Burgess was stricken by the heat
shortly after the arrival of the 500

amount Of baggage which came in on
II. the EMPLOYEES at the depot were
forced 10 WOsK extra hard to straighte
II out, and the work had TO be done in
the glare Of the sun. Burgess was rush
ing about with a baggage truck when
he suddenly gave a gasp and tumbl-d
70 the platform in an unconscious con
ditiOn. His companions thought that
ne hat succumbed. but he gas gotten

SEVERAL new IDEAS
Upton Introduces Some Novel.
ties in Rigging Of Cup
Challenger.

Glasgow, March 26-The spars and
rigging of Shamrock II are now being
prepared for setting up. They include
several new ideas. One is abolition of
the topmast and all topmast fittings.
She will have a single metal spar, the
largest eve fitted to any ship, measur
ing from step 10 truck 14S feet. This
saves the extra weight caused by the
necessary overlapping of the lower
mast and topmast and the weight Of
all housing gear and giving also, it is
thought, a stronger and better braced
spar.
Shamrock II will be unable to house
her spar in the event Of racing in a
gale of wind, but this has only hap
pened once since the American cup
racing began.
James Ward, managing partner of
the Messrs. Denney, builders of the
cup challenger, informed the cores
pondent Of the Associated Press that
he will certainly have Shamrock II
ready before the date fixed for her
launching, April 2. He is much struck
with the interest shown by the work.

RIVERS ON RAMPAGE
Grand Rapids Threatened with
Great Damage by Swollen
Streams.

Grand Rapids, Mich, March 90
Grand river tonight reached the high
water mark Of 1898, ~ feet 6 inches,
and is rising an inch per hour. The
Rouge, Flat and Thornapple, three
big tributaries, are pouring a swollen
food into the Grand. All factories
along the canals in this city have been
shut down and their easements are
flooded. A portion of the Ninth ward
is flooded. The Pere Marquette rail
road bridge is III danger, the water be-
ing nearly level with the stringers.
Hundreds of acres of low lands along
the river, north and east Of the city
are flooded, but as yet no buildings are
reported carried away from their
foundations, though many are partial
~ submerged.
Crocker Hook, a tributary Of the
Grand, north of this ely, is out Of its
banks and the big dam owned by the
Foster Winchester company at Slo-
GUMS, behind which was stored more
than 1, 1000, 900 gallons of water, gave
way and the roadbed, ties and track
were torn out for a considerable dis
lance. The water flooded the camp
and did great damage along the course
of the creek.
Grand Rapids & Indiana railroad
men are watching the river at Cedar
Springs very closely.

PADDED THE LISTS
Maryland Census Enumerators Ar
rested for Making Fic-
titi0us Returns.

Washington, March 27-Director
Merriam of the census bureau has re-
ceived information of the arrest of
three additional persons in st. Marys
county, Maryland, who, it is alleged,
are implicated in the census frauds
recently discovered in that county.
Two of these persons, Joseph Ching, a
lawyer of Leonardtown, and a former
enumerator named Goyter, were
brought to Baltimore this morning.
The charge against the former is that
of aiding and abetting enumerators to
make fictitious returns of the popula-
ton, while that against the latter is
padding the returns.
The investigation. the director says,
shows that Goyter had returned 1913
more persons than were in his district.
A telephone message received by the
director from Baltimore today says
the two men were released on 81, 500
bail, each. Another former enumer-
ato1 of the name Of Bowles was ar
rested in ST. Marys county, but ap-
parently has not yet been brought to
Baltimore.
This makes three enumerators in
all. of the nine who took the census in
st. Ma1ys county, who have been ar
rested. --.

scene met the mob and babe it to dis
perse. Spears and his companion
entered a traction car and the
mob surrounded it and demanded that
they be put off. The conductor at first
refused to comply with the demand
and the windows of the car were
samsheq. Later the two men were
ordered to get off the car.
The appearance Of the superinten-
dent was the signal for another out
break. The police surrounded the men
and while the riot proceeded Spears
fell s~enseless with a deep cash in his
jaw, inflicted by a stone thrown by a
member of the mob. The officers then
drew their revolvers and succeeded in
dispensing the crowd. They, too, were
assaulted, but not seriously injured.
No arrests have been made. :
Spears is charged with having re-
pudiated an agreement entered into
between a former superintendent and
the striking mill girls. The girls were
on a strike for eight weeks and re-
turned to receive an advance of from 8
to % per cent. The management dis
charged Superintendent Shoemaker,
who arranged the settlement, .disclaim-
ing all knowledge of the negotiations
and refused to grant the demand.
Another strike was inaugurated three

DANGER HAS PASSED

Grand Rapids, Mich. March 27-
Grand river is stationary tonight and
no further rise is looked for, unless
heavy rain should fall.
The river is 13 feet six inches above
normal, a rise of IA inches in the past
Fl hours. This was in part due to the
dams at Ionia and Lowell going out
last night and this morning. The
manufacturing plants along the river
flooded and in some instances the first
floor. Many residents have to evacu-
ate their homes on the west side Of
the river by reason Of the high water.
The Pere Marquette railroad bridge
still stems the flood, but the use Of it
has been abandoned. A portion Of
the island the city lighting plant is
more rise in the river would force the
plant to close down, by which the city
would be in darkness. The river above
and below the city in many places is
nearly two miles wide, flooding a
large area of farm lands.
A dispatch from Niles tonight states
that the St. Joseph river is Oh the
rampage and the dam at that place is
likely to 60 out before morning.
Lowell is flooded and in darkness
tonight, the lighting plant there being
shut down by reason of the dam being
torn away. At Ionia the situation is
not much improved and portions Of
the CITY are still inundated.
