MILLIONS OF FEET
 OF TIMBER BURNED Losses In the Forest Fires
 Hard To Estimate
ENOUGH TO BUILD CITY
Wheat Dealer of the Northwest De- cIares That Dry-farmed Wheat Is Superior to the Grain Grown
 On Irrigated Land

Spokane, Wash, August 30.-(Special.)- now compiling reports from the burned districts in Idaho, Washington, Oregon and Montana, estimate that the recent forest fires destroyed or damaged more than 750,000, GOO feet of timber in the four states.
 Converted into merchantable lumber, 1t Is estimated this timber would have sup piled building material for the construc- ton of Nom 5o,ooo to 55,ooo four and five room cottages, or enough to house the entire population of any city in the four states named.
 ITO reduce this timber to commercial uses would keep 100 sawmills in the in land empire busy from five to six months, while at the present cost of cutting and marketing an army of skilled and ordi- nary laborers would have received $,- 500,000 in wages.
 F. J. Davies, secretary of the Occur d Alene Timber Protective association. says that while the loss of life has not been as large as the dispatches have in- dicated, he estimates the timber loss in that part of Northern Idaho Is not less than 5OOO0o,00o feet.
 James P. McGoldrick of Spokane. presi- dent of the Western Pine Manufacturers association, believes the fire losses in Idaho have been greatly exaggerated, though he admits the situation probably

CHARGE EACH OTHER
 WITH TRESPASSING

Tn the arrest last night by the sheriff forces of Miss Lulu Pierce and Miss Phoiebe Fisher for tresspassing, a long tale of trouble was unearthed The wal rant for the Misses Pierce and Fisher was issued at the instigation of Mrs Car re Fisher who few days ago was ar rested herself by Miss Pierce and Miss Fisher for trespassng. All three arrests grew out of a claim of ownership on house and lot on First avenue. between Tventy-secOnd and Twenty third streets. Who really owns the property and who trespassed can only be decided by the courts
 Mrs Fisher alleges that she is the sec- ond wife of Mr. Fisher, whom she mar ried a short time ago and went south with him He deserted her at New Orleans, she alleges, and with the assistance of the Travellers Aid she came back to Blr- mingham alone. She says that when she went to her home on First avenue she found it occupied by MT. Fishers daugh- ter by his first wife, and that she was refused admittance.
 Mrs. Fisher went to the county jail Sun day night and asked Warden Chew for help. MT. Chew told her that the only thing to do was to swear out a warrant for tresspass against her husband s daughter. Mrs. Fisher refused to do this, and the next day the daughter swore out a warrant for Mrs, Fisher Mrs. Fisher then swore out the warrant for her step daughter and Miss Pierce. All three are now on $100 bond each.

 When the negroes finished work they went to wash in the water One negro put his hands into the water and began to scream. The other, hearing his calls for help. went and attempted to pull him out.

NOTE FOR $5O,OOO
 PAID BY COMPANY
UNDERSTOOD THAT HOADLEY HAS ARRANGED TO TAKE CARE OF OBLIGATIONS OF ALABAMA CON- SOLIDATED COMPANY

Baltimore August 3o.-(Special. )-The Alabama Consolidated Coal and Iron company today paid off a note to local bankers for S50000. and between now and February l, will be called upon to pay off two more notes. aggregating $300000 This ia in addition to the sum required to pay interest on s436,000 first mortgage per cent bonds, and $1,741 GOO consolidated col lateral mortgage per cent bonds, aggre- gatng s56,650. The company has one note of s50,000 due next month. This is held by a Baltimore financial institution. It Is secured by ample collateral, as is also the note for s250.00o, due in February, which also is held by a local financial institution.
 Although no official statement on the subject has been given out, it is the un- derstanding in the financial district that Joseph H. Hoadley, who dominates the company, has arranged for the payment of all the obligations
 The company is said to be doing a good business, considering the condition of the iron market in general

is expected, will be largely written by Mir Smith himself, since, of course, 1t is to be drawn in accordance with his views and policies Naturally the plat form will be quite different from what 1t would have been had the election gone the other way
 Then will come the formal nominations of statehouse officers for the next two years. and there will probably be little shouting when the name of MT. smith IS presented to the convention in nomlaat- ing and several seconding speeches.
 The other state officials to be nomi- mated are as follows:
 Secretary of state, Philip Cook or Lee.
 Attorney general, T. s. Fielder of Biob.
 Comptroller general, w. A Wright or Fulton.
 state treasrer ". J. Speer of Fulton.
 state schooY commissioner M. L. Brit
 Commissioner of agriculture, T. G' Huo- son of Sumter
 State prison commissioner k. IL. Da- vison of Greene.
 State railroad commissioners, Joseph r. Gray of Chatham, James A. Ferry or Gwinnett and c. M. Candler of De kaln' Chief justice of the supreme court, W.. H. Fish of Sumter.
 Associate justice of the supreme court Marcus w. Beck of Spalding.
 Judge of the state court or appeais' k. B. Russell of Gwinnett.
 The state convention will also nominate formally the candidates chosen in the primary as judges and solicitors general of the 26 judicial circuits in the state
 Brown Adherents
 In this convention there will appear a strong minority vote-the delegates rep
 par rrip6 bV Gov ernor ABrown. Although their candidate was defeated these counties will still have representation and will be in po- sition to offer protest to whatever action they think demands it. It Is not unlikely that the minority will offer some reso- iutions \n various subjects just for the purpose Of securing public action by the convention even if it may be known in advance that they will be defeated.
 So far as has been ascertained, Edward H. Walker, the College Park candidate for governor, who received only TOUT votes in his home precinct, will not have even the small fraction of one-fourth Of a vote in the state convention, which he might have had under the prorsting rule had he received as much as one-eighth or the vote cast in any county
 Nevertheless. his candidacy had the effect of causing the prorating rule to De brought into play in two or three coun- lies where the vote was close, and where the few votes that were cast fot Walker prevented both Smith and Brown from getting a majority. This was true in Dodge and Brooks countless and perhaps the complete official returns will show the same state of affairs in ons or two other counties In the state with the re- suit under the profating rule. that the convention vote of these counties Will be divided between Smith and Brown.
