THE RIVER \ SEA.

The Town of Metropolis Largely Inun-
dated and Alarm Exists at Many Other
Points.
Metropolis. IL, March 25.-This city
presents a sorry appearance in conse-
ouence of the flood from the Ohio.
The river at this place is one vast sea.
The overflow extends from Fillmore
street TO below the Bayou on Catharine
street from Second street down TO Me-
tropolis from Second 10 Ferry, where
the water spreads to Market. Then il
goes farther out until il reaches Third
street. There are not TO exceed twenty
five dwelling houses in this entire dis
trict where the occupants have not been
driven out by the waters. Fences ana
outhouses are all gone. The Southern
Hotel and about a dozen other houses
are wrecks.
Quincy. H.. March 26-The Missis-
sippi al this point registers Is feet .
inches above low water mark, rise
of five inches in q hours. The low
lands are submerged and many farmers
on the Missouri side cannot get 10 the
CITY. The government weather bureau
has sent warning that the river viii be
Il feet by Saturday. So lar the water
has offered the railroads no Interior
ence. but it is probable that 1t will IN
a few days. The tracks of the St Louis,
Keokuk and Northwestern between
here and KeOkuk are being rapidly
raised in the low places. The officials
say the tracks will stand rise OF Is
inches more before their trains viii
have 10 be taken of.
Virginia. H.. March 26.-The San
canon and Illinois rivers continue 10
rise rapidly. having risen two or three
inches daily for the past TWO weeks
The high water marks Of former years
are passed and the situation is growing
alarming. Many families have vacated
their homes on the lowlands' going 10
the bluffs for safety. The Illinois river
is 2S inches below the 1892 nigh water
mark. and only six feet below the dis
astrous food OF 1914. The mayor OF
Beardstown has called a meeting to de-
wise WAYS and means 10 protect the
Reardstown- Frederick road which IS
now threatened with destruction.
Memphis. Tenn. March 26.-The
weather bureau announces another de-
cline in the Mississippi river at this
point. a fall OF Of in p hours, being
the result of this mornings reading or
the gauge. For the third successive
dav the sun came out brightly. no
breaks in the levees have occurred and
on the whole the overflow situation IS
most encouraging. In the opinion Of
many river experts there IS q chance
that the river will continue to fall,
and that refugees may be able 10 re
turn TO their desolate homes in three
weeks.
Prairie. Du Cheen. Wis. March 90
The ice is running so swiftly in the
Mississippi that it is impossible TO close
the pontoon bridge at this point. and
east and wsst-bound passenger trains
are stalled.

SAN FRANCISCO: The following from
the Associated Press correspondent at
Honolulu was received on the steamer
Belgic Tuesday:
The arrival of the steamer Mouna, from
San francisco, due here ON the 29th, means
much for Hawaii In official circles it is
generally understood United States Min
lister Sewall will carry out the instructions
received in the last mail, said to be to this
effect: "If the Mouna brings word that
congress failed to pass the annexation
treaty, Minister Sewall is to declare pro-
tectorate and raise the American flag"
The American minister has had fire.
quent consultations with President
Dole within the past week, and it is be-
lieved they have agreed on this pro-
gramme. The general impression here is
that congress has decided to let the matter
OF annexation go over until the regular
session The intervening months would
be long time for this country to wait in
view of the attitude Of Japan, and Secre-
tary Sherman believed d protectorate by
the United States the only way to prevent
possible hostile action on the part of the
japanese.
As soon as the Mouna arrives it is under
stood the United States minister will notify
the government of his intention to raise
the American flag. Diplomatic etiquette
will allow day or two for an answer. and
it is believed everything will be in read-
ness to declare protectorate Monday,

WHOLESALE ARRESTS
AMERICAN ELUEJACkETS PER
SECUTED BY .HAWAliANS.
Popular Outbreak Is Feared at Any
Time-Citizens of the Hawaiian
Capital Consider the Situation as
Very Serious-Other Items.
News from the Islands

Honolulu harbor is dotted with British
japanese and United States war vessels
and more British and japanese vessels are
expected daily. In semi official quarters
it is reported quiet, but the impression
among citizens is that the condition of
affairs is very threatening, and that a pop
ular outbreak may occur any time, when
international interference from the ships
in the harbor will be the occasion of COM
pications. The stream of Asiatic laborers
is still pouring in, each shipload causing a
fresh outbreak of feeling among the diff
ferent factions.
The immediate cause of alarm is the fact
that the United States bluejackets are bit
terly hostile to the Hawaiian police, who
exercise almost military rule. The British
and japanese sailors are not molested, but
American bluejackets are constantly ar
rested as deserters without cause and an
noyed in every conceivable way. Heavy
rewards have been offered to the police for
arreSting United States naval deserters,
which has caused wholesale arrests of men
of the American fleet.

order exempting draw poker from moesta-

close all places where stud poker. faro

but not to touch the harmless little game
Of draw In explanation the inspector
said he regarded draw poker as Oh par

tiddledywinks. Any one can gamble with
those games if he chooses, the inspector
said, but they are not real gambling

The Philadelphia Record on Monday

of it is to be imported from Germany. The

Cattlemen Protest.

The detention of cattle at Pine E,cco
Agency by Agent Clapp is about to deyeon
into hotly contested legal fight. AnswerS
in twenty three cases were filed in the fed.
eral court at Rapid City by the ATTORNEYS
for the cattlemen in that city. The ,iobt
is not made to get out of paying the ran.
som money of 81 a head. but rather to nnt
an end to all future corralng of cattle ON
the reservation. The boundary line hp.
tween the reservation and the ranges is
surveyed. but is imaginary as far as wan.
derlng cattle are concerned. The cattle.
men contend that if Agent Clapp is srs-,
tanned by the courts there will be nothinr
to prevent repetition of the roundup this
spring. 1t would be impossible for the
cattlemen to keep their stock, some of il
from drifting during the winter storms
onto the reservation, or, worse vet. there
would be nothing to prevent the Indians
from driving the cattle across the line into
their possessions and then holding them
for ransom. On the other hand, the IN
dians say that each year their range on the
reservation is eaten by the stray cattle
from across the line. 1t is question of
great interest to the stockmen.
