THREATEN BIG TREES
Fire Again Near Grove of Se
quotas in California.
CHANGE IN WIND ONLY SALVATION
Fire Fighters Are Powerless to Stop
Onslaught of Great Walls
of Flame.
Stockton, Cal., Sept. 3. News comes
by special to the Independent from
Murphys, which is connected by wire
with the Calaveras Big Tree Hotel, that
a forest fire has got into the grovo of
mammoth trees at tho upper end of the
grovo, near where tho mother of tho
forest stands, a monster sequoia 327
feet high and S feet in circumference,
Tho fnmous trees named after noted
men of history are below tho point of
attack, and tho only hopo for tho mag
niucent monsters of tho forest is
chango in tho wind, as tho firo-fighters
are powerless to stop tho liaines. To
get into tho grove of big trees tho firo
had to cross tho road leading to Gard
ncrs, which it did Tuesday night. Thcro
is little undergrowth in tho grovo, and
that may be tho means of checking tho
fire, but its sweep through tho grovo is
greatly feared.
The valley in which the grove is situ
ated contains of the sequoias 03 mon
ster trees. Ten of tho trees aro each 30
feet in diameter. Many aro more than
300 feet high. Tho firo has attacked
some of tho mammoth trees. The grovo
is owned by Air. whitesides, a Alichigan
millionaire lumberman.

the Russian warship Sobastopol and the
approximate place whero tho cruiser
Takasago sunk has beea located.

ship Hatsuse. The sinking of tho Ya
shima and Hatsuso was due to the plac
ing of mechanical mines by Rear-Ad

ing at Port Arthur, cruised continually

was laid into which the vessels steamea
and the Yasbami, Hatsuse and cruiser
Yoshino went down the same morning.

News of tho sinking of the Yashima
was suppressed for six months by the
Japanese government, and reports of

dicted with the result that not until
news of her destruction was published
in tbe official reports at the end of the
war was it generally known that she
had been sunk when the Hartsuse and
Yoshino went down.

NEW WAR CLOUD.

Hafid Angors Franco.
Paris, Sept. 4. Morocco lias again
caused France to become enraged
igainst Germany. The latter power
has provoked another acute crisis by
notifying the powers signatory ot the
Algcciras convention that she consid
ered the actual situation demanded
the immediate recognition of Mulai
Hafid, the usurping sultan of Morocco.
Germany has also dispatched Dr. Vas
scl, her consul at Tangier, to Vez, the
capital, which is now in the hands of
Mulai Hafid.
A feeling approaching consternation
is manifested in official circles. The
notification, which was made verbaljy,
is not accompanied by any explana
tion of Germany's "brutal change of
front," as it is termed here.
France can see in Germany's action
only her intention to disregard the
Algcciras act and seek a special posi
tion in Morocco for herself. The con
sequences both from an international
and French standpoint arc expected to
be deplorable.
In answer to Germany's call for
recognition of Mulai Hafid before he
has entered into engagements with
Europe, fanatical Arabs who had been

New York, Sept. 4. Backed by the
millions of the Saga Foundation, to
which Mrs. Russell Sage has already
turned over $10,000,000 for elevating
the economic condition of the poor,
trustees of the fund are engaged ia
investigations which may result in an

Trains Expectod to Reach Wallowa
by September 20.
Wallowa. Trains will be running
on regular schedule into this city on
September 20. Such is the announce
ment made by H. II. Wcatherspoon,
agent for the O. R. & N. at Elgin,
who received the information from the
icadquartcrs of the company last week
and such are the instructions received
by Engineer Brandon, of the con
struction department.
Great progress has been made by
the tracklaying crew the past few
weeks, and the road has emerged from
the Wallowa canyon and entered the
Wallowa valley. For months the
road has been building through a
winding canyon, between crags, along
a picturesque mountain stream that
will render it one of the most scenic
bits of road in the state.
Progress naturally has been slow,
for nearly all the rails have been laid
on curves and had to be bent. Many
bridges, culverts and trestles have
been necessary, and the roadbed has
needed much repair. For more than
twenty miles this work has been fol
lowed until the track reached the valley.
Union Crops Average Well.
La Orando. Many reports havo gone
out regarding tho crop of Union county,
and some of theso reports havo boon
extremely pessimistic; somo havo been
encouraging. Now that threshing is
well nlong, it is known that tho crop
is less than average, say, thrcc-quar
tors of a normal yiold. Somo farmors
havo but littlo to show for tho year's
work. Othors have 'an avorago return
for their labor, and a few of tho mon
who make farming their profession, in
stead of a moro mnkeshift, havo bumper
crops. Tho Amalgamated Sugar com
pany is threshing 2,200 acres or small
grain, and expect nt least an nvorago
vield. Some of their farms will turn out
much hotter than avorago. Tho best
crop will be up to normal, in spite of
earlier predictions to the contrary. j

Republicans Carry Vermont by a Ma
jority of 20,000.
While River Junction, Vt., Sept. 2.
Tlie Republicans won the election In
Vermont yesterday by carrying the
state for Lieutenant Governor George
II. Prottty, of Newport, for governor,
by about 28,000 votes over James E.
Burke, of Burlington, his Democratic
opponent. The plurality was the
smallest in a presidential year since
1892, when it was only 18,500, and
was followed by a Democratic na
tional victory;, but it was larger than
in 1888, and only slightly less than in
1000. There was a falling off in four
years of about 8 per cent in the Re
publican vote, while the Democratic
vote fell off about 2 per cent.
The Independence League appeared
for the irst time, and polled about
1000 votes, while the Prohibition and
Socialist vote remained about the
same. An unusually large number of
local candidates for the legislature;
although bringing out a heavy vote
and resulting in Democratic gams in
the lower branch of the legislature
apparently had no bearing on the
gubernatorial fight.
As Vermont is the first state to
vote during the presidential cam
paign, there was much interest
throughout the country in the size of
the Republican plurality
THREATEN RIVAL FAIR.

Jnpanoso Business Mon aro Disgusted
With Government.
Tokio, Sept. 2. The dissatisfaction
of the Japanese commercial bodies
over the postponement of the Tokio
world's exposition from 1012 to 1017
has become so marked that there is
danger that the scheme will have to
be abandoned altogether.
At a mass meeting of the Tokio
Business Men's association yesterday
afternoon the action of the cabinet in
postponing the exposition was con
detuned in unmeasured terms, and a
formal protest against the action was
framed and sent to the minister of
commerce and agriculture, under
whose supervision the fair is to be
given. '
The meeting of the business men
was exciting. Charges that graft had
crept into the management of the
proposed fair were freely made. It
was stated that the fair could be given
for less money than was proposed, i
the management was economical
They said the exposition would be a
big factor in the ending of hard times
As an alternative, they threaten to
have an industrial fair of their own in
1012 under the auspices of the various
commercial bodies of Japan, if the
cabinet docs not restore the origina
date of the proposed world's fair.
The matter is to be discussed at :
special cabinet meeting
TRAINS ARE BLOCKADED.
Canadian Pacific Lino Cut to Pioces
In Manitoba.
Winnipeg, Man., Sept. 2. Thou
sands of passengers on transconti
ncntal trains of the Canadian Pacific
arc blocked today between Winnipeg
arid Thunder Bay. Over 20 heavily
laden passengers trains have been
stalled by vast washouts, which have
swept miles of track from the inotiu
tain grades into the valleys.
Several cloudbursts last night and
this morning did more damage, and it
is feared it will be days before even
temporary tracks can be built around
the dangerous places.
The railroad company is feeding
and caring for the marooned passcn
gcrs. Most of them arc bound for
New York, Boston, Chicago and Mon
treal from the west and cast.
It is impossible to learn the exact
extent of the damage done by the
floods, because the telegraph and tel-
