The mine is on lire and attempts to rescue the entombed men have been abandoned. Two others were seri ously burned, in an explosion in the fan house following the breaking out of the fire in the mine, one of them so fearfully that he will not live. Nearly 200 men were in the mine when the fire started. Its exact origin is not known, but it is supposed that it was caused by a wire becoming short circuited and igniting the brattice cloths which serve to create drafts by means of which the mine is kept free from four air.

MAY HAVE BEEN INCENDIARY SECRET SERVICE MEN WORKING ON THEORY THAT FJBE WAS INCENDIARY. COSTLY ART TREASURES LOST PRACTICALLY NOTHING OF MIS. SOURI'S MAGNIFICENT EX HIBIT SAVED. Portland, Or., Oct. 15. The Mis souri State building at the Lewis and Clark exposition was completely de stroyed by fire last night.

It is estimated that the pecuniary loss will exceed $50,000, with no insurance save $5,000 on the are exhibit. The secret service agents are work ing on the .lieory that the fire was of incendiary origin, and that it started among a collection of packing cases stored just beyond the building await ing the period of dismantling of the Missouri exhibit. Lays It to Faulty. Wiring. Superintendent, of the Building Ed ward Cruinbaugh of Columbia, Mo., the only person within the structure at the time of the fire, is of the opin ion that Uie lire bad its origin in the same faulty electrical construction which has been the cause of the sev eral Incipient blazes which have oc curred in different buildings during the fair. Three-quarters of an hour after the first alavm was sounded the Missouri building was in ruins. That the flames did not spread to some of the adjoining buildings was due to the almost complete absence of wind and to the work of the firemen, who fought the fire desperately to save adjacent exhibit places. The only casualty was the serious injury to an electrician named\ Harry H. Jones, who in the early stages of the fire mounted the roof to cut the electric wires and who fell to the main floor,of the building. FEVER CASES INCREASE.
