Fires threaten Wallace as troops rush to aid
Light rain offers slim hope as Governor orders militia and US troops to battle widespread forest fires across Idaho and surrounding states. Survivors report heavy losses, with fears of up to 100 dead in the region and towns like Troy and St Regis under threat. The Beau Champ incident details a trapped group near the Big Fork of the Coeur dAlene River, where several perished or were injured. Losses may total over 10 million dollars for timber and homes across Montana, Idaho, and Washington.
