No rain is fall- ing anywhere in the burning areas, according to reports today and only the absence of strong winds is preventing a dozen holo- causts. The fighters are sticking to the lines around a score of fires, accord. ing to supervisors’ reports today, and the I, W. W. strike on the lines has failed to materialize, Some I. W. W. have gone out in the lumber camps, however. The Pack River fire, north of Sand Point, is steadily gaining in green timber, despite all the efforts of sev- eral hundred men to stop it. This blaze covers more than 45 square miles, but a great portion of it is in burned-over land. New Fire Starts A new fire broke out in the Sand Point district near Grouse creek. A crew is fighting this. No labor trouble is reported on the lines around Sand Point, altho some I. W. W. have quit in the lumber camps. An uncontrolled blaze has leaped over the crest of Cook's mountain, three miles west of Newport, Wash., but the town is surrounded by fairly open country and is not in great danger. ‘The old blaze nearer town is now undef control. The half-way fire on the Priest |Lake road is under control today, but no news from the Round Top fire on top of the divide has been received. The mountain is wreath- ed in a dense pall of smoke. Crews are successfully fighting the Jordan creek and Steamboat fires in the Coeur d'Alene district, and conditions were reported as “fairly good.” The Bear creek fire, near Kel- logg, is still burning fiercely, eat- ing into white and yellow pine. About 150 men are trying to stop it It covers about 600 acres. A calm night helped check the spread of the flame: HEARTS OF THE SEATTLE TWO TOTS KILLED CHICAGO, July 22.—(United Press.)—Nine employes of the Miinois Trust & Savings Bank were dead today, victims of the flying terror, Two hundred clerks, bending over their ledgers yesterday, in the daily rush to close their books, thought of nothing but their prosaic daily labors, There was a subdued hum of high pres sure work A shadow floated across the big skylight, two floors above, Then a crash, a blinding lght and a detonation. A shapeless mass hurtled thru the glass and fell flatly to the marble floor. It was a man’s body, Heavy ma chinery followed and blinding white flames began to lick the marble pillars and the twisted steel beams of the monster which had turned a quiet count ing room into a burning inferno. Women Jump to Street It was a long jump to the street, but women took it Some of the 20,000 spectators attempted to catch the jumpers, but succeeded only in breaking their falls, Strangely, only a few were injured in those leaps. Inside a few remained, too terror-stricken to move or slow to realize the danger, Some dived to the big vault and swung its door as far shut as they eafe- ly could, Men slid under their desks to escape the spraying liquic fire. The flames caught them and drove them out thru other rivers of fire. Within a moment white mar ble pillars were blackened, mar- ble floors weys jammed and there were blood prints where seared bodies rubbed walls and doorways. Those who died in the bank were pinned by the heavy motors or framework of the dirigfble. Firemen, called when the dirigy ible first burst into flame, rushed into the building at once to drag those who had fallen on the edge of the blaze. Some of the rescued were so browned or blackened by the fire that they could not be recognized. Bank Is a Furnace It was a matter of minutes from the time the shadow floated across the light until the quiet bank building had been turned into a furnace, and men and women had perished. Chemicals quieted the flames shortly, and the bodies under the wreckage ‘were taken out. ‘The girls were partially identi- fied. Their hata were those re maining in the cloakroom, un- claimed, A. W. Hiltabidel and F. I. Cooper, tellers, thought first of the securities clustering their desks. While blackened and blazing forms rushed past them, they fully collected their papers, made them safe and then climbed thru windows to the street. One girl leaped at a window, geven feet above the floor, Her fingers caught, slipped and she fell back into the path of liquid fire. “I don't know just what hap- Ba THE BON MARCHE RGAIN BASEMENT Here’s the Secret of Our Low Prices The bargains you get in the Bargain Basement are not the result of skimped materials, or of poorer qualities—prices are lower because ‘ou have no deliveries to pay for, because we do not alter garments, use there are no C.

The bill recommending ratifica- tion w's passed last night by the house of commons on its third reading by a vote of 163 to 4, An attempt to defeat the treaty on the basis of the Irish question, in-| jected by Joseph Devlin, Nationalist, from Belfast, was voted down by the house. Devlin proposed the treaty be rejected because of Premier Lloyd George's Irish policy. Replying to Deviin's demand for a plebiscite in Ireland, the premier de elared he had despaired of any set tlement of the Irish question until the Irish people agreed among them selves. He said the government had tried already to apply the principle of self-determination by means of the Irish convention, but that the Nation alists were divided. The premier de- clared that “Ulster, moreover, did not want self-determination.” Lloyd George pointed out that Ire land was not one nation in race, re ligion, temperament pr anything con. stituting the essentials of a nation. Sir Donald MacLean, opening the treaty debate, urged the trial of the ex-kaiser in a neutral country. “What right have we to assume that any neutral country desires to be the scene of such a trial?” the premier asked. ‘The allies had confidence, he said, that whoever was put on trial in Great Britain “would receive a trial equal to the highest traditions of the British nation.” The bill for the ratification of the Anglo-French treaty, which also way up for consideration, was read the third time without objection. JAPAN EDITOR PANS AMERICA Paper Denounces the U. S. Policy Toward Mexico SAN FRANCISCO, July 22.—(By United Press.)—“America’s attitude toward Mexico is to be in every re- spect denounced and America is in: stigating antiJapanese agitations in various places. This attitude of America makes her a second Ger many,” declares the Yorozu Choho, an independent Japarese newspaper received today from Tokio. “This fact, together with the con- centration of a large fleet in the Pa- cific, deserves profound consideration by the Japanese,” the article con tinues., “Senator Ph has made a down right anti-Japanese declaration in congress. He denounced the Japan. ese as the Germans of the Orient. Declaring that it could not be helped if Japan's feelings should be wound ed in order to insure America's inter: ests, he urged absolute prohibition of | Japanese immigration, “This is only Mr. Phelan's opinion, but it is difficult to understand why it is intended to injure Japan's feel ings by such a statement, while Japan is faithfully observing the gen tlemen’s agreement.
