Spokane, Wash, Aug. 27,-There is
much confusion in compiling the lists
of dead, owing to the fact that all fire
fighters were included with number
of the employees Of the forest service.
Supervisor Weigle, who abandoned
the search yesterday for Ranger 10.
seph B. Hahn and party, who were lost
in the mountainE at the headwaters of
the st. Joe river, has received no word
from that party. According to
Wallace authorities there were thirty
five men in the party.
Tragic stories are told by arrivals
from the fire in Idaho. George Ryan,
of Toronto, Can. one of the thirty men
imprisoned in the War Eagle mine
Saturday. out of whom six persisted,
said:
"There were seventy-five of us un-
der Ranger Pulaski. We first took ref
uge in the tunnel of the ]. |. c. mine.
1t was not safe, and after we had been
there short time thirty of us went
down the creek a quarter of mile to
the War Eagle. | don't know what be-
came of the rest of the men.
Pulaski told us to lie down as close
to the floor of the tunnel as we could,
or close to the walls. We tried to
block the entrance Of the tunnel with
blankets, but the fire burned them off
as fast as we could put them up.
Two men, who got scared and
rolled around in the middle Of the tun-
mel, instead of keeping by the edge or
on the floor, died across my knees"
George Biberton, living southeast Of
Wallace. declared that the number
killed in the forest fires will never be
known.
"1n going through the bare woods,
he said, "one comes upon few charred
bones lying on the black ground. That
is all that is left of a settler or fire
fighter. The reports sent out from Ida
no are not exaggerated In the least.
Harvey Bertram. a deputy ranger
who done invaluable service fighting
fires, had difficulty holding part of the
crazed men. Believing they were being
trspped, one or two of his party
threatened to commit suicide rather
than be burned to death. At times
Bertram was able to control them
only at the point of revolver. He
lined up the men and said he would
shoot the first one who deserted the
ranks. Only by this means was he
able to save them.

CONGRESSIONAL COMMITTEE
DISBANDS AT KANSAS CITY.

Tulsa, Okla, Aug. 27.-The congress
sional investigating committee arrived
in Tulsa yesterday afternoon slightly
after o'clock and were taken in hand
by committee from the Commercial
club and escorted to hotel. After a
short rest they were taken for Wis
it to the oil fields north of the city,
and were also shown around the city.
The committee has been investi-
eating the Gore charges and has fin
ished its work in this state and will
meet in Washington in November to
compile their report to congress. At
this time it is, of course, impossible
to tell what the tenor of the report
will be. The charges made by Sena-
tor Gore have caused a sensation
such as has not been sprung in years
in this country.
The committee went to Kansas
City last night and disbanded to take
their belated summer vacations.
Commissioner J. George Wright,
known to many Tulsans. was with the
party. Commissioner Wright is prob
ably one of the best known men in
the history of the affairs of the Five
Civilized tribes.
The personnel Of the the party party was as
follows: P. p Campbell of Pittsburg,
Kan, c. B. Miller of Minnesota, both
members of congress; J. George
Wright and Charles H Burke of
Pierre, S. D. Mr.. Burke is the chair
man of the committee. Two govern
ment stenographers also accompanied
the party.

Cheyenne, Wyo, Aug. 27.-Roose-
welt arrived here at 9:12 this morn
ing. An immense crowd met him,
|cowpunchers yelled welcome, Sioux
and Shoshone braves, gay in war paint,
waited silently for view of the great
chief.
The Colonel was greeted by Gov.
Is. b. Brooks and escorted to the in
dustrial club by squadron Of United
States cavalry. Fifteen hundred cow
boys and cowgirls and two hundred In
dians joined in the procession.
The parade through the streets, ac-
|companied by Roosevelt in an auto
mobile, began today's celebration.
Reaching the reviewing stand in the
center of the city. he reviewed the
troops. He began speaking at the
Frontier Day celebration at 2:S0 this
afternoon. He said:
when, at the close of my hunting
trip in Africa, | reached the borders of
civilization, the first invitation ac-
Icepted was this, to visit the capital of
Wyoming on the day when the people
of the frontier came together to COM
morate their achievements; was glad
lit was so, because I have a peculiar
feeling for the men and women of what
fused to be called the Far West, es-
Ipecially for those of the cattle country.
For a number of years | lived on a
ranch on the little Missouri, sharing
work and play, good fortune and bad
fortune, with my neighbors; working
on the roundup, serving as delegate
from the Little Missouri roundup dis
trict to the Montana Stock Growers as
lsociation, and even at times acting as
deputy sheriff at my end of the coun-
TRY. | count those years as among the
most valuable of my life. because moth
Il ing breed such community of feeling
as to work with ones fellew men st
their life tasks, and to learn to know
their feelings by actually sharing them
The man of the West, throughout the
successive stages of Western growth
has always been one of the two OF
three most typical figures-indeed,
am tempted to say, the most typical
figure-in American life, and no man
can really understand our country and
appreciate what 1t really is and what
| it promises unless he has the fullest
and closest sympathy with the ideals
and aspirations of the West The
Iprime reason for this is to be found
in the fact that the Westerner is so
good an American He is an American
first and foremost; for this. is the great
lesson, friends, that all of us need tc
llearn and to keep, the lesson that 1t Is
unimportant whether man lives
North, South, East or West, provided
he is genuinely and in good faith ar
American. that he feels every part Of
the United States is his own, and that
he is honestly desirous to upbuild the
interests of all other Americans in
whatever sections of the country they
may dwell
