overflowed from the big union sta
tion and streamed up the streets,

Salt Lako, Utah, Aug. 29.---
Tho salt Palace, consisting of a
pavilion, 150-foot wide bicyclo
track nnd other amusement fea-
turoa, was destroyed today by a
fire, boijoved to havo been of In-
condlat'y- origin.
The fire started in tho "third
degree" concession and spread
rapidly". Tho entire Salt Lako
fire department fought the
flames for 10 hours before tho
fire was controlled.
The track was being used for
'race meets for tho benefit of In-

tho lady with tho red hair accom
plshed greater feats than worming
financial secrets from ambitious mil
lionaires for tho benefit of n power
ful financial coterio.
"She has been a mighty factor in
state, financial, fedoral and Inter
national affairs," said Lawson. "I
remember the conference which Mrs.
French tells of between Hclnzo, H.
H. Rogers (now dead) and myself
and others at tho Waldorf-Astoria
hotel. It was beforo I had broken
with 'the system.' Hclnzo had hold
up tho whole situation and was forc
ing us to settle.
"Thero was no hesitancy on iho
part of the 'system' gentlemen in
using their secret agontj tho lady
with tho red hair whenever they
found a susceptible man. Of hqr
relations with Helnzo I know
nothing.
"But I am surprised that tho
lady did not como beforo the -public
before, as she Is a mighty factor In
national affairs and owing to her
powers in a three-days and night
seance of politicians at a Union
Square hotel a few years ago a fed
eral senatorship was decided.
"Again in an international com
plication involving tho salo of f frelga
Island territory to tho United States,
In which an international scandal
had started, this woman blnndlsh-
ments smoothed the troubled wators.
Lawson further discussed tho ac
tion of Helnzo in forcing tho Amal
gamated Copper peoplo into a settle
ment during tho copper war and re
called a Waldorf-Astoria conference
whero $12,000,000 was paid to
Helnzo, whoso control of tho sltua
tion lay In his domination of tho
Montana stato government.
