Citizens Of southernmost City in the

Losing Trade.


Washington, Jan. 31.-Anxiety is be-

southernmost city in the world, over
the possible effects of the opening OF
the Panama canal on traffic through
the Straits Of Magellan. according to

many public improvements, has
thrived particularly as a result of the
ocean traffic which may be diverted

From. the Reporter

The residence Of Phil Trainor, 3
miles south OF town, caught fire at
IL O'Clock Thursday night and burn
ed to the ground. The lire started
in the roof OF the kitchen and had
gained such headway before being
discovered that the family barely es-
capped with their lives. The boys
with the exception Of the youngest,
were awakened and got down stairs,
but Mr.. Trainor was compelled to
rush through the burning flames to
rescue the little fellow. The family
escaped with but scant clothing and
the house and nearly all the con-
tents were consumed. Mr.. Trainors
loss will exceed $4,000. He had but
$500 OF insurance, 1t being carried IN
