THE TRACTION COMPANY,
An Amended Bill Introduced I'm the
House Today.

The amended bill of the Washington
Traction Company was introduced in the
House today and will be referred to the
District Commissioners for hearings and a
report. The object of this bill is to provide
tric car in the heart of the city and ride
over any Of the suburban electric railway
lines for one fare and without change cf
cars. To accomplish this it is proposed to
construct a street railway to be operated
by the underground electric system over the
following route:
Beginning at Massachusetts avenue ex-
tended and Loughborough road thence
along Massachusetts avenue to r street to
18th street; also beginning at Park street
Mount Pleasant. on nth street EXTENDED,
thence south to Superior street, thence
southwest to Ontario street, thence south
to Florida avenue. thence to 11th street,
thence south on 18th street to Connecticut
avenue to IL street, east on ii street to
18th street, south to B street east on Is
street to 9Th street. north to Louisiana ave
nue., ID street, and Indiana avenue TO c
street. thence to New Jersey avenue, thence
south to b street. east on B street to Della
ware avenue. thence south on Capitol
Grounds to the present terminus of the
Metropolitan railway.
Also starting at 18th street and Kenesaw
avenue along that avenue into the Zoologi-
Lowell street and connecting with the
same line at 18th and Park streets.
An important feature of the bill is a
clause which gives all suburban railways
now built or hereafter to be const ted the
right to make a traffic arrangement with
this company whereby their cars can enter
the city over this company's tracks without
transfer of passengers and for one fare.

BROKE ITS BARRIERS
Bursting Of a Big Reservoir in
Idaho.
TEE WHOLE COUNTRY UNDER THEFLOOD
Settlers Flee Before a Mighty
Wall of Water.
CAUSED BY WARM WEATHER

BOISE CITY. Idaho, March 15.-News has
reached this city that Indian Creek reser-
voir has broken it's rocky barriers and is
sweeping down upon ranches and villages,
carrying destruction and ruin in its path.
This reservoir was constructed of solid
masonry at the head of Indian creek, and
was heretofore thought to be a veritable
Gibraltar. Hyde & Jackson, New York cap
ltalists, built the reservoir as a water sup
ply for an orchard farm of 640 acres tina t
was recently set out in Idaho pruneS, and
bonded for $4,000. The reservoir covered
5O0 acres of land, and was said to contain
water sufficient to irrigate many thousand
acres. 1t cost $4,000.
The country between Rysuka and Cald-
well is all under water Every railroad
bridge between Nampa and Rysuka is wash
ed out and many miles of railroad tracks
submerged. which will prevent trains from
running over the Union Pacific short line
for many days.
Inc dam broke about noon, and messen-
gers were sent at break-neck speed on
horseback to warn settlers and urge fam
llles to hasten to places of safety. A
mighty wall of water came sweeping down
Indlan creek, bearing on its bosom horses,
sheep, calves. barns and farming utensils,
and submerging wheat farms.
citizens of Nampa, a little town on the
snort line, saw the approach of the de-
vastating waters, and fled to high ground.
soon all the lower part of the town, in
Guiding the railroad tracks was under
water from five to twenty feet deep.
Fifty houses at least are ruined and many
families are without shelter and bedding.
Merchants are loaning blankets to desti-
tute families and provisions are being fur
nished to those in need.
IL Is reported here that two men were
drowned, one while attempting to save his
property and another who rushed to his
assistance.
The cause of the disaster was warm
weather. coupled with heavy rains, which
caused rapid melting of snow in the noun
tains. Snake river rose eight feet yester-
day, fact unparalleled within the men,
ory OF the oldest inhabitants. This part
OF Idaho has had the heaviest fal of snow
this winter known for many years, and,
melting rapidly, it filled the creeks and
burst the dam.
Manager Clark was telegraphed for and
went as fast as possible to the scene of
disaster. So far Mountain Home reservoir
is safe, but fears are felt that it will share
the fate of Indian Creek reservoir.

THE CURRENTS RESPONSIBLE.
Lieut.. Lyman Tells What Caused the
kearsarge Wreck.

Lieut. Lyman, the navigating officer of
the Kearsarge, which was wrecked at Rom
cador reef, was in Washington today at
his home on Q street. He is reserved about
discussing the loss of the kearSarSe, as
it is the subject of official inquiry. lie SAID
to a Star reporter. however, that a false
impression had been made by publications
alleging that the taking Of observations
was neglected. 'AIl observations" he said
were taken and duly recorded to the COM
manding officer with proper lecommcrda-
ton, and not only were no usual preCau-
uunS neglected, but extraordinary care was
taken. had the charts been reliable TIE
reef would have been passed in safety, but
the current instead of being northwest was
to the southwark and east. We were run
ming by chart about nifty years old, made
by a British officer, and the sailing iuStruc-
tons agreed with the chart. The accident
would have been avoided mad greater speed
been made, as suggested by the navigating
officer, but economy of fuel led the com
mandIng officer TO decline greater speed
there being apparent no pressing neces-
sity for ii, if the charts were correct. The
recommended ton of greater speed was made
by the navigator as an extra precaution
and was not followed as the necessity for
il was balanced by the desiraDjlity of
economizing fuel The prime cause Of the
disaster was the inaccuracy of the cha RI
to current. A faster vessel or an ac-
curate chart would have rend cred the acci-
dent impossible. While the charts show
nothing of the Sort the currents in that
region are variable and unknown, except TO
local nayigators."

NAVAL ADDITIONS.
Seven Vessels VIII shortly Go Into
Commission

The navy will receive a number of impor-
tant additions within the next few months
Present prospects are that seven vessels
will go into commission for active service
between now and the 1st of May. These
are the Atlanta and Alert of the old navy
and the Columbia. Marblehead, Montgom-
cry, Raleigh and Cincinnati of the new
navy. 1t is expected that the Atlanta and
Marblehead will be ready for service by
the 1st of April at the latest. The Column
bia and the Alert will probably be the next
in order of availability
The manning of these vessels is a serious
problem to the Navy Department. which is
lightened to d slight extent by the relea Sc
of the crew of the wrecked Kcarsa-ge
Many of them will require large number
of sailors to give them their full compile
ment especially a ves2a like the Columbia
which carries nearly 5sU men all told. The
Columbia, which VIII be Temporarily at
tached to the home station is now in con-
ditfon for service, and this week the re-
naming officers to be aSSigned to 1er will
receive their orders to report for dutv
capt. sumner will be in charge and will
have the honor of flying his pennant over
the tafrail of the first vessel with three
screws in our navy.
The Raleigh at Norfolk and the Cincin-
natl at New York will be the first ships
Duiit Ior the new navy at our navy yards
ana under government supervision since the
days of the old wooden tubs. They are to
join the home station early in April The
Atlanta, whose condition last summer Gre
ated a scandal and came near resulting in
the court-martial of several officers for
their carelessness in allowing the ship to
become seriously injured, is about ready
at Norfolk and will he commissioned on
April |. Capt. Bartlett has been ordered to
command her. AS soon as ready she will
be sent to GreytoNn, Nicaragua to look
after American interests. Her last cruise
was to that port, and her delay in going
there resulted in the summary detachment
of Capt. Higsinson, who was then in COM
mand.
1t is estimated at the Navy Department
that 100 men will be needed for the seven
ships named. AS the details have been
made up the Columbia has 800 men. the
Marblehead. 22J; the Raleigh %: the At
lanta. 229; the Montgomery, 22J, and the
Alert, III. 1t is impossible to make addi-
tional enliStmentS, as the number allowed
by law has been already reached. Each one
of these vessels requires full complement
OF men, but the number to draw upon will
not admit of all being commissioned with
the number they should have TO properly
man them. Tie crews of the Machias and
Cdstine Will be transferred to some and the
receiving ships drawn upon to make up the
rest Tie Columbia will probably be 100
men short when she is commissioned and
the Atlanta will suffer likewise.
