H E A D Y FO R F IG H T . Property Loss at Fgrnie Not Less Than S 2 ,500,000. Stannard May Not be Able to Slip Out of Landis’ Decision. Spokane, Wash., Aug. 4.— A special from Fernie, B. C., to the Spokesman- Review, says: It is feared that the loss of life will reach beyond 100, but there are so many living people without homes or shelter or food to be looked after that up to the present no effort has been made to ascertain the number of those who lost their lives. In the district swept by the flames there is estimated to have been some 7.000 people. Two thousand of these people have been sent west to Cran- brook and Elko, some 1,500 fled from the flames to the northward and reach ed Hosmer and other places along the line. The Great Northern train took all the people it could carry up the line, fighting its way through sheets of flames before reaching a place of safety. Scores of families were separated, husbands not knowing where their wives and children were, and in some instances it was ascertained this morn ing that members of the same family were in Cranbrook, Fernie and Hos mer. The lowest estimates of the amount of the loss is placed at $2,600,000, and as nearly as can be ascertained the in surance carried will amount to some thing like $1,500,000. Of the 7,000 people who had been housed yesterday, 3.000 have been taken away. I t is es timated by the committee appointed that there will be 3,500 who will have to be furnished with temporary shelter and food. ___ Chicago, Aug. 3.—U nited States At torney Sims and Spécial Consul K el logg and W ilkerson to Jav drafted a petition to the U nited States circuit court for a rehearing of the Standard Oil case, in which the appellate court recently reversed Judge Landis. *■ Judge Grosscup ana his associates will be asked to reverse them selves on the ground that they erred in de claring that Judge Landis erred. The petition will aver that the circu it court m isinterpreted th e testim ony, m isread Judge L andis’ obiter dictum and did not understand the legal prem ises oh which he based his im p o rtan t decision. T he three points raised by the court will be met squarely. T he first is that Judge Landis attem ipl pted to im- pose a fir fine upon the New Jcrse 5CV Oil com pany for the of- Oil compa ü standard f ----- fenses of the Indiana corporation. T his is to be flatly denied and the record to be cited to confirm the claim th at the court did not read the decision of the lower court as it applied to the evidence. T he second point, th at the whole offenses were in settlem ents and not in each shipm ent, and th at ignorance of existing rates excused the accept ance of rebates, will be respectfully characterized as m isapplication of the law and a ruling co n trary to its known maxims. T he third point, that the fine of $29.- 240,000 is excessive and confiscatory, is to be met by the contention that the corporation is a chronic offender and gained m any tim es the am ount of the fine by alleged rebating m ethods. The financial statem ents of the com pany, showing net gains of m ore than $50,000,000 since the rebating be gan, the governm ent regards as elo quent argum ents. D E A TH L IS T GROW S. Seventy-Four Said to Have Perished in Destruction of Fernie. Winnipeg, Manitoba, Aug. 4. —As a result of bush fires the town of Fernie, B. C., is wiped off the map as a child cleans a slate. Michel, 14 miles dis tant, is in flames and the fate of Hos mer and Sparwood, intervening towns, is in doubt, they being cut off from communication. Over 100 lives 'are known to have been lost, 74 of them in Fernie. A territory of 100 square miles is a seething mass of flames. Through it are scattered hundreds of lumbermen ahd prospectors, so that the actual loss of life will not be known for days. The properties of the Canadian Pa cific and Great Northern railways are destroyed, the bridges and rolling stock burned so that it is impossible to enter or leave the burning area. There is no possibility of estimating the loss of lifei and property which will result, for the flames are driven by a half gale, making it impossible to put up a fight against their advance. The conflagration is the greatest which has ever reached Canada and ranks only with the San Frtmcisco dis aster. For the past month forest fires have been raging in the mountains of Elk river valley country, but they have not been considered serious. Saturday morning a heavy wind sprang up from the west and early in the afternoon the flames'appeared over the crest of the mountains to the west of Fernie. This ran down the mountain side and before a fire guard could be organized had entered the town._____ R EG EN TS G E T BUSY. C A N ’ T S E LL W OR M Y APPLES.
