FGght-Trains Bring Tales of

WINNIPEG, Man, Oct. 10.-Lat-
est reports of the fires in the Rainy
River district of Minnesota tonight
increase the horror of the situation.
Estimates of the number of persons
killed range from rs to 400 tonight.
Many conservative men placed the
number of deaths at more than 100.
But a greater concern for the pres
ent is the rescue of the helpless and
the relief of thousands of homeless
men and women and children Stories
Of wild animals fleeing for safety side
by side with human beings, of moth
ers burned to death with babies on
their breasts and men cremated while
endeavoring to shield children were
among the tales of horror brought in
today.
Country Laid Waste.
The Duluth express today brought
many refugees from the scene of con-
fagraton. The engineer of the train
in describing the situation, said if
the fire keeps on at its present speed
there will be little left of the popula-
ton in that part of Minnesota.
For miles around Baudette and
Spooner the country is sweet clean.
He said from his engine it appeared
that every mill in the country except
that of the Shevlin Mattiel company,
had been burned and all lumber in
every yard was consumed. All rail-
road ties have been charre and III

Tell Thrilling stories.
A thrilling story of the situation
is that of Mrs. Townsend of Warroad
refugee on the Duluth train. She
said that two trains loaded with peo-
pie left Warroad last night after mid
night, but she did not know whether
they reached place of safety or not
She says the town of Baudette is en-
trely destroyed. Every one in War

ARMORY MAY BE ERECTED
Citizens Are Considering a Struc-
ture at Corner of Walnut and
Third Streets.

North Yakima Is very likely to
have an armory and an auditorium.
The plans are afoot and seem prop
able of carrying. DR. p. Frank and
other citizens are engaged in the I'M
dertaking and a careful investigation
of the conditions makes their plans
appear excellent. The building, II
constructed, will be on property at
the northwest corner of Third and
Walnut streets. now owned by DR..
Frank. This property is 100 by 40
feet and the structure would be 100
by 100 feet, so built that there would
be at least IS by 100 feet of the floor
free from posts or other OBSTRUCTION.
The structure will have a balcony
surrounding the floor. a number Of
small office rooms and in all proba-
bility we'll equipped kitchen.
Military Men Agreed.
The two local military companies
will take the structure for a portion
of each week and will pay rental
of $50 n month therefor. For the
balance of the time it is expected
there will be frequent opportunities
for rental, as the building will be
Just south Of the proposed federal
building and on one of the few
streets in the city not occupied as yet
by the street railway company, though
close to the lines carrying passen-
gers.
There is an urgent need on the part
of the local members of the national
guard for n drill hall and general
armory and it was to meet this need
that DR.. Frank and his associates
first began to look into the matter.
The character of building has not
been determined, but those engaged
in the undertaking anticipate that
they will have to cXpcnd at least $12,-
600. as no temporary structure will
suffice

This morning expert miners at the
head Of rescue parties were confident
that n number of mon walled in by
the explosion, were alive ana might
be rescued. They believed the port
able fans forcing pure air into the
workings would keep the men in the
extreme southern portion Of the mine
alive until they could be reached. But
as tho day rescue party stumbled
slowly out of the stopc tonight, one
glance OF their weary, dust grimcd
faces told the watchers that hope
was almost cxtingushcd.

Of finding the mine clear OF debris

Dublin. May &.-(Special.)-A most re-

were assisted by Revs. ]. Stuart, 1, L. D.,

ranks. Presbyterian, Methodist, Baptist
and Congregational, all were there.
