Tntense Heat in the Dakotas Oanses Many Serious Prairio Fires, CORN IN NORTHWEST SAFE FROM FROST, While the Heat Has Been Unbearable in Many Sections its Benefit to the Country Has Been Inestimable. Jamestows, N. D, Sapt. 19.—Tho terrible heat of the past fow diys bas scorched every stubblo field and hay range in the state until the faintest spark is sufficiont to start an almost unquenchable fire. Intense anxiety exists throughout the state at this time over the dunger to crops and lives as well. in this county alono over $1,000,000 worth of wheat lios exposed to fire, which may be ignited now from the slightest cause. From Emmons county, comes the report of disastrous fires, but mails have been delayed from Willilamsport and the exact amount of damage is not known. Williamsport was saved from destruction by @ sudden change in the winds. Near Lisbon thousands of acres of wheat have been de- stroyed. ‘I'he next fow days are regarded with positive fear of some extended disastor to life as well as property. Small fires, checked by prompt action of neighbors, have already ruined many farms in the Jim river val Reports of small fires are coming in hourly. The sun of tho last fow daays has made tho grass like tinder. Siovx Fans, S. D., Sept. 19, —From all over the state come reports of unusual heat, in some instances tho mercury exceeding 1002, Near the north state line many prairio fires aro reported, but details as to the losses are unknown. Thus far no loss of life has been reported from fires. So intenso has been the heat in some sections that work in the harvest fields during the day has peen impossible. Many persons were prostrated and farmers, taking advantaze of tho clear nights, have threshed their grain by moon- light. Unless immediate relief comes the destruction of wheat by firo will be enormous. A praivie fire ravaged the coun- try between White Lake and Plankinton yes- terday, causing the destruction of from $10,000 to $15,000. The fire was started by section men burniog a fire break. Hrnoy, S. D., Sept. 19.—The thermometor registerod ninety-thrae in the shade yester- day, making the fifth hot day this week, ranging from ninety-two to ninety-five. Parties from the country say threshing gangs experience difficulty in keeping up a full werking force, the heat being so intense that the men are unable to continue work In thesun. The hum of threshing machines are heard in every direction all hours of the night, the moon furnishing suficient light to enable the work to go on, men working in re- liefs of three hours each. Detroir, Mich.,, Sept. 19.—Not in eight years has Detroit experienced such hot weather as fell to its Jot yesterday. The inercury rose to ninety-eight degrees in the shade, causing intense suffering. City am- bulances cared for the persons who were overcome by heat and one of these cases will probably prove fatal. Work was practically suspended for three hours during the fore- noon in the neart of the city. Crere, Neb., Sept. 19.—The week past has been one of high temperature, cloudless siy aud nhot south winds, which have been very favorable for maturing the corn corp. The mean temperature has been from six to nino dogrees above the normal for this season of the year; for four consecutive days the tem- perature rose to cighty-eighth or ninaty de- grees. Tne sunshine has been very much above the normal. The rainfall has varied from none or a trace to a little over half an inch in different parts of the state, The abnormally high temperatura of the past weck has brought the corn for- ward very rapidly and has 1one much to make good the deficiencies in temperature of the earlier part of the season. The drying weatiier has hastened the ripening of some of tne latest corn so that 1t will not reacn fuil weight. Much prairie bay has been secured during the week; the ground has be- come so dry as to interfere with fall plow- jng. The bulletin of next week will be the last of the season and observers are re- quested to make as good an estimate as they can of the corn corp, comparing it with that of 1889, Des Moy la, Sept. 10.—This week's bulletin of the Iowa weather and crop ser- vice says that the daily average temperature of the week was over nine degrees above normal, making the hottest week ever re- corded for the middle of Sepiemver. In the state at large fully 75 per cent of the corn is secure and more than the usual proportion is being cut and shocked. About 75 per cent is more or less immature, needing from one to two weeks to ripen. The prospect is that the state will produce 85 per cecy of a full crop of sound corn. Rain is needed for pas- turage ana plowing. ST. Lovis, Mo. Sept. 19.—The _ secretary of the State Board of Argiculture furnishes the Associated press with the following weather crop bulletin for the week ending Saturda; September 19: Except for light showers in the river counties there was an absence of rainfall for the week. Temperature was above the normal. Sunshine excess- ive, Absence of rain, high tem- aature aud excess of sunshine has astened ripening of the corn, which is, for the most part, maturing well and now ail1s practically beyond danger of frost. Wheat seeding is progressing in the northern coun- ties, where the area will be greatly wncreased, but in the central and southern counties plowing and planting have been suspended on account of drouth. Pastures are drying up, water getting scarce and stock being re- duced in condition. Drouth s affecting late potatoes aud winter apples. May Lose Her Mind. Stovx Faiis, S.

Lively Political Oomplications Promised in the National Oapital. HOTELS ALREADY ASSIGNING QUARTERS, Much Curiosity Exhibited by Ola Legislators as to the Methods of the Approaching Congress, FourTeeNTI STREET, WasmiNgrox D, C., Sept. 19, The changes which have of late been sug- gested for the cabinet have impressed the prosident with the fact that Washington will be a pretty lively place soon, politically speaking. There is now very little doubt that three changes will take place in the cab- inet before Christmas next. Itis sure that A new secrotary of war is to bo installed, as Secretary Proctor becomes a United States senator within six weeks, It scems to bea foregone conclusion that Attornev Gieneral Miller will becomo a United States cir- cuit judge whon the ‘judicial appointments are mado about the time cougress convenes, It is nccepted in every quarter that Secretary Nople will cither succeed Attorney Goneral Miller or vacate his present position for pri- vate life or an_appointment abroad. These chauges give wide latitude for political kens od thrust upon the president any quantity of annoyance, for it is a hard matter 1o muke an important” appointment with any amount of ood timber at hand. Anticipating unusual life here the hotels revort many inquiries for quarters by poli- ticians and those who are fond of looking at a friendly political “serap” but do not tako part in it. That congress is to be a bear garden from the day it convenes till 1t adjourns, probably late next sumuer, there is o doubt. The democrats will clog up the whecls of lezislation and question every step the republicans may propose. The ground work of both the republican and demoeratic national campaigns will be laid in congress and the consultation rooms of the hotels. Booms will be created and smashed in a night. ‘The repubiicans are felicitating themselves upon the fact that the bulk of the chabges in oftic have been made. The enemies and comprications which invariably foliow the selection of a “new outfit’ upon the 1ncom- ing of all presidents uare now known. Pacification comes with time. It is now be- coming daylight sailing. It will soon not be “'shooting in’ the dark) or *‘runuing in the f0z,” 10 use the terms of the politician. The record of the republican administration is about as nearly wade as can b after the chunges wrought at the polls last year by which tho lower house of congress has been turned over to the rabble—to a motley crowd as uncertain in its inclinations and as irre- sponsiblo as would be a parliament elected at random on the Black sea. There will be no policies to formulate on the part of the administrution, The demo- crats have no issues except to oppose Lnose of the republicans. They have created noth- ing. They propose to fight the creative powers of the republicans, ‘The maneuvres of the majority in the house will be watched by the country at large with intense interest —niot because it is expected to do anything, but for the purpose of studying tho ton- dencies of a majority selected at random in a “wind storm.” It" has been many yenrs since the outlook in Washington presented such an interesting aspect as now or the fu- ture promised so many sensational develop- ments in a political way.

P~ PERISHED IN THE FLAM Dose of Mo 8ix People Burned to Death and Others Serionsly Injured Cricaco, Sept. 19.—Ono of the most disas- trous fires that bas visited the city for somo timo occurred apout 1:¥0 this morning in a tenement house at 59 and 551 Sedgwick streot. Although the blnze lasted but fifty minutes, tho loss of iife only made the tri- fling damage to property stand out more in- significantly. Six peoplo are dead and more will undoubtedty die. The basement and lower floor of the building was used by Will fam Kafitz for a bakery and 1t was in the rear of his oven that the fire originated. When discovered the flames had already gained considerable headway, The alarm was at once given, quickly followed by a second. fu the upper story of the building were five families und the scenes of confusion that fol- lowed wero terrible. After the first cloud of smoke hiad cleared away and the con fusion had iv a measure subsided the firemon wero able to work moro easily in rescuing those who were 1n the building. Men, women and children all in their night clothes, had been removed from the windows and stairs abovo. All ogross had been cut off from the rear of the house. The fire had made rapid progress up tho stairway. ‘There was nofire escapes and the single flight of stairs in the front portion of the building afforded littls oppor- tunity for escape. Ou the first floor lived William Rurin. He was awakened by tho smole and heat when the partitions of his room were smouldering. He awoko his wife and tour children and they managed to get down the stairs only slightly burned. The fire did its worst on the socond floor. W hen Oficer O'Neill broke into the rooms oceupied by the Schalk family, in_company with the firemen, a horrible sight met their eyes. Tho rooms wero filled with smokeund water stood on the floor to a_depth of ecighteen inches. The officer heard a weak voice crving for help ard as he pusLed into the main room he found the body of Cyntuia Schalk aged 17 who was just barely alivo. In this room in one heap wore found Mr. John Schalk, bis wife, two sons and one daughter. All wore dead. From appearances they had clustered together and resolved to make theie escape together. Whether thoy were suffocated or drowned is a mystery. Two or throe other people wero ~ slightly injured. Miss Cynthia Chalk aied shortly after being removed from the building. “T'he loss to proverty was trifling. AFTER MANY ¥ Reatoration of a Child Who Had Been Kidnaped to bis Parents. Bixenaxroy, N.

Ne- «us, a detective from Portiaad, Ore., came to this city yesterday with Harry Whitbeck, a 7-year-old lad who was stolen from his pa- rents in Portland when ho was 14 months ola. Harry is the son ol wealthy parents, and one day bis nurseleft him alone in his car- riage while sho went into the house on an crrand. When sho returned the baby was gone and nothing haa been heard of him until a few days ago Detective Negus found him liviuy in a hovel with a laborer, a fow miles out of Duquesne, Pa. Negus is a government detective and his services aro engaged chiefly in hunting up fraudulent pension claims. Recently he heard of the child at Richburg, Pa.,and then traced it to Duguesne, where he found the boy in & most pitable conditiou, being clotned in rags and living in the utmost squaior.

St Lovts, Mo, Sept. 19.—The Post Dis- patch tonight received a telegram from a staff correspondent with the government rain makers at £l Paso, Tex., giving the results of the bombardment of the last two hours. No rain has fullen and the almost unblemished heavens augur little of promise. ln the opening of the bombara- ment clouds camo and went, but they were moisturcless and sorved but as aa aggravation. To the south and east there lies & bauk of moisture boaring messengors and by tomorrow morning the deluge may come. AL this writing, however. itis buta mere possibility, and even the scicatists have almost abandoned hope.

MAY ALL BURY THE HATCHET, Union Pacifio and Anaconda Mine Owners Settling Their Trouble, WORK TO BE RESUMED VERY SHORTLY. uld's Interests Inclined to Withe draw from the Freight Pool of the Locality—History of the Affair, Citoaan Bureav or Tie Bre, } Crmicaao, 111, Sept. 19, Probabilities are that the Union Pacifio will soon bo carrying ore from Butte copper mines to Anaconda again. Tho disagreomont between tho rond und managers of tho big mines about tho rates, which resulted in the shutting down of tho latter some months ugo and throwing several thousaud won out of employment, are in a fair way of soutlement. Prank M. Leonard, a prominent mining on- gineor of Butte, who is at the Grand Pacitio on his way home from tho east, says that a conferenco was held in Now York city a fow days ago with this end in view. Amon those prosent were 8, H. H. Clark and T L. Kim- ball of the Union Pacific and Marcus J. B. Haggin and M. Donahue of the An conda. Haggin is president of the Anaconda company and the heaviest stockholder, Daly is genoral manager and a largo stockbolde and Donahue is trafic managor. For some time Anaconda peoplo have threatened to build aline of their own between Anaconda and Butte, and went so far as 10 have a survey made. J. B. Haggin, wio was at the Richelieu several weeks ago, aftor denying the story that tho mine had been old to an Knglish syndicate, as stated i o dispateh of several columns in the Chicago papers, said that the owners of the mine were very well satisfled with the income from it and had no dosire to sell, and added that unless tho difficulty with the Union Pacific. which caused the shutting down of the mine, was settled soon, the company pro- posed building a line of thoir own, as they could ot afford to haye the property lying idle. Lt was in pursunnce of this thoat that Manager Daly had tho survey made, Whether or not 1t was really his intention to parallel the Montana” Union, us this branch of the Union Pacific was callod after the pooling arrangements with the rthern Pacific, these appareat preps tions to do so0 evidently had the desired effect and the prosent conference was thus brought about, The Montana Union line was originally built by the Union Pacific as a branch of tho Utab & Northern and extends from Silyer Bow to Garrison with a branch extonding from Stuart to Anaconda. About five vears ago rates on ore shipped from Anaconda o Butte were reduced, but the Union Pacifio and Northern Pacific subsequently entered into a pooling arrangement by which the ro- ceipts from this lino wero to_be divided bo- tween the twolinesand thaold rates restored. The basis of the agreement w that the Union Pacific was not 10 oxtend its lines to Helena and the Northern Pacific was not to build to Butte. Whether this is true or not President Oakes of the Northern Pacific was credited with being rasponsible for the res- toration of the higher schedulo on oro rates. Even then the Northern Pacific was not sat- isfied, and, in_direct violation of the agree- ment under which the pooling arrangement was entered into, has built an extension from Three Forks to Butte. As tho Northern Pa- ciffc is not_represented in the present con- ce in New York it is thought the Union ded to withdraw from the In any event it is aimost certain that ill bo reduced ana tnat the road will s00n be hauling 3,500 to 4.000 tons of ore from President Haggin’s mines to the smelter at Anaconda.
