The home of John Vaught was burned to the ground. Fire spread to the roof of the P. Bailey home nearby, but was put out before It spread. The whole community aided the volunteer fire department in stopping the spread of the flames. According to Mayor Charles Dixon, the town's equipment and water supply were adequate, except for the fact that there was some delay in bringing up connections for extra hose which was needed to get water to the blaze. The mayor says the entire equipment Is being gone over to bring It to the highest stand ard for communities of comparable size. BORN BREWSTER To Mr. and Mrs. Jess H.

OP) Lead ers of the On Leong and Hip Sing tongs, in conference today with fed eral authorities, declared a truce until 10 o'clock tonight. At that time they will go into conference m an effort tu effect a lasting peace. Today's parley was attended by three leaders of each toug. half a dozen neutral Chinese renrpHPntiiig benevolent societies, U. S. Attorney Charles H. Tuttle, at whose request the conference was called, ami As sistant U. S. Attorney George J. Miutzer. With five Chinese killed in the loot- Iva ftnvM hr in Vpwnrlt ' V .1 . Chicago and Boston, Tuttle sent out word today that if the tongs did not settle their differences by to night federal agents would stage a wholesale roundup that would result In hundreds of Chinese being de ported. NEW YORK. Aug. 6. UPVVron pects of one of the bloodiest to ng wars in years were seen today by ad ditional hillings both in this cit; and Boston, bringing the dead to five in two days in addition to several wounded. A few hours after U. 8. Attorney Charles H. Tuttle and Samuel Sung Young, Chinese consul general, had warned long leadera here that no vio lence would be tolerated pending a pence conference today, a Harlem IftundrymHti was shot and killed at his ironing board. Similarly in Boetou two Chinese were shot and killed within a few hours after tong leaders had assured the police there would be no tong warfare in that city. Police officials said it was the first time tong lead era had deliberately deceived them and expressed the belief the killings would result in the bloodiest tong war ever seen in New Kngland. In Chicago and Newark, N. J., where the killing sftrted with one death each on Sunday, a tense quiet prevailed. Police maintained close watch on the Chinese sections but no attempts at violence occurred. The cause of the renewed tong out break remained in mystery. One theory upon which New York police were working wiw that it was over the rice liquor trade which was naid to have become quite profitable with the deteriorating f quality of other bootleg liquor. At Newark it was thought the war might be over the opium trade, $fiO.O00 worth of the drug having been seized in that city Saturday. After a conference yesterday with Young and representatives of the rival tongs. Mr. Tuttle let it be known that if the wartare was nor lopi'en in .ew York at once wholesale deportations of Chinese would result. In a statement he said his purpose in calling a meeting of tong officers was to offer the good offices of Young and himself to settle any dif ferences that may have arisen and r Ftore thp neare agreed upon aftr tti way, Salmon and Ne Perce forests, a dozen or more new fires were re ported, mid fighters were still bat Ming the blaze on Buld mountain, which was still out of control. Its extent could not be estimated. The Salmon river fire in south Idaho was roaring anew, and fighters were sent across the Montana line to check it. High winds were blowing and the humidity was far below the danger point. The Chelan fire in Washington to day was covering six front a, and nearly fiUO men were fighting it. It was started by liffhtninE Friday nittht. and had burned over nearly 12,IHK acres. Late last night it had reached the crest of the Chelan-Methow di vide, and volunteers from Chelan. Mot how, Twisp, C'aretton and other towns were moving iigainxt it, under the direction of F. H. Brundage of Portland. Ore., federal forest fire control chief for Oregon and Wash ington, rorty-two fires in the en a tehee forest were reported under control last night. A blaze started Saturday near Wilbur, was believed to he near control after having burned &0O acres. LI FOR PARTY HEAD A fire wheih was thought to have burned over a large area and waB ap parently not in control Monday even ing was reported to 11. S. Shelley, supervisor of the Siuslaw national forest by M. H. Durbin, ranger at (Jardner, Tuesday, Mr. Shelley aid. The report did not give the- exact ex tent of the burn. The fire's locution was said to be on the south side of the Umpqua river between Ket-dsport and Winchester hay. The fire is not in the Siuslaw forewt, but is across the river. The fire wa burning over logged off land, the report stated, Mr. Shel ley said that the Boos Bay Kire Patrol association has charge of the fire-fighting in that locality. Several small light n:r.g fires from the biorm of Tuearlny of last week were iepjred to have flared up fn various parts of the Cascade forest by Arthur Moses, executive assistant of the Cattcade office. All were re ported under control. " RICHMOND, V.( Aug. 6. Virginia's embattled democratic hosts wero choosing a champion today to lead them in an effort to drive the republicans beyond the Potomac.
