RAINS CAUSING RUIN
Storm Extended From Rockies to
AlIegheaies Damage
in St. Louis.

ST. Louis, Mo, June 29.-This city
and vicinity IS the center of a rain
storm of unprecedented severity that
has prevailed almost necessarily since
Saturday morning. According to the
local weather bureau reports, SIS inches
of rain fell here between 2:SO a, m.
Saturday and p. m. Sunday, and the
end is apparently not in sight. At
times the storm equaled a cloudburst
in severity.
The storm is the most widespread
that has been experienced in this coun-
try for many years, according TO the
weather bureau officials, extending
from the Rocky mountains to the Allie
ghenies. In Kansas, Iowa, Missouri,
Illinois, Indiana, Ohio and Pennsyl-
vania the rainfall during yesterday
and today averaged from one to two
inches, About an inch on the average
fell in the states north, While in those
in the south the rainfall was slightly
less.
Much damage, the total estimated at
about $250,000. resulted from the wind
that accompanied the rain. Last night
the wind attained a velocity Of almost
fifty-five miles an hour, blowing down
trees, telephone, telegraph and trolley
poles, and interfering with cOmmuni-
cation Of all sorts At least 1000 shade
trees in various parts of the city are
reported on the ground, From the
country surrounding came reports Of
destruction to crops and the washing
out of railroad tracks and bridges,
causing much delay u trains.

one Of the most disastrous floods in
the history of Alton, Ills, and vicinity
resulted today from the heavy rains
on Friday and Saturday. At 4 o'clock
this afternoon it was estimated that
10, 600 acres had been covered with the
overflow of Wood river, which is three
TO six miles wide. Most of this land
is either occupied by manufacturing
interests. or planted in crops. The
greatest single disaster caused by the
flood was the destruction of the plant
of the StonewaTe Pipe company at
East Alton. The loss is estimated at
$40 coo

LOOKS LIKE A WINNER
Strength Of Fusion Party in Ida
hO-HeitfeId Will Likely
Be Reseated.
Special to The HeraId.l

Martin Jacobs, state mining inspec-
tor OF Idaho, has been stopping at the
Arlington, and, in conversation with a
reporter, he said; "AT the conditions in
Idaho are favorable to the continued
supremacy Of the fusionists. The al
lance between the Democrats and
Populists Of our state is as strong to-
day as when it was first inaugural ted.
This means the reelection of Senator
Heitfeld when our legislature chooses
his successor next winter.
Senator Heitfeld's course in Wash
lngton has been eminently to the sat
isfacton Of the great mass Of the peo-
pie, and his reelection looks to be in
the nature Of a certainty. If the un-
expected should happen in the way Of
Republican victory, I think that ex-
Senator ShOup would be elected to fll
his old seat. If a Republican senator
were bound to be chosen no more &C
ceptabie man could be found than

KILLED IN HOTEL FIRE
Young EngIishman Perishes in

Of an InCendiary.


Kamloops, B. c., June 29.-About
midnight last night fire broke out in
the old ]. A. Maras store, next door to
the Cosmopolitan hotel, and which has
been unOecupied for some years. When
the ALARM was turned IN the whole of
the Maras building was ablaze and
was quickly setting fire to the Cosmo-
politan hotel. 1t was assisted in its
work of destruction by a heavy wind,
which fortunately blew across the
river. Had the wind been blowing
either east or west, Kamloops would
have suffered a much larger loss. Es-
timated loss is about IS, 600.
A guest of the Cosmopolitan hotel
named William Barlow, a young Eng
iishman, lost his life in the fire 1t is
believed the fire was incendiary.

 FROM INJURIES
J. E. GOODWIN, FOREMAN cHEMI- CAL ENGINE NO. i, SUCCUMBS
 TO STOMACH TROUBLE RESULT ING FROM STRAIN. |.

J. E. Goodwin, foreman of chemical fire engine No. 1, died vest terday afternoon at St. vincent's Hospital of injuries sus- tained recently while in discharge of his duties.

FREIGHT AGENTS
 LEFT LAST NIGHT
THE SOUTHEASTERN MISSISSIPPI VALLEY FREIGHT ASSN TRANS ACTED MUCH BUsINEss-cHAIR- MAN WILL ISSUE CIRCULAR.

The Southeastern Mississippi Valley Freight Association which had been in session at the Hotel Hillman since last Tuesday adjourned last night, and the members departed for their respective homes.
 Yesterdays session was the busiest and most important of the week, as action was taken on the reports of committees relating to rates in certain sections of the associations territory. But Chairman M. P Washburn stated that no details of the transactions could be made public until he promulgated them officially in circular form, and this. he said, could not be done until he had time to go over the work of the association, which would require several days.
 It is of interest to relate, however, that no change in rates affecting Birmingham were made. The association has nothing to do with iron and coal, the rates on those products being fixed by the southern iron committed.
 The freight officials composing the Southeastern Mississippi Valley Freight Association are not only experts In traf- fic affairs, but they make up as fine a body of men as will be found anywhere in this country. Every one of them ex- pressed the highest satisfaction with Birmingham as a meeting place, and the association will hold sessions here again from time to time

 Plantation Songs and Dances. ...... Clarke sousa's band was at the Jefferson last night. Along with it were Miss Maud Reese-Davis and Miss Dorothy Hoyle, two soloists of marked ability. The band pleased the audience. which was large. The soloists also pleased.
 The secret of the success of Sousa-beg pardon, John Phillip Sousa-is no secret at all It lies simply in his ability to compose music in long stride, galloping time-music that is realistic and of the kind that makes one feel like moving briskly in early autumn air. He can con- duct; but his leadership would never have made him famous had he not composed what the public wanted. Last night this was made equally as manifest as ever in the history of the band master. Of course, every number >on the programme was done sufficiently we'll to merit ap- plause and encores; but it was these en- core pieces which biased most. Each was one of his own compositions
 The most pretentious number on the programme was the overture "A Roman Carnival" by Berlioz. This was rendered in magnificent style. But what struck the popular chord of the audience more than any one other thing was the Plantation Songs and Dances" The medley of nearly all Southern songs of sentiment created considerable applause. It touched the hearts of the listeners in a peculiar way. The trombone solo of MT. Arthur Pryor the songs of Miss Reese-Davis and the violin solo of Miss Dorothy Hoyle were

Goodwin has received the highest praise and Miss Elliott has been commended for her re- markable versatility MT. Goodwin and Miss Elliott bring with them many old favorites. The entire stage production is also carried. As this play permits of magnificent dressing, Miss Elliott will display some remarkable creations of the dressmaker's and mlliners art wearing no less than seven distinct and seperate gowns each apparently more handsome and more beautiful than the other.

Taft Thinks American Soldiers
 Necessary in Philippines
MANY QUESTIONS ARE ASKED
He Says Filipinos Are Too Ignorant to Serve on Juries and Judge Sys- tenn Was Adopted-Several
 Provinces Peaceful.

Washington, February IA. Governor Taft of the Philippines today continued his statement before the committee on Philippines concerning the conditions in the archipelago with the intention of dis cussing the degree of tranquility in the pacified provinces, which. he said, in cluded all the provinces except Tabayas Samar and Batangas. Senator Lodge asked as to the means for maintaining tranquility. Governor Taft said that in June last year the commission passed an act organizing a system of judiciary for the entire archipelago, creating a supreme court of seven judges and creating four districts. On the supreme court bench there are three natives and four AmerI- cans. Of the courts in the district six are presided over by native Fflipinos and the others by Americans.
 Governor Taft said that Judge Ide of the commission had prepared the code of laws of the islands, and that the labor had been so severe that 1t had materially damaged his health. This code includes the treason act. There is no provision for a jury, as 90 per cent of the people are too ignorant to sit on a jury.
 Native Troops Not Advisable. Senator Culberson asked whether there Is any part of the archipelago the control of which could be trusted to native troops. and the witness replied that he did not think it would be advisable.
 Senator Burrows: Do you mean to say that the attachment of the natives for
 
 be safe to entrust the control of any sec tion to native troops with native of- ficers?'
 Governor Taft: "The presence of a na- tive regiment under the control of native officers, in my opinion, would be unwse." How would it be with native troops under American officers?''
 q have not the slightest doubt that with American officers the native troops would be entirely loyal"
 Senator Culberson questioned the wit ness as to the necessity of keeping as many as 3O,00O troops in the islands, and Governor Taft replied that Captain Allen estimated that with all the provinces pacified, 15,OOO American troops would be sufficient. For himself, he thought it would be desirable to continue small de-
 
 all over the islands for the purpose of preventing disorder and violence and serving as a moral restraint.
 People Going to Work.
 Speaking of the general condition of the pacified provinces Governor Taft said that in all those provinces the people are going about their usual avocations In one province not a hostile shot had been fired for two years.
 Senator Patterson asked how the peo- pie had been made peaceabe in the first place-whether this result had not been accomplished by first battering them with the military and then demonstrating to them by the acts of the commission the benefits of another method. The reply was that not only the civil government but the military forces had sought to impress the advantage of American rule and however the people generally, at least in some province. did not sympathize with the nsurrection, he would not at tempt to say.

DOG A GOOD ACTOR.
Takes Cue Like Person and Aids On
 Act Greatly.

"Effie". the little black dog which Coakley and Huestead use in the act at the Auditorium this week to such great advantage, has a peculiar history. For eleven years she has been a performer, and now. like person, she does not work when not feeling well, and takes her cue without having to be coached ip the least by either member of the team.
 Eleven years ago the dog was found near the stage door of theatre. in Cin- cinnati by Miss Heustead. who took a fancy to 1t and commenced training 1t for her act. The dog learned quickly, and when only about nine months old made it's first appearance on the stage. She made success at once and is now the hit of the act.
 The dog does not have to be told when it Is her time to work but like an actor she takes a cue given by Miss Heustead crossing the stage in front of the car riage.
 The applause the dog gives Mir. Coak- ley after his dancing was voluntary on the part of the dog and was done one night long ago without any training or coaching from either member of the team. If the dog is sick she will not dance. clap or do anything she does not wish to do.
