Salem, Wis.,, where they spent the
winter at the home of their daugh-

Mr.. Pettingill says that the reports

throughout Southern Wisconsin,.
everything was covered with heavy

FIVE VESSELS OVERDUE

New YORK, Dec. 26.A- Battered and
Scared by heavy weather. fourteen
ships -plowed slowly into quaran-
tire from early morning until late
afternoon today, the shippers of
them all reporting a vicious never
ending battle with a series Of lash
ing hurricanes which seemed to
shake the Atlantic to the bottom.
One ship the gigantic new liner
she was steadily losing her fight
with the storm. Another liner re-
ported to her owners that she would
be two days late. A third flashed in
with a report that she couldn't reach
New York until tomorrow, although
she has apparently gone safely
through most of the storm.
The center ofthc storms which have
been ruling the waves for the last
three weeks, appeared to be about
1000 miles off the European coast.
Shippers of the liners said they crash
ed int othcm at this port and fought
steadily through terrific gales until
within 500 miles of the United States.
All Are Battered
All of the ships which came into
quarantine today were frcightcrs.
Some of the mhad parts of the
bridges gone. Small boats on their
decks were crushed and torn. In
one or two instances &hatches were
pounded in, and all Of them reported
their crews had been in oil skins
almost steadily for from five to
fourteen days.
Even with fourteen ships report
ing in, quarantine did not have as
many as were expected. Five ships,
including La Savoic, were overdue,
La Savoic reported she would be
in Thursday but the owners heard
nothing from the Lord Byron, the
Eastern City and the York Castle,
all of which were expected at their
docks today. The President Mon

4 DISASTROUS FIRE

Last Sunday night at 1920 o'clock
the fire alarm was sent in as it was
discovered the large brick stables of
Thomas Live Stock Co., burning
For four hours four streams Of water
were poured into the mass of flames
1t was one of the most disastrous fires
that Manning has experienced in
years. At6one time looked as if The
Western Union, the Bank Of Mann
ing, The Manning Times, Postoliicc,
and Mr.. Tom Nimmcr's residence
would fall victims to the fire, but
by hard work the damage was confin-
cd to the Thomas building. In the
building were about siXty-five to
seventy horses and mules, several
cows and bunch of hogs. Besides
several car loads Of new wagons, bug
gies, automobiles, farm machinery
and ton upon ton Of hay, corn, peas,
etc.
The squeals from the burning hogs,
the bellows of the COWS and the means
and groans of dying horses were
heart-rendering, but it was impossible
to save them. Major the big black
horse who was the first horse the
town bought for the fire wagon, and
who for years and years performed
the duties as a fire horse, was burned
to death. In fact, both of the town
horses were lost in the fire. We
haven't rs yet been able to ascertain
from Mr.. Thomas how many of his
horses and mules were bur; ed, but it
is supposed there were about twenty
flee, besides the cows and hogs.
The Manning Drug Store, which
was in this building was destroyed.
There was $4,000 insurance on the
contents. Mr.. Thomas had Sd 1000 on
all of his things including the build
ing. Thomas loss is something like
$4,000 net.
