From Floods.
MANY CROPS ARE DESTROYED
Colorado Sends TIdings of Further De-
VISITATION by High Water Railroad
Property Badly Damaged.

PORTLAND, June 2.-The food In the
Columbia continues to increase and In
dicatIons are that the worst Is yet to
come. Reports show that the river Is
again rising about one foot in twenty
four hours. The river is more than
foot higher than ever known, and the
damage will be immense. The fertile
bottom lands along the river from the
Rocky mountains to the sea, distance
OF 600 miles, are all inundated. Crops
are ruined, houses washed away and
stock drowned. The flood has come
gradually, which has given residents
an opportunity to move their household
goods to places of safety, and In most
instances stock has been driven to
higher ground. For miles and miles
along the river the water has risen
over the tops of telegraph poles.
Along the Union Pacific from this
city to Umatilla for about twenty miles
the track is under water. They have
established a steamboat service, which
enables them to carry mail and passen-
gers. The Northern Pacific does not
attempt TO operate Its line between
this city and Goble, distance of forty
miles, but makes connection by large
transfer boat. In this city the water
has risen into the base ments as far
back as Ninth street, and more than
half the elevators in the city have
stopped for want of power.

LYNCHING AT COLFAx
Hill Taken From the Jail and
Strung Up by Mob.
PARKER'S TRIAL IN PROGRESS
About One Hundred Masked Men Went to
the Jail and silently and NoissIessiy
Took the Prisoners.

CoLFAx, June ed Hill and J. F..
Parker were lynched here at l O'Clock
Yesterday morning. The mob, consist
Ing of about so men, with masks and
white caps, appeared suddenly and
noiselessly at the jail and called to the
jailor, saying they had a desperado
prisoner whom they wished to place in
the prison for safe keeping. The Tailor
came out, whereupon two huge revolt
vers were thrust into his face and he
was commanded to produce the KEYS.
As he hesitated several men seized and
overpowered him. Having secured the
keys they hurried to HIPS cell, tuck
him out, placed rope about his neck
and swung him on from a window.
Simultaneously Parker was treated In
the same manner. The mob ther opened
all the cell doors and two prisoners,
John Price and Frank Trigger, escaped.
Ed Hill was 81 years old and lived
with his parents near Garfield, for
several years. With Champ Payne and
Charles MCGOWAN aud Samuel MCGOWAN
he was accused of the murder Of Lang
ford Somer', November s, 1892, at Gar
field. The young men were drinking
in Lee & Morrill's saloon and dIsputiug
over the question of the legality of the
incorporation of Garfield. Somers, 2
blacksmith and formerly town marshal,
took part In the discussion and after
they had left the saloon he rejoined
them. In fight that ensued 6omers
was wounded with knife and died
thIrty-nIne hours afterward. In the
subsequent trial the theory of
the defense was that Somers struck
the first blow and that he died of cor
rosive sublimate poisoning while under
treatment of the doctors.
Papye YVES tried in June, 1903, aud
convicted OF mauslaughter. The case
IL now on appeal to the supreme court
to be heard July IL, and he IL out on
ball.
Samuel MCGOWAN was tried in June,
1903, convicted OF assault and battery,
and sentenced to six months In jail. He
appealed, but later died of iniamma-
ton of the bowels.
To avoid expense Charles MCGOWAN
pleaded guilty to assault and received
a sentence of three months In jail.
Ed Hill escaped just after the 6ght
and was captured at Phoenix, Arizona.
While awaiting requisition papers from
this state he escaped from the jail
there. Some weeks later he surrend-
cred ard returned to Whitman county
for trial. A change of venue was taken
to Columbia county, where the trial &C.
CURED, beginning March 10, lasting 80
days, and resulted In verdict Of as
sault and battery. Friends of Somers
expressed great indignation and there
was talk Of lynching at the time.

TRAIN IN GREAT PERIL.
Story of the Great Northern Accident o
the Wenatchee River.

Story of the Great Northern Accident on
the Wenatchee River.
The Great Northern accident near
Wenatchee was one of the most re-
markable in the history of railroading
in the west and serious calamity was
aveited only by the vigilance and
promptness of the train crew. Con
ductor Ed FOLEY was In charge of the
train, with Engineer Jack Croak and
Fireman w. ziegweid in the cab. Both
the engineer and fireman were keep
ing sharp lookout as the train crept
slowly and cautiously along the Wen
miles an hour. Suddenly the rail on
the side next to the river sank under
the weight of the locomotive, which at
orce began turning over. The engineer
quickly reversed and put on air. AS
the engine went over the bank, the cab
aud boiler striking the water first, the
two men in the cab were pitched into
tie stream, clear OF danger and swan
ashore. The engine, bottom side up,
went out of sight in the raging river.
The forward end of the baggage car
went over In the river and the car was
held in that position by the brakes on
the coaches until the baggage was
safely carried out. Then the coaches
were cut off and run back by hand 10 a
place of safety. Released from this
support the baggage car went down
into the river leaving only a corner
visible. A thorough knowledge on
Engineer Croak's part regarding the
condition of the road and previous
study of all the weak points, combined
with his GOODNESS, quick decision and
instantaneous action, prevented the
total wreck of the train aud proba bly,
loss of several lives. Fireman Z.eg'
Yields pocketbook and watch were IN
in his vest under the seat which floated
away. The pccketbook, containing $50

MT. Pleasant Baptlsts ut North yakima
Said Unkind Things.
NORTH YAKIMA, June 2.-Yesterday
unexpectedly ended the session of the
Mt. Pleasant Baptist association,
which terminated in a lively discus
sion. Some time since the church in
this city split on the alien immersion
question, the sLandmar kers,' those
opposed to receiving as members Of the
Baptist church any persons who had
been immersed by other denomina-
lions without reimmersion, withdraw
ing and forming a new organization.
Yesterday this new organization APP
piled for Ambulance to the Mt. PLEASANT
association, but were refused. This
caused much dissatisfaction among the
delegates, who favor making alien i'm
mersion a test of membership in Bap-
fist churches, and some rather heated
speeches were made, one by Moore of
Dayton being directed at d. d. Roger
of Seattle, whom he accused of try
ing to ''dictate." More withdrew from
membership as delegate, as did Jones
of Roslyn and Cook of Dayton. Day

place of meeting next year, the date

BOSE, Idaho, June 2.-The supreme
court yesterday handed down cis-

against G. Bunting & Co. The suit was
to compel Bunting to take $4,000 OF
Bannock county bonds. According to
the agreement, Bunting had reserved
the right to pass on the legality of the
bonds. The court decides in favor of
Bunting, holding the bonds invalid be-
cause the question was not submitted
to vote of the people. The bonds
were for funding warrants, but as they
would be issued before the warrants
were redec med, the debt would be In

WASHINGTON, June 2.-lf Colorado peo-

pie Greek strikers without application
In due form from the governor or legis.
lature, they will be sorely disappointed.
Although NO applications for federal In
PREVENTION have yet come to the war
department, they will be absolutely
without result If they do come. The
reason, as explained at the department,
is that there is no authority to be fourd
in the law for federal action The Is
sues involved are regarded as purely
state, and not national, in their present
aspect. The suggestion that the ma
tional government might intervene be-
tween Governor Waite and the sherIff's
forces, under cover of section 5000 of
the revised statutes, were soon disposed
of. That statute was framed in recon-
struction days to permit the national
government to 60 Into state and pro-
tect any Of its citizens when they were
denied protection by their own state
officers. The opinion prevails at the
war department that If Governor Waite
violates the law he can and will be re-
strained by the state judiciary, and
they are looking for the acts of such as
a termination of the present difficulties.

Fort SHERMAN, Idaho, June 1.-The
troops, upon their return here from
Wallace, were astounded to find the

deep in Captain Prices quarters.
Never, within the memory of anyone
stationed here, has the water reached
its present hight. The entire reserva-
tion is flooded, communication with the
different departments being main.
tanned by boats. Orderlies enter the
officers quarters in boats to deliver
messages. The ground floor of the
hospital is covered with water to the
depth of a foot. The lake rose over
the bank in half dozen places, food
ing the parade ground, except small
space near the flag staff, where the
guard tents have been placed. The de-
tails for guard have to leave the COM
pany quarters in boats, and guard
mounting is held near the Flagstaff on
the strip of ground still above water.
The average depth OF water in the
posi- is from three to four feet. The
guard house is submerged to the depth
of six feet, and the water extends al
most to the steps at the head of the
sidewalk near town. Boats are in
great demand for visits to the canteen
and in the evening to get to town.
Today the water fell fully two inches,
and it is believed the high water mark
has been reached, one that will not be
approached again for many years. The
unusual hight of the water in the lake
during the past winter was one of the
potent causes of the present food.
Target practice will have to be sus-
pended until the ranges come In view
again, at present six feet of water
flows over them. Spring floods will
ever after this be a menace to Fort
Sherman. Many buildings and much
property have been damaged by water.

The Crisman and Salina mining camps

impossible.
Fifty bridges between here and the
mountains have been carried away.
The towns of Copper Rock and Sugar

BoNNER's FERRY INUNDATED


Buildings Floating In the Streets and
People Camping on the Hills.
SPOKANE, June 1--Mr. Ryan, brother
of Superintendent Ryan, of the Great
Northern, arrived In this city last night
from Kalispell.
Mr.. Ryan rode on handcar portion
of the way, walked many miles, staged
1t wherever possible, hired team and
drove, made several miles In boat and
finished up his journey on the Spokane
& Northern.
He says the entire town of Bonner's
Ferry is inundated. The largest por.
tion of the buildings are standing in
seven feet, and few in four feet of
water. Logs and driftwood are floating
through the streets, smashing windows,
and In many instances heavy timbers
are dashed against buildings with the
force of battering ram, demolishing
the weaker structures.
Many of the houses and stores are
floating around bottom side up and a
number have been swept away. The
entire town is, in fact, almost total
wreck. The people are encamped on
the hills with what they could save be-
fore the water caught them. All the
mountain streams in Montana and Idaho
have overlooked their banks and are
doing great damage. An immense
amount of snow still remains in the
mountains and It will be at least q
week before the foods begin to subside
