Goldfield Visited
ByDamagingFire

Godfeld was visited Wednesday by
a fire that threatened great damage
for a time, as it was, about ten thous-
and dollars damage was the result,
Fire broke out in the Curtain wall
paper shop and completely destroyed
the place. The Golden West and
Reno buildings were also damag ged
beyond repair. a. Mrs. Twillinger
who was asleep in the lodging house
was forced to jump from the second
story and was badly injured through
the fall that she sustained. The fire
originated through a defective flue in
the lodging house. For time 1t
was believed that the entire block

FRENCH FLOODS CONTINUE:
FAMOUS BUILDINGS RUINED
No Relief From the Situation. Dykes Break.
Flooding Districts. Factories are Wiped
out. Other Sections Threatened

PARIS, Jan. 2S.-The food anG
storm situation in this city and sur
rounding districts continues to men
ace every building along the flow of
the river Seine. 1t is rumOred today
| that the great dyke that protects
! Gennevilleres and surrounding agri-
cultural sections has gone out. 1t is
positively known that there is a bad
break in the levee and many hund-
reds have been rendered homeless.
During the morning the river has
shown another raise of two inches,
while the maximum height is expected
before nightfall. In Paris the river
has forced its way above Point de
l. Alma and poured into Course de la
Refine, which is now submerged to a
depth of two feet. Dozens of immcn-
Sc sewers nave collapsed while all OF
the subways are flooded rendering
traffic impossible.
Hundreds of factories situated on
the river bank have been abandoned,
several of them being undermined and
threatening to plunge into the angry
river. The water is now three feet
deep in the fashionable residential
sections of the city. Experts state
that the river will continue to rise
but will reach its maximum flow by
tonight
The government OF the municipality
has placed the military barracks and
public school buildings at the disposal
of the refugees who already number,
it is estimated, more than 100000.
Fifteen thousand iaborers OF the
city are out of work, and though sub
scriptions are pouring in, $200.000
having been raised last night of which
$1400 was contributed by tne Ameri-
can chamber of commerce, the gov
ernment decided today to ask parlia-
ment for an additional credit to be us
ed in relief work.

TO DEFEND PACIFIC COAST.

SEATTLE, Wash. october 11--That the
government and Navy Department are
we'll disposed toward the movement for
adequate protection of the Pacific coast
was the assertion made last night by Sec
rotary of the Navy George Won L. Meyer.
THAT explains my visit among you," he
said. Il have come here to look into con-
dtions and make preparations for a
proper defense of the Pacific coast
Before that can be DONE however. care
must be taken that this coast can main
tain a battleship fleet. 1t cannot do so
now. Your present dock would not &C
cOmmodate more than half of the smaller
ships of the navy. We cannot, therefore
divide our Atlantic fleet at this time.
Your new dock will not be completes
until 1912, but even then we could not
very well send fleet here.
lat San Francisco we have a different
condition. There we have an engineering
problem because of the large deposits of
silt. Not one of our large ships could
dock there now"
