at Places Near BY.

PORTLAND, June 4.-Slowly but stead
ilv the waters continue to rise. Since
last night six inches have been added
to their depth. The only telegraph
communication with the outside world
is by way of San Francisco. The
Union Pacific steamer Harvest Queen,
which left Portland yeste rday for the
Cascades, was unable to make Roadway
against the swift current and was tied
up at Bonneville for the night. An"
other attempt will be made today.
From the mouth of the Willamette to
Cathlamet all farms are flooded. At
some places housetops are barely Wis
ible, and houses floating are common
sights. The town of Kalama is entirely
under water.
In this city many wharves along the
river front are swapping and cracking
in ominous fashion. Should they give
way serious damages will result, as on
all of them there are valuable goods
which can not be removed at present.
The gas company was compelled to
cease operations this morning. Three
DAYS DELAYED mail arrived yesterday
over the Northern Pacific route.
The river las risen since morning.
Hundreds of persons whose places OF
business are flooded moved out and es-
tablished new temporary quarters. In
the lower pert on of the city, where
poor people live, the condition Is de-
plorable AID much suffering will re-
sult. The to~boat Maria keeled over
at her mcorings, between Pine and Oak
streets. The crew aboard were awak-
ened by their sudden cold bath and
aoated out of the cabin windows. The
Maria is now In torty-five feet of water.
She is valued at $1,000. Central wharf,
200 feet in length, aoated out OF posi-
ton today, but was kept from getting
loose by heavy cables.
The temperature has fallen 10 degrees
at Baker City during the past twenty
four hours, and probably all over the
country drained by the Columbia and
tributaries, in which case, there is
possibility of cessation of the rise
from Wednesday morning.
The 4 BOD covers the entire business
portion of the city, except the south
ern parts of First and Third streets and
the western portions of Morrison and
Washington streets. The submerged
district begins at First and Salmon and
extends in a diagonal direction across
the city to where the river flows past
North Fifteenth street. Washington
street Is under water as far back as
Fifth, and Morrison to Third. The
water 10 now but Two blocks from the
Oregonian building on Sixth street.
There Is no cellar to business house
in the city but what is under water.
Elevated sidewalks have been built in
the retail district, but in the wholesale
district the water is too deep to permit
of building them. Besides, nearly all
the stores are closed up there or tenn
porarily moved back. Many firms
moved twice. The water on Front
street is six feet deep and fire engines
were unable to reach the dock at the
foot of Washington street today except
on fat boats. The steamer Stephens
plies regularly on Front street as fal
as Morrison.

In and Out of Spokane.

SPOKANE, June s. Passengers and
mail in and out of Spokane are obliged
to take roundabout routes to reach the
outside world. Eastern mail is re.
ceived daily over the Union Pacific,
which is the only line in operation over
the Rockies, and is transferred at Spo-
kane to the Northern Pacific, over
which line it is sent to Portland. Mail
and passengers can now get into the
Cnur d'Alenes. Take the Northern
Pacific to Ceur d'Alene City, thence up
the lake by boat to Cataldo, and the
Union Pacific train on the Mullan
branch to Wallace, Wardner and other
points. Trains run to Pendleton, but
in two sections. The water is running
over the bridge at Riparia. Passen.
gers take boat there to Grange City,
six miles down the Snake. and then &c
by rail the rest of the way.
The Spokane Falls & Northern runs
only as far as Marcus, owing to wash.
outs and the loss of a bridge. The
Great Northern is tied up for through
business, but a mixed train left last
night for Wenatchee. This city is al
present the eastern terminus of the
Northern Pacific, which is reported t
have trouble at Pasco, where the water
is up to the bridge. If such Is the case
the transfer will be made by boat
Steamers run between Kalama ani
Portland, the former city being lake
just now. Central Washington traffic
is unimpeded, and the road to Ceul
d'Alene City is also in good repair.
Telegraphic communication with thu
east is by way of Portland and Sal
Francisco, and dispatch to Montan;
point would be sent around that way

way of getting east by rail from Puget

Westminster the water overfows the
buildings and wharves, and as there
will be a very high tide tomorrow 1t is

flooded.
All the mills along the water front

that the dyke at Lulu had given away.
If this be true, the best agricultural
district in the whole Frazer valley will

hardly four years old, reaching
this age the coming fall. 1t is a
dark brown and is named "Mes-
merist," out of "Queen," and has
already a mark of 2:24. The little
animal is very toppy and will yet
make not only itself but also its
owner famous. The price, 5000, is
considered very cheap. Mr.. Leslie

How He Controlled Him.

One of the visiting statesmen" who went on to Washington to work for statehood for Arizona, relates the fol- lowing as having been told him by Governor Zulick:
 In the contest for the gubernatorial position at the time of Cleveland's in- auguration Hughes was supported by Zulick and Dunbar When urging the appointment to Secretary iioke Smith one day the latter expressed doubt about the tractability of Hughes.
 "Oh," said Dunbar, 'l will control him.
 Some months later, so Zulick relates, he met Hoke Smith on the street.
 What do you think that governor of yours has been doing, out in Arlzo- na?r-asked the secretary.
 "Why? What?'-inquired the ex- governor.
 "Why, that man Dunbar, who was going to control him, he HAS GOT IN JAIL.'
