FAIRBANKS TURNS OUT
 FAREWELL KENNEDY

About all the people of Fairbanks turned out last evening (June 18) to do honor to Dan Kennedy and give him their best wishes as he paradcd through the streets of the city just be fore his departure to the Susitna country, where ho is going with a store of provisions for the miners of that section.
 Kenp ,y's undertaking is by no mear small one, as he will under taR the blazing of trail from some where in the vicinity of Wood river to Valdez creek and it was q splendid spirit that the people of Fairbanks showed in turning out to pay their respects to one who may eventually prove the pioneer to great conner cial movement.
 Kennedy and his outfit was met on the other side of the bridge by a ten piece band. The music was struck up and the procession moved across to where hundreds of people who lined the sidewalk and extended well out into the street were awaiting him.
 The caravan moved up Front street, crossed Lacy and went down Second and across Cushman street, from which point he went to the Florence $.
 It was quite while after he got to the boat before his provisions and twenty-four head of stock were of for their memorable trip.
 Kennedy made the statement that he expected to make the overland trip in about twelve days, and that he expected to be back in Fairbanks sometime during the middle of July. Fairbanks News.

SENATOR ALLISON
 CALLED BY DEATH
Prominent Member of Rep ubIican Party Succumbs
 to Heart Failure

Dubuque, Aug. 5-Senator William Boyd Allison of Iowa died at his home here last night, heart failure being the cause. Death came as q surprise for to all appearances Senator Allison had been enjoying his customary good health. Senator Allison passed his seventy-ninth birth anniversary last March.
 Senator Allison was known as the father of the senate having served continuously for thirty five years. He was one of the most powerful re- publican influences in the upper house. Born in Perry, Ohio, William B. Allison was educated at the Vest ern Reserve college of that state. He studied law and practioed that pro- fessson in Ohio until he removed to Iowa in 1857. He served on the staff of the governor of Iowa and aided in organizing volunteers in the begin ming of the civil war.
 Mir. Allison was elected represen- tative in the thirty eighth, thirty-nin- tn, fortioth and forty y-first congresses and was elected to the senate to sue ceed James Harlan, republican, for the term beginning March 1, 1873 The term he was serving at the time of his death expires March 3, 1909 but he had been nominated at the pri marles to succeed himself.

RAY GETS ORDER
 ID PROBE RUMOR

Assistant United States Distaic Attorney l.. V. Ray this afternoon received from Washington orders to thoroughly investigate the rumor that election frauds are purposed on Aug ust II. The order comes directly from the president.
 Mir. Ray is not aware that any one has sent to Washington word that frauds are to be attempted in Valdez and he believes that the order is is- sued because of the appeal made to the president by the Wickersham for ces in Fairbanks. In MT. Rays opin- ion the Wickersham forces have to the president expressed fear that frauds may be contemplated in Cor dova.

MURDERS AND SUICIDE
 END FAMILY QUARREL
Jesse Ffer Kills His Daughter and Mrs. L. Niechul dangerously Wounds His Wife and Mrs. Ethel
 Warren and Ends His Own Life.

Seattle, July 31-Crazed becaused his wife and 12 year old daughter, unable longer to stand his Ill treatment had deserted him, Jesse Fifer, gripman employed by the Seattle Electric Company, this morning killed the daughter and Mrs. l.. Niehul, dangerously wounded his wife and Mrs. Ethel Warren and then committed suicide. The triple tragedy took place in private hospital whither the wife and child had gone when the conduct of the husband and father made it impossible for them to remain in their own home.
 t1fer's act came at the conclusion of conference between himself and wife and as the result of her fiat re- fusal to return to him. Mrs. Niehul and Mrs Warren were shot because at the request of Mrs. Fifer they re- mained in the room during the con ference. Both of the wounded women are in such a dangerous condition that the physicians will permit no one to question them and the details of the affair can only be surmised by the mute evidence of the rooms where it took place and by testimony of ac- quaintances of Fifer.
 For some time Fifer had been tell ing his fellow workmen of his family troubles and he had more than once
The Alaska prospector., 1908-08-06

threatened vengeance to those he accused of coming between himself and family and by their interference making it impossible for him to in- duce his wife to return to him. From what can be learned from the scene in the hospital it is evident that all the women were in the room when Flfer failing in his attempt to induce his wife to withdraw the action for divorce she had filed the day before, drew his revolver and began to shoot.
 The body of Mrs. Niehul lay in the doorway leading to another room in dicating that she had been shot while running. Mrs. Warren had been shot as she was trying to open the door leading into the hall and the daugh- ter died as she was crouching behind chair in corner of the room. The wife was the first victim.
 It is evident that Fifer believed he had killed all those who fell before his wrath for he reloaded his revolver before sending bullet through his own brain, the shot heinz fired just as neighbors, alarmed at the first fusill- ade, entered the place. It is believed that If they do recover, the wounded women will owe their lives to the fact that they were so badly hurt as to be unable to move for otherwise Fifer would have fulfilled his inten- tions to slay them all.

BULLDOG INJURIES
 NOTED SONCSTRESS

New York, Aug. Miss Emily Gardner the noted prima-donna is lying at the point of death as the re- suit of injuries inflicted last night by bull-dog owned by the singer's housekeeper. The animal attacked Mise Gardner at the threshold of her apartments and before assistance ar rived she was badly mangled despite her heroic efforts to defend herself.
 The dog has always been con sidered gentle and knew Miss Gard ner well. It is supposed that, sud- denly awakened, he mistook Miss Gardner for an intruder.
 Miss Gardner is one of the most famous of grand opera singers. She was born in Scotland but spent most of her girlhood in this country, later going to Paris where her musical education was completed. She has taken the leading part in the most famous of French operas and it was only year or so ago that she came to New York. Her engagements ohre have duplicated the wonderful successes accorded her efforts abroad

The whole Klondiko is pro- testing at this reduction of the camp to n cheap basis, but without effect.

Dead etarvhg Seventy Square Miles
 $OOOOO 900 is Disasters Recor to Date

Cranbrook, Northwest Tcrsitory Aug. 3--One hundred or more per- pons are dead 5000 are homeless and without food or shelter, Fernie, Hos mer, Crowsnest and several other towns are totally destroyed and q property loss of between S8, ,OOO, 900 and $10.000,O0Q as the result to date of fire which started in the Koote- nay valley Saturday night. The fire is still sweeping across the country and the railroads are finding it almost impossible to afford relief. Commit nication has been practically suspen- ded and only scant details are obtain able.
 The reports so far received show that the fire will be the worst in num- Der of lives sacrificed and in property destroyed, since the San Francisco disaster. More than seventy square miles have been burned over, and the latest report says that Elk valley, a populous farming section is a seething mass of flames. dry brush furnishing an abundance of fuel
 The railroads are doing all in their power to remove to places of safety those made destitute but there are thousands who will perish of starva- tion unless relief is soon forthcoming. The premier of Canada has been ap- pealed to for assistance.
