DAMAGING FIRE
At WASHBURN
Mill Owned by Washburn Mill
ing Company Is Destroyed
by Fierce Blaze.

Washburn, N. D., July 26.-The
large mill at Washburn, owned by the
Washburn Milling Co., was almost en-
tirely destroyed by fire this week.
The damage was partially covered by
insurance but the estimated damage
is $4,000.
The origin Of the confagration Is
unknown but it is believed the mill
caught fire from the severe lightning
storm experienced here. The local fire.
men responded to the alarm promptly
but on arriving at the scene found
the flames had gained such headway
that it was practically impossible to
save the structure. 1t is due to their
strenuous efforts that nearby proper
ty and considerable flour stored in
sheds adjoining the mill were saved.
The Washburn mill was erected in
1883 by Veeder and Satterland and
since that time has been in operation
every season. Two years ago the
mill was rebuilt and all modern ma
chinery installed. The product of this
mill supplied nearly the entire de-
mand in this vicinity and the loss is
a severe blow to milling operations.
The owners are undecided to date as
to just when they will rebuild.

BUTLER'S NAME
IS CLEARED
BY FUNSTON
SPANIEL Was Insanely Jealous
of His Wife, Says
Report.
INVESTIGATION SHOWS
OFFICER BLAMELESS

San Antonio, Texas, July 25.-The
official report on the killing of Col.
M. G. Butler at Alpine, Texas, last
week, by Harris Spaniel completely
|'ciSars tilfft name tof stlt dead 4nicnrs
The report transmitted to General
Funston today by Col. J. A. Castor,
district commander with headquarters
at Maria, says that Col. Butler was
aware that SPANIEL was jealous of
his wife and took care never to be
with her when others were not pres
ent.
The immediate incident that led to
the killing Of the Colonel and Mrs.
SPANIEL is described in the report.
Col. Castor, who Immediately left
for Alpine, following reports Of the
shooting, says that Col. Butler and
Mr.. and Mrs. SPANIEL had gone to
the home of a friend who was i'll.
and on their return to the hotel where
all lived, it was suggested that every
one, as a preoaution, should wash
their hands.
Col. CASTOR says that shortly after
this SPANIEL went to the Buffers
room and finding, apparently, only
Col. SPANIEL and Mrs. Butler there,
began to upbraid his wife. At this
point, however, Mrs. Butler came out
of the back room, and pointed out to
him that she was one of the party.
Soon after Spaniel took the Colo
mel and Mrs. SPANIEL on the ride
that ended in their being killed.

RESCUE WORK

WELL OPENED UP
IN LAKE BED

Cleveland, July 26.-The bodies of
the eleven men entombed in the West
Side waterworks tunnel may not be

and party made six trips into the tun-
mel this afternoon, and declared that
the deadly gas is so thick in the tun-
mel that further rescue work should
not be attempted until the flow is
stopped 1t is believed that the gas

well in the bed of the lake.
Forty men quit work at crib No. 5,

The death of Miss Ratcliffe, it is
claimed 'by the states attorney, was
due to bungling attempt to perform
an illegal operation. Air bubbles, it
is claimed, entered the circulatory
system Of the young girl, and when
they reached the heart or brain,
death resulted.
States Attorney Morris today gave
out statement explaining the patho-
logical feature of the case, stating
that the autopsy showed that the girl
was in delicate condition. The
prosecutor added:
There were no exterior marks of
violence Three experienced surgeons
found all organs perfectly normal"
"ln cutting into the right ventricle," "
he continued, "air escaped. The
heart was perfectly healthy. When
the surgeons removed the top of the
skull, they noticed bubbles of air. All
blood vessels of the brain showed air
circulation. There were no structur-
al changes, but on a test the brain
floated in water. There was no ten
sion of the lungs.
Later it was discovered that the
man threw away an Instrument used
in an illegal operation, while going
to the sanitarium."

Secrecy Still Surrounds Plans Of
Heroic Commander and =
Crew. .' :
Baltimore, July 27, loo a. m.-
There were intimations that the
Deutschland was preparing to
leave her slip.

Baltimore, July 26.-Carl A. Lued-
eritz, German consul here, said to-
night that the merchant submarine
Deutschland would not leave for a
week yet. When asked why the de-
parture was further delayed after
clearance papers had been taken out
the consul would make no comment.
Mr. Leuderitz also announced the
postponement of a garden party that
was to have been held at his subur-
ban home tonight. This was owing
to the inability of Ambassador Won
Bernstorff to be present, he said.
The German submarine liner
Deutschland today was cleared by her
commander, Captain Paul Koenig,
"for Bremen, or any other port, in
Germany" Any hour now the vessel
may start. down the Chesapeake bay,
prepared to make a dash for the open
sea. The guard Of Allied warships off
the capes is still maintained.
Secrecy surrounds the plans Of
Captain Koenig. After securing his
clearance papers at the customs
house he said, in reply to questions
asked for the benefit of the Eastern
Forwarding association, that 9the ex-
act time of departure would not be
made public tts.esg.g i. tsss. i.
Ready for Journey.
Agents of the subfreighter announc-
ed this afternoon that she was ready
for the return voyage to Germany.
This information was handed to the
customs house and the Office Of the
clearance house was kept open until
Captain koenig arrived tonight with
Mr.. Hintz, of the North German
Lloyd liner, Heckar After the usual
formalities, the commander of the
submarine requested that his mani
fest, which he had filed, be withheld
from publication ga reasonable time"
His request was granted, and his
cargo was described officially as con-
sisting of general merchandise.
On his way. the little captain tar
ried long enough to shake hands
with several officials.
1--WE certainly are with you," said
one of his well wishers, patting him
on the shoulder.
Captain Kaeng smiled, NODDED his
head and said, II thank you."
All day long there was activity
aboard the Deutschland. The engines
were tested again and again, and
twice the vessel was submerged un-
til her keel rested on the bottom of
her slip.
These operations seemed to be very
interesting to persons aboard the
German freighters, which have drop
ped anchor off the Deutschland's pier.

CHAPTER VII.

Through the open country Bibbs was
borne flying between brown fields and
sun-fecked groves of gray trees, to
breathe the rushing, clean air beneath n
glorious sky. Upon Bibbs' cheeks there
was a hint of actual color. but unde-
niably Its phantom. This apparition
may have been partly the result Of a
lady's bowling to him upon no more
formal Introduction than the circum-
stance of his having caught her look
ing into his window a month before.
1t seemed to Bibbs that she must have
meant to convey her forgiveness. Nor
did he lack the impression that he
would long remember her as he had
just seen her; her veil unanimously
blowing back, her face glowing in the
wind-and that look of gay friendli-
ness tossed to him like fresh rose In
carnival.
By and by, upon n rising ground, the
driver halted the car, then backed and
tackled, and sent 1t forward again with
its nose to the south and the smoke.
They passed from the farm lands, and
came, in the amber light of November
late afternoon, to the farthermost out
skirts Of the city. The sky had become
only dingy thickening of the soiled
