At 1:50 : this morning flro was discovered in a stairway hull between llroady's grocery nnd Uronlcor's bak ery. People who entered the hallway before the flames gained any consider- ublo headway discovered that a firebug - bug had been at work. The Incendl- nry had poured coal oil on the wooden etairway in copious quantities bcforo applying the match. In a few minutes tlio building was In llnnics nnd was BOOH completely destroyed. People Stand Helpless. Klein's department store , adjoin ing the other building , next caught flro. The flamcB soon swept the building , the roof nnd brick wnlls crumbling from the terrific hcnt , nnd . the people wore compelled to stmvl Idly by nnd do nothing.

All Traces of the Fugitive Oregon Convict Are Lost. Seattle. July 10. The pursuit of Outlaw Harry Tracy appears to bo ' temporarily suspended. Sheriff Cud- iheo hns called in the guards from the southern suburbs , leaving only a sufficient number for careful patrol. It is believed that Cudlhco expects the convict , if he reappears at all , to ehow up In another part of the coun try. The posse that started from tlcnton with the bloodhounds returned after a fruitless search. As matters etand at this moment , no one knows the exact whereabouts of the desper ado. The chase is suspended for the .lime being. The moment ho shows his head men now waiting will be in pursuit. The marshal of Renton has cap tured three suspicious looking Indi viduals at Renton and it is thought that they may be three of the four men who met Tracy at Black river bridge Monday and walked through Renton in the convict's company. A diligent search is being made for the fourth alleged accomplice , who Is thought to be hanging around Renton or may have Joined the convict Ru mors are rife that the fourth man is none other than Merrill , but this is generally discredited.

AGREE TO TERMS OF RAILROADS Twenty Per Cent Increase In Wagea la Granted , but Union Falls of Recog nition Conference Result * In * Vir tual Adjustment of Differences. Chicago , July 10. The strike of the freight handlers is virtually settled. Meetings of faho strikers will bo held today to ratify the action taken last night by President Curran of the or der , but Inasmuch as he stated after n conference with the general manag ers of the railroads that ho had agreed to their terms because the majority of his men were "going back" on him , there Is llttlo doubt that the terms will bo accepted by the mass meeting. By tlio terms of the settlement the strikers nccc&t the scale of wages offered them by the railroads July 1. This schedule was emphatically refused by the strikers at the time It was mado. It offered nn average increase of 20-per cent The demands of the men would have- made an average Increase of 30 per cent. The railroads at the time of offering the Increase on July 1 said that under no circumstances would they recog- nlzo the union of the freight handlers to the extent of allowing the officers of the organization to make terms for the men with the olllcors of the rail roads by which they were employed. This was ono of the chief reasons for the strike , the men Insisting that the union should be fully recognized. The railroads have won a complete victory on this point. President Curran's Statement. President Curran of the Freight Handlers' union said after the meet ing wlth 4ho general managers that ho practically hod been compelled by his own men to accept the terms of the roads. "Two-thirds of them would have gone to work in the morning anyhow. " he said , "and it was simply a question of doing the best possible under the circumstances. The railroads agree to take back all the strikers who will apply for their old positions ay noon today. " The settlement of the strike came unexpectedly. The meetings durlus the day of the various committees with the general managers of the railroads did not produce much re sult , neither side making concessions. The proposition finally was made at a meeting of the executive council that the matter of an agreement with the railroads should be left with President Curran and President Bowman of the Federation of Labor , with full power to act. A meimlng was then arranged with a committee of the general man agers of the railroads , who had full power of settlement on their side. The result was that President Curran agreed to accept the basis of Increase offered by the railroads July 1. Teamsters a Factor. The action of the teamsters was a potent factor in settling the strike. They took strong Issue with the freight handlers and Intimated ve y plainly that no assistance could be expected from them , Inasmuch as tha freight handlers had struck against the advice of the Chicago Federation of Labor. The session of the executive council came to a sudden termination , and Presidents Curran and Bowman left for the meeting with the general man-j ( agers. When ho left this meeting President Curran was surrounded by crowds of the strikers , who had been waiting to hear the result of the meet ing , and there was great dissatisfac tion when It was announced that no settlement had been reached , but that meetings would be held in the morn ing , at which the results of the meetIng - Ing with the managers would bo made known. The displeasure of the men had a marked effect In bringing about the settlement of the strike. The agreement reached by Presi dent Curran with the managers last night must be ratified by the men to day , but there is only a very small probability that this will not be done. MITCHELL PREDICTS SUCCESS. President of Miners' Union It Confi dent of Victory. Wilkesbarre , Pa , , July 10.

Cheyenne , Wyo. , July 10. Tha Union Pacific is slowly importing non union machinists for its Cheyenne shops and now claims to have 27.5 men at work.

PRISONERS DYNAMITE JAIL. Wreck County Prison In St. Joseph , but None Escape. St. Joseph , July 10. James Bahlcs , Lcck Allen and James Murray , notorious rious prisoners in the Buchanan county Jail , wrecked the rear wall of the jail building with a powerful charge of dynamite and then made a fierce fight for liberty , but the guards were too quick for them and beat them back. Seventy-five pris oners are confined in the jail , but rncny of them made no effort to es cape , and those who were nervy enough to follow Baldes and his com panions were clubbed into submis sion. As If by miracle , no ono waa injured , although the explosion was felt for several blocks and every win dow In the court house , on the sldo next to the jail , was shattered. Baldes and Allen are under sen tence for highway robbery nnd Mur ray Is a government prisoner. They arc now chained face foremost to tbo floors of their cells. Other prisoners were apprised of. what was to happen about five mln- 1 utes before the fuse was lighted and on advice of the leaders of the plot they sought safety In their cells just 1 before the explosion occurred. The i Jailer was ot dinner in another part of the building. I The damage to the Jail and court house is estimated to be $1,500 , and j until repairs can bo made a large ex- I tra guard will bo necessary to re strain the prisoners. Developments In Corn Corner. Chicago , July 10. Developments in the corn deal were the failure of at least two expectations. One was that the bottom would drop out of the mar ket because of reported settlements with outstanding shorts , which would mean the abandonment of the deal by the bull traders , and the other that the screws would bo given n turn by the Harris-Gates people and tha price forced still higher. Neither happened and the price moved quietly along within a range of 2 cents , flua tuatlng between 80 and 88 cents. Crop Damage In Illinois. Springfield , 111. , July 10.
