Sioux Falls. S. ID. - Something of

result of the determination OF the fed

move George Grigsby, son of Col. Mel

ton of United States attorney for the
district of Alaska.
In an effort to induce the Washing
ton authorities to change their minds
and At the same time set himself right
before them, George Grigsby now has
gone to Washington, the United States
attorney general having granted him
a hearing.
Although Mr.. Grigsby himself has
o yet made public his own version OF
the trouble in which he finds himself,

present difficulty is due to his having
in his official capacity antagonized the

Grigsby brought about the Indictment

PANIC FOLLOWS FIRST OUTCRY
At A PERFORMANCE IN
SCHENECTADY.
SMALL BOY CAUSED 1T
Wild Fight to Escape.-SevcraI
Faint, but Only One Person,
a Woman, Hurt.

Schenectady, New York. The
main tent of the Barnum and Bailey
circus caught fire at the afternoons
performance, when the great canvas
walled Enclosure was crowded with
$4,000 persons and burned completely
within less than an hour. A panic
started at the first outcry and IN an
instant thousands We're engaged in a
mad scramble for the exits. The cir
us employees kept their heads and
worked valiently to check the excite
ment but in the rush for safety they
were knocked down and trampled
under the feet of the frantic crowd.
Men, women and children tumblea
off the high-decked tiers of marrow
blue seats to scramble and fight with
one another in an effort to reach the
earth below. They ran into the rings,
antangling themselves in the guy ropes
and fell over the show gear. One
was injured but not severly
and hundreds tainted and were car
ried out by the policemen, fremen and
shOwpeOple.
The fire is thought to have started
from a lighted match that was drop
ped by a boy in the bleachers. The
blaze started on a guy rope and
climbed to the roof, which burned as
if it had been coated with oil. The
flames spread fast, feeding Oh acre
wide stretches of dry cloth and the
painted poles.
In al incredibly short time the
whole OF the main top was aDlaze.
The wind eddying under the SIDE
walls made cross currents nat sent
blazing brands flying in every direc-
ton.
First reports were that all the spec
tators had escaped in safety. A min
ute or two later word came that a
number of persons had been crushed
in the press or injured by falling rig
ging, but that SO far as could be as
certained, no one had been killed out
right.
This last report turned out to be

very long, the circus management was
able to assure the city authorities
that only a single spectator had been
burnt and that while a few of the cir
Gus people had been injured by falling
debris, none of them was in a serious
condition.
While some of the circus staff,
aided by performers, policemen and
cooler headed citizens, tried to re-
strain the rush, the canvasmen and
animal trainers, working with the dis
cipline of a perfect organization, struck
the menagerie and the lesser tents
and removed all the stock, the Gagged
animals and the horses to places of
safety without casualties.
