WASHINGTON, May 12.-During the
Raum investigation today. Mr.. Rey-
burn, member of the board, examined
the record in the claim of w. w. Dud-
ley and said that there did not appear
to be any recent medical evidence OH
file in the case upon which the last GER
tlhcate was issued. DIR. Ingram, the
medical referee of the bureau, also ex-
amined the record and found no suffi-
cient medical evidence. 1t was not
usual to grant increased pensions of
this character without medical exam
ination. This certificate was issued on
the authority of the act of
Aug. 4, 1856, and the Ques-
tion involved was whether the
amputation was at the knee within the
meaning of the law. No special ex-
animation would have been necessary
had the exact facts been set out in a
former examination.
There was, however, a slip in the case
which was signed by DIR. Carpenter, an
assistant medical referee, stating the
exact location Of the amputation, and
expressing the opinion that the case
came within the act of Aug. 4, 1856.
This statement of DR.. Carpenter was
made upon the testimony in the case,
and does not appear to have been the re-
suit of a personal examination. DR..
Ingram did not think the case took the
usual course through the Office. The
claim was allowed during the time Mr..
Tanner was commissioner.

KANSAS CITY. May 12.-Another
heavy rain storm set in about o'clock
tonight, and in addition to this the
rivers in Kansas are rising and sending
a flood down. The Kaw is swelled with
an immense volume of water, has now
overflowed its banks, and is rupning
three feet deep over the stockyards of
the Kansas City packing house. The
Kingan c0mpany's packing house has
three feet of water in the basement and
work has been suspended. The Fowler
packing house is also in trouble, and
the hogs are swimming around in the
yards, as the water came up so suddenly
that it was impossible to get them out
in time.
The floods of water which are at this
moment pouring from the clouds will
probably send the Missouri above the
dykes and submerge Harlem, if that
village is not already under water. The
danger line has been passed. and all the
houses in Armourdale and Argentine
will be deserted at once by the people.
Reports from Kansas are meager, but
the signal service officers say that the
present rain is falling in Kansas, as
we'll as Western Missouri.
