The fire is a fresh one and not a con-
tinuatiOn of the fires which did so
much damage last week.
When the blaze started the wind was
from the west and it was feared Rhine
lander with it's homes for 1000 persons
was doomed also, but change in the
direction of the wind probably has saw
ed the city.
The towns Of Gagen and Woodboro
are OH the 500 Railway. Reports from
the refugees who come to the city say
nothing is left of Gagen. Citizens have
decided to ask the governor to order
out the State Militia to assist in fight
ing the flames, which because of the
dry condition of the woods threaten
to destroy the forest 1t is feared the
wind may again shift and the mayor
and chief of police believe the danger
to Rhinelander is not yet over.
Hundreds of men have gone out from
this city to fight the flames. A report
received from those returning say they
have made little progress against the
fire.

Mr.. Taft Reads Presidents Letter Sew.
eraI Times.

Cincinnati. Sept. 2l.-William H. Taft
read and re-read the production of
President Roosevelt inspired by the
Foraker and Hearst CONTROVERSY He
recalled WILDLY writing the letter
which the President quoted from him;
but after considering the question care
fully. concluded to make no addition
to the subject at this time. Mr. Taft
did not indicate that he would hereaf-
ter make a statement
Senator Foraker said that owing to
the lateness of the hour he would nou
make any comment on the statement
issued tonight by, President Roosevelt
relative to the position Mr.. Taft had
taken on the endorsement of Senator
Foraker for reelection.
The senator said that he would prob
ably not read tonight the copy Of the
statement handed him by representa-
tive of The Associated Press.
The suggestion was made that he
might wish a statement by him to ap-
pear in the same editions of the news
papers in which the Presidents state
ment would be published. Senator For
aker in reply said:
II am not so fond Of the Presidents
company as that"
He said he might make a statement
tomorrow, if after consideration, he
deemed any comment was necessary.

cities for help, and Boston, Everett and
Revere responded.
A Boston engine which arrived early
on the scene was soon overwhelmed by
falling walls and nearly destroyed. The
fire then broke it's original bounds and

tracks of the eastern division of the

breeze. extended to the other smaller
factories and the tenements. An hour
after the start, it looked as if it would
keep right on into the other factories
which survived the April conflagration
and also into the residential district
beyond.
Fortunately the width of Everett
avenue on the north side with vacant
space on the opposite side to the fire
proved too great space to leap over
and by massing the firemen on the 9th
er sides, the progress of the flames was
stopped.
The fire district was bounded by the
railroad tracks on the south, Egereet
avenue on the east, Carter street or
the north and West Sd street on the
west.
The tencments were nearly all occu-
pied by Italians whose personal loss
was comparatively small

the hosts of Zion City is to purify Chi
cago," which was branded as "Rctten
as He'll" by the Zion leader yesterday
Wilbur VOliva, successor to John
Alexander Dowie, came to town as one
Of the strangers into Sodom and an
Eounced that the militant host would
march on the city the latter part of
October.
Volivas proposed invasion of Chica-
go will rival Dowie's famous visitation
to New York few years ago. He plans
to bring host of 1000 followers to the
storming of ChicagOs stronghold of
vice. With banners streaming, bands
playing sacred music, and hymns swell
ing from the long ranks, the soldiers
of the Lord will march from Zion City
to Chicago.
By this missionary descent upon the
city Foliva hopes to add several thou
sand members to the church of Zion.
