FIRE CONSUMES LOGS
READY FOR DELIVERY
Half Million Feet Allowed to Burn
by Lumbermen

SEATTLE, July 18---Five hundred
thousand feet of logs that had been
cut and were ready for delivery have
been destroyed by a forest fire now
raging near Tolt, in this county. The
fire is the worst that has broken out
this side of the Cascade mountains
this season. 1t is eating its way into
valuable green timber owned by the
ONeil company.
That the fire might have been
checked in its early stages, before it
destroyed the large quantity of logs,
had the contractors getting out the
timber taken the pains to put in few
fire fighters, was the statement made
today by d. P. Simons, chief warden
of the Washington Forest Fire asso-
citation. Mr. Simons stated that the
loggers made no attempt to check the
fire, but pulled their apparatus out of
the path of the flames instead of COM
batting them.
Another bad fire is burning in green
timber owned by the Taylor Logging
company and by the Hewitt-Lea Lum-
ber company, on the east side of Lake
Washington. Conditions are now worse
than they have been in years, accord
ing to Mr.. Simons. Rain has not fallen
since early June, and the forests in
many places are as dry as tmder.

PENNSYLVANIA R. R. AND ITS
$4,000 EMPLOYEES AGREE
Company and Representatives of
Unions End Negotiations

PHILADELPHIA, July 1S-W. H.
Meyers, general manager of the Penn
sylvania railroad and the committee
representing the 5000 trainmen and
conductors employed on the lines of
the road east of Pittsburg, today
agreed on a basis for the settlement
of the wage controversy Each side
claims to have gained all that it had
been contending for. The negotiations
have been in progress for six months
and eliminated last week in the strike
vote by the employees. The proposition
offered today by the railroad and ac-
cepted by the men includes a mini
mum day of ten hours as detailed in
the New York Central award. The
question of overtime was left to be
decided at later conferences
It was further agreed that the men
would be guaranteed twenty-six days
work a month. While the men ac-
cepted this as a concession, the rail-
road officials say that during the re-
cent hard times, the men were bene-
flied by being worked on short time
instead of being laid off altogether.

FEAR FAMOUS LEANING
PISA TOWER MAY FALL
Foundation of One of Worlds
Wonders Is Menace to
Safety of Structure
Especial to The Herald

PISA, Italy, July 1S.-The govern
ment engineers, acting under the direc-
tion of the king, have made an exam
ination of the famous leaning tower of
Pisa. During the last year the tower
has moved some eight inches, and the
engineers report that it is in great dan
ger of falling. Each day the founda-
ton of the historic structure grows
more tottering. The police are having
great trouble in keeping the crowds
away from the tower, as the spectators
expect to see the mass of brick and
stone go crashing to the ground any
moment.
The tower of Pisa has withstood the
ravages Of time for hundreds of years
and is classed as one of the seven won
ders of the world. It's passing will be
nearly as much of a loss to globe trot-
ter as the destruction of the pyramids.
The tower is 179 feet high and fifty
feet in diameter.

TRICK JUMPER SHOWS
COURT HOW He DOES IT
Acrobat Performs for Judge in a
Suit Against Railroad for
Injury Damages

HAMILTON, Ohio, July 1S.-An aero.
batic performance was given in COM
mon pleas court here today, that the
verdict of $500 against the c., H. & d.
railroad may be allowed to stand.
William Deonso, a trick jumper, was
the performer and Judge Murphy was
audience and critic. Deonso was hurt
in railroad accident nine years ago,
later suing the company and being
awarded $500 damages.
He had been jumping in and out of
barrels for a livelihood, but after the
accident claimed he could no longer do
that trick, and perfected a new per-
formance.
The railroad sought to have the ver-
dict set aside, claiming that the new
trick was more difficult than the other.
Deonso thereupon went through the
new trick and showed the court that
while it seemed difficult to an audience
any child could do it with a bit of
coaching.
The court took the matter under ad-
ViSement.
