". Sixty Rorses, perished In a. fire of un
known origin which started shortly after
12 o'clock yesterday morning in the Dexter
Livery stable, corner Fifth and Ankeny
streets. The loss to buildings and prop-
- erty is estimated at fully SIS.OOO.
The blaze gained rapid headway In the
" dry fodder In the loft of the barn and the
old two-story frame structure of dry
. lumber was In less than no-time a seeth
ing mass of flames which spread rapidly
throughout the structure from Fifth
street to Fourth.
The flames crossed Ankeny street at
the corner of Fourth and partly de
stroyed a small- wooden building used as
1 a storehouse.
- Water Tank Takes Fire.
' A water tank on the roof of the Mar
f shall-Wells Hardware Company's big
building, adjoining the stable, took fire
and the roof of the building was badly
scorched, the damage being estimated
at $200. Explosives are said to be
stored on the fifth floor, but the fire
men, smothered the flames before they
got through the roof. The fact that it
was a windowless brick wall next to
the stable saved the block.
The second story of the Burton lodging-house,
at the corner of Fourth and
Ankeny streets, was completely gutted,
and the meeting room of the Volun
teers of America, on the first floor, was
damaged from fire and water. Next
door to this building Jung Lin, a
Chinaman, -with a family of eight or
ten children, barely escaped with their
clothes. Jung's loss is $500.
Candy Wagons Burned.
In a vacant lot adjoining were col
lected a dozen or more popcorn and
oandy wagons, about half of which
burned.
The Hennlnger Messenger Company's
quarters, corner of Fourth and Ankeny,
suffered $300 loss to stock and fixtures.
Holzman's stock of paints and fixtures.
In the sign-painting shop, adjoining, 'was
damaged $100.
Delay in Getting Water.
The fire was one of the most spectacular-seen
in Portland In years. It was sev
eral minutes before the Fire Department
-got a stream of water on the flamea, and
the rickety frame structures were quickly
devoured.- Showers of sparks shot high
into-' the air. the wind carrying great
clouds of burning cinders over the roof of
""the- Marshall -Wells hardware building
o the south.
i' Livery Heaviest Loser.
'," Patterson. Hart & Co., proprietors of
.the Dexter livery stables, suffered the
heaviest loss, estimated at $10,000. Over
,y. 10 head of horses were confined in the
,'i'Uikltng, and it is estimated that at
J, least half this number perished in the
flames. Some one was able to cut the
horses loose from their stalls and a large
number of the animals got out before the
flames overtook them.
Horses kept coming from the burning
building even after the interior was
v. aflame. Many of the animals escaped
a- with their manes and tails singed clear
, of hair. One horse was seen to come out
' of the burning building to the edge of
" the sidewalk only to return to find death
among the flames.
The lire alarm was turned in by two
men who saw flames bursting from the
livery statin building at the corner of
"' Fifth and Ankeny streets and Jumped
"''from a passing streetcar to turn in an
alarm from box- o4, corner of Fourth aiid
Ankt-ny streets.
- Charles AI. Patterson, one of the pro-i-prietors
of the stables, entered the office
" phortly after the fire got under head
way to recover $MW of hie personal money
from the safe. While working at the
combination the walls fell and Patterson
was badly cut on the hands and arms
by a large piece of glass. His injuries
were of such a nature that he was hur
ried in an ambulance to a hospital.
BV1LDIXGS TO BE TORN" DOWN
Taolfic Paper Company Intended to
Raze Buildings Soon.
While there Is always an element of
sympathy lor those who lose in a con
flagration, in the case of the fire that
destroyed the livery and sales stable
last night at Fourth and Akeny, the loss
Is not without its compensating feature.
Across Ankeny street the old buildings
on the half block from Fourth to Fifth
were about to be torn down to make
room for the builduig to be erected by
the Pacific Paper Company. The old
buildings were practically of little value
and the ftre damage to them is nominal.
The tenants of these old buildings had
been notified to vacate and within the
next few days would have moved away.
As it is. whatever loss was sustained fell
upon the small shopkeepers who had re
mained .rin the premises after being
wnrncd to set out.
The 'HKx2iw lot occupied by the barn
was recently bought by a Los Angeles
syndicate. Frank Perrine being Inter
ested in the 'transaction. The firewall of
tlie Marshall-Welts building saved that
building from destruction, but the fire
furnished an object-lepeon that doubt
less will be taken cogniiance of by
property-owners who have buildings
alongside of frame structures in the
business districts of the city.
REFUSES TO QUIT OFFICE
Treasurer Re&vls Holds Books and
.Money of Wallowa County.
ENTERPRISE. Or., July 6. (SpeiaU
County Treasurer F. A, Reavis today re
fused to turn over the books and county
mony to W. T. Bell, who was elected
Treasurer on June 1 by one plurality over
Res. vis. The" reason given by Reavis for
not turning over the books is that Bell
cannot legally qualify, as he is already
holding one lucrative office, the Post
mastership of Enterprise, contrary to ar
ticle two. section 10, of the State Consti
tution. . i . - .
' Mr. Reavis states that he is acting un
der legal advice. Mr. Bell will, through
his attorney?, begin a mandamus suit at
once to compel Mr. Reavis to deliver
over the books and money. The money is
now deposited in the Wallowa National
Bank of Enterprise, of which Mr. Reavtti
Is assistant cashier. Mr. Bell's candidacy
was favored by a Joseph and Wallowa
bank and they exp3ct to be made deposi
tories of the county money, which at -this
time amounts to about $20,000.
Mr. Bell on June 6 tendered a provi
sional resignation as Pastmaster to take
effect if the department ruled he could
not hold both offic?s. He has been in
formed that it is contrary to the postal
regulations and immediate steps will be
taken for the appointment of his suc
cessor. Ben Weathers, editor of the
Wallowa Chieftain, who would like the
job. has the support of a large number of
business men and patrons of the local
office, besides the Indorsement of lead
ing Republicans over the state. W. F.
Eisenbeis, of Joseph, is also an aspirant.

NEW YORK, July 6. The Roosevelt,
Peary's Arctic exploring ship, left her
pier this afternoon on a voyage as far
into the ice of the North as she can
safely be taken, whence Peary will
make his dash for the pole. Commander

BOMBMAKER IS ARRESTED
Italian Grocer Prepared Explosives
for Black Hand Agents.
NEW YORK. July 7. Detectives of
the Italian squad last night arrested a
man whom they claim was the maker
of the bombs used in the recent Black
Hand outrages. He said he was Savarle
Viral, a well-to-do grocer, &0 years old,
and had been in this country 25 years.
He declared his arret was an out
rage. He was not moved even when
detectives produced a memorandum
book in which were many strange for
mulas, apparently giving ' directions
for the manufacture of bombs, as well
as well-executed drawings of the
ground plans of houses, in some of
which, according to the police, bombs
have been exploded already.
"The book is not mine." he said. "I
know nothing about it. I do not know
the Blavk Hand and I do not make
bombs.'
Latter the detectives brought in four
more men , alleged to be accomplices
of Virzi. Letters said to have been
sent by blackmailed victims to the
gang in response to demands for money
were seized also.
According to the detectives, there
is enough evidence in the book which
Vlrzi repudiated, to make all his denials
of guilt useless, and they declare that
he is the master bombmaker for the
Black Hand in this city.

WASHINGTON, July 7. There was

eral complaints have been registered
here of late by the Indians, who de
clare that the whites, through Gov
ernment officials dealing with half

ing possession of their land with but
nominal remuneration, and this Is
understood to have been the cause of
the trouble.

BASEBALL GAME
Plays Right Field for States
men in Contest with Cor
respondents. FAILS TO SCOP.L A RUN
Hits Horsehide for Home, but Young
Son Charlie at Second Catches
Hot Liner and Puts
Father Out.
HOT 8 P RINGS, Va., July 7. "William
H. Taft,, Republican candidate for the
Presidency, yesterday distinguished him
self on the. diamond where a game of base
ball was played between the statesmen so
journing here and the newspaper corre
spondents. The game was the result of
the activity of Senator Murray Crane
who has had long conferences with the
Republican candidate while here. Mr.
Crane had no sooner finished his break
fast today that he began planning for a
contest of skill between, the statesmen
and the correspondents.- The statesmen's
nine was made up of Senator Crane,
pitcher; Representative Burke, of Penn
sylvania catcher; John C. Everaman, sec
retary to Representative McKinley, first
base; Representative Burton, of Ohio,
second base: Representative McKinley,
eentor field; Senator Beveridge, left fields
and William H. Taft, right field.
Proxies Win Honors.
When the game began Mr. Taft was
having a talk with Senator Beveridge on
Indiana politics and they gave their
proxies to two colored boys, who gained
them more glory In the matter of field
ing and batting than their principals
scored after they finally finished their talk
and assumed the responsibility of the
game.
The game was hotly contested, but for
some reason the correspondents fell be
hind in their- score and lost out after
eight innings, by a score of 14 to 11. The
correspondents went outside of their own
numbers for the second baseman, plac
ing young Charlie Taft in that respon-
slble. position.
Puts His Father Out.
Charles distinguished himself when his
father went to bat and struck the second
ball delivered to him. The ball went
whistling toward second base and it
looked as if it would give Mr. Taft a
home run, but Charlie nipped his father's
hdpes by catching him out.
The game was played on the local ball
grounds Just after a heavy rain, and as
the participants sprawled in the mud in
their frantic efforts to run the bases, all
were rather the worse for wear when
the game had been played. Mrs. Taft
came out to see the game, which was
witnessed by a large number of specta
tors from the hotel.
Conference Over Indiana.
Senator Beveridge, of Indiana; Repre
sentative McKinley, of Illinois, and Rep
resentative Burke, of Pennsylvania, ar
rived here yesterday. Mr. Beveridge was
closeted with W. H. Taft for a couple
of hours and they went over conditions
in Indiana arid elsewhere with great de
tail. Mr. Beveridge told Mr. Taft that
he did not consider that the affairs of
the party in Indiana in any condition to
endanger the state next Fall.
Mr. Taft will ha.ve a talk with Mr.
McKinley and Mr. Burke tomorrow. Sen
ator Hemenway and Representative Wat
son will be present tomorrow to take
part In the conference. Mr. Beveridge
and Senator Crane left tonight for their
homes.
With the Increasing, number of confer
ences concerning the chairmanship of the
National committee, ft is apparent that
Mr. Taft desires - to have a chairman
whose selection shall""be as nearly unani
mous as possible, but his own preference
for Frank H. Hitchcock seems to be gen
erally conceded.
Mr. Taft's horses have arrived and
hereafter he will alternate golf with rld
inff over the mountain paths.
MANY COREANS MURDERED
Patriots Rill Countrymen Wlio Bow
to Japanese Yoke.
SEOl'L. Corea. June 15. via San Fran
cisco. July 7. (Correspondence of the As
sociated Press.) Nearly 1000 Coreans
have been murdered by the Corean insur
gents and so-called patriots wlthip the
past few months. These Coreans were
members of the Il-Ching-Hoi, a pro-Japanese
society. Most of the Coreans mur
dered by their fellow countrymen were
peaceful, hard-wofking men whose only
crime seems to have been opposition to
the disturbing element In the country and
friendliness to the Japanese protectorate.
In addition to those murdered there
have been a number of cases of cruelty
and hardship. The actual statistics care
fully collected and in every case verified,
show that since the Japanese protectorate
of Corea commenced 926 members of the
Il-Ching-Hoi have been murdered by the
Corean insurgents, 360 houses have ben
burned. Involving a loss of about 60,000
yen.
The revolution in Corea Is gradually be
ing driven into a corner. Scattered bands
of rioters are being rounded up and either
forced to surrender or their activity ef
fectually stopped. The course taken by
the government In the last rigorous cam
paign instituted against the disturbing
element is approved by the people of the
country, both foreign and natives.
GIES WILL BE RELEASED

PHILADELPHIA. July 7. Frederick

garding the murder of Dr. William H.
Wilson, who-died after drinking poisoned
ale. was given a hearing before a Magis

BERLIN, July 6. A special dispatch
received by the Lokal Anzeiger from
Teheran, timed at 10 o'clock this morn

untried in order to- secure the capture
of the remaining revolutionary leaders.
Sej ed Chemal, one ol the most
prominent revolutionists, has been ar
rested at Hamadan, 165 miles southwest
of Teheran, disguised as a soldier. He
will be brought to Teheran, where the
sentence of death awaits him. He fled
during the bombardment of the Parlia

Fifty of the chief spokesmen of the
Sliiite religion, the correspondent con
tinues, have sent a request to the Ger

to resist the proceedings of the Shah.
Reports from Tabriz declare that
sanguinary fighting is still going on

HIGHEST PEAK IN CANADA
Two Men 'Will Try to Surmount
Snows of Mount Robson.
Two trained mountaineers of Canada,
Dr. Coleman, the geologist of Toronto
University, and Mr. Kinney, of Vic
toria, B. C, will attempt to reach the
top of Mount Robson this Summer. It
is a virgin peak. Mr. Kinney went to
the mountain last year only to meet
rain below and snow above in such
quantities that he could not make the
climb.
Mount Robson is one of the most in
accessible summits In North America
It stands a little west of the divide be
tween waters going to the Arctic Ocean
and others flowing to the Pacific.
So far as is known it is the highest
point in Canada. Its height was ascer
tained by the Canadian Geological Sur
vey only about ten years ago. It is
13.7)0 feet above the sea and rises
10.750 feet above the neighboring val
ley, but somehow it never Impressed
those 'who saw it with its tremendous
elevation, nearly two miles above their
standpoint.
It Is in the center of scenery of re
markable grandeur. James McEvoy, of
the Canadian Geological Survey, ex
plored tnis region in 1888 and said that
the descriptions of Milton and Cheadle,
written in 1S65, had in no respect been
overdrawn.
Thl Is of Interest to all tourists In
America, because Uua magnificent

mountain region, now very hard to
reach and impossible for the ordinary
traveler to traverse, will before long
be open to all. The route of the Grand
Trunk Pacific, which is now being ex
tended westward from Edmonton, will
be carried through the Yellow Head
Pass, and. In the stretch where it will
skirt the northern bank of the Upper
Fraser the trains will pass only a few
miles south of the great mountain.
Mount Robson will be a hard propo
sition for the average mountaineer,
and its ascent will doubtless be left to
experts, for it has a slope of 60 de
grees practically from base to summit.
It Is glacier clad, very rugged, and its
apex of ice, glittering in the morning
sun, two miles in the air. Is said to be
one of the finest sights that mountains
anywhere afford.

Mystery surrounds the affair and the
stories of the wounded man and the
woman do not agree. Ingle insists he
was simply attempting to warn the
woman, who, he says, had annoyed his
sister's husband, to leave town, and
he claims the shooting was without
provocation. The bullets which ended

praise of the United States. It Is be
lieved that the lead thus set will be

other countries, but it is hardly ex
pected that any of them will do what
has been done by America.
