Surround Four Villages in
Michigan Peninsula and
People Ely for Their Lives
IF Wind Increases the
Country Will Be Swept
Clean

Escanaba, Mich, Sept. 21.-- Forest
fires, though checked by light rains
Friday, broke out anew last night, and
four villages north of Escanaba are
now surrounded by flames.
The villages Threatened are Niagra,
Quinnesec, Foster City and Hermans-
vile. From all of these places tele-
phone and telegraph communication is
cut off and relief trains are carrying
people out of the territory.
At Foster City, where the Morgan
Cedar and Lumber company's big mill
is located, the flames encircle the
town, and a freshet of wind will deEa-
tate the entire town. The mill is
closed and every place of busiess is
suspended, while over 400 men are
on the outskirts of the village fighting
the advance of the fire.
At Iron Mountain today the fam
lilies of twelve farmers were driven
from their homes. AT Quinnesec,
many people, were taken into this
city on relief trains and efforts are
being made to reach others in the
more remote districts and the towns
upon which the flames are adVanc-
| ing. u ~ r.
HermansvilIe, where the big wood
ware plant is located, has been sur
rounded by fire for the last twelve
hours and unless the wind develops
tonight it is believed possible to save
the town. g..
At Niagara, where one of the larg-
est paper mills in the northwest is
, located, the fire reached the limits
| of the village last night. Relief trains
| have been sent through the fire line
! and a number of families taken out.
The fire stopped after several hund
red cords of pulp wood had been de-
stroyed, but the danger point is not
passed and the people remaining in
the town are constantly on guard
The woods are as dry as tinder.
