States.
IT WAS A BAD SEPTEMBER
Forests Burned Through
Carelessness.
600,000 "ACRES DEVASTATED
Oregon's Loss Was Mccli Less Than
That of AVasliinston Some of
the Timber May Be Saved
."by Earlj- Saw Ins.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. "Wash
ington, Nov. 20. The Bureau of Forestry,
after careful examination by a field agent,
estimates that September forest fires In
Oregon and Washington caused a total
loss of $12,767,100. of which 53.910,000 fell in
Oregon. This Includes the value of tim
ber, farm property and sawmills and their
products which were destroyed. Owing to
Its nearness to market, however, much of
the burned timber in Oregon will be. saved,
reducing the total loss as above set forth.
It was found that SG Oregon families were
rendered homeless, while COOothcrs suf
fered partial losses. In that state farm
property worth $315,000 was burned, and
sawmills suffered losses aggregating $149,
000. It is estimated that 2.124,000,000 feet
of standing timber went up in smoke In
Oregon, largely Douglas fir, spruce, cedar
and he'mlock. The total loss In timber
alone was over ?3.O00.C0O. In all, 170.000
acres were burned over, all of which, savek
E0.000, were well timbered.
In Washington 434.000 acres were burned
over. The timber was fully as heavy as
the Oregon timber, and of better quality.
It is estimated that 5,026,500.000 feet of
Douglas spruce alone was killed, repre
senting a value of S5.026.S00. Other timber
to the value of $725,003 was destroyed. The
total loss in Cowlitz, Clark and Skamania
Counties, where the fires were most disas
trous, was $6,600,800, and in the other
burned areas, $2,236,500.
A singular chain of circumstances com
bined to make the fires so destructive.
Not only was the Summer very dry, but
the two preceding Summers were wet in
May and June, thus interfering with the
burning of slashings and allowing an un
usual amount of debris to accumulate.
The most direct cause was carelessness.
This is shown distinctly by the fact that
practically no damage was done In the
Cascade forest reserve, which is patrolled
by forest rangers.
In many Instances the fires smoldered
for considerable, periods, without attract
ing attention, and this In the face of the
fact that the past season was one partic
ularly favorable for forest fires. Many
blazes started from the unextinguished
campfires of berry-pickers or hunters,
others resulted from careless burning of
slashings, and one was known to have
originated from locomotive sparks. With
the exception of this case, reasonat'e pre
caution on the part-t)f individuals would
have prevented the loss of millions of dol
lars. It is the opinion of the bureau, after
tracing many of the fires to the origin,
that most of them could have been extin
guished before they became serious.
PORTLAND POSTOFFICE PLAN.
To Be Prepared by the Department
"Work in the Spring:.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, Nov. 20. Senitor Mitchell had a
conference with the Supervising Architect
Of the Treasury Department today In re
gard to the Postofnce building at Port
land. The Supervising f Architect and the
department hold that the plans submit
ted for the Improvement by Postmaster
Croasman cannot be adopted, for the
reason that a building oh this plan would
present architectural features-that would
be an eyesore. The department Is pre
paring plans of its own which will be
adopted. The building will be nearly
square In form, and will make suitable
provision not only for the postofflce but
for the Federal Courts and all other of
' fices now in the Postofflce building. It
will be necessary, therefore, vto secure
temporary quarters for the postofflce and
other offices. The building will be en
larged and remodeled by contract as a
whole, and It will perhaps be two months
before the proposals will Issue. Work
cannot be commenced before the early
Spring.
ROW NICARAGUA . ROUTE
Friends for That Canal Are Pidgins
Up Courage.
WASHINGTON. Nov. 20. The check In
the negotiations with Colombia relative to
the Panama Canal has given great en-,
couragement to the friends of the Nicara
gua project, and the first evidence of re
newed activity on their part was the ap
pearance at the State Department today
of Senor Corea, Nlcaraguan Minister to
Washincton.
Secretary Hay has several times called
the attention of the Colombian Govern
mer.t to the fact that under section 4 of
the Spooner act, if he is unable to obtain
control of the necessary territory in Co
lombla by treaty, then he is required to
obtain such territory from Costa Rica and
Nicaragua. t is now said to be probable
that to emphasize the repeated declara
tion that the action of Congress In the
passage of the Spooner amendment did
not finally commit the United States to
the acceptance of the Panama route. Sec
retary Hay may proceed to draw up i
treaty with Nicaragua and Costa Rica and
submit it to the Senate along with such
a treaty with Colombia as he may be
able to conclude. In this way the Sen
ate Itself might decide whether or not the
Colombian treaty is satisfactory, and If
it should decide In the negative, then
It will haveat hand the Nicaraguan-Costa
itican treaties so that tnere will be no
excuse for delay in the canal project.
As for the Columbian negotiations, it
can be stated that the United States has
r.ow gone to the practical end of the con
cessions It Is willing to make. The Co
lomblan Minister here has been notified
of the decision reached and Is expected to
make further reply either accepting or
rejecting our last proposition. One of
the objections lodged by Colombia Is the
difference over the tenure of the United
States In the canal strip. Prominent Sen
ators who have been consulted by the
Btrt.e Department have Indicated their
strong opposition to the acceptance of a
hundred years' lease with provision for
renewal as sufficient to meet the provi
sions of the Spooner act Nothing less
than "perpetual control" as set down In
the act will satisfy them. The Colombians
say that would be a violation of their
constitution. But a careful reading ol
the Colombian constitution by the officials
here dorn not satisfy them that there Is
any such prohibition against alienation
of territory as la represented.
SHORT SHRIFT FOR NEGRO
Identified ns Havlahcr ol Trro "White
Women. x
SULLIVAN. Ind.. Nov. 20. George
Moore, the negro who criminally as
saulted Mrs. Man Davis, of Sullivan
County, and Mrs. John Lemon, of Knox
County, on Tuesday last, was hanged to

John Lemon, husband of one of the
women who had been assaulted by the
negro, with a party -of friends, went to
Lawrcncevllle last night and identified
him as the woman's assailant. Late this
afternoon he was brought to Sullivan In
a wagon by the Sheriff and h!3 deputies,
to be taken before the woman, for fur
ther Identification. The Sheriff and his
depiitles attempted to slip Into the town
with the prisoner, but a mob. of 40 or 50
farmers, heavily armed, took the prisoner
away from them and started the Investi
gation themselves. The negro was taken
to the home of Mrs. Davis, where he was
Identified, and then the mob started with
the negro for the farm of John Lemon,
10 .miles from this cits'. The mob In the
meantime had swelled to enormous pro
portions. The negro was Identified by
Mrs. Lemon. The crowd . then started
back to Sullivan with the prisoner, but
one mile east of the Lemon farm a rope
was thrown over the arm of a telegraph
pole and the trembling wretch was quick- j
ly jerked into the air. The1 Governor had
ordered out the Vlncennes militia to pro
tect the negro, but his instructions were
received too late.
After hanging the negro, the mob
quietly dispersed. It was composed most
ly )f farmers,, but was largely augmented
by citizens of Sullivan, Oaktown and
other towns of this county.
It was learned late tonight that the
negro who had previously given his name
as Jamos Dlllard and hLs hemn r.3 Ken
tucky, just before he was hanged, told
members of the mob that his true name
was George Moore, that he lived in In
dianapolis and asked them to ship his

TO PUSH THE TARIFF
Active Campaignfor Revision
at Coming Session.
PRESIDENT IN FAVOR OF IT
But He Does Sot Believe in Patting
Measure '-Forvrnrd Until There
Shall Be Axsnrnnce Republi
cans -Will Not Beat It.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, Nov. 20. An active campaign in
behalf of tariff revision Is to be com
menced at the beginning of the coming
session of Congress, and Is to be contin
ued throughout the session. The object
of the effort will be to arouse sentiment
in Congress, and especially In the Senate,
In favor of amending some of the tariff
schedules alleged to be unnecessarily high
and putting them on a strictly protective
basis. Some politicians who are famil
iar with President Rooseveltfs. attitude
on the subject believe that he would" be
glad to have Congress, at os early a date
as practicable, enter upon the work of re
vision, provided there .can be assurance
beforehand of making a clean Job of it.
At the last session the President several
times stated to Congressional visiters that
he did not want Congress to take up the
subject of tariff revision until the way
was clear in both houses for carrying it
through. -In other words, If he should
recommend and a majority of the Repub
licans of the House should concur In the
proposition that It was wise and neces
sary to revise the tariff, and then a co
terie of ultra-protectionists in the Senate
should succeed in frustrating the effort,
the Republicans would suffer more than
if the attempt had not been made. That
has been the President's argument right
along. He insists that the work snoum not
be commenced until all possible obstacles
to its completion shall have been removed.
In plain English, that means until the
ultra-protectionist Senators can be con
vinced by the majority sentiment In the
Senate. It may be said frankly that the
time has not arrived when It seems that
this can be done.
The campaign from now on will bo for
the purpose of convincing the men who
are standing In the way of revision that
the welfare of the Republican party in
the next election depends upon something
being done In the way of revision In the
mentlme. Pains will be taken to show
that this is not a movement toward free
trade, but a step to preserve the Integrity
of the protective principle. It will bo
urged that only the schedules which go
beyond the point of affording protection
will be pruned, and that they will not bo
pruned below the point of protection. It
will be contended that such action will
meet the popular demand and prevent
mere radical action later. If something be
not done in the near future.
KING LEOPOLD SPEAKS.
Last Days to Be Devoted to Liber
ties of His People.
BRUSSELS, Nov. 20. King Leopold
made a somewhat striking reply today to
a deputation from the Chamber headed by
the President, who presented HIss Ma
jesty with an address of congratulation on
his escape Saturday from the anarchist's
bullet. After thanking the deputies the
King continued:
"The times are very troubled. Agita
tors are constantly stirring up their fol
lowers to disturb that order which Is the
guarantee of public liberties. Without
order only license remains, which leads
Inevitably to despotism. Thece agltat6rs
find In their path firstly the heads of
8tates.v If they fall to reach them they
attack their wives, as in the case of the
horrible drama at Geneva. Their blows
are also aimed at Ministers, aa In the
case of Senor Canovas, ant they also blow
up the houses of private individuals.
They want to Intimidate us, but they will
not succeed. Even if they struck down
the head of the state it would make no
difference, as We would soon be replaced.
"In addition to revolver shots, they em
ploy the pen, which can -write what cal
umnies they please. I am nearing the
end of my life. I do not know how long
I shall live how long they will let me
live, but I can areure you all the rest of
my existence will be devoted, within the
limits of my constitutional powers, to the
good of ray country and the protection of
Its liberties."
