st. Louis, June 1G.-The high water
is rapidly receding back into the lower
river level from the devastated dis
tricts of East St. Louis. All along
the river front a stream Of back water
is pouring into the river and daily
more ground is being exposed in the
flooded districts. The four companies
of militia which have for almost
week been assisting the police were
released. Long lines of refugees were
formed again in front of relief head
quarters, waiting for food and cloth
ing. Eastern railroad traffic is grad
ually being resumed from St. Louis.
The water has fallen to depth of six
inches at the relay station in East St.
Louis, through which all eastbound
trains must pass, and several lines
were able to run through from st.
Louis union station. The receding
water has revealed no bodies and it is

Shortly after midnight the bodies of

Colonel Numovics and the officers
then entered the room. Numovics
presented to the king form of abdi-
cation for his signature. The docu-
ment contained the statement that by
marrying "a public prostitute" the
king had degraded the throne and that
he must abdicate. The kings answer
was to draw revolver and kill Numo-
vics on the spot. Colonel Mischics
picked up the document and presented
1t again. The king waved it from him.
The officers then with their drawn re-
volvers fred hail of bullets and the
royal couple fell together to the

carried out the assassination appears
to have met with great resistance

window broken, as though the occu-
pants had tried to escape into the gar

PASSENGER RATE WAR ls on.
Cheap Excursion from Missouri River
Points to New England.

Points to New England.
Kansas City, June ia rush Of
outbound travel has been precipitated
by what promises to be the liveliest
passenger rate war that Kansas City
has known for several years. The war
began In Kansas City with the cutting
OF the round trip rate to indianapolis
to $40. Tickets sold for Sl4.50 for the
round trip between Kansas CITY and
Chicago, and $3.50 was the round trip
rate between Kansas City and st.
Louis.
The indications point to protracted
war with prospects for the cheapest
excursions known for years between
Missouri river points and extreme
eastern points in New England. with
correspondingly cheap rates to inter
mediate points. The competition was
started by the granting of cheap
rate for the Y. NJ. c. A. summer school
at Chicago. Then the meeting of the
Modern Woodmen at indianapolis was
made another excuse for cutting rates.
The Burlington followed the granting
of cheap rates for the summer school,
with an announcement of cheap rate
to Chicago and also q one-fare rate
from Chicago to points in New En-
gland and New York. The Chicago,
Milwaukee and st. Paul followed the
Burlington's cut with the announce
ment of cheap rates to indianapolis.

One Maud Ballard became sus.

the latter had been too intimate with
man with whom the former had
been living.
Finally one morning last week
Maud started out from her home
armed with Winchester rifle, went
to the place where the object of her
envy was stopping, compelled her
to come out of the Eouse and then
marched her some distance to the
head of a ravine branch, where
Maud deliberately shot and killed
her victim while the latter was on
her knees begging for mercy. The
murderer has been arrested and now

officers in the safely republican
city of Huntington, democrats
caused the arrest of Judge II. S.
Laliance on charge of going
within less than 60 feet of the
polls. This is desperate effort
to make capital of an unwitting

democratic workers TO lntimidate
and bulldoze.
1t is an attempt to return to the
dark days of the past in this CITY.
when life long citizens voted the
republican ticket with fear and
trembling, often meeting with
various assaults, when colored
men voted at the risk of their
lives, and hordes of brutal police
surrounded every polling place.
Good citizens condemn the ont

to commend such an attack.
