NEAR SALINAS
FIRES ARE
RAGING
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press
SALINAS, Oct. 7--Forest fires which
started in wild canyon, fourteen miles
south of Monterey City, eight days ago,
that have been raging along the Palo
Colorado, Garrapalos, Mill and Stoney
creeks. are still unchecked. Hundreds
of men are fighting the flames, but
aside from saving ranch horses they
are making no headway
l. N. Swetr am, whose ranch Is on
the Palo Colorado creek and who has
been burned out, said this morning
that the fire has passed Notlesjes land
ing, twenty-four miles down the coast,
reached the lime kilns and was working
toward Sargent's ranch on the Little
Sur.
All work has been suspended In the
district, the men being out trying to
save houses and cattle.
Last night an attempt was made to
stop the fire by clearing a space thirty
feet wide at Murray Ridge, but the
flames leaped the clearing.
The fire has reached the Santa Lucia
government reservation, known as the
Pines, and is sweeping toward Tassa-
jara Springs eastward and Arroyo
Seco southwark.
A strip of land twenty-four miles
long, ten miles wide and covering
nearly $4,000 acres has been burned
over. The losses will be very heavy.

REED MILLION
OREGON STAKE
SUPREME COURT TO SETTLE
CASE THIS WEEK
Whether Pasadena or Portland Was
Testator's Legal DomlclIe ls the
Issue to Be Determined
at Once
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
PORTLAND, Ore, Oct. 1.-The Reed
will case, which has been hanging fire
for long time in the courts here, will
come before the supreme court of Ore
gon on appeal from the circuit court
of Multnomah on October IL. The SUI
preme court decision will be final and
if the decision of the lower court is
affirmed it will mean that the state of
Oregon, probably Portland, will re-
ceive about $1,000,000 for the establish
ment of great educational institute.
AS Mrs. Amanda w. Reeds death
occurred at Pasadena. the heirs con-
tended that the testament should be
probated under the laws of California.
These provide that only one-third of
an estate may be bequeathed to char
liable enterprises. 1t has been main
tanned by the opposing counsel, how
ever that while Mrs. Reed was. at the
time of her death living in California,
she still maintained her legal domicile
in Portland, and that the will should
therefore be probated here.
The estate is that of S. G. Reed, for
many years one of Portland's promi-
nent citizens. He came to, this city
in early days. and his wealth was the
result Of his dealings in the transpor-
tation business. AS his health failed,
he left Portland in 1892 and went to
Pasadena, where he died. He had,
however, continued resident here, be-
ing a member of the city water board,
and his will was admitted to probate
in this county.
In bequeathing $1,OOO,OOO of the es-
tate to what is to be known as the
Reed institute, Mrs. Reed is carrying
out the wishes of her husband. 1t was
indicated who the trustees of the insti-
tuition should be, the only provision of
the will being that 1t be located some
where In Oregon.
AS three courts have already handed
in the decision that Mrs. Reeds domi-
cile was In Oregon, and as one of these
was a California court, the friends OF
the Reed institute are reasonably sure
that this decision of the court of last
resort will be favorable to the will.

CHINA TOO POOR
TO BUY BONDS
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
LONDON, Oct. 7.- Dis
patches from Toxic declare
that the bonds of the Southern
Msnchuria railroad have been
oversubscribed many times
but that there were no Chinese
applications.
Explaining this fact the
Peking correspondent Of the
Times says that although
China was invited to partici-
pate she did not do so because
there were no funds available
for the investment and none
could be had without recourse
to foreign loan, which policy
and the fear of foreign compli-
cations both forbade.
The railroad therefore, the
correspondent says, although
nominally Chino Japanese.
would be exclusively Japanese
and give Japan effective con-
troll of Southern Manchuria.

CHICAGO, Oct John Alexander
Dowie's plan for a Mexican colony was
abandoned in obedience to command
received by Dowie in a vision that
came to him last Friday and that lasted
five hours. according to announcement
made today by Deacon Arlington, one
of Dowie's followers who has remained
loyal to the deposed prophet.
The scheme, Deacon Arlington said,
was relinqushed for another that con-
templates the raising of $1,000,O00 In
Chicago for the purpose of restoring
Dowie's power and prestige.
The announcement was made In a
small church in Chicago.
All preparation for Dowie's departure
for Mexico had been completed when
in a vision, accompanied by binding
white light, the glory of which could
not be described, the first apostle"
declares he saw the Master and heard
his voice. He was commanded, he
said, to give up the Mexican project
and seek the glory of Zion elsewhere.

LITTLE ROCK, Ark, Oct. 7.--As a
result of Ill feeling following the recent
shooting of Robert Colum, negro who
conducted an Undertaking establish-
nent at Argentine, a city across the
Arkansas river from Little Rock, John
Lindsey, a white man. father of man
who was suspected by the negroes of
having been implicated in the killing of
Colum. was shot and killed last night
and his son, Milton Lindsey, was
wounded.
The Shooting, Milton Lindsey alleges
was done by Garrett and Charles
Culum, brothers of Robert Culom.
The shooting took place in the under
taking establishment conducted by the
Column brothers. Following the shoot
ing officers went to the scene but were
fired upon by the negroes, who barri-
caded themselves. They then turned
out the lights in the place and after
ward made their escape through door
in the rear.
Several hundred armed men gatnered,
and before 1t was known that the
negroes had escaped shots were fired
through the building, and as final
attempt the place was dynamited
A posse searched the home Of the
Colums but they were not found there.
and it is supposed that they have gone
to an adjoining county in which they
formerly lived.
The affair was not race riot, but
was caused through i'll feeling of the
Colums toward the Lindseys over the
killing of Robert Colum.
The grocery and undertaking estab-
Ashment belonging to the Colums in
Argenta was burned later. 1t is sup
posed that the fire was of incendlary
origin.
