JOHN LEE DROPS
DEAD ON Street

John Lee, a laborer, aged about 40
years, dropped dead on Main street
yesterday afternoon. Though he had
been imbibing freely of near beer"
his death is ascribed to heart failure.
Little is known concerning the de-
ceased other than that he came from
the east and has been employed by
Twohy Brothers on the railroad con-
struction work west of this city during
the past few weeks. In company with
other laborers from the construction
camps he was in town yesterday af-
ternoon. While standing on the side
walk near the Gritman Brothers cigar
store he was seen to topple over into
the arms of Jesse Mcconnell, express
man. A few seconds later he was
dead.
An effort is being made by his en-
ployers to locate relatives in the east
and to ascertain what disposition to
make of the body.

FOREST FIRE DAMAGES.
Expert Cruisers Estimate 100000, 900
Feet of Timber Burned

Spokane, Wash.-Expert cruisers in
Spokane, who are now compiling re-
ports from the burned districts in
Idaho, Washington, Oregon and Mon
tana estimate that the recent forest
fires destroyed or damaged more
than 750,000,000 feet of timber in
the four states.
Converted into merchantable lum-
ber, it is estimated this timber would
have supplied building material for
the construction of from $4,000 to
$1,000 four and five-room cottages.
or enough to house the entire popu-
lation of any city in the four states
named
To reduce this timber to CONNER
cial uses would keep 400 sawmills
in the inland empire busy from five
to six months. while at the present
coast of cutting and marketing an
army of skilled and ordinary labor
ers would have received $500, 900 in
wages.
F. ]. DIVES, secretary Of the Coeur
d'Alene Timber Protective associa-
ton, says that while the loss of life
has not been as large as the dispatch
es have Indicted, he estimates the
timber loss in that part OF northern
Idaho is not less than 500,000,00
feet.
James P. McGoldrick of Spokane,
president of the Western Pine Manu-
facturers' association, believes the
fire losses in Idaho have ben greatly
exaggerated, though he admits the
situation probably is the worst in the
history of the Pacific northwest.
According to recent estimates,
there was 35O,0OO,O00 feet of stand
ing timber in the inland empire for
ests," Mr.. McGoldrick said. "The
lumber interests have been hit hard
and the losses are enormous, but I
am of the opinion that many of the
reports sent out were gross exaggera-
tions. OF course. I 90 not believe
this was intentional on the part Of
the newspaper correspondents"
Officers of the Western Forestry
and Conservation association say it is
impossible to ascertain the total loss
at present.

COPENHAGEN WILL
TAKE OVER TRANS

acknowledgements is to
have municipal streetcars. The city,
by a majority of eight, decided to take
over the lectric tramways of the city
beginning August, 1911.
The system in question includes
25.5 miles of double track and 10
miles of single track and employs 279
motor cars and 191 trail cars. Five
of the latter are single horse cars.
The company has q capital stock
which in American currency would
be about s3,OOO,000. In 1909 the COM
pany carried 7O,949.345 passengers
and about 100000 motor car miles
were run. According to the franchise
terms, beginning August, 1898, the
tramway would revert to the city
without any payment after lapse of
80 years, after one years notice, these
periods to commence with 1907-0S.
In 1907 the city decided not to util-
ize he right, but this year the vote to
purchase was carried by the small ma
jority mentioned. The price to be
paid will be settled by arbitration.
Under the existing franchise the city
received five per cent of the COM
pany's gross receipts, and also has
monopoly of supplying the power at
four cents per kilowatt hour. The
profit from this latter arrangement
amounted to more than 100000 last
year, and the city's net income in
1909 from both sources amounted to
about 100000. The company
charges a uniform fare of three cents
and gives free transfers The maxi
mum travel possible for single fare,
without transfer, is about seven miles.
