Klarnes to fury.
KUREKA. Cal.. Sept. 23. With strong
South winds fanning It to Increased fury,
a forest fire which broke out this after
noon at Camp 16 of the Vance Lumber
Company has already spread to Little
River, following' a southeasterly course
to that point and from there turning
east Into the heavy timber, where it Is
still burning furiously. The lumbering
plant of Kellstrom A Co.. which lay in
tiie path of the flames, was totally de
stroyed, as were all the houses of the
settlement there, but Mr. Kellstrom and
his family with the crew of the plant
escaped to Trinidad, where they are
being taken care of by the people of the
town.
At ft rut It was thought that Miss Kell
strom had been lost in the flames as
she was left behind in the hurry of de
parture, but she arrived at Trinidad to
night after a terrible trip lasting three
hours, which she made on foot through
the timber. Mr. Kellstrom and his wife
made their escape In an automobile,
' which Is the only property they saved.
The loss at Kellstrom's is estimated at
'ftt.OOO with no insurance.
Icstroys . Miles of Track.
The fire has swept over the tracks
of the. Hammond Lumber Company's
logging; road, destroying several miles
of track and several trestles. Traffic over
the line is tied up for several weeks.
Tiie Hammond company has sent all Its
engines to the scene of the conflagra
tion and the crews are fighting the blaze,
w hich is gaining on them steadily, urged
on by a SO-mile-an-hour wind.
Iast reports from the scene state that
the immense plant of the Little River
Redwood Lumber Company is threatened,
as the flames are within two miles of
the mills and running toward them fast.
The plant Is valued at J1.O30.000 with large
timber reserves and has not been In
operation since completed several months
ago.
People from the lumbering settlement
of LufTenholtx are arriving at Trinidad,
having everything behind them to be
destroyed by the flames, which are so
close to the settlement that the refugees
were glad to escape with their lives.
All the vast stretch of timberland from
UtfTe River and Luffenholts to Trinidad
Is being swept over by the flames and
timber valued at many hundreds of
thousands of dollars Is being destroyed.
The smoke in dense clouds is drifting In
advance of the flames, causing great
suffering to people miles away from the
scene of the fire.
At o'clock tonight the fire-fighters of
the Hammond company state that they
do not expect to check the spread of the
fire and that, unless the wind dies down,
the whole section of the country is
doomed. The fire is already the worst
in the history of the county.
Train's Wild Run to Safety.
The Hammond company's passenger
train arrived at Samoa at 9 o'clock with
refugees from Luffenholts and Field
Brook, who escaped with nothing but the
clothes they wore. The run of the pas
senger train through the burning forest
was a daring deed and was all that
saved the train crew and passengers
from certain death. The people tried to
escape along the seashore to the north
and east, but were hemmed In by the
fire before they realised it. To the south
the forest was burning on both sides of
tiie track, with the ties in some places
smoking. As a last resort sll got on the
train, which was stalled at Luffenholtx.
and with the paint on the coaches
shriveling the conductor gave the en
gineer orders to make a desperate run.
yor several miles the train passed
through a veritable sea of lire, coach
windows nearly breaking and the heat
so Intense that several women fainted.
Expecting to meet disaster at every
turn of the wheels and running at a
high rate of speed, the train shot through
the "inferno" into the open country
above Samoa, with the passengers cheer
ing wildly, thankful for the narrow
escape. i
r T -1 -,,. I
The latest reports are to the effect
that the fire at Field Brook is under
control and that the town Is in no Im
mediate danger, but at Luffenholts the
town Is completely wiped out. tracks,
roundhouse and flatcars destroyed, with
flames still raging and spreading from
a heavy wind. H. A. Poland, who ar
rived on a late train stated that his
mill there is In no danger, as the fire
was going eastward, but. If the wind
kept up during the night, the entire dis
trict from Trinidad to Field Brook,
comprising thousands of acres of valu
able timberland. would be swept by fire.
Vp to the present time no deaths are
known of. Fatalities, If any, will not be
discovered until after the Are burns Itself

IRISH LEAGUE MEETS
National Leaders From Emerald Isle
at Boston Convention.
BOSTON, Sept. 23. The delegates to
the National convention of the United
Irish League which had Its formal open
ing session yesterday, today began In
real earnest the work of the convention.
The committee reports told largely of- the
work of the organization In this country.
Several resolutions were considered' at
the forenoon' session.
Prior to the opening of the convention
th'.s morning, John E. Redmond, M. P.,
Joseph Devlin. M. P.. and John Fitzgib
bons. the Irish envoys were tendered a
reception by the students of Boston Col
lege. SAYS FACTS MISSTATED.
(Continued From First Page.)
my statement is true, and I regret that
he tries to brush it aside without doing
me candid Justice. Were I to adopt
the character of language so commonly
used by the President, I would say
what I mean tn fewer letters than are
contained In 'falsehood.' "
"Mr. Roosevelt, I hope to speak In
Ohio soon. May I hope to divide the
time with some partisan of yours or
Prince William who will defend your
action in this instance?
"President Roosevelt comes to Okla
homa and finds a substitute for his
Ohio failure. Does he do so In the
case of the State against the Prairie
Oil & Gas Companw, which he com
plains I compelled to be dismissed?
Tbrusts at President.
"Yes, I did have it dismissed. Tea,
we all know that the Prairie Company
is a Standard Oil Company offspring
and don't forget that the President
claims to have known this also, and I
charge that the political allies, Hearst
and Roosevelt, both know that I acted
properly.
"Now, . Mr. President, why did your
Secretary of the Interior grant what you
know to be a Standard Oil Company cor
poration a pipeline franchise in our terri
tory and fasten it on our new state by
provision of the statehood bill? Will
Mr. Hear.it or the President please an
swer? "I would also remind the President that
the company tried to enlarge Its rights so
as to Include a gas well as an oil priv
ilege. This I defeated, and even last
April, Mr. President, your Secretary of
the Interior tried to help the Standard
Oil gas privilege against my protest by
actually granting them a franchise to lay
an Interstate gas line also.
Explains Bis Veto.
"The President comes to the local af
fairs of the state and assails me for veto
ing a child labor bill. True, I did, simply
because the bill went too far and in
cluded things not desired by our people.
Union, labor representatives approved my
veto. I hope the President will survive
this veto of a local bill and permit us
to run our local affairs.
' "The President complains that we re
moved certain professors from our state
university, our three state normal schools
and preparatory schools in violation of
civil service rules. That is, the Presi
dent, with his usual Impetuosity and
reckless disregard of pt hers, misstates the
facts.
"The President complains that there
are several suits pending against me to
reclaim Creek Indian lands. The Presi
dent should have gone further and said
that I was not a dealer in Indian land
and only came In as a subsequent pur
chaser and only incidentally, being a
party without personal Interest at all.
Have Picked Wrong Man.
"In short, the President and Mr. Hearst
picked the wrong man and are now
driven Into ward politics, rather than to
surrender like men.
"The President assumes that all Okla
homans are grafters because his theoreti
cal associates Justify that name; that all
ex-railroad contractors are bad just be
cause Paul Morton needed his protecting
arm; that we all in Oklahoma violate the
civil service law. Just because Mr. Roose
velt removed the best United States Mar
shal we ever had. the only reason being
that he voted for a good Democrat In
stead of a bad Republican, and then ap
pointed his cousin to fill the vacancy.
Knows Position False.
"Knowing all these things, the Presi
dent must pardon us for .thus taking
Issue with the occupant of the high office
we all respect. Let us hope that in the
future he will appreciate and preserve
Its dignity and not try to reflect upon
the character of humble citizens. We
fall to concede his false position when
he knows it is false.

BREAK tP 1IISGEV MEETING
Friends of Senator Bailey Hiss
Speaker In Texas.
FORT WORTH, Tex.. Sept. 23. Thomas
L. Hisgen, candidate for President of the
Independence party, arrived here tonight
from Houston where he spoke last night!
About a) persons had gathered to hear
his address.
Mr. Hisgen In his speech referred to
the disclosures connecting Senator For
aker, of Ohio, with the Standard Oil
Company, and he coupled Senator Bailey,
of Texas, with the Senator from Ohio.
This brought forth a roar of hisses and
Jeers.
Former State Representative Lane,
taking advantage of a lull In the roar,
shouted to Hisgen:
"Bailey's got more sense in a minute
than you would have In a life time."
This caught the crowd which renewed
its hisses. Mr. Hisgen. after quiet was
restored, reminded his audience that he
had paid for the hall and expected to be
heard in a respectful manner.
Mr. Lane yelled to the speaker to quit
talking about Joe Bailey.
This brought on disorder and Hisgen
abandoned efforts at speaking. The
meeting broke up In a state of chaos.

Monnett Tells Origin of Has
kell Bribery Story.
OFFER OF $500,000 CASH
Charles B. Squire Gave Him Name
of Oklahoma Governor With
Others . as Making Proposi
tion From Standard OH.
COLCMBUS. O., Sept. 13. "If I
charged Governor Charles N. Haskell
wrongfully, it was because Charles B.
Squire gave me his 'name."
Frank & Monnett, ex-Attorney-General
of Ohio, today made this state
ment on the private car of William 'J.
Bryan, en route from Prospect, O., to Co
lumbus. Mr. Monnett declared, however,
that he" could not exonerate Mr.
Haskell from the charges that had been
made that he was a party to the $500,000
bribe fund of the Standard Oil Company,
nor could he condemn him.
"All that I have against Governor Has
kell." he said, "Is hearsay evidence, and
I have suggested that if the case were
presented to a grand Jury it would be
shown whether Governor Haskell has
been wrongfully accused."
Did Not Exonerate Haskell.
Mr. Monnett denied that he had made
speeches In Oklahoma, exonerating
Mr. Haskell, but that in fairness to
the Governor, he had stated the facts as
they had come to him. and said that if
the charges were proved, he would return
to Oklahoma at his own expense and de
nounce him.
In Justice to Mr. Haskell, Mr.
Monnett stated that the Governor had re
peatedly asked ah opportunity to disprove'
the charge and had been aubpenaed to ap
pear before the examiner who was taking
testimony in the Standard Oil hearing, but
that h? did not so appear because the
court had ordered the quashing of the tes
timony. "I threatened to arrest Mr. Squire if
he did not give me the names of the par
ties to the bribery proposition, whereupon
he mentioned Frank Rockefeller, Fred B.
Squires and Charles N. Haskell, of New
York."
Bribers Named by Squire.
Mr. Monnett said further that Mr.
Haskell "phoned, wired or wrote" asking
an opportunity to exonerate himself, and
that Governor Haskell was the only one
of the three men who did.
"He said at that time," Mr. Monnett
said, 'that there was a W. C. Haskell,
'who trained with the bunch,' to use his
own words, and that he at that time
held some public office at Washington.
That was the first intimation I had that
there might be some mistake in Haskell
figuring In the case."
Plan for Payment of Bribe.
The question of the payment of the
bribe, Mr. Monnett said, was that he
should be furnished with the key to a
safe deposit vault where the $300,000 was
to be deposited, and he was told that he
could first go and see It and then let it
remain in the deposit box until he retired
from office or until he got ready to take
the money out. Finding that he was
about to be arrested for offering the
bribe, Mr. Monnett said Squire disap
peared from New York, and despite his
efforts Squire had not been indicted.
EAGER TO TJNLOAT HASKELL
Democratic Committeemen Urge Re
moval Mack Awaits Proof.
' NEW YORK, Sept 23. It became known
at Democratic headquarters tonight that
several committeemen are preparing to
use every influence to bring about the re
moval of Governor C. N. Haskell from
the office of treasurer of the National
committee. This is a result of the pub
lication of charges that Mr. Haskell, as
Governor of Oklahoma, declined to permit
the state to prosecute the Prairie Oil &
Gas Company, a subsidiary company of
the Standard OH Company. -
Charges that Mr. Haskell has been
identified with several railroad promotions
In this city, which are said to have
been unfortunate in the matter of con
summation, are said to have also tended
to influence the feelings of these National
committeemen that the time has about
come for Mr. Haskell to resign from the
committee or be removed.
Mack Still Awaits Proof.
Pending consideration of the reply of
President Roosevelt to W. J. Bryan's let
ter asking that the President show proof
of the charges made, National Chairman
Mack is taking no action, in the matter,
nor would he state tonight what the out
come might be with reference to the
Haskell matter, though his attitude is
known to be such as to oppose the con
tinuance on the commltee of any one
whose affiliations are proved to be with
corporations whioh are opposed by Mr.
Bryan. Mr. Mack said tonight that he
had had no communication with Mr.
Bryan or Mr. Haskell on the matter and
that he would take no action unless Mr.
Roosevelt brought absolute proof of the
charges.
Knew Not Haskell's Misdeeds.
It was made plain by National com
mitteemen that, when Mr. Haskell was
selected as treasurer of the committee,
there was not the slightest knowledge
that any charge or suggestion could be
made against him with regard to his at
titude or reported connection with rail
road promotions and that Mr. Bryan him
self had no knowledge of the matter. Mr.
Mack declared today that, if the charges
against Mr. Haskell were proved, he
would expect Mr. Haskell to resign.
WIL-Ij NOT VISIT OKLAHOMA
Hearst Cancels Speaking Dates In
Haskell's State.
GUTHRIE. Okla.. Sept 23. It was an
nounced here today that William R.
Hearst who was to have delivered ad
dresses in the state next week for the In
dependence party, would not come to Ok
lahoma. Governor C. N. Haskell, treasurer of
the Democratic National Committee, an
nounced this morning that he would de
part on Sunday morning next for Ohio, to
make a speaking tour of that state.
Among other places he will visit Ottawa,
Ohio, the Governor's old home town. Gov
ernor Haskell said this morning that he
expected to be away from Oklahoma for
some time, but that he would return in 24
hours' notice ready to meet any Repub
lican In the state tn a Joint debate.
HAS RELL'S RESIGNATION IS IN
Democratic Committee Can Accept
It When Deemed Advisable.
WASHINGTON". Sept 23. (Special.)
The resignation of Governor Haskell as
treasurer of the Democratic National
Committee it was said here tonight on
good authority, has been, placed with
the committee, contingent upon any
happening or circumstance that might
make its acceptance advisable, it is
said, upon high Democratic authority,
that as far back as the Denver conven
tion leading Democrats feared the
prominence accorded to Mr. Haskell be
cause of the knowledge that he has had
corporation connections and was not
exactly the kind of a man to occupy
prominence in a campaign where a
great fight was to be made against
trusts and combinations.
It is said that, when the Hearst
charges were first sprung. Democratic
leaders induced Mr. Haskell to send in
his resignation, subject to any contin
gency that might arise. When he left
Chicago a few days ago, according to
the same authority, it was with the in
tention not to return in an official ca
pacity, so far as the National Commit
tee is concerned.
WOULD RESIGN IF GUILTY
National Chairman Mack Discusses
Governor Haskell's Position.
NEW YORK, Sept. 23. Chairman
Mack, of the National Democratic Com
mittee, said today that if the same
evidence was produoed against Governor
Haskell, treasurer of the committee, as
was produced against Senator Fo raker,
he would expect the treasurer to act as
Senator Foraker did, but that no evid
ence of such character had been adduced
up to the present time.
Speaking of the report from Chicago,
that the campaign fund of the Republi
can party was about $300,000, Mr. Mack
said that the funds in the Democratic
treasury , were less. He said that no
contributions had been -received above
Jlfl.OOO and that the committee would
not accept single contributions in amount
larger than that sum.
National Committeeman Josephus
Daniels, of North Carolina, said today
that Governor Haskell had been made
treasurer mainly for the reason that he
came from a state, Oklahoma, which has
a law guaranteeing state bank deposits.
SAYS FORMER DENIAL- STANDS
Governor Haskell Insists That Mon
nett Exonerated Him.
GUTHRIE, Okla., Sept. 23. When
shown the statement of Frank S. Mon
nett, ex-Attorney-General of Ohio, late
this afternoon. Governor Charles N,
Haskell said he had no statement to
make concerning the alleged Standard
OH deal, other than he had made "dur
ing the time Sheets, of Ohio, Invaded
Oklahoma in the primary campaign
making the charge against me."
"My statement at that time," said the
Governor, "was that I had had no con
nection with the affair and knew noth
ing about it"
The Governor stated that he could
prove by a number of Republican edi
tors, who, he said, were present when Mr.
Monnett made a speech in Oklahoma
City, that Mr. Monnett exonerated him
in the speech, whether he Intended to or
not.
W. C. HASKELL NOT THE MAN
Assures President He Was Not In
volved In Bribery Case.
WASHINGTON, 8ept. 23. President
Roosevelt today telephoned to W. C.
Haskell, Sealer of Weights and Measures
of the District of Columbia, ex-United
States Marshal for the Northern Dis
trict of Ohio and recently declared by
Governor C. N. Haskell, of Oklahoma,
to be the person charged by W. R.
Hearst with having offered a bribe to
ex-Attorney-General Monnett, of Ohio.
Mr. Haskell promptly went to the White
House and assured the President that
he was not the Haskell referred to, as
he had already stated In the newspapers,
and that he did not know what Haskell
Mr. Hearst had reference to.
Foraker Cancels Date.
GALESBURG, 111., Sept 23. Senator
Foraker today canceled his engagement
for the Lincoln-Douglas celebration here

"I -was so crippled that I could
scarcely walk. After having my shoes
on for an hour or two I could manage
to walk by suffering ths pain. Then
I began to have pains all through
my system. My doctor -told mo I had
an acute attack of inflammatory
rheumatism. I read about Dr. Miles'
Nervine, bought a bottle and I com
menced to get better from the start
and for the past six months have
scarcely any pain, and am able to
walk as well as ever."
