FIRE ON a TRANSPORT,
Flames Attack q. S. S. Meade at Dock
in San Francisco-Three Men
Killed-Many Injured.

San Francisco, Feb 2-Three men
were killed and So injured, mostly by
suffocation, in a fire that ragged on the
United States transport Meade as she
lay at the Folsom street dock early
Thursday morning. Tons of high ex-
plosives were loaded in the after part
OF the vessel, and the firemen worked
with the possibility ever before them
that the flames would reach this COM
partment. Had this occurred the
whole city would probably have been
shaken by a terrific explosion and no
man aboard the ship would have es-
capped. 1t is impossible to estimate the
loss sustained by the different officers.
Over a thousand pieces of baggage
were ruined. Trunks, boxes, barrels
were water-soaked or consumed in the
flames. Wearing apparel and house
hold furnishings were ruined, and I'M
til an exact inventory is made the
amount of the loss will not be known.
One officer places the damage to per-
sonal effects at from $4,000 to $780,
900. The vessel is not very seriously
injured and will be ready to sail for
Manila next Saturday.

Turns States Evidence.

Helena, Mont, Feb. 5.-One of the
most sensasonai horse stealing cases
tried in Montana in years is on in
Bozeman, where Roland Sloan and
Ross Maxwell are accused of wholesale
theft of horses, changing their brands
and reselling them The case took on
sensational turn when Maxwell turn

lated to the jury his story to the effect
that he and Sloan, aided by A. w. AL
len, ranchman, acting as go-between,
robbed ranchers right and left of hor-
ses and cleverly altered the brands. It
appears that the alleged thieves, like
those in the adage, fell out. and ar
rests followed. All of the accused live
