RUN TO EARTH BY THE HUSBAND
He Suspected His Wife and Broke in
on Quiet Little Party of Four in At


Atlanta Letter in Macon Telegraph.
After being suppressed by the police in
order to patch up a temporary truce be-
tween the erring wife and her outraged
husband, the details Of very sensa tional
affair in which two well known young
railroad men who make their headquar-
tiers at the Kimball house. and q hand
some young married woman and her hus-
band living in a neighboring town forty
or fifty miles distant from ATLANTA, are
the principals, have finally come to the
surface.
The names of the parties appear on the
police records, but in Difference o request
of friends VINO hope the present truce
will prove lasting, they are withheld
from the public at present.
Last week lady in one of the swell
Whitehall millinery establishments re-
ceived a letter from the lady in
the case telling her that she would
be in Atlanta last Sunday and
requesting her to make an engagement
with one of the railroad men mentioned,
TO meet her at her house. Sunday after
noon the erring wife arrived on the Cen
trail train and went to the milliner's
house, which is in very respectable
neighborhOOd.
Later on the adventurous railroader,
whose position would warrant him in
aspiring to be the husband of some of the
bellies OF good society, and friend put in
their appearance. There were lust four
in the little party, including the pretty
little milliner of course. The tea things
were Just about to be set when there was
a startling rap on the front door II
seems that the out-of-town husband had
suspected his wi'es little picnic and he
followed her on the next train. Arriving
here he secured the services of a private
detective. When ne knocked at the front
door the detective was on the lookout at
the back of the house
The little milliner answered the knock,
but when she learned who her visitor
was she refused to let him In. She de-
clared his wife was not there, but the
husband declared that he had heard her
voice.

TRACKS SUBMERGED.
Railroad Operating Is Almost En-
tireIy SUSPENDED.

VANCOUVER, June 6.-ThOugh reports
from up river state that the water is reced-
ing at Westminster the Fraser River is
still rising, owing probably to very high
tides. At Westminster to-day the water
was fourteen feet above lOw-water mark
and four inches above 1925 flood record,
The current was 43 miles per hour, the
swiftest ever known.
Since yesterday the water has risen an
inch at Westminster. The swamp was
flooded again this morning, while the front
streets are covered with water to depth
of six inches. The swamp district, where
the mills are situated, is under water all
the time.
The fires at the electric-lght and power
house were put out again last night. and
the fire-engine is now employed continu-
ously pumping water from the station in
order to keep it below the furnaces.
In the Canadian Pacific Railroad yards
the track is covered three feet two inches.
During the night the telephone COM
pany's cable across the river was swept
away and has not yet been recovered.
Communication with Delta and South
Westminster is thus cut off
Two feet of water covers the Great
Northern track along the south side of the
river.
Reports from allup-river points state that
the water is still falling at the rate of an
inch an hour and at proportionate rate at
other points. 1t is impossible to estimate
the loss, but settlers will not lose as much
as was at first anticipated since the floods
will not be of long duration. and they will
be able to raise crops this year On the
flooded land.
No trains moved on the Canadian Pacific
for the last thirty-six hours. and it is not
known when one will be sent out, at any
rate not before next week. Passengers
who were sent out Sunday last have re-
turned, being unable to proceed further
than North Bend. and then had 20 be
transferred twice. The Australian liner
Arawa is due here on Sunday, and it is not
known how mails and passengers will be
sent East. but pro badly over the Northern
Pacific.
The loss to the Canadian Pacific Railway
will be much greater than al. first thought,
probably a million dollars.
A large force of men have been at work,
but it will be months before the track is in
as good shape as before the floods.
Canneries along the Fraser River are
all being strengthened. Many piles have
been carried away by the flood. Buoys
marking the channel were also swept
away. and new ones are now being put
down.
The steamer Sampson has just returned
from "relief" trip up the river. She as
sisted several farmers TO remove stock to
high land, and also provided feed for sew
eral. The captain reports that farmers
are lot disheartened, but many are now at
work preparing the high lands for crops.
The morning call., 1894-06-07

while the lower part of the draw is several
inches under water. Traffic is still going
over the Madison street bridge, and since
every other thoroughfars to the east side
of the river has been closed the travel on
this one bridge is enormous.
At 10 o'clock tonight the river here Is
stationary. and will undoubtedly begin TO
fall by morning. During ten hours to-day
the rise was only one-tenth of foot, and
reports from Eastern Oregon state that
the Columbia and Snake rivers are rapidly
falling.
The damage will be apparent when the
water begins to fall. Nearly every dock
in the city has been f1Oated out of place,
and when the water recedes they will SET
tie down and many of them collapse. Saw
mills are heavy losers by reason Of i'm
mense quantities of lumber and logs float
ing out.
As far as learned not life has been lost
in this vicinity.
Tonight thousands Of pleasure-seekers
are out on First, Second, Third and Fourth
streets in boats. Many business men in
the flooded district will be ruined. They
neglected to raise their stocks or move out
before the water reached them, and when
the demand for boats and wagons exceeded
the supply they were unable to secure as
sistance.
The Union Pacific is practically a wreck
between this city and Umatilla, distance
of 200 miles. Much of their rolling stock
is also damaged. In this city many en-
gines are standing in four feet of water.
and at The Dalles a number of engines
are all under water except the smoke
attacks.

ule, which made the rate on leaf wrappers

ators on both sides, as by agreement the
compromise paragraph was adopted pro
forma, with the understanding that the
subject would be considered later The
other joint amendments to the tobacco
schedule were adopted, and the Senate
passed to the schedule of agricultural
products and provisions"

tobacco schedule was adopted. 1t fixed
rates on filler tobacco unstemmed at 35

posed on cigars.
The next schedule was agricultural prod
ucts and provisions. All live animals
not specially provided for were made duti-
able by the bill at 90 per cent.
Dolph then proceeded 10 deliver the last
instalIment of his prepared speech, begun
some two months ago. He finished at 80,
after speaking about two hours. Dolph, in
the course of his speech, said Oregon
spoke for herself. She had set the seal of
her condemnation on the free-trade tariff
From advices he had received Oregon had
elected Republican Governor by from
10000 to 1900 plurality, two Republican
Congressmen by 1000 plurality, and the
entire opposition to the Republicans in the
Legislature was less than 20 out of total
of 90.
The debate was continued In a desultory
manner by GalIinger. Allison, Mills. White
and Kyle. A long discussion was precipi-
tated by Mills, and consumed most of the
