Smaller buildings by the hundreds,

But few of those whose homes were
burned, saved any of their household
effects and guests of the hotels gave
little heed to their valuables and lug
gage in their efforts 10 escape the
flames
The fire originated within several
blocks of the United States Army and
Navy hospital and took south and
east course.
Driven by high wind the fire
spread rapidly. Within fifteen minutes
it was apparent that the fire fighting
force of Hot Springs was inadequate
and an appeal was made to Little
Rock for aid. Apparatus and men
were sent aboard a special train, but
the fire was then beyond control. Dy-
namite was resorted to when it was
apparent that water would be of no
avail, but this also failed to check the
blogress of the flames.
The burned district for some dis
lance skirts the business section and
several times shifting winds headed
he fire for the principal business
section, but each time the free use OF
explosives and an opportune change
n the wind saved it. Before nightfall
he task of checking the flames was
lbandoned and the combined fire

JEROME STILL AT
NORTON MILLS, VERMONT

Montreal Quebec, Sept 6.---An APP
plication for bail will be the next move
by the lawyers for Harry X. Thaw,
who yesterday succeeded in securing
from Justices Cross and Gervais, a
writ of habeas corpus returnable in
Montreal on September Is, and an or
der preventing the immigration Off
cials from deporting Thaw.
The legal contingent from Montreal
handling Thaw's case accompanied by
Gentleman" Roger Thompson, the
chauffeur who drove the rescue car
from Matteawan, returned on a special
train this morning.
! While the Thaw lawyers declined to
commit themselves, it is thought that
they will quietly appear in the court
of kings bench either today or Mon
day and make their appeal for bail
In legal circles here the belief is
held that the Thaw case is now safely
launched on its long trip to the privy
council.
Jerome Denounced.
Coaticook, Que, Sept 6--Wm Ira
vers Jerome, arrested in Coatioook
yesterday on charge of gambling,
was bitterly denounced by Justice of
the Peace James Mckee in his court
room today.
The grey-bearded magistrate was
very indignant when Jerome's counsel
that the New York lawyer
could not be present today and asked
an adjournment of the hearing of his
gambling case.
Il want to say" cried Mckee, bang
ing the table with his fist, that we
intend to prosecute Mr.. Jerome to
the full extent of the law He can't
come here and play his card games
before our children. This may be
suburb town, but we intend to enforce
our laws Our relations with the
American bar are cordial, but Justice
must be meted out in this CASE
The court then suggested that Je.
rome's bail be forfeited.
THAT would only hit two of our
citizens who went on ii" said Mr.. Han
son, the prosecutor. The justice said ?
le would let the bail stand and put
)ver the case until Sept. II.

San Francisco, Sept. 6.-Farle,
Drew Caminetti, son of the commits
sioner general of immigration, was
found guilty late yesterday on one
count of the Indictment charging hin
with violation of the Mann white
slave traffic act.
| The jury was out three hours and
took eight ballots. From the first, the
vote stood ten to two for conviction;
and finally the two recalcitrants
agreed to compromise by finding a
verdict of guilty on one of the four
counts charged.
Bail in the sum of $4,000 was fur
nished by Frank Freeman, of Willows,
Cal and G. Bacigalupi of San Fran
cisco, and was ready to be filed with
the United States marshal when the
verdict was announced. Sentence will

ii and convicted on four counts. Ex-
ceptions to the charge of Judge Van

MEXICAN ENVOY
SIMILAR TO
IS COMING TO WASHINGTON ON A
MISSION UNOFFICIAL IN CHAR !
ACTER, But WILL TREAT WITH
the UNITED STATES IF RECEIVED
OFFICIALLY.
SUIT FILED TO GET
SALAzAR's $1,000 BOND

! Washington, d. c. Sept 6The dec
laration of Federico Gamboa, Mexican
| foreign minister, that Manuel Zama
coma is coming to the United States
in an unofficial capacity, is interpret
ed here as meaning that the latter
will not be invested with power tC
represent the Huerta government un
til the United States indicates its
Willingness to receive him.
The view prevails that to receive
Zamacona would not conflict with ne.
gotiations being conducted by John
Lind President Wilson's personal en-
voy in Mexico.
Administration officials We're inclin-
ed to the opinion that if Zamacona
were received the parleys here would
supplement those carried on by Mr..
Lind.
Gamboa's s disclaimer, that verbal as
surances had been given to Charge
O'Shaugnessy that Huerta would not
be candidate, caused no surprise
here 1t is believed the Mexican Off
cials do not deem it the proper time
to make a public announcement of
Huerta's withdrawal, though the gov
ernment in all it's negotiations is tax
ing that for granted.
Suit for Bond.
Ell Paso. Texas. Sept 6-Suit was
filed today in United States court
against Jose Ynez Salazar and Alfred
Kerr. to recover $1,000 posted as "A
bond for Salazar when he was arrest
ed in FL Paso two months ago on a
charge of conspiracy to smuggle arms
to Mexico. Kerr is banker and Sala-
Ear is said to have deposited the cash
1ond with him. Salazar was indicted
when he was rebel operating against
Madero. When he was arrested he
was brigadier general of Huerta's
'ederal forces and came to Ell Paso to
get meal. Salazar posted bond and
'efused to come back.

Senator Smoot said he would vote
for the amendment, but predicted that
ii would not be many years when the
great pulp manufacturing business
would be transferred to Canada.

profits will go to Canadian manufac-
turers,' said Mr.. Smoot. Il want to
congratulate Mr.. John Norris. of the
American Newspaper Publishers as
sociation on this successful culmna-
ton of his long fight, He can go back

Senator Hughes in statement re-
lating to the retaliations against
Canada on pulp wood, said:
"All the burdens of these retalia-
tons must be borne by the American
Newspaper Publishers, who in 1912,
paid indirectly penalty of more than
$3,000,O0O in addition to the amount OF
duties paid directly. This
indirect tax was due to the artificial
prices which the combination of the
American paper makers has contin-
uously maintained. No print paper
can be bought in the open market. !
American mills will not sell news
