bound train from Cheboygan. which was
hemmed in all night by fire at Laroque,
have just arrived On a relief train.
Fire this afternoon is reported to be
dangerously near Rogers City. Laroque
also seems to be doomed unless rain comes
within a few hours. Women and children
have been sent away from this village.
This afternoon arrivals from Laroque
came on train No. 10. which was reported
last night to have returned to C~heboygan.
Instead, the train was held up at Laroque
by the fire, which ragged on all four sides.
1t was saved, however, and the passengers
boarded the relief train which went early
today from here and returned this after
noon. Farms between Metz and Rogers
City have been ravaged by the fire. 1t is
learned this afternoon that II the inhabi-
tants at Metz had taken the relief train as
soon as 1t arrived yesterday all could ave
been taken out in safety, but they were
insistent upon saving their household furni-
ture, which delayed the train until the fire
was sweeping the tracks.

Democratic Chairman Says the Fight

Democratic Chairman says the HlBht
Is Won.
CHICAGO, Oct. l6.-National Chair
man Mack, who has been In Chicago
for nearly two weeks directing the
fight in the west for the election of the
democratic ticket, left tonight for the
east. After registering at his home in
Buffalo Mr.. Mack will leave for New
York 10 look over the situation in New
York and the east. Mr.. Mack said before
his departure:
when I came west some two weeks
ago 1 realized that the tide had turns
toward democracy and every indication
pointed to victory for the democratic
ticket in November. The situation is
far better now than then, and 1 return
east confident in the election of Mr..
Bryan. 1 have not received one discourage
ing report. Mr. Bryan will not only re-
ceive the majority of the electoral vote,
but one of the greatest popular votes
ever given a candidate.
THE fight is won, but we must keep
eVerlastingly at II for the remaining two
weeks Of the campaign, 1t is too early
to give out figures and l will not at
tempt to do, so, but 1 will say now that
New York, Indiana and Ohio are demo-
cratic this year n my prediction does
not take into consideration a number of
other states that will swing from the
republican to the democratic column two
weeks from Tuesday"
