was of incendiary origin, started at
10:30 o’doc» Bunday evening, and did
not exhaust itself an ti l it , o ’clook next
morning. Three solid blocks of busi­
ness bouses were burned.
Two small
residences ware also burned, and the
principal residence d istrict had a nar­
row escape.
The fire was discovered when in
incipient state, but It spread rapidly.
The old flam e structures, thoroughly
dry and seaaoned, proved good fuel, and
the blase waa soon beyond control.
Among the first r f the business houses
to go was D r. P. H . Fitzgerald’s drug
store, In which was located the .tele­
phone exchange. A few minotes later
tha local teiagraph service was destroyed
by the melting of the wires, sad when
tha seriousness of the conflagration waa
disclosed the people found themselves
cut off from a ll communication w ith
neighboring towns, and were practical

An at­
tem pt to communicate w ith the Salem
fire department and procure aid in
fighting tha fire failed.
For protection from fire the city a
few years ago b o ilt a w ater tower at
cost of »1,600, sad equipped it w ith a
tank of 12,000 gallons capacity.
The
tower took fire a t the beginning of the
fire, and was of no assistance to the fire
fighters. An antiquated band pump
and several street cisterns were all
th at remained w ith whfoh to battle
w ith the flames. The cisterns finally
gave o t , and a large bucket brigade
being organized, water was carried from
wells about the town.
Heroically did
the volunteers battle against heavy
odds.

Victoria,- B. 0 . , Oct. » .» A d v ic e s
have been received from China of tiie
increase of Boxerism, both in Szechuan
and C h ili.
In Szechuan the Boxers,
some 10,000 strong, attacked Chengtu,
the provincia! capital, and there were
some sanguinary fights in the sheets.
Tha Boxers were held in check by the
im perial farces, and a report being
proclaimed that Yeinforoements were
coming for the garriaon, the Boxers
fled from Chengtu and encamped at
Sblppantan, where earthworks had
been thrown up.
The Boxers of Szechuan are led by a
woman, Liao Kuan Y in , who ia alleged
to be one of the three aistqry.who were
arrested a t Tientsin daring the rebel­
lion of 1900, i t being aaid th at they
were " th a Baxar goddeaaea.”
Letters
from Prince Tuan, Yung La and other
Boxer leaden were found in their
house. Thia woman, who ia described
by Chineas papers as being very hand­
some, had attracted 10,000 Boxers to
her standard. The Chung K ing corre­
spondent of the North China New» says:
“ She la*, the most powerful rebel
chief in Szechuan.’ ’
-■ . . . . . .
.
I t ia estimated th a t 1,500 native
Christiana have been ^killed in this
¡irovince. In C h ili Boxers are secretly
d rillin g every morning before dzylig h t,
even in the vicinity of the capital.
ARMY EXPENSES LOWER.
Much Less Thaa Last Year-Recommend­
ations ol Paymaster.
Washington, Oct. 8.— Acqprding to
the annual report of the paymaster
general, arm y expenses decreased dur­
ing the paat year »918,819, as compared
w ith the preceding year, partly owing
to the decrease in the pay ol the army
and partly to a reduction of claims for
extra pay for volunteers.
The total
expenses made by Paymgg(ej General
Bates were »62,623,479.
The pay­
master general is an earnest advocate
of the creation of a re-enliatm ent sys­
tem for government clerks base 1 upon
the deduction of a small sum monthly
from the salary of each clerk.
The paymaster general says good re­
sults are observable from Secretary
Koot’s'plan of detailing line officers
for staff duty. The only improvement
be could suggest would be to perm it
the detail of first lieutenants instead of
captains aa the lowest grade in the pay
rorps, giving the lieutenants, however,
captain’a pay w hile doing inch work.
A financial statement setting out in
great detail the expenditures of the
pavmaster general’s office makes i t ap­
pear th at the total approximate cost of
the war with Spain on scuonnt of pay
and extra pay to volunteers and regulars
and mileage to officers was »78,668,640.
