caught in the ruins and was
buried for two hours. He was caught
under the upright, which supported
the debris above his head. He was
conscious all the time and directed the
workmen how to proceed the work OF
rescue. He was taken out with his
right leg fractured. Thirty girls es-
capped across fire escape into an ad-
Joining store Great care is being ex-
ercised in removing beams for fear OF
bringing down debris on those in the
CELLAR.
Up to 4 o'clock four dead bodies had
been discovered. 1t is believed four
more are in the ruins. The cellar was
cleared this afternoon. It is filling
with water and the bodies of men and
women can be seen floating. The
body of Miss Fitzgerald and beside It
the bodies of three women yet uniden-
tilted are in the morgue. Fffty-one
nersons are unaccounted for. Twenty
five of them are supposed to be dead
in the debris. Forty-three injured per-
sons are listed, two Of whom 1t Is
thought will die.

Penitentiary Officials Have Not
Been Discharged
CHAIRMAN kIMCAID DID NOT ARRIVE
Warden KEGS Says He Will Not Act
Until Member Of the Board
Arrives.

There were no new developments in
the cases of the penitentiary guards
ordered dismissed by Governor Mead.
Chairman Kincaid of the state board OF
audit and control failed to arrive in
Walla Walla today although Warden
KEGS expected him on this mornings
train from Portland. He was not a
passenger on the Northern Pacific
train reaching here at o'clock this af-
ternoon and he is not expected now
until tomorrow morning. Warden
KEGS said this afternoon that until the
arrival of Chairman Kincaid he would
take no action toward carrying out in
structions of governor to discharge
the men.
1t was reported in Walla Walla to-
day that Attorney General Stratton
had rendered an opinion to the gov
ernor that was extremely favorable to
the guards and that in consequence the
governor might reconsider his action
in ordering the discharge of the men,
Warden KEGS announced that he had
received no word to that effect
Politicians Have Been Busy.
Since the announcement that the
governor had stated that it was the
duty of Warden KEGS to discharge all
the employees that took part in the at
tempted registration the friends of
these men and a number of the repub-
lican politicians have been leaving
nothing undone in an effort to have the
governor back down and reconsider
his instructions to the warden. Letters
have been sent to prominent politicians
throughout the state urging them to
use their influence with the chief exc
cutive and communications have been
forwarded personally to Governor
Mead.
Judge Brents Writes Letter.
Saturday Judge Brents wrote let
ter to Governor Mead in which he ex-
pressed the hope that the governor
would reconsider his former instruc-
tions to Warden KEGS. The letter is
as follows:
"Walla Walla, Wash, Aug. 5.
my Dear Governor:
that you have about concluded to re-
move the guards at the penitentiary
who were recently before me on pre-
liminary examination for violation OF
the election laws. I trust you may see
your way clear to reconsider the mat
ter, as 1 fear that, through my action
in the matter you have been induced to
take this course, and I am now satis-
fed it will work an injustice to the
men. AS 1 intimated before, the men
were acting simply according to pre-
yious custom, and under legal advice;
and, while think the advice was un-
sound, believe the men were m1sled
and acting in good faith; although the
matter looked very ugly to me at the
time.
Il am assured that all Of these
guards are discharging their duties ef-
ficiently and faithfully, and that tney
had no intention of violating the law.
Il trust, therefore, that you will re-
consider the matter, and, if consistent
with your views of public policy, over
look this delinquency.
Yours very truly,
"THOS. H. BRENTS."
