or as soon as practicable, and there
after adding one years college work
to the curriculum each year until the
institution is full-Aedged college do
ing four years of college work, and to
ascertain if the citizens favored such
pan and were willing to unanimously
support it in every way"possible.

zens met at the call of Dr. MacLachlan
and Mr.. Peoples. Dr.. MacLachlan
briefly stated the purpose of the meet
ing and was elected chairman. Rev.

NV Associated Press)

CHICAGO, July A-Another move
to work out practically the idealistic
Plan of Chicago outlined more than
year ago by the Commercial club, has
been made by the securing of site
for the new postoffce on the west side.
The block bounded by Congress, Van
Buren,, Clinton and Jefferson streets
has been selected by Secretary of the
Treasury MacVeagh, with the approval
of the Chicago Plan commission. The
new post Office is needed now to help
relieve the congestion in the present
structure, which was too small from
the time it was opened. The proposed
site is not far from the city center"
in the plan. Work in remodeling the
city to conform to that plan has pro-
gressed rapidly. The widening of
Twelfth street, the widening of Michi-
gan avenue to connect the boulevard
systems of the North and South sides,
and the reclaiming of the lake front
for the benefit of the public, have all
been gotten we'll under way The lat
ter work is probably the most preten-
tious and will mean more in the way
of both beauty and pleasure than any
thin else. Several miles of lake front
parks will result from the adoption of
a better method of disposing of debris.
and at Comparatively little expense.
The Plan commission is also continual
ly urging the establishment of more
bathing beaches.

addition to pleasant and instructive
time. 80 inches of rain, the first fall

fair at Grand Forks will throw open the
gates of the fair to the people of the
state to give opportunity for a week OF

creditable in every way and which will
be worth coming to see for purposes
of education in the resources of the
state, of instruction in how best to
make those resources available, and of
entertainment of clean, wholesome
kind.

NEW YORK, July 24.-The string
ent measures taken to prevent an
epidemic of cholera here undoubtedly
will lprove effective, according to the
health officers, who today noted that
no new cases had developed since
last Saturday, when Manuel Ber-
nudes, the Spanish fireman, was
found to be suffering from the disease
at Bellvue hospital.
Rtports from Hoffman island this
morning state that there were no
further suspicious cases of sickness
among the detained passengers of the
steamer Moltke, and that more of
these passengers probably will be re-
leased soon from uarantine No fur
ther deaths were reported from Swim
burne island, where Burmudes is said
to be in the same condition as when
he. arrived there from Bellvue. The
steamers Perugia and Principe Di

CONSTANTINOPLE. July 24.-Two
square miles of the city were devas-
tated. 1t is roughly estimated that
over 5000 houses were destroyed. The
greater number of these were wooden
buildings, but several important stone
structures were ruined.
Stambul, having the sea of Marmo-
ra on the south, and Bosphurus on
the east, with the Golden Horn inlet,
Bosphorus on the north, has a sea
rfent of eight miles. On the west it
is walled. This district contains
Scraglie. the sultan's palace, princi-
pal mosue, mausoleums, public Of
fices, baths and remains of ancient
Constantinople.
CONSTANTINOPLE, July 24-The
cont1agration which started yesterday
afternoon continued until this morning
by which time the flames were gotten
under control, practically because
there was no further fuel in their path.
The disaster was the greatest since the
great fire in Pera, the European quar-
ter. in 1870.
1t is believed that the present fire
was the work of political incendiaries.
Fire broke out simultaneously at sew
eral points in Stambul, the Ancient
city. while people were celebrating the
anniversary of the new constitution.

PROGRAM IN SENATE
INCLUDES TARIFF BILLS

WASHINGTON, July 24-This
week the senate will clear its decks for
an action which will determine, in
comparatively short order, iust how
much tariff legislation there is to be at
the present special session of congress.
This action will revolve largely around
the farmers free list bill, to which
both democrats and insurgents are pre-
pairing amendments exceeding the scope
of that bill as it went through the
house.
When dates were being fixed, on July
IA, for voting on the important meas
ure and for the senate, the democrats
and republican insurgents-tariff revi-
sionsts-insisted that the free list bill
be voted on last of all the tariff meas
ures. 1t had been originally proposed
that the free list bill should come up
after reciprocity. the wool bill to fol-
low along afterwards. but to this the
tariff revisionists would not consent.
and so the date for the vote on wool
was advanced, and that on the free list
set farther back
This move was clearly to give time
for the careful framing of revised
tariff schedules to be offered in ad-
dition to the free list bill.
The program is: Vote on the wool
bill Thursday, one week later a vote
on the free list bill. Many amend
ments are being prepared to the latter
measure.

CRY Of ROBBERS
CAUSES SMALL Panic

One woman was injured and 200
other passengers badly frightened last
night when west bound passenger train
No. 5 on the Northern Pacific passed
through the town of Burleigh, ham,
let twelve miles east of Bismarck, by
rocks crashing through the windows of
every car on the train.
With the memory of the recent hold
up fresh in mind the incident caused
a panic, which was allayed only when
it became evident that the train would
not stop.
A rock with shattered glass struck
one woman in the face with force suf-
fcient to render her unconscious for a
time, but none of the other passen-
gers received more than scratches and
the nervous shock incident to such an
unusual occurrence.
Railway officers were notified here,
and an investigation started. 1t is not
known whether the stoning of the train
was the work of small boys or hoboes
disappointed because the train did not
stop at Burleigh.
