DEATH LIST GROWS.
1t Has Reached 100 With 200 Missing
in Idaho.

wallace, Idaho. Aug. 24.-The stu
alton shows a death list of 100. with
200 missing, as a result of the forest
fires. While the cities of Warmer
Kellogg. Burke and Murray are
threatened with disasters similar 10 the
one Wallace suffered, the danger mere
is entirely over.
The fire broke out all over the
Occur d'Alene at the same hour and
as reports pour in of the dead pelns
found in various unexpected places IN
the district, the fear grows that many
may have met death or fatal injuries
who have not been missed as yet.
This is the season of the year when
many of the Occur d'Alene resorts
have their best fishing and hunting
and several hundred campers are IN
the hills. Few of these parties have
been heard from and in the confusion
resulting from the disasters In score
of places, no. organized attempt mas
been made to find them.
No rain is to be expected under or
binary conditions before the middle
of next month. and the drought may
result in more fires.
At Wardner and Kellogg, Idaho,
fires are approaching the town from
two directions and they are now only
a mile away
At Burke, Idaho, the fire is three
miles distant but coming down the
canyon toward the mining camp. All
the stores and mines near Burke have
closed and the men are out fighting
the fires.
At Mullan, Idaho. the town was saw
ed by armed citizens who forced every
man in town to work at back-firing
This back firing has cleaned up the
surrounding mountainsides of dry
timber and is expected to prevent dam
age in Mullan.
Near st. Marys, Idaho, it is believed
fifty homesteaders and their families
have been destroyed, though the fires
are so bad that investigation cannot
be made.
On Big Creek, survivors of the fire
who arrived here today say that seven
of the men were crowded into a pros
pect hole five feet long. They were all
killed. Three men were killed near
the hole by falling trees.

MONTANA SITUATION.
Thrilling Experiences Are Related by
Refugees Reaching Missoula.

Missoula, Mont, aug. 4.-Refugees
from the fire swept district Of western
Montana are beginning to arrive at vari-
Gus points, gradually lessening the
humber of persons reported missing.
One of the most thrilling experiences
thus far told was thai of Mr.. and Mrs.
A. Patterson of Wallace. Idaho who
with a party Of FIVE men. arrived at
Iron Mountain, Mont, yesterday. When
the party started out 1t included Robert
Murray, a cripple, but he was unable
to keep up and was left behind. 1t
is feared that he persisted.

fire surrounding them after the first
days travel, weary and discouraged
and confused by the smoke 1t remained
for Mrs Patterson to lead the party
out. With q firm word of command she
led the party for two days.
On the second afternoon the members
of the party were forced to run for
their lives. Murray. the cripple who had
a wooden leg, was unable to keen up
and had to be abandoned.
When they reached Iron Mountain
Mrs. Patterson's condition was better
than that of the men who appeared
completely exhausted.
Among the refugees who have arrived
here are George Cook and wife of Null
Ian, Idaho who were in the mountains
near Mullan, when overlook by the fire.
They started Sunday toward Ml,lIan
but on the way out came face to face
with another fire and had to change
their course. They walked all night
