Others May Have Perished
in Fire Which Destroys
Part of Scenic Railway
at Park Near Montreal
Dead Are Not Identified
Sonsa's Band Plays Opera
and Ragtime Even as the
Bodies Are Taken Away

MONTREAL, Aug. 10.-Seven per-
sons were burned to death tonight in
a fire on scenic railway at Dominion
Park, an amusement resort near this
city.
The bodies of three men. three
women and boy were recovered from
the ruins shortly before midnight. 1t
is feared several more persons lost
their lives, and that the bodies will be
recovered when search is resumed to-
morrow. Il has been impossible so
Iar~to identify the dead
The cause of the fire, which not only
destroyed part OF the scenic railway,
but also the "Mystic Mill" nearby. is
started by lighted cigarette or match.
The flames, famed by westerly wind,
spread quickly, and only "a river, on
the banks of which the amusement
park is located, checked the fire from
spreading to the rest of the resort
across the stream.
Merrymakers Fall Into Flames
The flames broke out in the MILL
When the tiremen arrived, the mill was
blazing pyrc. and few minutes later
'H"t pstiN vi lHe railway constructed
over the mill fell with crash into
the roaring furnace According to wit
nesses, q car filed with merrymakers
took a fatal leap into the flames
From the mill could be heard means
and cries for help, but the fremen
found it possible to rescue only few
OF the men, women and children trap
ped in the blazing structure They did
succeed, however, in cutting their way
through the walls and dragging forth
a few persons almost smothered by the
smoke.
Two Of the bodies were found
huddlod together in the ruins. The

others lay in different parts of the
burned building, so badly charred that
it is believed identification can be cs
tablished in only one or two cases, and
these by watch charms and rings worn
by the victims
Sousa's Band Played Ragtimc
When reports of the fire reached
the city thousands of persons hastened
to the park, seven miles away, in
every manner of conveyance.
To allay the fears Of thousands in
the park. Sousa's band, which is play
ing there this week, continued its con-
cert, and while shouts of the iiremen

Manager Gleason again started

during the series by the Reds. and
although he was relieved by James
before the end of the first inning,
the Patmoran's managed to gather
four runs off him, which lead the
Sox were unable to overcome and
which led up to the final score of ten
to three in the final game of the
worlds series played at Chicago to-
day.
The winning of today's game gave
the pennant to Cinncinati and the
jubilance displayed by the Chicago
men yesterday, after snatching a
chance game from what seemed GER
tain defeat, has all disappeared.
Joe Jackson, the Chicago heavy
sticker. afforded the only ray of sun
shine in today's game for the men
from the Windy City, when he slam

third inning.

ELKO CATTLE MEN
HAVING HARD TIME

For several weeks past there has
been a steady stream of cattle going
out from Elko county. mainly to the
western part of the state and Califor-
mia, where they are being unloaded
and fattened for the. market at the
feeding pens. From the reports OBJ
tainable, the shipments are fully
twenty per cent in excess of last
year, this being due to the fact that
the shortage of the hay crop makes
il imperative that the stockmen sell
their herds down to the point where
the available supply of hay will carry
the cattle through the winter. Every
ton of hay throughout the country
has been contracted for and already
the dry condition of the range has
forced many of the cattle to be put
inside the fences until a later date.
There is much complaint among the
stockmen over their inability to get
cars, and in many instances cattle
have been brought in from long dis
tances, had to be held in Elko waiting
for cars. The railroads claim that
there is a shortage and that they are
doing the best they can under the
circumstances.-[Elko Free Press.

here from San Francisco, and making
the necessary repairs would preclude
any possibility of Lieutenant Rice
winning the mammoth race, so he re-
luctantly decided to either ship the
machine back to San Francisco by
train or wait until repairs are made
and fly back.
The airman is mighty dissappoint-
ed young man because of being
forced out of the race. Had the ac-
cident occurred at any of the regu-
larly designated stopping places he
would have been allowed forty-cight
hours for repairs. He had been hav-
ing engine trouble ever since leaving
San Francisco. His first forced land
ing was between San Francisco and
Sacramento. He explained the trouble
was that the engine kept cutting
out" 1t would stop few seconds
and start again. At one time, he said.
it stopped long enough to allow the
ship to fall several hundred feet. He
said that the continual stopping and
starting of the motor between here
and Reno had"pounded" him severely.
Even with the damaged airplane and
the trouble he has had SO far on the
trip he seemed very downcast because
he had to give up.
Had the landing field only been
marked, he said, he could have made
the landing safely. "The ground is
too soft, is what caused the machine
to overturn," he said. 1t was the first
ship he had ever damaged.

finally landed on the first landing
field cleared, on Dedman's ranch, a
mile south of the Southern Pacific
railroad. When automobiles loaded
with people arrived at the landing
field Immediately afterward, it was
found that the plane, No. SO, had COM

G. E. Rice was making the landing
and he was hanging from the cock
pit by the safety belt, head toward
the ground. Fortunately he was un-
injured.
Lieutenant Rice was alone in the

HUGE Loss DUE To
STATE BAD ROADS

S. NJ. Williams, of the federal high
way commission, addressed a bunch
of enthusiastic good roads boosters
last evening at the Reno Commercial
club, says the Reno Journal.
Those specially invited to the meet
ing were members of the Reno Com
mercial club and the Nevada High
way association.
The speakers talk was intended to
arouse enthusiasm and it accom-
plished the result. He pointed out
that Nevada is losing thousands of
dollars from the fact that it's roads
are not quite what they should be and
said that money expended in that di-
rection would quickly return four-fold
to tax payers and citizens generally.
OF particular interest is the Lin
coin Highway from Auburn, Califor-
mia, on through Nevada and to the
point of exit on tht eastern end of the
state. This road is in fair shape for
dirt road. but tourists and others
coming from California at once get
a bad taste when they leave the pave
ment and it causes unfavorable COM
ment when they reach their eastern
destination.

SIDEWALK WORK To
COMMENCE MONDAY

Sidewalks are to be put in across
the Humboldt river bridge immediate
ly and a side walk and street cross
ings are to be put in on the north
side of East Fourth Street from
Bridge street to the high school, it was
decided at recessed meeting of the
city council. held last night Bids for
the work were submitted by contrac-
tors, but the city dads decided they
could use the street workmen and
save money on the bridge job. They
employed Peraldo Brothers to take
charge of the work and next Monday
morning laying of cement sidewalks
on both sides of the bridge will COM
mence.
The sidewalk and street crossings
leading to the high school will prob
ably be laid Immediately after Mon
day, the 18th day of this month, at s
o'clock pm. of that day being the time
set for property owners to appear be-
fore the council and object to the pro-
posed Improvement, as announced in
a notice appearing on page two of this
issue. Fifty-one per cent of the prop
erty owners affected must enter for
NAL objection or the work will be or
dered done. 1t is not thought probable
there will be any objections. So if
fifty-one per cent of the owners do not
object the pupils attending high
school will have cement walk to
their study rooms this winter.
That old bugaboo of how shall
chimneys be constructed was again
brought up, contractors wanting to
know just what is necessary to COM
ply with the law when building CHM
neys. 1t was finally decided to amend
that portion of the fire ordinance to
permit one-brick chimneys for ordi-
nary residence stoves and two-brick
chimneys for furnaces. In both cases,
however, the chimney must be built
from the ground.
]. F. Asst, proprietor of the Winnie
mucca Market, appeared before the
council and spoke on equalization of
city licenses and also concerning
peddlers of meats in this city. His
talk was much in line with reso-
luton passed by the grand jury, re-
ported in another column. He said al
so that frequently the meat peddled
here was unfit for food. his descrip-
ton of animals sold thus being equal
