23d distgict, and that Lake will get the other eight. Goodwin appears to have the Twelfth and the Tenth solid, with possibility of one defection in the Tenth. This is a majority of the Sen- atorial delegates in the 2Sd.
 The distinctive feature of Republi- can caucus contests last night was the struggle for the Aldermanic nomina- tion in the Ninth, where there were five candidates. Alderman Primrose was renolsdnated. having AT votes. William R. Muirhead~ had 40 votes, Nelson l.. Bottome 16, Charles Roder Il, and Jaes MacAleese 5.
 The opposition to Primrose was part ly due to his alliance with the Repub- lican ''Old Guard" and partly due to his votes in favor of the so-eaned harbor grab and car bar surrender which played so important part in the defeat of former Mayor Lee. Later he voted for the grab. The opposition delegation in the Ninth, Ar thur Comley, John Kinscella and Mar GUS L. Reynolds, was badly beaten.
 The delegates in the Tenth are un- pledged.
 First District-Macolm McFayden, G. Skiff Ford, W. B. Seeley.

and Idaho at about $20, 900, 900.
 Searchers started out from Thomp- sons Falls today. News of the dis appearance of the men was brought here by Forester Barney, who re- ported that the 500 men four days ago were sent to the Cabinet Reserve to fight the flames
 Barney says that Forest Supervisor Bushnell at Thompsons has had no word from the 500 men since they left Thompsons He expressed the belief that 1t would have been al- most impossible for them to obtain food in the Cabinet Reserve and said he feared they had been cut off from relief. Aside from the many report ed disasters to forest rangers the for estry officials both here and at Mis- soula declared that at a conservative estimate about 75 men, women and children have perfshed and that the loss to timber alone will not be less than $10.000,000. They said they could not estimate the damage to other property.
 The calling out of the entire state militia of Idaho and part of the militia of Oregon and Montana is be- lieved to mean a long step in the right direction. President Taft has telegraphed the executives of these three states commenting their action

As 6 result of last nights Repub- Hcan caucuses it appears to the ordin- lry observer as if the Lake and Bulke- ley men had captured a substantial majority of the delegates to the city convention, which will be held next week unless the result should be re- sersed at the primaries Friday night, which seems unlikely, as few contests are threatened, most factions seeming 10 be willing to abide by the caucus results.
 1t would appear that the nomina- ton of William B. Burnham rom the list Senatorial district is assured. and hat F. A. Bartlett cannot muster enough delegates ins the Senatorial convention to win.
 Yet the Goodwin men this morning proclaim themselves hopeful. And their proposition is substantially this, This mogning:
 'sIn this campaign the delegates are , freer to do as they please, freer than they have been in a long time. The big men have been keeping out of 1t, or have gone into the Gubernatorial and Senatorial contest very gingerly. Hawley is up to be reelected. Nobbs ls up for reelection. Matt Rogers wants tc go again.
 "Congressman Hill is undoubtedly Mclean man, but Marigold, Hills rep fesentative here. can't do much because the local machine, with which he trains, is for Lake.
 "6o," continued the speaker. I've es- fimate that the Goodwin cause is in good fettlei The delegates will be for anybody who can get them and we be- fieve that the convention will show that he has got majority of them"
 But the candid opinion of Repubn- rans who take an unbiased interest in politics seems to. be that if a vote were taken tonight in a convention composed of the successful caucus candidates for delegates that Goodwin could not muster over nine men to Ia vor sending a Goodwin delegation to the State convention.
 sThe impression seems to be that Goodwin win get two delegates, in the

and has promised to rush all avail able United States troops to the fire section on the sole condition that they must not be called upon to do police duty. The fire near Thomp- sons Falls is now the most serious.
 Forester Barney reported at Mis- soula that when he left Thompsons yesterday morning, a/wall of flames AEeral hundred feet high was sweep mg towards Thompsons from the west. The TOO inhabitants of the vi1- lage are packed and ready to flee but Barney feared that not only Thomp- sons but several nearby towns will be destroyed
 Sacramento, Cal, Aug. 24.-The United States troops fighting the for est fires in the Tahoe National For est in Placer County are making pro- gress.

BAD BOY MAY BE SENT TO GEORGE
 JUNIOR REPUBLIC

Louis Dombrosky, aged 16, will probably become citizen of the George Junior Republic at Litchfeld, if the authorities of the city court can perfect arrangements for his removal there. Young Dombrosky with other youths living near the store of Sam Paget, 197 Steuben street, has been stealing groceries and milk from Pa gets place.

 Here he will be taught the prin- ciples, of self government, and to an- swer to a court organized among the youthful citizens, for any shortcom- ing.

HOUSE OF MARCUS WHEELER ENTERED
 BY BURGLARS

Burglars gaining access to the home of Marcus O. Wheeler, 25 Washington avenue, near Park avenue, in the ab- sence of the family at their summer home in Long Hill, ransacked the house from cellar to attic but aside from clothing found nothing of value that they dared to carry off.
 Arthur Wheeler, a son, called at the house yesterday and found the place in confusion. The day before he found everything in order. When he told neighbors of the burglary they recalled having seen two suspi- cious characters lettering near the place on Monday night.
 Mr. Wheeler promptly notified police headquarters and an investigation was made. Mir. Wheeler believes a small quantity of clothing was taken, but he says that the silverware and valuables were made secure before the family closed the house.

MADDEN TO BE MOVED BECAUSE
 OF HOUSE FIGHT

Rumor has it that September 1 will see some shifting done in the fire de- partment. 1t tis understood that the commissioners have practically decided to transfer Captain Edward Madden from No. 3 Engine Company to No. T Englne Company, and to transfer Capt. C. B. Futile from No. ' engine to No. engine The transfer will be the result of the recent fracas in No. 8 engine house in which the men in the house took sides upon the question of one of their number being drunk The majority of the witnesses in the case testified that the man was drunk and Capt. Madden testified that he would not say that he was drunk The commissioners thought that the cap- tain should have been a little more definite in his testimony and they fined him $100. The next move of the commissioners will undoubtedly be to move Capt. Madden further out in the West End.

 Spokane Aug. 24-The end of the northwestern forest fire hor- TOT is not in sight, despite the inn proved conditions, according to to- days reports to the United States Forestry office from all parts of the fire zone. The alarm was increased when H. F. Kottkey, ranger in charge of the 800 men reported miss ing by Assistant Forester Wiegel staggered into Missoula last night with few of his men and reported that he did not know what had be- come of the rest. When last he saw any of them, said Kottkey, they were out in the burning district near Avery, seeking a means of escape. Several large parties of rescuers have gone out from Missoula and Spokane to search for the missing men.
 | The alarm over the fate of upwards of 800 forest rangers, who have not been heard from for several days, has not abated but there is general feeling. that in spite of their great peril they may have escaped alive.
