Chicago, July 11. Today was the
hottest day but one In the history
Of Chicago. Tonight the clty'B 2.
000,000 Inhabitants were exhausted
and the mercury still hovered about
the 90 mark.
In the government weather
bureau, 200 feet above the street
level, the thermometer registered
98 degrees at 4 o'clock this after
noon and at the same time Btreet
thermometers showed from 101 to
108.
Tonight the city health department,
making up the record of the day, oount
ed four adults dead and more than
60 in hospitals prostrated by Uie
scorching- rays of the sun. A doten
of these are In dangerous condition.
Ia addition, health officials declare a
great mnnv Infants have perished as
tbs direct result of the heat
Heat Climbs Rapidly.
ThS hot wave began at 6 o'clock this
morning, the thermometer rising by
until
i a - m mwA iim , 7i H m ti 1 l nay
reached an official record of 9fi at 4
o'clock this afternoon. Simultaneously
- instruments which were, placed against
telephone coles and the top of down
town buildings, registered 108 and ll)9
degrees.
All day long the winds frorrvthe'south
west brought increasing heat and de
pression. Lake Michigan was still and
hot and raflocted the sun's rays llko a
mirror. The heat was reflected lrom
the walls of the high buildings into
down-town .streets and became so In
tense that pedestrians gasped for relief.
This evening thousands gougnt escape
by taking excursion steamers for mid
lake, and the parks were packed almost
to suffocation.
Beat Drives Man Craiy.
Albert Gruner, a heat-orasied butcher,
tried to kill his entire family. He fa
tally wounded his niece, Florence Gru
ner, aged 16 years, and then committed
suicide. Robert Mahrling, 61 years of
age, fell dead from heat exhaustion
while eating. Josephine Gango. 14
vears old, expired from intestinal irou
iile due to heat. Andrew Boles. 47 years
old, also succumbled.
This evening the temperature began
to go . down, but the weather bureau
promised little relief until Monday, and
hospitals and ambulance companies
have prepared for a busy day tomorrow.

The most magnificent building of
reinforced concrete of which Portland
can boast Is the new Beard of Trade
structure at Fourth and Oak. The
building is receiving its finishing
touches this week, and scores of ten
ants are moving into the quarters that
they have been looking forward to for
months. The VmihUns Is absolutely
fire-proof, there liolnK nothing com
bustlblo used In construction except
the interior finishings. The Interior
arrangement Is commensurate with the
handsome and stately exterior. The
tiling, comprising thousands of square

feet of floor space, was finished In the
remarkably short period of 17 days by
Fred Wagner. The conduit work,
switch boards, and all interior wiring
was done bv the Comet Electrlo com
pany, wao have the best equipped
establishment for this class of work
in the .Northwest. The v entilating and
heating apparatus was installed by the
V. G. McPhrrson Co., who have
equipped most of the new office build
ings of the city.
The first tenants to occupy offices
In the "building were the grain and
stock brokers, Overbeck & Cooke Co.,
whose spacious offices are located on
the second floor.
Other beautiful offices now occunled
are those of the Cornptograph Co., of
which Mr. Hackett Is the local mana
ger. Although, located In the city but
a short time the business of the
Cornptograph agency has outgrown Its
original quarters and secured its pres
ent offices, comprising two suites In
this new building. This building has"
proved a revelation to the pioneer Ore- j
gonlan, and it is predicted that many I
others of like construction will be
erected In the very near future.

Tba following communication, with all
the earmarks of an Inspiration, was re
' celvad late last evening by The Journal.
It ! written Is a painful backhand style, j J
something similar to tne writing oi a
certain gentleman who has always stood
between the pnblie of Portland and the ) J
Sfflclent exploitation of its four-flush-;
era who would better be run out of i
. town. It is scarcely necessary to say
: that the communication was anonymous.
. Here Is the text of it:
The Mysterious Letter.
' Portland, Or., July 11. To the Ed
itor of The Journal You know the old
earing: "There Is always two sides
" to a question."
It seems by a close observer of the !
controversy, that the building inspector:
iff carrying things a little too far.
Would It not have shown more good
Judgment and solicitude for the city's j
welfare if he had dropped the Nottlng-,
ham case when he had shown the coun- j
oil their mistake and they promised to
be good in the future?
It is not likely they would have re-1
fieated the offense and in all probabil- j
ties that building would have stuod
' without endangering the city; whereas, I
: he Is endangering the city with a hlg
law suit, with his desire for publicity. .
One might contend it would b.- conJuii- :
. ' tog an unlawful act. Not necessary, fur
what Judge does not use his discretion
in punishing each case brought before ,.

' that seems to fit the case exactly:
"When wickedness exists, failure to
agitate against It is even greater wick
edness: but when the work has been
' done, further agitation Is not only just
as wrong, but it is folly also. I de
fipise the man who refuses to fight the
feat evils which hurt the people, but
equally despise the man who, when
" those evils are ended, will go on agitat
' Ing merely for spectacular effect and
his own pttllc advancement."

with public affairs In this then remote
region. The McKanlel family arrived,
t' at data moved tnto Kentucky. Iter
he removed to Illinois, and finally to
Missouri, settling In Andrew county.

seven children.
In April. 114. this family started

pany with Ford, fcrabrte, GiUiamm(baw,
Nichols, Simmons, Bush, Sager, Kin
dred, Morrison, Jones and many others,
including John Mlnto, who afterward
after a most strenuous experience, at
Tualatin plains, in December, 1844. and
the first work Mr. Mclfcinlel found
whereby he could ahk his widowed
mother was a Job of splitting rails for
Caleb Wilkins at M per hundred. Kelng
an indefatigable worker, he made 14
and sometimes $6 a day, a decided con
trast to what he could make In Missouri
splitting rails, where the wage was 50
cents per hundred and the timber diffi
cult to split.
The next year Mr. McDaniel removed
to Polk county and settled permanently
in the vicinity of Hlckreall. Ills habits
of industry enabled him to acculre prop
erty, and he soon began farming for
himself and successfully followed this
vocation up to the last.
In response to the call of Governor
Abernethy for volunteers to punish the
Cayuse Indians for the massacre of Ir.
Marcus Whitman, his wife and 12 oth
ers, on November 29-SO. 1847, Mr. Mc
Daniel enlisted and rendered efficient
service until the war closed by the sig
nal defeat of the Indians. One of his
trying exarier.ees In this Indian service
was the carrying of a dispatch from
Governor Abernethy to Colonel Ullllnm
at The Dalles, In April, IMS. With two
companions he Wt Oregon CItv and
went to the Cascades on horseback ar
riving at dark.. Without waiting to rest
the party took a canoe, paddhd all
night and arrived at The Dnlles at sun
rise ana aevere tne rrer.
Soon after t..e rtose of ihe Cayuse
war, on October IS. 18tr. Mr. Mr Daniel
was married to Miss Vlrlna A Fulker

dren, five of whom one daughter and
four sons witti the aged widow, now in
her eightieth year, survive Mm. Mr
McDaniel became a member of the nap
tilt church in Missouri In 1841. and was
one of the six charter members of the
Fecond Baptist church, organised In
