SPOKANE, Wash, Aug. 74.-The
heroism of f1remen and volunteers
who dared death to move bed-rid-
den patients of a hospital from the
path of roaring fire was rewarded
today with the knowledge that not
a single life was lost in the $1,000
600 fire which laid waste a ten-acro
tract of mills, Office buildings and n
hospital in eastern Spokane Friday
night.
Six flremen were injured. one
seriously, as they fought to save
those trapped in mills by the sudden
fire which was whipped over six
blocks by forty-mile gale. A To-
year-old woman was knocked un-
conscious in the evacuation of tene-
ment buildings in the path of the
flames.
For five hours the flames dashed
through the yards of a lumber COM
pany and the yards of the Great
Northern railroad, spreading in all
directions to threaten the entire city
The Paine sanitarium was direct
~ in the path of the flames. The
suddenneSs with which the blaze
swept down over the building
trapped many of the patients.
Firemen and volunteers appeared
to carry out aged women and direct
attendants in moving the patients
from the hospital cots.
Several patients were removed just
before the flames enveloped the
the building. The sanitarium was

THREAT MADE
TO SIDETRACK
TARIFF BILL
Republicans Unwilling to
Let Delay in Congress
Cause Defeat.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 24.-The
threat of Republican leaders to
sidetrack their new tariff bill unless
congress passes it by Jan. /, has
aroused some apprehension and
speculation here in congressional
ranks concerning the ultimate fate
of the measure around which a close,
bitter contest Is now brewing.
Democrats saw in the threat a
possibility that Republicans might
hold off action on the politically
dangerous issue until after the 1880
congressional election.
Farm bloc Republicans appeared
to feel there was no danger of the
bill being delayed and they inter-
preted the warning as a hint to them
that the agricultural section of the
bill, which they desire alone, would
fail to pass unless they were in
clined to cut short the impending
senate debate.
James Watson, floor leader, said
today there was no disposition on
the part of Republicans to abandon
their bill, but on the other hand
there was no intention of keeping it
before congress an indefinite length
Of time to the exclusion of other
business.
IF the bill is not signed by the
President and made a law by Jan.
L. said Watson, I'VE are not going
to let the Democrats jockey 1t all
through the regular session of con-
gress. If it thus should be de-
feated by delay, the Democrats will
be to blame"

italy and Japan will be invited to
discuss naval reduction with the
United States and Great Britain
as soon as principles upon which
purely Anglo-American difficulties

The British government probably

Reports from here published
abroad that Italy and France would
be excluded wholly or partly from

accepting a conference invitation is
not denied here.
But as signatories of the Wash

France and Italy entitled to partici-

invitations will be extended.
No doubt exists regarding the

naval reduction is acknowledged
here.
