The Irrigation Congress
AT Boise, Idaho, Will be an Elaborate Affair
With Speakers From All Parts.

President Bumstead, OF the Color.
ado State Beet Growers association,
has notified the board Of control that
his organization will endeavor TO make
winning contest for the $500 solid
silver loving cup that has been donat-
ed by Presinent Havemeyer for the
best exhibit Of sugar beets at the Ma.
tional Irrigation congress, to be held
at Boise September to s. Similar
organizations in California, Utah,
Washington and Idaho have given
the same notice, and the prospects are
that the greatest exhibit of sugar
beets ever made will be shown on this
occasion. The raising Of sugar beets
has advanced more rapidly than any
other industry during the past few
years and promises to become more
important crop than fruit culture IN
the near future. Idaho has built five
beet sugar factories during the past
five years, costing 81 ,0O0, 900 each, and
two more are now under construction.
The slogan, lone hundred million
dollars for national reclamation, :"
which is to be the battle cry at the
Fourteenth National Irrigation con-
gress has been taken up by delegates
coming from every section OF the
country Advocates of the movement
viii be able to convince every delegate
to the congress that there is an abso-
lutte necessity for the Immediate use
OF this sum to complete work now I'M
der way, and that every dollar will be
returned with interest within 10 years
by the farmers TO be benefited. 1t is
a business proposition, and the securi-
ty offered is land that is worth more
than three times the amount which
will be asked TO reclaim it. The Boise
session will be known as the hundred
million dollar congress.

WORK Of DYNAMITE
SQUAD SAVED
THE CITY
Three Heroes Responsible for
Escape of Frisco From
Total Destruction.

Associated Press to The Evening Times.
San Francisco. April 26.-Three
heroes saved San Francisco-what is
left of it. They were the dynamite
squad, that threw back the fire demon
at Van Ness avenue
When the burning city seemed DOOM
ed and the flames lit the sky further
and further to the west Admiral Nc
Calls sent trio of his most trusted
men from Mare Island with orders to
check the conflagration at any cost.
With them they brought ton and
half of gun cotton.
Capt. Mcbride was in charge of the
squad. Chief Gunner Adamson placed
the charges and the third gunner set
them off. The thunderous detonations
to which the terrified city listened all
that dreadful Friday night meant the
salvation OF 100000 lives. A million
dollars worth of property, fine resi-
dences and worthless shacks were
blown to dust, but that destruction
broke the fire and sent the flames
over their own charred path.
The whole east side of Van Ness
avenue, from Golden Gate to Green
witch were dynamited a block deep,
though most Of the structures stood
untouched by spar or cinder. Not one
charge failed. Not one building stood
upon its foundation.
Every pound of gun cotton did its
work and though the ruins burned it
was but feebly. From Golden Gate
avenue north the fire crossed the wide
street in but one place That was the
Claus Spreckels structure on the cor
ner of California street. There the
flames were writhing up the walls be-
fore the dynamiters could reach it.
Yet they made their way to the foun-

wasted. The ruined block that met
the wide thoroughfare formed trench
through which the conflagration could
not leap. Engines pumping water
through Fort Madison from the bay
completed the little work that the gun
cotton had left. but for three days the
haggered eyed firemen guarded the
fickering ruins. When the squad COM
pleted their work they departed as
modestly as they had come They were
ordered to save San Francisco and
they obeyed orders.

SENSATION IN ST. PETERSBURG.
Caused by Refusal to Allow Return OF
Banished Member of Parliament.

A::oeiated Press Cable to The Evening

ton has been caused by the action of
General Neplueff, commander sof the
fortress of Sebastopol, in fatty refus-
ing to accede to Premier Whites re-
quest to allow NJ. Sipiaguine, neph-
ew of the murdered minister of the
interior of that name and one of the
members elected to the lower house
of parliament from the Crimean prov
1nce to return to Sebastopol. NJ.
SipiaSuine, who is under a decree of
perpetual Punishment from Sebasto-
pol on account of his participation in
the disorders there, telegraphed to the
premier for permission to return, and
Count Witte in turn wired General
Neplueff to the effect that in his opin-
ion member-elect of parliament
should not be excluded from the city
in which he claims to reside. The
general replied, however, that he was
responsible for preserving order in the
fortress and that he did not regard
N. Sipiaguine's presence as desirable.

500 CUTS THE RATE.
Alleged Secret Tariff Spurs Mime.
apOlis Line to Action.

The 500 line has stirred up trans
portation circles by the announcement
today of an SIS second-class rate to
New York. General Passenger Agent
w. R. Galloway made this move, he
says, to get into competition with
secret cutting. He has put in the rate
until June 80. Albany, New York, Bos-
ton, Montreal. and other eastern points
are covered by the rate. 1t will ap-
ply, also, to all intermediate points
where the regular second-class rates
are higher.
The annual exodus of Scandinavians
to the home land cuts considerable
figure in east-bound rail and steam
ship rates. This year the browning
of King Haakon, set for June %, will
result in an unusual rush of Norwe-
gians to the old country. Competition
for this business was naturally strong
between the railroads, and the secret
competition which has aroused the
