AT CINCINNATI.
Steam and Electric Roads-Great
Loss Will Result.

Cincinnati, March 5.-The steam rail-
road and the electric line TO College
hill were closed on account of the sub
merged tracks today. The town of
Lockland, o., is inundated, and at
Cumminsville, in the northern part of
the city, the raging torrent is doing
more damage than the recent high
water. Houses have been moved from
their foundations All small streams
are swollen. The Miami and Licking
rivers viii certainly rise to swell the
Ohio river at this point, which is now
rising at the rate of seven inches an
hour.
The weather bureau states that the
rain is general from the Missouri val
ley to the Allegheny range, being
heaviest in Illinois. Indiana and west
ern Ohio. The river at this point is
expected to reach the danger lines
feet-by the rising of it's northern
tributaries. The rain is likely TO con-
tinue all night. The surrounding
country has been greatly damaged by
the overflow of small streams.
A landslide at Trautman's station
carried away part OF the Big Four
railroad track and covered other parts,
preventing any trains on that road
reaching this city. Anderson's Ferry
is submerged from surface floods; all
the river front houses are in danger.

worst ever experienced there

elimination, embracing so wide

He had practically loafed for two
days, and great things were expected
from him. Nobody was disappointed.
Breakfast out of the way, Jim threw

Corbett does not fancy road work.
He claims that it stiffens his legs and
impedes his rapid footwork, which
saves him so many blows.

has been as 10 the exact location of tie
general offices. The company has re-

objection to nearly every place avail

the general Offices are something ike

erS and so on, and that a great amount
OF floor space is required for the trans
action of the business. Then the de-
partment of the auditor necessitates
a big room, or rather a hall, for it is
too large to be called a room. and the
arrangement of the offices must con-
form to certain requirements.
All these bothersOme problems have
been solved. and the Oregon Short Line

"A LITTLE SNUG"
1t is a mild and not unpleasing eff
fusion The tone is a little SNUG and
goody goody, but kindly. Beneath its
smooth words, however. a most ser-
Gus purpose is observable. The refrain
of the discourse is not peace with all
men. but more protection. ExDeri
ence is of no use yet TO either Mr.. Nc
Kinley or the American people. They
have not yet suffered enough for their
economic heresies.
BLOWS FOR BRITAIN.

at the British iron and wooden indus
tries. and possibly Canadian dairy
products and lumber. 1t thinks, how
ever, that on broad. general grounds
there is not much room to regret the
reversion of the United States to high
protection which any how relieves

structive competition.

safe utterance and will doubtless COM
