TIME SAVES $3.50 THIEF.
Statute of Limitation Now Applies
in Chicago Subtreasury Case.

Statute of Limitation Now Applies
I'm Chicago Subtreasury Case.
The mystery of who stole $4,000
from the United States subtreasury in
Chicago three years ago may be solved
some day, but never in a criminal
court. The statute of limitations has
run against any sort of criminal ac-
ton, and the much-sought thief is now
free to come out and tell all about it
without fear of being sent to Jail. All
that is now left of the famous case is
a libel suit instituted by George w.
Fitzgerald. the former cashier in the
subtreasury, after he had been arrest
ed and dismissed without trial on tie
charge of having stolen the money.
The defendants to this suit are Will
liam Boldenweck, subtreasurer; H. F.
Young, manager of Chicago detective
agency, and a morning newspaper.

Ohio Food Dealers Manage 10 Bring
in an Extra MiddIeman.
Chairman d. W. Williams of the
legislative food probe committee said
letters reviewed by him indicated that
many of the big concerns dealing in
foods attempt to evade the operations
of the Valentine antitrust law by ap-
pointing wholesalers and retailers as
their agents to dispose of their prod
ucts. Senator Williams said the sys-
tenn enables manufacturers to dictate
both wholesale and retail prices and
prevents retailers buying direct from
manufacturers, thereby injecting an
extra middleman in all cases. If the
food probers find this 1t not a law
violation they will introduce bills to
prohibit and also seek to end the al
legged dictation of prices.

Spokane, Wash, Aug. 24.-It is be- lieved that more than 200 men, near ly all fire fighters, have perished in the Idaho forest fires Superintendent Wiegel of the Occur D'Alene forest, after receiving many reports of disas- ter from various parties of his 600 employees, posted a bulletin today at Wallace, announcing the death of 11S men, and he also stated that there was grave concern for the safety of Ranger Joseph Hahn and seventy four men, who were surrounded by fire on Friday night in the Big Fork of the Occur D'Alene river, near where another party lost thirteen men.

THE DEAD OF MONTANA.
Net So Many Perished As Had Been
 Feared.

Missoula, Mont, Aug. 24.-Today's developments in the forest fire situa- tion in Montana are encouraging. For the first time in several days the sun shone through the pail of smoke. Men hitherto reported as missing are being found The intensity of the flames, though not altogether sub dued by the snow and rain storm of last night, was greatly reduced, and all the towns in the fire swept dis tricts are out of danger.
 From the mass of sensational re- ports early in the week there are only nine authenticated deaths in Montana. These included eight min CTS at the Bullion mine. near Borax, and one death at Taft. A few are still missing, but the list of these is gradually diminishing. The day also brought a denial of the report that a Chicago, Milwaukee & Puget Sound train was hemmed in by fire in north ern Idaho.
 With assurances that the storm has materially .lessened danger, scores of refugees have started to return to their deserted homes along the Occur D'Alene line Of the Northern Pacific. Some have lost their homes, while others who never expected to see theirs again find them undamaged- The refugees are being carried home bv the Northern Pacific free of charge. Telegraphie and telephonic communi- cation is being re-established, and the railroads are forwarding repair sup plies for the restoration of their lines.

The Number of Fire Victims Has
 Been Exaggerated.

MissOula, Mont, Aug. 24.-District Forester w B. Greeley. in charge of District No. l, which includes the re- serves of Montana and Idaho through which fires are now raging, said late tonight that the general situation was much improved. The locality causing the greatest uneasiness is in the Occur D'Alene reserve, where no at tempt to fight the flames is being made, all energy being centered in relief work.
 From information at hand Greeley was inclined to estimate the total casualties thus far at not to exceed seventy-five When shown a state ment issued by Supervisor Weigel from Wallace, Idaho, that 11S of his men had lost their lives, Greeley questioned the accuracy of the state ment that thirty men had been killed at Grand Forks, in the light of his reports As to the missing party un- der Joseph Hahn, Greeley said there were, according to his reports, only fifteen in the party.
 By tomorrow night Greeley hopes to have full information as to the dead and missing.

NOT SURE OF OUTCOME
But He Will Be At the Convention, Make His Originally Pla n n e d Speech and Endeavor to Reorganize the Party.

Utica, N. Y, August 24-Theodore , Roosevelt served notice today that he would wage war without quarter on the "Old Guard" of the republican party in New York state Having been drawn into the fight. as he says against his will, he is determined to pursue it to the end, win or lose. Colonel Roosevelts intention was in- dicated more clearly than any time before by a statement which he is sued today.
 The colonel said he was going into fight with his eyes open and in full realization of the fact that he might not be successful. He said he felt that, owing to the attitude of the members of the organization, he is at perfect liberty to carry on an uncom- promising warfare.
 When the statement by William Barnes, Jr., the Albany leader, to the effect that there would DS 6 fight in the convention against it's domination by Colonel Roosevelt. was read him Roosevelt said: They will have all the fight they want. I am only go- ing to the convention because I feel that the interests of the people of New York demand that the republi- can party be given chance to stand squarely and uncompromisingly for clean. decent. honest politics.
 "I shall go to the convention and make a speech exactly as had been planned originally and while I hope there will be enough good sense to prevent anyone opposing the princi- ples for which I shall stand. yet if they do oppose them then it will be their own affair and so far as I am concerned. the issue shall be absO lutely clean cut
 Some of Colonel ROosevelts closest friends in the state told him that they were doubtful of the outcome He replied that he himself felt that even though successful in the state convention andO even if suchsa plat form as he desired should be adopted, the result of the election would be in grave doubt. The colonel told his friends that he did not feel sure that the Roosevelt Hughes forces would receive the unqualified support from the organizations at polls.
 Vice President Sherman who is one of the central figures in the struggle and whom Roosevelt opposed by his endorsement of Senator Davenport, said emphatically tonight that he would not talk about the situation.
 Colonel Roosevelt spent the day with his brother-in-law Douglas Rob inson, at his country home, twenty miles east of Utica. Late tonight he went to Herkimer by automobile and came to Utica by train to resume his westeward trip.
