|RELIEF IS IN SIGHT
IN FLOOD DISTRICT
Climax Has Been Reached at
and Around Cincinnati.
NO GREAT DAMAGE DONE

Tenement House District Along River
Front Inundated and East, West and
South Sides of City Surrounded by
Back Water.
| CINCINNATI, April 24-The climax in
the flood was reached here today, as has
been predicted by the weather bureau
The river rose more slowly during the
night than had been predicted. The
rate averaged only an inch per hour all
night, but stage of 56 feet was reached
before o'clock this morning. This is
feet above the danger line for business
sections and II feet above the line where
the water enters the tenement houses
known as Sausage Row" and "Rat
Row, along the river front. The city
is surrounded by back water on the east
and west, as along the south side, but it
is estimated now that the stage of 58
feet will not be reached here and that
the highest point will come today and
relief will soon follow.
The conditions on the Kentucky side
have not changed, and no damage there,
as well as on this side, is anticipated,
except in the suspension of work at
some mills and factories. OF course,
the RELIEF that is in sight here clears
everything for the 4S0 miles up to Pitts
burg. and the river men say that the
lower Ohio valley will not suffer so
much, as the tributaries below here are
not as high as those i'll the upper valley.
Weather Bureau Predictions.
At noon the river had touched 50 feet,
but the weather bureau still stood by its
previous predictions, and gave out the
following:
1.-The Ohio is falling at and below
Parkersburg. Between Point Pleasant
and Parkersburg it is stationary. At
Portsmouth it should come to stand
today. At Cincinnati it will continue
rising at the rate of one.tenth Of foot
or less per hour today and will reach
about 81. s feet by o'clock tonight. 1t
should come to stand here during
Thursday, but from the morning re.
ports it is feared that it will now exceed
the forecast limit of So feet by less than
foot The weather outlook is favora-
bic and the river situation in the upper
Ohio is encouraging"

An Excellent Combination.

The pleasant method and beneficial
effects of the well known remedy,
SYRUP OF FIGS, manufactured by the
CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP Co., illustrate
the value of obtaining the liquid laxa-
tive principles of plants known to be
incidentally laxative and presenting
them in the form most refreshing to the
taste and acceptable to the system. 1t
is the one perfect strengthening laxa-
tive, cleansing the system effectually,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
gently yet promptly and enabling one
to overcome habitual constipation per-
manently. It's perfect freedom from
every Objectionable quality and sub
stance, and it's acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
or irritating them, make it the ideal
laxative.
In the process of manufacturing figs
are used, as they are pleasant to the
taste, but the medicinal qualities of the
remedy are obtained from senna and
other aromatic plants, by method
known to the CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP

COMING CONGRESS
IN CITY OF MEXICO
Representatives of American
Republics to Meet.
PROGRAM IS OUTLINED

Commercial Reciprocity, a Great
Transcontinental Railroad Project
and International Arbitration Are
Among Subjects to BE Considered.
WASHINGTON, April "a - The com.
mission recently appoln ted by the pres
ident to represent this country at the
congress of American republics to be
held at the City of Mexico it is said will
meet in Washington soon for organiza-
ton. 1t is expected that a chairman
will be chosen, and there is some talk
that this honor may go to ex-senator
Davis Of West Virginia. There are a
number Of applications for the position
of secretary, but the choice of this Off
cial will be deferred until the organiza-
| tion is well along. The instructions to
| the American delegates will be given
them early in the autumn.
In the meantime they will do much
preliminary work in the way of sub
dividing the subjects likely to come be-
fore the congress. One branch relates
| to commercial affairs. Although there
| has not been much practical advance in
bringing about commercial reciprocity
between this country and the southern
| republics, there appears to be a strong
impression on the part of some of the
delegates that the coming congress will
pave the way to better understanding
on this subject.
The international railway project is
also under this head. and as Mr.. Davis
was member of the committee which
projected the line linking North, Cen
trail and South America, there is pros
pect that this plan will be revived and
given tangible aspect.
international Arbitration
A subcommittee of the American
delegates probably will be formed to
consider the principal subjects which
may come before the congress, the most
important being that of international
arbitration for the republics of the west
ern hemisphere. In Washington the
idea seems to be accepted that some
plan of establishing a permanent court
of arbitration will be adopted, and this
view meets approval with some of the
American delegates as we'll as the lead
ing officials Of the administration. This
action, however, involves some delicate
considerations in connection with pend
ing controversies between some of the
South American republics.
Owing to the number of Spanish dele
gates to the congress, the proceedings
will be in Spanish with a reprint In
English.

testimony amply sufficient to hold the
defendant, bound him over in the sum
of one thousand dollars, to appear be-
