GREAT FIRE HITS
MANY FAR AWAY
FLOUR CITY MAN LATELY RE
TURNED FROM BUSINESS
TRIP TO FERNIE.
WAS IMPRESSED BY DANGER
THAT WOULD FOLLOW FIRE
IN CROWS NEST.

! Minneapolis, Aug. S.-The great
British Columbia forest fire is brought
lclose to Minneapolis because of the
fact that a local company is largely
interested in the vicinity, where the
heavy timber is being burned, and
where much money has been invested
in the lumber industry. S. H. Bow
man, president of the Union Lumber
company, which owns a mill at Fer
Inie, is a Minneapolis lumberman, To-
Gated in the Lumber Exchange, with
the S. H. Baldwin Lumber company
The Union Lumber company is a
holding company. which operates mills
in various parts of the country and
among them the Elk mill at Fernie
]. E. Rhodes, secretary of the North
ern Pine Manufacturers association,
with Offices in the Lumber Exchange.
has only lately returned from a trip
into the Crows Nest valley, where the
| fire has been raging, and gives some
facts which alter several opinions
formed after reading the early dis
patches. Talk on the street was that
the reports were greatly exaggerated,
this idea gaining ground after looking
up the railroad illustrations exploit
ing the towns along the line of the
Canadian Pacific Mr. Rhodes, how
ever, shows that the country in ques-
ton has developed far beyond the
power of the advertising department
of the railroads to keep pace with.
Fernie, Mr.. Rhodes, states, was
town of about 5000 people. It's claim
to business and population arose
from the fine timber about its site,
and the fact that some of the finest
bituminous coke coal known is taken
coke ovens, and the coke is used by
the Montana smelters, which was the
occasion for the Great Northern build
ing its line up into that territory.
The town had three sawmills, one of
them the Elk mill, being a most mod
ern steel and concrete structure, as
fine a mill as could be found any
where.
Il was struck, when at Fernie, with
the great fire risk said Mr. Rhodes
yesterday, speaking of the burning of
the timber THE Crows Nest valley
is long and deep, and well choked
with growth 1t was easy to be seen
that in the event of brisk wind blow
ing in that direction. 1t is a splen
did timer country, some fine large
cedar and larch, and plenty of spruce, !
running all down the valley and on
the western slopes To the east there
is prairie and farther west plenty OF
prairie so that there could not be
much spreading in those directions.
There is plenty of timber along the
mountains down into Montana, but l
don't think there is much danger of a
distant spread there"
Mr.. Rhodes attributes the great
damage to the fact that the same
conditions obtained that were present
at the time of the Hinckley fire which
caused so much loss. Many small
fires in Grows Nest valley have
caused a large amount of dead and
down, and when a new fire famed by
a wind comes, it burns so hard that it
actually burns the ground itself.
From the nature of the material to
burn, and the reports, Mr.. Rhodes
does not think there is much left in
the path of the fire.
