Portland, Sept. 13. Fires on the lower Columbia havo extended so that
for many miles the river Is practically ablaze on b'oth sides, and the smoke
Is so dense that river steamers are guided by the compass only. Most of the
logging camps are wiped out, Including such targe ones as Benson's and Oak
Point, where hundreds of men are employed. The homes of many settlers
have been burned, and poBslbly lives are lost. The upper Columbia, from
the Cascade locks to Bridal Veil falls, Is aflame. All trains are running with
the greatest difficulty and considerable danger. Late reports from the towns
of Lents, Harmony and, Gresham, In this county, show hard fire fighting,
and people are struggling desperately to save their belongings. Many who
are not burned out have their effects loaded on wagons, , and are ready to
flee at any moment.

tho forest fires that had settled over

from tho south, but tho wind shifted
Into tho weBt for fair wenther. This
