C TOCKTON, Sept. 1.--Another fierce
fire is burning near the Calaveras

going in the direction of Dorrington or
Gardner's station on the big trees road.
The fire has burned up the San An

and almost circled the grove without
reaching any of the world famous
trees.

News oones by special from MUIR

the Calaveras Big Trees hotel, that the
forest fire has got into the grove of
mammoth trees at the upper end of
the drive near where the Mother of
the Forest" stands, a monster sequoia
327 feet high and Is feet in circumfer-
ence.
The famous trees named after noted
men of history are below the point of
attack and the only hope for the mag
nificent monsters of the forest is
change in the wind. as the fire fightors
are powerless to stop the flames.
To get into the grove of big trees the
fire had to cross the road leading to
Gardners, which 1t did tonight.
Little Underground
There is little underground in the
grove and that may be the means Of
checking the fire, but its sweep
| through the grove is greatly feared.
The valley in which the grove Is
situated contains ninety-three monster
sequoia trees. Ten of the trees are
each thirty feet in dia- .eter and over
seventy are between fifteen and thirty
| feet in diameter.
! Many of the trees are more than 300
feet high. The fire has attacked some

man, and is in charge of his brother,
Job Whitesides, who has recently con-

ADMIRAL GLASS
DIES SUDDENLY
LEAVES BERKELEY TO STAY AT
PAS0 ROBLES
Former Commander of Charleston
Badly Weakened by Operation.
Is Taken from Home
and Expires

PAso ROBLES, Cal, Sept. Rear
Admiral Henry Glass, United States
navy (retired), died late this after
noon at a health resort here of heart
failure, following an operation per-
formed several days ago at his home

been regarded as critical for some
time.

Kentucky in 1874 and was appointed
to the military academy in 1860. AS an
ensign he participated in all the gen.
eral engagements with forts and bat
teries in Charleston harbor in 1868,

OPEN BIDS FOR
BUILDING OF IS
BIG WAR BOATS
DESTR0YERS AND GOLFERS
TO BE CONSTRUCTED
ESTIMATES MADE ARE BELOW
CONGRESSIONAL LIMIT
Awards May Be Made This Week, as
Navy Department ls,Anxlous
That Work Begin at
Once

EJ Associated Press
w ASHINGTON, Sept. 1. - Ship
w builders and their representa-
tives to the number of half a
hundred gathered at the navy depart
ment today to witness the opening of
bids for the construction of ten tor
pedoboat destroyers, authorized by
congress not to exceed in cost $500, 900
each, and for the acquisition of three
colliers not to exceed $525,000 each.
Bids for the torpedoboats were sub
mitted under the government plans for
hull and machinery and also proposed
that the builders install their own de-
signs of machinery.
All the proposals made were at a
figure considerably below the congress
sional limit. If the bids are found to
conform to the specifications. awards
may be made this week, as the navy
department is anxious that work shall
begin on the vessels as soon as pos
sible.
Each May Get Contract
It is likely, in the opinion of the Of
fcials. that each of the five firms max
ing bids will get a contract as the
law contemplates that no firm shall be
given an award for more than three
vessels.
A notable feature was the offer of
various firms to construct high-Speed
destroyers, proposals of the character
being made under the class permitting
bidders to, install their own machin-
cry designs. Proposals to furnish ves-
sells of thirty and up to thirty-three
knots an hour were made.
In the collier class the Maryland
Steel company made the lowest tenders
for the vessels provided for by con-
gress of 1900 tons each.
Firms Making Bids
The five firms which submitted bids
for the construction of the destroyers
under government designs for the hull
and machinery were the Bath iron
works, two vessels at $644. 900 each: the
New York Shipbuilding company of
Camden, N. j., two vessels at 1856, 900
each; William Cramp Sons Philadel-
phia. two vessels at $669.000 each; the
Maryland Steel company, two vessels
40 s70s. 300 each and three vessels at
sf0s.6oo each; the Newport News Ship
building and Drydock company, two
yesseis at $500. 900 each.
All these bids contemplate vessels
having a speed of 295s knots.

WI HITE RIVER JUNCTION, VT,
wv Sept. 1.-The Republicans won
the election in Vermont today
by carrying the state for Lieutenant
Governor George H. Prouty of New
port for governor by about 2S. 900 votes
over James e. Burke of Burlington, his
Democratic opponent. The plurality
was the smallest in presidential year
since 1892, when it was only 1885, and
was followed by Democratic national
victory, but 1t was larger than In 1883,
though less than in 1900.
There was falling off in four years
of about per cent in the Republican
vote, while the Democratic vote fell of
about 2 per cent.
The Doodle Dees
The independence league appeared
for the first time and polled about 1000
votes, while the Prohibition and Social
ist vote remained about the same. An
unusually large number Of local candi-
dates for membership of the legisla-
ture. although bringing out a heavy
vote and resulting in Democratic gains

apparently had no bearing on the
gubernatorial fight.
AS Vermont is the first state to vote
during the presidential campaign there
was much interest throughout the
country in the size Of the Republican
plurality.
The Republicans retained complete
control of the legislative and executive
branches of the government of Ver-
mont. They elected to congress from
the First district David j. Foster of
Burlington for another term, and from
the Second district Frank Plumley of
Northfield for the first time. and elect
ed majority of the state legislature.
which will select a successor to the
late Senator Redfield Proctor.

VERMONT GOES REPUBLICAN
BY DIMINISHED PLURALITY

The state ticket elected was as fol-
| lows:
Governor-George M. Prouty of
Newport
Lieutenant Governor-George A.
Mead of Rutland.
Secretary of State-George w. Bal
ley of Essex.
Treasurer-Edwin H. Deavitt of
Montpelier.
Auditor-Eorace f. Graham OF
Graftsburg.
Attorney. General-John S. Sargent
of Ludlow
At 10:45 returns had been received
from 157 towns and three cities, in
cluding Burlington, out of the 24O
towns and six cities of the state. These
returns gave for Governor Prouty,
1854; Backus. Independence league,
764; Campbell. Prohibition, $40; Dun
bar, Socialist, 305.
1904 Comparisons
Same cities and towns in 1904 gave:
Bell, Republican, 32,726; Porter, DEM
ocrat, 1921. These figures indicate
a Republican loss of per cent. On
this basis Prouty's plurality Is esti-
mated at $4,000, compared with Bells
plurality of 31,557 in 1904.
The voters were urged to support the
Republican ticket by speakers of ma
tional Importance, who stumped the
state during the past two weeks. On
the other hand, the Democrats fought
the battle alone, James e. Burke of
Burlington, formerly known as the
Blacksmith mayor OF that city, who
headed the ticket, having only local
talent In his support.
Although Burlington went Republi-
can on the state ticket it was strongly
Democratic when 1t came to the repre-
sentative fight, M. G. Leary, the DEM
ocratic candidate for representative,
defeating Lawrence 3artley, Republic
can, by majority of S65.
