RAINY River is
SAVED BY Rain
DownpOur Checks Fires Near
Ontario Town.
LOSS WILL BE IMMENSE

Flames Cut a Wide Swath Over a
Large Area and Large Number of
Settlers Will Be Homeless and Al
most PenniIess-Forest Fires in
Wisconsin Also Put Out of Business
by Heavy Downpour.
Winnipeg, July 25.-The latest re-
port made to the Canadian Northern
railroad officials from the Rainy River
fire threatened district is that a strong
southeast wind is blowing the fire
away from the town 1t is also rain
ing quite hard. The people of the
town now believe that all danger is
past.
Nearly 1000 feet of hose was dis
patched by express to Rainy River
and all the available engines of the
Canadian Northern railroad were sent
TO be ready in case the rolling stock
of the railway should have to be
moved
To the north of Devlin and CroZier
the flames cut wide swath and hard
ly stick of green timber can be seen.
The loss will be heavy both to the set
tiers and to the government. 1t is
certainly the worst calamity in years
and large number of settlers will be
homeless and almost penniless.
The water in the lower river has
fallen several feet, caused by the clos
ing of the gates at the big power dam
here in order that the water can be
conserved in the lake, as no rain has
fallen of any account for some weeks
Everyone has been busy fighting the
fire and the struggle in many cases
has been most desperate.
