Tb.9 city la ab?u2e. A hig-h win
threatens the whole town. The tire
was caused by the explosion of a ear of
powder la the R!o Grande yards.
Colorado Springs, Oct. l. At 2:50
an explosion occurred in the Kio
Grande freight depot and fire at once
broke out. A cale has been blowing
all day and the entire town is threat
ened.
The fire is running all though the
section of t wn ea9t and north of the
Huerfano street viaduct and Verraijo
street.
The El Paso electric light plant,
umber yards, and miscellaneous build
ings and business houses for a block
asi will surely go.
The Antlers hotal appears to be
doomed at this time, and the Gazette
building, though built of brick, may
go.
The whole north and east sections of
the city appear to be doomed. The
firemen, both paid and volunteer, the
police force, and all the citizens are
fighting desperately.
The gale makes the work seem of no
effect. People are hysterical and
women sua cbiiaren are rucniDg
through the streets crying end weep-
in
3:20 p. m. The Antlers has cauirht
Ore. Toe fire is going north and east
through the business section. The
Newton Lumber company, just south
of the A oilers hotel, is burned out.
The piles of lumber make .t sure the
Antlers cannot be saved.
Vint volumes of sraoke
are pouring up from
behind the Gazette office acd that
place seems doomed. Business men are
moving goods out everywhere. Help
has been sent for to Pueblo, Denver,
and wherever it may be obtained.
DEMOCRATS SPLIT.
The Silver Question Likely To Cause
Trouble.
New York, Oct. 1. Tammany dem
ocrats profess this raorning not to be
disturbed by the action of the silver-
ltes last night in nominating a second
ticket headed by Henry George. They
say the movement will probably col
lapse before election day. VanWyck
voted for Bryan, they say.
.ine omcago platform democrat?, as
they call themselves, had a big meet
ing at the Union Square hotel last
night, when a ticket was nominated.
About 50 delegate) attended the con
ference, but the hotel was crowded
with enthusiastic shouters for Bryan
and the Chicago platform. H. Mc
Donald, president of the New York
bimetallic league, presided. The fol
lowing ticket was named :
For governor, Henry George; for
lieut. governor, Elliot Daufortb: sec
retary of state, Gideon J. Turker;
comptroller, James McDonough of Al
bany; treasurer, M. J. Caton, Erie; at
torney general, O L. Snyders of Erie:
engineer and eurveyor,.Tames A. Lee,
of Rockland.
Danforth was endorsed because of
his astivity in the cause of silver in
18fXj. The platform unreservedly en
dorses the Chicago platform, praises
Bryan, denounces boss rule, and de
mands free government of the Philip
pines. There will be a meeting at
Union Square hotel this evening to
arrange for the campaign. Prelimina
ry work is already under way.

Will Control the Steel Trade.
n ew i okk, Jet. 1. The gigantic
combination of the Il'-'aofj; Steel com
pany, the Minnesota Iron company,
and the Elgin, Joliet and Eastern rail
road company has been e-ffeottd, and
these corporations taday began opera
tion under the name of the Federal
Steel company. The trust has alto ab
sorbed the Lcrdin Stesl comnanv.
which was the successor to the John
son company. The combination has a
capital of $200,000,000, and the tremen
dous powers it Las obtained under its
article of incorporation ha startled
even Wail street, whu-h rc-
cail.-j nothins to rival it i-ince
the days of the Credit Mobolier.
There i. '.n fact, no branch of trade
and commerce, in:o which the great
trust may not enter. The Standard
Oil trust controls the cew trust ab
solutely. It is reported that stuck in
flation on an erormous scale will follow
in the wake of this new trust. Finan
ciers do not think it improbable, that
before the close of the ninteenth cen
tury, the great tru&ts controlled by the
Standard Oil company tay be united
under the expacsiv9 charter of the
Federal Steel company. Mostly ail the
trusts controlled by the Rockefellers
are organ "ed undor the pliant corpor
ation law of New Jersey.

Will Soon Be Ours In Truth
San Joan, Oct. 1. The Spanish
authorities are working day and night
In trdcr that they may be ready to
turn the government of the island over
to the American commander as soon as
possible. Two transports are expected
to arrive here Sunday for the purpose
of takiogon board 2 000 Spanish troops.
This will so reduce the Spanish e&r.
risoo that the island will be turned
I over to the American? as soon as they
depart
Gen. Brooke's troops are moving in.
They now occupy two thirds of tho is
land. Rumors of an uprising of natives
against the Americans in the Spanish
ioterlor are not credited in official
circles here. The only troubles come
from criminals who were recently re-
l'-a?eil in large numbers from the penitentiaries.
The Quarantine More Destructive
Than the Disease.
Jackson, Miss , Oct. 1. Late last
night another new case of yellow fever
was announced by the board of health
This makes a total of 11 cases in Jack
son up to. this morning. The continued
rigidity of the quarantine is daily in
creasing the gravity of the situation.
While the disease is not in itself prov
ing fatal to human life, the quarantine
la vrorRing wnoiesaie destruction to
business.
An early frost is the only hope for
the country this year.

CAMPAIGNING
Postmaster General Smith Will De
vote a Month to It.
Washington, Oct 1. Postmaster
General Smith will leave Philadelphia
Sunday night on a campaigning trip
through the west that will last about a
month. He will stop first at Omaha,
thence they will go to Tope k a, Denver,
and Colorado Springs, returning to
Omaha to meet President McKinley
aud other members of the cabinet on
tha 12th.
iards t Iloilo, Philippines, are grea tly
perturbed by rear of the insurgents
and the wildest rumors are in circula
tion regarding the action of General
Rios, governor of Visayas. Since the
surrender of Manila to the Americ ans
General Rlos has sect to Milano 600
additional troops and it is now supp .
ed that they have 2000 there, but t his
is believed to be an exaggeration.
Their preparatioos to resist the In
surgents are very feeble, and the Span
ish feel that they are helpless agai ar.
the natives. The Spanish gun boat El
Cano is out of repair and useless i imd
twosmaller ones there ure irteven worsu
condition.
It is understood that the native ne
groes in the other Visaya islands re
waiting to see if the Americans 111
take the islands. With this they
would be satisfied, but they wou' id jot
submit again to the rule of Spain .
Business men are showing the keen
est interest in the situation. M iny of
them have been here twenty ye Sirs or
more and are unanimous in theiir con
viction that If the Americans 3'.o not
take and hold the islands they rr;ill all
be ruined. Englishmen of expet-ience
among these people say they am docllo
and easily managed.
No attention is being paid to. th e rat

Washington, Oct. LThe program
arranged for the president trip west
is now outlined as follows;
He will le ave Washington oo the
morning of October 10, arriving at
Omaha on the -evening of October 11.
The president will leave Omaha for
St. Louis at ! o'clock a. m., October
13, going by way of Burlington, Ot
tumwa, and Keokuk, Iowa, where
short stops will be made, and St. Louis
will be reachel the next morning.
He leaves St. Louis ear'y the next
morning for Chicago arriving there
the 15th. He will( remain until the
19th. The president is due to reach
Washington on his return Oct. 22.
Stops may be" made on the way at Ter
re Haute and Indianapolis.
Kansas City and Minneapolis kept
the wires hot yesterday with invito
tions to visit these cities, but it is high
ly improbable that the president will
take either of them in on this trip.
No one but the president, members of
the cabinet, and officials directly
connected with the administration will
be on the presidential train, which
will go over the Pennsylvania railroad.
Another special train will go over the
Baltimore and Ohio road, carrying
representatives of the army and navy,
and the diplomatic corps, with -especially
invited guests.

New York, Oct. 1. The body of a
man was found In the North' River

of Doeshbaugh, the missing president
of the New England Loap and Trust
company, which failed last Monday
with liabilities and assets amounting
o five millions.
His accounts with the company are
said to be all right, but it is believed
that the financial troubles of the com
pany preyed on bis mind to such an ex
tent that he became temporarily de
ranged. ' While in this state it is
probable that be wandered to toe-river
