magazine would publish an extended
interview with the kaiser in its De-
cember issue has sent a thrill of
alarm throughout the nation. 1t is
feared that the interview will prove
another London Telegraph affair and
again involve Germany in political
complications.
aft is reported that the German en-
bassY, at Washington has been re-
.quested to approach the Century and
ascertain the exact text of the inter-
view, and if any of it is found objec-
.tionable to attempt to have the mag
azine suppress it.
So excited, are the people over the
news that several newspapers have
suggested that a public subscription
be raised with which to buy the en-
tire issue of the December number.
Follows the Interview.
The editors denunciation of the
Fatherland's ruler comes as a result
of the recent interview between the
kaiser and an English retired states
man, in which there was attributed
to the kaiser many statements, the
sentiment of which was resented both
in Germany and the other European
powers. Added to this was the Casa
Blanca incident, which the opposi-
ton alleges the kaiser stirred up to
cover troubles at home from the peo-
pie.
Harden's statements were the bold
est words ever spoken in Germany
against the kaiser. 1t rs the culmina-
ton of the growing agitation against
the absolutism of the emperor.

$4,000 DAMAGE IS DONE
Old Mail Room Adjoining Big Shed
Virtually Destroyed Early Wed.
nesday--Other Structures
In Danger.

st. Louis.-Flames that damaged
the old mail room at Union Station
10000 early Wednesday, spread to
the train sheds and threatened to de-
stroy the entire structure. Terminal
hotel guests were frightened from
their beds by the glare of the flames
In their windows and rushed to the
lobby in scanty garments.
Fire apparatus was driven into the
Midway and trainshed to make an eff
fective fight. There was excitement
among passengers in the waiting
rooms and employees, but no n was
injured.
Night Station Master Fred Parker
discovered the fire at $40 a. m, and
turned in an alarm. Second and third
alarms were sent in by firemen when
he first companies arrived on the
scene.
Other Structures in Danger.
The old mail room is situated at the
south end of the train shed on the
Twentieth street side of the station.
The baggage room and the express Of
hces, on each side of the burning
structure, We're in jeopardy, but were
saved.
The cause of the fire was not ascer-
tanned, but it is believed to have been
due to spontaneous combustion. The
first floor of the building, a two-story
structure, was used as a store room by
trainmen and station employees. The
second was used by station carpenters
as a repair shop.
When discovered the flames had
gained much Roadway and were
spreading through the roof of the
train shed. A hose reel was driven in
to the midway and through the gates
direct into the train shed. Frisco and
Wabash passenger trains were pulled
out of the danger zone by a switch
engine.
Hoted Guests in Panic.
Awakened by the roar and glare and
the changing gongs of fire engines,
Terminal hotel guests fed en- disha-
billie from their rooms. Others kept the
night clerk busy answering calls on
the telephone. Men, women and chill
dren gathered in the lsbby, where
they remained until assured there was
no further danger.
Most Of the engines operated on the
Twentieth street side and through a
network of hose pumped tons of water
that flooded the midway and formed
miniature lakes between the trainshed
platforms.
An acre of the roof of the big shed
was badly scorched, but the amount of
the damage could not be estimated
until an examination of the iron
framework is made.

De made to secure special motor, and
take a larger crowd OF 'rooters' to
Corvallis than has accompanied the
Dallas boys to any of their previous
games. This contest promises to be
doubly hard because of the ancient
and active rivalry between the two
institutions in their athletic inter-
course, and because Of the fact that if
Dallas wins this game, it will hold
the undisputed championship of the
South Division of the Oregon League,
and If Corvallis wins, the two teams
will be tied and third game will be
necessary. Dallas will go into the
struggle with the determination to
maintain her lead ii possible, while
Corvallis will be equally eager to
make the tie, and thus gain a fighting
chance for the championship in the
tryout

The hitherto undefeated skating
basketball team from Corvallis will
meet the local aggregation on the
floor Of the Colosseum rink Saturday
night, and the contest will probably be
the hardest one of its kind ever wit
messed in Dallas. Dallas defeated
Eugene last week by a score of ~ to A
and Corvallis defeated the same team
by a score Of 80 to 5. One may
naturally expect then, to see the two
victorious teams almost equally
