The corps of Associated Press men that

probable from this fact that all the teleg-
raphers have ben hemmed In by the fire
in such a manner that It was Impoeslble
for them to reach their destination owing
to an easterly wind making It necessary
for thent to take a roundabout course ot.
several muee.
