The large one ‘with the cubs ranstoward her. The wom- an screamed as she fled to the nearest houses, and the bear, after following her a short distance, turned and entered some bushes. Later a boy named Dugan was chased by the female bear, which he disturbed while she was feeding off a dead sheep. The bear evidently had been hungry and had come from the woods in search of food. Several men went out this after- noon armed with rifles afd a supply of cartridges sufficient to kill a doZen bears, but so %ar no slaughter has taken place. | ‘ RN WE S PACIFIC TIME Schedule Takes Effect.

RAILS WILL BE LAID T0 BULLY HILL MINES Surveyors Will at Once Lay Out Route for an Elec- - tric Line. e A Special Dispatch to The Call. REDDING, May 3.—A party of capital- ists representing the Fair and Crocker es- tates and others in close touch with the Southern Pacific Company, which is said to favor the enterprise, has procured rights of way for the construction of an electric raflroad from the Sacramento River to the Bully Hill mines, a distance of twelve miles, and will have its survey- ing crew upon the ground within a few days. The work will be prosecuted with all the rapidity possible, and within ninety days contracts will be let for the con- struction of the road. It is to be a stand- ard gauge road, to connect with -the Southern Pacific at or near Kennett and have its terminus at the smelters of Cap- tain de la Mar, at Bully Hill. A company has been organized and all of the stock subscribed. There will be no stock placed upon the market, as the roac is projected solely as an investment for gflvs(e capital. The freight contracts that ave been offered In the event that the road be built are sufficlent to warrant the outlay and assure interest upon the capi- tal stock. The new company has closed a contract with the Shasta Electric Light and Power Company for electric power, which is to be supplied not later than November 1, Gasoline Stove Explodes.

CITY OF JACKSONVILLE IS IN RUINS AND 15,000 PERSONS HOMELESS Six Lives Are Re From Ten to Fifteen Is the Estimate Many Fine Buil JACKSONVILLE, Fla., May 4, 1 a. m.— | The most disastrous fire in the history of noon in a small factory, started by a de- fective wire, according to the best belief, | and burned for nearly ten hours. In that time a property loss estimated at from | $10,000,000 to $15,000,000 was caused. Ac- cording to the city map, 130 blocks were | burned, many of them in the heart of the business and residerce sections. The es- | timate of houses to the block is ’ten, | hence 1300 of them went up in smoke. Many of the finest public and private | buildings were destroyed, including ho- | tels, theaters, churches and residences. The casualties cannot be accurately es- timated to-night. That there were sev eral seems to be well authenticated. Among them was that of the Fire Chief, who sustained a bad fall. In all six lives | are reported to have been lost. | The Mayor ordered all saloons closed and has impressed help to clear the wreckage. The Mayor, at a late hour, stated that he estimated the loss at §15,- 000,000 and that 10,000 to 15,000 people were | homeless. . W. W. Cleveland, in whose premises the fire originated and who was one of the heaviest losers, dropped dead from excite- ment. - | A stalwart negro bringing a trunk on his head from a burning building went crazy from the horror of the situation. He ran around a circle with the trunk on his_head until he sank exhausted and died. At night the military was ordered out to guard the household goods piled high | in vacant lots. | Along the ‘entire length of Beaver | street, from Davis to the creek on Liber- ty_street, all buildings were destroved. | For fourteen blocks Ashley and Church streets have both been completely blotted | out. When the fire reached Bridge street | in its eastward course, it enveloped in flames an area three blocks wide, taking in_Duval,» Monroe and the north’side of Adams street, burning that entire section of the city and running fourteen biocks | | to_the Duval-street bridge. | | The fire covered, as far as is definitely | known, a distance of two and a half miles | { by half a mile wide. When the fire| reached Julia street it was a .roaring con- | flagration and there was no prospect of | it being put under control. The local mili- | tary companies were called out to keep back the crowds and the Fire Department | began to use dynamite to blow up houses | a block from the fire, hoping thus to pre vent it from spreading. So flerce was | the blaze, however, and so strong had | become_the wind that millions of sparks and fiying, burning shingles spread over | | five or six blocks, setting the roofs of the houses on fire in advance of the depart- ment. i Collapses Like an Eggshell. Soon Senator Taliaferc's residence, then the adjoining houses on that block, were ablaze, and in spite of all efforts to save | the Windsor and the St. James hotels | both hostelries were quickly enveloped in | | | flames. For quite an hour the guests in the Windsor had been busy packing their trunks and many of them had gone away loaded with trunks and grips, some, un- fortunately, to the United States Hotel, but most of them to Riverside. | Leaping across the street from the Windsor the flames attacked the Seills | House and then the Methodist parsonage and in a few moments the Trinity Meth- odist Church was a mass of flames. The | opera-house block followed and the Rich- | ards and Livingstone boarding-houses. A | desperate effort was made to save the| Baldwin mansion, which was recently | purchased by the Elks for $18,000. No | earthly power could save this building and | that_entire block ana the one west was | quickly a mass of flames. Once the fire got started on Main street the closely adjoining buildings went, one | after another. Pairt shops with barrels of ofl were plentiful in this district and | as they caught fire, cne after the other, | the blaze, rising hundreds of feet high, | quickly set the buildings across the street on fire. When the Hubbard hardware store began to burn the people scattered. | Hundreds of pounds of powder and a great deal of dynamite were stored in this building. In ten minutes there was a roar | and the building collapsed like an egg shell. The dynamite and powder had e: ploded. Here again there was much dan. ger for the firemen. Cartridges began to explode and bullets began to fly around and the effort to fight the flames at this | point had for a time to be abandoned This was only the start of the most in- tense part of the fire. City Buildings Burned. The new Furchgott building was soon abioe"Shd then quickly the Gardiner | building was also a mass of flames. Down | the street the fire spread with great ra- pidity and the entire section of Bay street | from Market to Main and extending for | five blocks was burning all at once. The city buildings went, the Fire De- partment bullding, the armory, the Coun- Ty Courthouse; the Clerk’s office, contain- ing the county records; the Criminal Court house, the County Jail and the graded schools and the Catholic church and orphanage, St. John's Fpiscopal Church and the convent. All this destric- tion was wrought in less than four hours. Six liveg are reported lost in the confla- gration. The Mayor has called a meeting of the City Council for to-morrow to con- | sider ways and means of relieving the | sufferers. Desolation in a Large Section. At 1 a. m. the situation is one approach- ing desolation In a large section of che city. The burned district reaches from Burbridge street on the north to the St. Johns River on the south, a distance of not quite two miles. The width of the desolated area is thirteen blocks. Within this space practically everything is black- ened ruins. On Bay street, the principal mart of trade, going west, the Western Union Telegraph Company’s building is the first building standing. Everything east of Laura and Bay is gone. |, At 10:15 o’clock the fire was under con- trol, having practically burned itself out. | The suburban settlements, with the excep- tion of La ViNa, are intact. La Villa was badly hurt. The extent of the damage cannot be told until to-morrow. Thou- sands of persons are on the streets to- night homeless, with practically all their worldly possessions upon their backs. The depots of the railroads, situated in the southeastern section, have been turned into temporary lodging houses and hos- pitals. Luckily, the weather is fine, so that there will be no suffering on that score. Meeti of the City Council, the com- mercla.lngzdles and_the charitable institu- tions will be called Saturday morning to devise ways and means for meeting the situation. It is not known yet if an ap- Deal for help will be issued, though it is iikely that the exigencies of the occaslon will demand such action. It is hoped that an appeal can be avoided. Mayor Bowden at 1 o'clock this morn- x;og says the property loss will exceed $15,- 000. Ten to fifteen thousand people are homeless. Estimate of the Losses. A partial estimate of the losses, as curen up to 8:30 o'clock last night, is as follows: Cleveland Manufacturin; Cormg:ny, $25.- 000; Comm 1 fi“m: rst Na- tional Bank, $15,000; Hvubbard's block. $50,000; Indust%nl.!n ‘;l:cvl x;.n‘d ‘Trust Com- ny, $5000; r Hotel and annex, | $35,000; St. James Hotel,. $0,000; Hotel $15,000; Mohawk block, $50,000: Placid, ‘l Gardner.building, $200,000; Furchgott build- this city began yesterday shortly after €7 B | fect! ported to Have Been Lost in the Fierce Flames That Swept the Heart of the Principal Town of Florida Millions of Dollars of Loss of Property. dings Are in Ashes Seminole Club, $15,000: Filks ;_opera-house, $10,00; Harki- $25,000; Palmetto biock, $25,000; Drew, $15,000: Hotel Richelieu, 3 Gilkes building, $5,000; Nederman _biock, ~$30,000; United States Hotel, $25,000; Albemarle House, $5000; Christie, Grover & Co. 000; McMurray livery stable York Steam Laundry, _$I8.000; Knight & Co.. $20,000; 8.

SAN DIEGO, May 3.—In the Superior Court to-day Andrew and Natividad Maxcy, sons of Asher E. Maxey, filed a petition to contest the latter's will. The elder Maxcy died in Los Angeles not long ago, and left a considerable estate. The two sons reside here and a small part of the estate is here. The sons ask that the probate of the will be revoked and that they be allowed to contest it. In their petition they allege that when their father made the will he was unduly in- fluenced by their sister, Mrs. F. Jones of Los Angeles. Riverside Wins at Polo.
