THE MUDDY RAGING.
Kansas City Lowlands Threatened
by Floods.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, June 29.-The
dangerously high stage, The water is
the highest it has been since the great
flood of 1881, but it still lacks several
feet Of the record of that year.
Nevertheless much damage has
been done and much more
is feared, as the different river cities
above report higher stage of water
than that here. At O'Clock this even
ing the water registered three feet even
above high water mark or twenty-three
feet above standard water mark. The
water is rising steadily one inch an
hour and will probably rise two or three
feet more in the next day or two.
Portions of Harlem, across the river,
have already been submerged, and
twenty-five families have been driven
out of their homes. They have taken
their household goods from their houses

people have been made very nervous
by the. accounts of the disastrous
floods in Iowa, and they are TAX
who at present are in no danger have
moved out of their houses and sought
absolute safety iii various places where
the Hood cannot reach. All the farms
along the river are submerged and their
crops ruined. The embankment of the
Hannibal IL st. Joe road approaches the
river at right angles across from
this city. This embankment has
served as sort of levee and has
protected vast eXpanse of river bot
tom below it from the flood. Some
fears are expressed that the embank-
ment may not be able to withstand the

Racing association. In view of the
emergency the horses which have been
stabbed there have been removed to
places of safety.
On this side of the river the high
water has caused no food excepting as
it backed up the waters of the Kaw,
which empties into the Missouri at this
place. These back waters have sub
merged much of the low lands, and the
one hundred or more squatterS living
there have been Obliged to abandon
their homes. The water has

of similar character are expected in
the lower places of the town. Very lit
tie actual damage has been done as yet,
and no great damage is anticipate
ed, unless the Missouri waters
should rise more than three feet above
their presentStage. There is some dan
ger that the bridge of the Hannibal
& st. Joseph railroad, over which most
of the railroads gain entrance to :his
city, may not be able to withstand the
flood. The railroad company has hao
men at work all day strengthening the
approaches and guarding the piles, sc
that it now appears to be safe.
At st. Joseph. Mo-, and Atchison
Kan, floods are also threatening great
damage, and if the river continues tt
rise great destruction must result.

JAPS MUST RETURN.
The Rickshaw Men Cannot Ply
Their Trade Here.

WASHINGTON, June 29-Assistans
Secretary Nettleton has decided that
the two Japanese men imported by Mr.
Wolf, of Chicago, must be returned to
Japan. The facts show that Mr. Wolf
imported from Japan two vehicles
known there as jinrikshaas, and two
Japanese men to propel them by hand.
his intention being to place them in the
public parks of Chicago for the purpose
of hauling children free of charge. He
agreed to give the men $50 each per
month for period of six months. As
slstant Secretary Nettleton says the en-
terprise, as far as known, is new one
3 in this country, but can hardly be
called new industry. nor would it
seemingly be necessary to import
skilled labor" to propel jinrikshaas.

CHICAGO, June 29.-By all odds the
most interesting piece of news to the
world of speculation which has reached
Chicago from the East of late is
that which states stock ex-
change is about to be established here
in order 10 supplant Wall street
as center or medium of speculation.
Walter A. Allison, a Chicago broker, is
reported to have said that many local
millionaires are back of the project,
they having become wearied with the
methods of the New York operators.

Dress Affair.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 29.-Before he
left for Australia, John L. Sullivan
gave his opinion of Jim Corbett as a
fighter. Sullivan had been told he was
held by the public as responsible for the
wretched fiasco of that four-round spar

said: The public was disappointed
because l took my cue from Corbett.
This sparring bout was in his own town,
and l allowed him to cut out the pace.
He did not want any genuine scrap, SO
that settled it. You may tell him that
if he ever puts on gloves with ME again
he will be knocked out. Why, he can't
fight little bit. I'd knock him out
