Citizens at Wallace Try to Esti
mate Number of Deaths
in Woods
TEN TOWNS ARE IMPERILED
Government Official Informed
That Incendiaries Applied
Torch in Oregon
(Continued from rape Onr)
Opened freely, and the homeless are
in comfortable shape for the present.
Another train with Son persons on
board is expected tonight over the
Milwaukee road.
A Sense pall of smoke hangs all over
western Montana. In Missoula It was
dark as midnight at 5 o'clock, the
smoke having a lurid hue.
TOWN OF TAIT DESTROYED
' The to"-n of Taft, near the Idaho
line, was entirely destroyed before
daylight this morning.
Saltez, just below Taft. has been
abandoned by its inhabitants and is
known to be surrounded by fire. De
Borgia is seriously threatened and one i
man is missing. At SI. Regis, the fire
has crossed the river and threatens
outlying buildings, though no fears are
entertained for the town.
Haughan is reported to be destroyed,
the last word from there having been
that the fire was dangerously near
and the telephone operator was prepar
ing to flee.
The area covered by the fire is
roughly 100 miles square, most of it
in the mountains and sparsely settled
districts. It is difficult to obtain in
formation from any of the points, and
Impossible to reach some of the isolat
ed places. There is a probability that
there has been serious loss of life, as
there are prospectors, camping parties
and lumber men all through the moun
tains, and the fire may have come upon
them while they slept last night or
they may have wakened this morning
to find themselves cut off.
George Wallbillig, a packer, and two
companions reached Missoula tonight
from Adair. a station on the Milwau
kee road, west of Missoula, about 100
miles, arrived here this afternoon, hav
ing ridden their horses nearly to death
in escaping the flames.
They saw a car of dynamite and oil
at a construction camp near Adair
exploded as they left. The fire spread
rapidly and they believe the camp was
destroyed. There were 25 men there.
RKSCIT3 TRAIN ARRIVES
Camass Prairie, a farming village in
the Blackfoot country, surrounded en
tirely by hills, is the scene of a seri
ous conflagration tonight.
A courier arrived here tonight from
that place with an appeal for aid.
From Bonnet- 50 men were sent to
help the farmers and 51 more are go
ing from Mlssoula. The fire came out
of the timber and is sweeping across
the valley. Grain and hay are being
destroyed.
Throe more rescue trains reached
Missoula tonight from the west. The
Milwaukee ran in two of them and
the Northern Pacific another. The
last Northern Pacific train brought In
formation that the town of galtese, re
ported earlier to be threatened, had
caught lire before the train left St.
Regis.
MANY DEATHS REPORTED
From all directions come reports of
deaths in the flames, but they are not
authenticated, and it Is not believed
there have been many fatalities. Two
unknown men were overcome by
smoke today in the forest near Iron
Mountain.
A telephone message from St. Regis,
received here at 10 p. m., says the
tire .swept down Mullen gulch tonight
and cut off the towns of De Borgia
and Henderson. The Mann Lumber
company ran its logging train down
from Henderson, bringing men and
their families, after all bodies had been
burned. These towns will doubtless
■burn.
The old town of St. T:er?is at 10 p.
m. is threatened; the fire Is in a can
yon a mile from town, approaching
rapidly. The last equipment of the
Northern Pacific in that section is be
ing used to bring away the women
and children from St. Regis. Most of
the men of the town were at De Bor
gia, seven miles above, fighting fire
there, and many of them must have
been cut off.
DANGEROUS FIRE RAGING
IN GALLATIN FOREST
Flames Invade District Seven
Miles from Butte
BUTTE, Mont., Aug. 21.—A special
from Bozeman says:
A dangerous fire is raging under
the high wind in the Qallatin f
seven miles south of here, and lias
crossed over Mount Ellis and Is now
invading some of the most valuable
timber regions in the forest.
A hi: Miili is in danger, as is
1500 sheep belonging t" John
Works. Another flock of auoo sheep be
longing to John Harvey of Livingston
has jusi Raped the fire. The blaze
started from sparks from a threshing
engli n the ranch of Charles Hoy.
Under a high ivlnd tin. tire swept In
■ minutes across a mile of stub
ble into the brush at the timber edge
between Lime Kiln and Bear canyon.
Th' 1 Ore has i I through the
I at a rati of more than a mile

that the flames have I" en visible for
sever;, i hours at a dleta no oi se^ en

Ji ! ei>\ to get any rs
timat the burned
area, but it i quare mil
Supervisor Conkllng has beon calling
since 2 p. m. for 100 men to fight the
tire, but so far only 35 have responded,
Henry Ferguson, game warden, and
A. S. Pepper will go to the front in
Bear canyon and have hopes of stop
ping the lire when the wind goes down
tonight.
EXPRESS LITTLE HOPE
It the fire is not brought under con
trol tonight there is little hope of
stopping It, and the whole region be
tween here and Yellowstone park, In
cluding the Middle Creek and Gallatln
regions, will then be in very grave
danger.., A slight change in tin- wind
would take the fire directly to the spot
where a dangerous conflagration was
■topped two weeks ago.
Another fire of serious proportions i:i
reported tonight between fttorrs nnd
Hoffman, 12 miles southeast of here.
Miners from Hoffman have started. ,
Members of Royal Family Who May Risk Lives in
Effort to Aid Victims of Cholera in Southern Italy
under Hanger Baker, to take care of
this blaze.
Another fire was reported from near
Maudlow, just at the southern edge
of the Helena forest. There are also
several fires In the brush north of
Boieman, which may become serious
if the wind continues.
■ A special from Thompson Falls,
Mont., says: "The fire situation is
alarming. Thompson Falls is threat
ened by forest tires. A portion of
Belknap, White Pine, Noxon and Her
on burning; one solid line of fire from
here to the Montana-Idaho boundary
line, embracing a distance of 50 miles.
'Senator Dondan's lumber yards, 20
miles west of Thompson, saw mills
and yards at Cedar Spur, were burned
last night.
"The forest reserve have approxi
mately COO men In the Held fighting
fires, but there is no communication
with them, all wires being down."
FLAMES NOW THREATEN
2,000.000 TIMBER ACRES
Situation in Southern Oregon
Alarms Washington Officials
WASHINGTON, Aug. '21.—Incendiar
ism is now believed to be responsible
in large measure for the spread of
the devastating forest fires in the
west.
Acting Forester Albert F. Potter to
night received advices from Super-1
visor Buck of Medford, Oregon, stat
ing the continued spread of the fires
in southern Oregon had revealed clear
ly the work of incendiarism. Mr. Pot
ter would not discuss, even inferen
tially, what may be the purpose of the
firebug, pending an official report. For
est rangers are now engaged in round
ing mi definite evidence.
Mr. Potter views with nnxiety this
particular side of the situation and in
timated it may be necessary to call
upon Governor Benson of Oregon for
aid of the Oregon National Guard. As
many federal troops as possible are
being pushed on foot into the burning
regions from nearby posts.
lIANT.EK N'E.VR, CRATER LAKE
The fires are especially threatening
to the Crater lake country of southern
Oregon. Advices tonight indicate at
: i 2,000,000 ai res of timber are In
danger .if being swept away. Super
visor Buck reports the situation at
Medford, Ore., also is extremely critical,
ami there is little likelihood of ex-'
tinguishing the flames which in the re
gion are spreading with trem.nil.ius
speed.
Forest officials are now directing
their fighting forces to confine the
fires if possible to the east side of the
Cascades. Some encouragement was
feit in late advices tonight .stating 11n
firrs in the Wallowa, Ore., district were
under control, and troops there would
: ' •i. t to other points.
War department officials professed to
know nothing regarding the alleged re
fusal of Brig. (Jen. Mails at American
lake to send troops to southern Oregon.
Forestry officials, however, were ad
vised that at noon today five com
panies of 250 met left American lake
and are proceeding with all haste to
supplement tho forces now at work In
the ('rater lake country.

ROME. Aug. 21— King Victor Em
manuel and Queen Helene of
Italy practically decided today to
give up their trip to Montenegro and
go instead to the cholera district in
southern Italy to render what aid they
could to the unfortunate plague vic
tims there. Reports received from the
province of Bari Delia Puglio state that
the disease is rapidly spreading and
fifty deaths have occurred in forty
eight hours. Prince Nicholas of Mon-
gulch. They hugged the ground and
burled their faces in the mud on the
floor of the tunnel until the fire weul
by, when, half mad from the heat, they
ran and threw themselves into the
creek. Five were left dead in the tun
nel, and another, cut off from the crew,
was found burned to cinder."
LEAP INTO WATER OF CREEK
"I don't see how we ever got out
of that tunnel alive," said Charles
Hickman of Leeds, S. D., one of the
survivors. "Even the stones were so
hot after the fire had gone by that
we could not touch them, and had to
wallow In the. water of the creek.
When we were driven into the tunnel,
1 soaked my coat and vest and wrap
ped them around my head, keeping
my face in the mud and water as
much as I could without suffocating.
"When I got up to go out, I was
nearly crazy with the heat. I stag
gered from side to side, and once fell
to the ground, cutting my face. My
partner, Clark, was climbing beside me
and seemed to be unconscious when we
left. He has not been found, and I
think he must have been killed. We
drank steadily of the warm creek wat
er and it made us all sick."

PLOT OVERTHROW
OF KING MANUEL
Portuguese Newspapers Claim
Clerical Party Is Plan
ning Revolution
REGIMENTS JOIN MOVEMENT
Propose to Stamp Out Republic
ans and Establish Mili
tary Dictatorship \
. (Associated Prosn)
LISBON, Aug. 21.—The newspapers
today print alarming reports of an al
leged plot of the clerical party for the
overthrow of the Portuguese govern
ment and the establishment of a mili
tary dictatorship.
The Seculo says the clerical party's
strong and growing dissatisfaction with
the liberal policy of the government
has culminated in the organization of a
revolution to overthrow the adminis
tration, seize Its members and set up a
military dictatorship, the first object of
which will be to stamp out the Re
publicans.
El Mondo says that several regiments
have joined the movement nnd the
duke of Oporto, the heir apparent to
trie Portuguese throne, whiie ai the
Casino ; it Cascaes last night was ap
prised of this fact and took refuge in
the fortress.
The paper says also that alarm Is
general and that the military and
naval forces are under arms night and
day.
King ManueJ is at Bussaco moun
tain, near Ooimbra,
The government is greatly disturbed
over the intense aeitivity of the Re
publicans in preparing for the general
elections next Sunday.
FIX II AISMS STORJOU
The candidates for office have en
tered every constituency in the coun
try. The authorities have searched the
homes of a number of Republicans and
have found stores of arms and am
munition.
It is known that a quantity of rifles
and revolvers are being smuggled into
the country along the Spanish fron
tier, and that the Republicans no\\^
are well armed.
No explanation has been vouchsafed
by the government as to why It con
siders the papal nuncio at Lisbon,
Mgr. Dr. J. Tonti, objectionable. The
seml-offlolal communication published
Saturday said the Portuguese charge
d'affaires to the Vatican had explained
the situation to the pope.
Despite the silence of the govern
ment It is understood the trouble be
tween 1 It and Mgr. Tonti had its origin
in the. campaign of clericals following
the government's censuring the arch
bishop of Braga for suppressing a pa
per without submitting the matter to
the government, and for the alleged ac
tion of the Vatican In placing diffi
culties in the way of the appointment
of an ambassador to the Vatican.
