Dona tus, with a mark of 2:16 and Dorothy M. with a record of 2.23, were burned to death yesterday afternoon in a fire which destroyed all the racing stables and stock barns and display stall at the fair grounds. The fire wns evidently caused from a still. which was being secretly operated In one of the haras. Ac cording to reports the place was sus pected and an attempt had been made 10 itet' hold of the sheriff's office by u.l.-iAiiiie. short timet after-wawJ the smoke was seen corning from the liHrn and tho fire department was fto tlfled, but the fire had secured such a start that it was impossible to stop it. The still was plainly to be seen after the building was destroyed, and had been' a copper still of about ten gal lons capacity, and had evidently been setting on a. kerosene stove. The sup position Is that there had been hay piled around the. outfit to hide It. There were rumors last night that the fire had been set to conceal the 'till and that the sheriff's force knew who was running tho still and were out after him. At any rate neither Sheriff Springer nor uny of his field deputies were to be found last night, alt being engaged on the oase. The horses burned were, the pro perty of J. B. Johnson, who has been training In Walla Walla and other places In this section for several years. Both horses had been entered for Ihe Walla Walla fair this full.
