WATERS BARNS

Fire Supp osed to Have Started
from Burning Rubbish.
SIX VALUABLE HORSES LOST
Miss Fashion Had a Record of 2:22I4
and Valued at $500. II. H."
With Record of 2:194,
Worth 100000.

Fire shortly after one o'clock this
afternoon, supposed to have original
ed from burning rubbish at the rear
of the Hotel Downing, almost COM
pletely destroyed the Frank Waters
livery and feed stable on First avenue
east and burned six horses. The fire
was discovered shortly after one
o'clock, in the west sheds near the
hotel. The flames spread so rapidly
that in short time all the rear barns
were in flames. Six valuable horses
lost their lives. A valuable trotter,
Miss Fashion," owned by r. Fitch,
was among those burned. Two valu-
able trotters belonging to Harry Hen
we're also burned. Jack Harrison
lost one of his horses, and the G. G.
Sheppard saddle horse was also
burned. Will Ballinger's valuable
horse was also among those burned.
Some of the horses liberated were
burned in passing from the building.
Chas. McCulloch's horse was badly
burned in escaping and several others
| we're burned about the back and legs.
Owing to the heat it was impossible
to approach the fire and it will be
some time before the bodies are re-
covered.
Being short distance away the
ire department made quick response
and in few minutes two streams
were under control in a few minutes
we're under sontrol in a few minutes
but the heat was so intense while it
lasted that the horses were probably
killed almost instantly. Many horses
in the barn were freed and turned in
70 the streets. Some of the burned
horses were freed by the men at the
barn, but being so bewildered by the
ire and smoke, failed to make their
escape. All the buggies and harness
in the front or brick part of the barn
were saved.
The chief loss is the valuable
horses owned by Jack Harrison and
Frank Fitch. Mr.. Fitch's trotter,
Miss Fashion" had a record of
2:22A and Mr.. Fitch had refused a
$500 offer on her. The PAGER, y. II.
H." of Jack Harrison, held a record
Of 2:19A and was easily worth 81 1000.
The other horses were also valuable,
and especially to their owners, who
will miss them. The loss to the

FOR STEALING A WIRELESS.
Los Angeles Publisher Indicted 70
Printing intercepted Dispatch.

Los Angeles, Aug. 5.-Edwin T.
Earl, mine owner and publisher of the
Los Angeles Express and of the Los
Angeles Tribune, was indicted by a
grand jury here, charged with disclos-
ing in the Tribune the contents of an
intercepted wireless message.
Earl construed the message as indi-
eating an alliance of the three morning
papers, competitors, against the Earl
papers and it was printed in the Tri-
bune. So far as is known here, the
indictment is the first of the kind in
any country.
The indictment was the latest and
most spectacular phase of bitter edi-
torial controversy between Earls pa
pers and the Los Angeles Times, the
Los Angeles Examiner and the Los
Angeles Herald, concerning the cirou-
lation of the recently established Tri-
bune.

been busy day and night distributing
advertising matter in regard to the
city of Norfolk, where it would do the
most good. At Chicago, Detroit, Nj
agara Falls, Buffalo, Rochester, Clay
ton, N. Y, and Montreal copies of the
Norfolk booklet and Carlson's speech
pamphlet were left at the public IL
braries and at all principal hotels.
The Norfolk buttons were thrown
around and pinned on nearly every
body met. One morning Mr.. Cabaniss
hired taXicab and made all Boston
hotels, distributing more booklets and
buttons. He also took booklets to the
Boston public libraries.
At big public mass meeting Mr..
Cabaniss made arrangements to have
a copy of both booklets put on every
seat in the auditorium before the
doors were opened for the meeting.
And these booklets were all eagerly
read.
All the Boston newspapers are print
ing on the front page each day list
of the delegations attending the con-
vention and the hotels at which they
may be found. Norfolk, Neb., appears
on this list The Norfolk advertising
has received many compliments from
the experts attending the convention
and Norfolk has had more individual
advertising than any other city in Ne
braska represented at the convention.
