Tilden B. French, formerly Treas.
urer of HaTlilton County Ohio, has
been having an odd experience. He
owns considerable land in the suburbs
Of Cincinnati, and lately has been
building it up with houses. Recent.
ly he built, without knowing it, an
expensive house on a lot belonging to
another person, and had not the owner
of the land been a friend of his seri-
Gus legal difficulties would have follow
ed. The mistake came from the build
er mistaking the directions and put
ting up the house on the s9uth half
of a 1Q0foot lot instead of on the
north half. A BROTHER Of Mr.. French
has made a similar mistake in Gin
cinnati, and at last accounts it looked
as if he stood a good show Of losing
his new $4,000 house.

Kearney and Kearney had him arrest

was tried and found guilty, but Presi-
dent Polk pardoned him. Soon after
this numerous friends began to groom
I'm as candidate for president. He
accepted the abolition platform and
was beaten. When our civil war came
GA he was made a brigadier general
and put in charge Of the Missouri ter.
ritory. One Of his first acts was to
abolish slavery in that state. This
made General Grant mad and every
body else who lived there and owned
slaves, so he was reported to Mr.. Lin
coin, who annulled his proclamation
and ordered him to Washington He
was offered other commands, but re-
fused them and was retired from az
tive service. After the war he con.
oluded to build a railroad from Texar-
arkana to Ell Paso and got the state OF
Texas to give him a liberal grant Of
land along the entire route of 500
miles. He went to Paris with this
grant and agreed TO come back and is
sue bonds on it and get the United
States government to indorse the
bonds He got the money and built
the road, but failed to get the United

bonds. The French bondholders never
found this out until their money was
all spent. Then they had him arrested
and bound over to court to be tried for
fraud When the court came on he
did not appear, but forfeited his bond.

Denver, May 16-The strike situation
took an unexpectedly favorable turn at
noon today and the labor leaders made
the announcement settlement might
be expected within 4S hours. Soon af-
ter II o'clock, former Governor Coates
and the men who have been acting
with him in the conduct of the strike,
left labor headquarters in the Gettys-
burg building. 1t was announced they
would confer with the state board of
arbitration and possibly with represent
tative business men, with a view of
formulating plans looking to settle-
ment of the strike. Late this after
noon, the committee Of the Allied Prin-
ting Trades Council has arranged for O.
meeting with the Citizens Alliance,
and an effort will be made to find
peaceable solution of the strike situa-
tion. No more union men have been
called out since early morning.

HIGHER THAN FOR
TWELVE YEARS
The Rio Grande and Other Streams Have Become
Raging Torrents on Account of Heavy Rains
and Rapidly Melting Snow.
MUCH DAMAGE HAS
ALREADY BEEN DONE

The water in the Rio Grande is
higher than it has been for 10 years,
and those living cong the banks NJ the
stream are alarmed. The river has ov-
erflowed its banks at many places and
much of the lowlands is now under
water.
The water is over the banks on both
sides of the Corralcs bridge and the
lowlands there are now flooded. Near
Alameda the dixie which was built a
few years ago, has given way in a
number of places and the water is
rushing from the regular channel of
the river and through the breaks.
Much damage has already been done.
There are many weak spots in the
dkes from Alameda to Albuquerque
and these are showing the effects of
the strain. Should they give way
there will be great damage as far as
Albuquerque. The soft sandy banks
Just south Of Albuquerque at Barelas
are being cut away at lively rate and
work has been commenced to throw up
dikes.
Advices from Rio Arriba county to
the New Mexican are to the effect that
there have been several heavy rain
storms in that section during the past
week. The snow in the mountains is
melting very rapidly and the volume
of water now coming down the Chama
river and its tributaries is tremendous,
The bridge of the Denver and Rio
Grande railroad across the Chama near
its confluence with the Rio Grande is

Through a Newly Broken TRAIL

Yosemite, May 16.-Shortly after
noon today the presidential party, oc-
cupying four stages, entered the Yose-
mite Valley. The President himself did
not accompany the party. He eluded a
large crowd awaiting him in the val
ley, by taking the trail with few
members of his party at Chinquapin, IL
miles from here. The colored troopers
of the 9th cavalry, broke the trail
through the snow, which was quite
deep in places. In accordance with
the Presidents desire to enjoy his out
ing in private, his movements were
jealously guarded by all officials.

.LOR|LLARD JEWELS

THIEVES FOLLOWED FROM MONTE CARLO

London, May 16.-The loss of Mrs.

have been robbed of $4,000 worth of
jewels, is probably much greater. Mrs.
LOrillard lost all her jewelry except
what she was wearing, together with a
letter of credit and other valuables.
The robbery occurred at the Berkeley
hotel to which place two men followed
Mr. and Mrs. Lorllard from Monte

for a favorable opportunity to commit
the robbery. The police have no clue

in very serious condition and unless
the flood subsi 't-s and the waters low
er rapidly, thef is gra ~a danger of the
washing out of the bridge at any mo-
ment.
From the sections along the Rio
Grande throughout the entire territory.
it is reported that the stage of the wa
ter in the river is the highest for II
years. In Rio Arriba, Taos and Santa
Fe counties, the tributaries of the Rio
Grande are full to overfiowing This is
caused both by recent heavy rains and
by the rapid melting of the snow in
the Sangre de Cristo range, the Taos
and Santa Fe mountains. Below White
Rock canon in Sandoval county, near
the Indian Pueblos of Cochiti, Zia and
San Domingo. the channel near the
bridge in the vicinity is very deep and
the water has made several other cham
nels, one over $50 feet wide and which
must be crossed in ferries operated by
the Indians of these pueblos. The new
channel above described is over six feet
deep in the middle and the only way
to cross it is by the ferries furnished
by the Indians. Wagons and teams
cannot go across the river in any other
way.
About a dozen telegraph. poles of the
Denver and Rio Grande railroad be-
tween EspanOla and Chamita, were de-
stroyed by wind and lightning. AS a
result of the overflow of the Rlo
Grande the Hobart ranch, near Espan-
ola, is submerged to a great extent
