III II shall certainly make the effort
to succeed Senator Allison" said Gov
ernor Cumnins, when he was asked
concerning his political intentions. He
refused, however, to say whether he
will make an effort to obtain the SEN
atorship during the unexpired portion
of Senator Allison,s term, which ends
March 4, 1909. He declared that there
is plenty Of senatorial timber in Iowa,
but declined to discuss probable can
didates for the appointment.
Governor Cummins will cut short
his vacation and return to Des Moines
tomorrow. 1t Is expected that con-
ference of his political friends will be
called, and that within a few days
definite news regarding the short
term of the senatorship will be an
nounced. Govern0r Cunnmins stated
that the decision to fill the vacancy
at once was due to the fact that the
legislature of the state would be un.
able to elect man for the place in
time for the reassembling of congress
in December, and unless the appoint.
ment is made the state would not
have its full representation at Wash.

FOREST FIRES Still RAGING IN BRITISH COLUMBIA
Accounts Vary Death PehylW Michel H@me

# and Supplies Pouring hN SucM the Stricken People

Fernie, B., c., Aug. 4.-The Cana
dian Pacific railroad estimates its
losses at fully 100000, the Great
Northern loss is close to 100000.
The coal company suffered to a great
extent but 1t is almost impossible
to give any idea Of loss to property
from burning. During the day every
effort was directed simply in the work
of relief and rescue. The Crows Nest
Coal company estimates its loss at
nearly $4,000. :
There are no lights tonight except
the forest fires on the mountains and
candles in the stricken town. The
coal company is controlled by J. J.
Hill. No liquor is in the place, and no
disorder has arisen. Many OF the for
eign element spend the time in the
bush looking for whiskey, but fortu-
natsly there is none. -
b Tents, blankets and clothing are
now most needed. Several safes and
vaults have been opened and the con-
tents found intact. ,,<@
The bank vaults are still too hot
to open. Work was resumed today

men volunteered to search for the
dead. The motto OF all the men, as
given up by an old pitman, IS: Any
man who has a. place to sleep is to
give it up to the women and chill
dren.' y
It is certain that some persons
were drowned In trying to swim the
Elk river to the islands for safety, as
they were seen swept away, but
search has not yet been made for. the
bodies. n
a vast quantity Of supplies has been
received, and more are moving into

Considerable petty thieving has

As the trouble has been anticipated
for some weeks past, wholesalers and
commission houses have been routing
their goods over United States lines
to prevent delays in transmission.
All these organizations are part Of
the international trades unions, and
will be backed by the international
organizations in the fight. OF the
whole number of men employed 97.3
per cent have voted for the strike.
which means that all shops and round
houses will be closed down for a time
at least. John McVety, the repre-
sentative of the unions. made the fol-
lowing speech tonight:
There are several principals in
volved in the fight First, there is the
reduction Of wages for large per-
centage Of the boilermakers. This
effects all boilermakers, except in
large shops such as at Montreal and
Winnipeg. Then there is the ques-
ton of overlapping hours, which will
work hardship on a number of the
men; an increase in the percentage
of apprentices and number of other
issues which are definitely decided
years ago, and which the company
now wants to reopen for ends of their
own. 1t. is evident that this end is
the breaking OF the unions, so the
company can have the men at their
mercy Many of those who are going
to strike are not necessarily effected
by the new schedule, but they are
fighting for the principal Of trades
unionism. L III

Two weeks ago Senator Allison left
his home in this city to escape the
heat. He went to the home of Mrs.

formed to relieve a prostratic enlarge
ment, which was bringing his condi-
ton to crisis. 1,. e..

withdrew his plea of not guilty, sub

guilty were heard from Aaron

and Jessie Mccoy. G. H. Albertson
was identified with the crowd, but
he had already been convicted of the
crime of failing to register his liq-
uor license at the February term Of
court. These defendants were all be-
ing held on the same charge, that
of failure to register.
4s R. N. Stevens, assistant attorney
general, and B. Anger, assistant
states attorney, recommended to the
court that fine of $25 and costs be
imposed upon each one of these de-
PENDANTS, but Judge Winchester
went them one better and fined the
culprits $50 and costs apiece.
Anger then asked that the follow

Devils Lake, N. D., Mar. 1S-Col. J.
M. Kelly returned Saturday from a
trip to Bismarck where he was in
consultation with Gov. Burke with
reference to the coming democratic
state convention. Many of Col. Kelly's
friends are urging him to stand as a
candidate for national committeeman,
and it is possible he may consent. The
colonel has reputation for doing
things, and it is generally conceded
that man who can successfully build
the only farmers railroad in America
and operate it is good man to draft
into service for his party. No one has
ever known Col. Kelly to ask for any
thing for himself, yet he is one of the
most deserving men in the state, If
he should be chosen as national com
miteeman the democratic party will
be represented by a man who is true
blue, through and through.
