OFFICIALS IN CONFERENCE All Available Troops Ordered to Pro- .ceed to Scene of Devastation, but This Includes Only Five Companies. Many Employes of the Forest Serv- ice Among Those Who Perished In the Flames. ‘Washington, Aug. 23.—With forests, ranches and towns on fire in the Northwest appeals for help from the federal government, not to protect the forests, but to save human life, are pouring into Washington. As a result every means at the disposal of the offi- clals was bent toward rendering aid and the precarious situation was laid before President Taft by telegraph, with a view to necessary executive action. The situation was taken up at a conference at the war department be- tween Associate Forester Potter of the forestry department, Major General Leonard Wood, chief of staff of the army, who returned from an inspec- tion at West Point to superintend the relief from the army standpoint, and Adjutant General Ainsworth. The im- medfate result of the conference was the ordering into service of the last five companies available in the stricken reglons for fire fighting duty and of carrying pack trains carrying medical supplies and army surgeons to the immediate relief of the suffer- ers. Mr. Potter laid before the army offi- cials his latest information from the fire regions. His advices were that high winds prevailed, which resulted in many dangerous fires. At Wallace, Ida., one-quarter of the area of the town had been burned; Newport, Wash.,, was said to be threatened and Libby and Troy, Mont., in,grave dan- ger and each town asking for 250 troops. s Many Fire Fighters Killed. Twenty-five fire fighters had been killed, according to the forestry re- port, and Mr. Potter was inclined to believe that these had all been in the employ of the forest service. His reports mentioned only the loss of two men at Wallace. Fires were reported to be racing toward Mullan and Burke, Ida., not far from Wallace, and the whole. west end of Lolo, an- other Idaho town, was said to be blaz- ing. All of the inhabitants in the St. Regls valley were reported to have been taken out on special trains. Two hundred men of the forest ran- gers crew were reported to be: in grave danger in the Idaho side of the east fork of the St. Joe river, in the Bitter Root mountains. Fires on or near the Bitter Root, Missoula and Cabinet forests were beyond control. The war department already has or- dered thirty-five companies into the fields. If other federal troops are to be ordered to the threatened regions they must come from distant forts and emergency funds must be provided for their transportation. Government surveyors have tele- graphed that forest fires are raging twenty-one miles south of Republic, Wash., on the Colville Indian reserva- tion. A telegram was received at the Indian office from Superintendent Webster at Spokane, saying that for- est guards are engaged in combatting fires elsewhere, but that Forest Super- visor Reid had reported that soldiers now at Republic are available for work there. Of Incendiary Origin. Positlve evidence that many of the forest fires in Oregon are of incen- diary origin has been discovered by government agents, according to a telegram received at the office, which says there is no doubt that the fires in the Crater natiounal forest and at Medford resulted from incendiarism and that new fires are being set. An effort is being made to catch the cul- prits. Fires in the Crater national forest in Southern Oregon and at Medford, Ore., are proving more serious every hour. There are 300 men there now under the forest service. The war de- partment already has 100 soldiers de- tailed in this district and has ordered 250 more from American Lake. As- sistant District. Forester Buck has gone from Portland to take personal charge of the situation. He says the troops will be used to protect life and property and it will be hard to extin- guish the fires without the aid of rain. He confirms the report that every effort will be made to keep the fires on the eastern slope.’ Fright Causes Woman’s Death. Sioux Falls, S. D., Aug. 23.—Fright, resulting from the approach of a storm, caused the death of Mrs. Synve Johnson, aged fifty-seven, a pioneer resident of Kingsbury county, from heart failure. She was out in the yard when she noticed the storm coming up and started hurriedly for the house. Just as she reached the door she fell to the ground in what appeared to be a faint. Members of the household carried her inside, where she ap- peared to revive temporarily, but a moment later she died. CIVIL WAR RAGES IN PERSIA Kurds Avenging Murder of Chieftain by Peasants. " Odessa, Aug. 23.—Civil war betwees the Kurds and peasants has broken out in the Urumiah district of Persia, according to dispatches from there. The Kurds, in revenge for the mur- der by the peasants of Miza Kervall, a Kurdish chieftain, are ravaging the villages of the district and have killed hundreds of the peasants after sub- Jecting them to the most extreme tor- ture, > S CROSSING OF THIRD AND BELTRAMI T0 BE PAVED [Continued from First Pagé] drug store did not dump waste water on Fourth street. City Prisoners Must Work. A bill of $79 from Sheriff Hazen for the boarding of prisoners during the past month raised the question of how the prisoners were working out their sentences. Chief Harring- ton said that they were all sentenced to hard labor but that they were never taken out of jail. The street commission was ordered to use the men and they will be put to work under guard grubbing the stumps out of the streets and repairing the parks and sidewalks. Twenty-two Cent Tax Paid. City Clerk Maloy told ‘the council each price head Skirts, Etc. The fewer there are of a kind the more radical the reductions. that he had received a money order from a young lady in the east en- closing twenty-two cents for the tax on a lot in Wilton. Mr. Maloy said she wrote as though she imagined the lot was a valuable one, The police were ordered to remove the benches in front of the saloons on Third street and see that no loaf- ine was allowed. The petition of former mayor Carter to have the judgement against him ,for illegal salary drawn by him while mayor set aside was granted and will be satisified by the payment of one dollar. Contractor Johnson was allowed to close the alley off Beltrami ave- nue between Third and Fourth streets while he is constructing the basement of the new building next to Brown’s resturant. ' Mr. Johnson re- commended that a building ordin- ance be drawn up so that an accurate count can be kept of all new build- ing. He advised that a permit be necessary for the erection' of any building costing over $300. Report on Armory Accepted. Mayor Parker read the report on the ‘Armory submitted by Captain Otto.
