HIGHEST IN YEARS
Minnesota River Floods the Bottom
Lands and Is Over Mile
in Width.
Waters Dotted With Little Islands
Of Groves, Houses and Farm
< Buildings.
Special to The Journal.

Jordan, Mimi, June 3.--The Minnesota
river has reached the highest point in
twenty-five years, and the whole river
bottom region, over mile In width, is
a picturesque sight, groves, houses and
farm buildings and occasional little hill
locks only standing out of the water
Both ferries which this city maintains
across the river at points about six miles
apart, are out of commission, the boat at
the Ohmen ferry having been carried
down to that place by the raging current.
The rise was sudden, one farmer having
to leave the field he was working in, the
water travelling so fast.
The flood has been about stationery for
the past twenty-four hours, and Is about
to recede. No accidents are reported and
no loss to property, outside of the dam
age to growing crops, submerged by the
freShet.
Farmers in the region had to return to
feeding hay to their stock since the high
water covered the pasture lands.
ST. PETER, MINN.-The Minnesota
river has been out Of it's banks for sew
era.l days but is now fast recedng and
If heavy rains do not fall will reach a
nominal spring stage in short time.
There was fear at one time that the river
would wash a new channel at a point
between this place and Kasota, but the
danger in this direction seems to have
passed. a
The losses in this neighborhood are con-
lined to, crops and pastures and are not
of much Importance. Almost the same
conditions found here prevail in the re-
gion around LIE Sueur.

MOB HOLDS CITY
DISCHARGED 500 wORKMEN RESORT
TO SERIOUS RIOTING.
Men Were Promised Wages But Were
Not Paid-Everything Moveabls in
Office of Mining Company Is Des-
troyed and the Street Cars are
Charged Upon and Tied Up.

Sault Ste. Marie, Mich, Sept. 30.-
The Canadian 500 has been the scene
of serious rioting by the discharged en-
ployes of the Consolidated Lake Super
ior Company all day and tonight the
situation is very grave.
Trouble came when the company put
the men off the premises when they de-
manded their promi~ed pay. The labor
ers broke away from all restraint the
large force of special police could exert,
and smashed every window in the mag
nifcent building of the company in the
Canadian 500, charged puon the street
cars and demanded that the conductors
and motormen join them, and were
only prevented from doing further dam
age by cIever ruse of one of the COM
pany's officials, who turned in a fire
alarm to divert attention. - .-.4.ssasss ..sass
In the assault upon the Office build
ing by the mob early this afternoon,
before the arrival on the ground of
troops, the frenzied rioters secured pos
session OF the ground floor of the build
ing, destroying everything movable
that came in their path. A crowd of
the Office staff, with drawn revolvers,
prevented their gaining access to the
upper floors cf the building.
The, arrival OF troops on the ground
armed with ball cartrides about 2
o. clock this afternoon served to restore
some semblance of order. The rioters
then contented themselves with throw
ing stones at the building and hurling
invectives at the soldiers, who estab-
lishedka "dead line' and prevented
any approach toward the building by
any of the rioters.
The greatest number of the men are
ignorant Italians, Firms, Norwegians
and Frenchmen, the latter perhaps the
hardest of all to handle. All have
been drinking heavily.

YUKON ROAD CRIES HALT.
Impossible to Get All Freight Through
Now in Sight.

Vancouver. B. c., Oct. $50 con-
vinced are officials of the White Pass
& Yukon route that they cannot land
in Dawson all the freight which is now
at White Horse and on the way there
from Vancouver and Puget sound ports
that they today notified connecting
lines of the seriousness of the situation.
Telegraphic advises to the representa-
tives of connecting lines were today
sent out and they were in effect that no
more perishable freight billed beyond
White Horse would be received.
Notification was also made that per-
ishable or any other kind of freight
which had not been billed to Dawson
prior to September would be held in
the warehouse at White Horse only at
the risk of the shipper. Connecting
lines were notified that as regards ship
ments now on the way to the coast from
the East and destined for the Yukon,
shippers had better be notified as to the
conditions existing and informed that
their goods would be probably held up
this winter at White Horse.

MAD RUSH TO DEATH.
South Carolina Train Strikes Curve at
Very High Speed.

Charlotte, s. c., Sept. 30.-While
running at a high rate of speed, a
south bound fast mail train on the
Southern Railway jumped from a tres
tie 75 feet high, north of Nanville, W.
Va, this afternoon and was almost de-
molished. Of the crew Of Is men, in
Guiding mail carriers, nine were killed
and seven injured.
The trestle where the accident oc-
Cured is 500 feet long and is on a
sharp curve. Engineer Brodie, who
was new man on that division, came
to the curve at high speed.
The locomotive had only gone about
so feet when it sprang from the track,
carrying with it four mail cars and an
express car. The trestle, wooden
structure, also gave way for space of
so feet. At the foot of the trestle is a
shallow stream with rocky bottom.
Striking this, the locomotive and cars
were reduced to mass of twisted iron
and steel and pieces of splintered wood
All the dead men were mutilated.
No one on any of the cars had made an
effort to jump, and the bodies of all
those killed were found in the wleck-
age OF the different cars to which they
had been engaged. A crowd soon gath
cred. Some women among them
tainted at sight of the crushed bodies.
All the express matter in the express
car was destroyed.

GREAT TRIUMPH FOR AMERICA.
Wilson Tells of the Stamping Out OF
Foot and rIouth Disease.

Washington, Oct. 1.-Secretary Will
son said today that the receipt through
the state department, of an official no.
tice that Great Britain had removed its
embargo on cattle and sheep from the
New England ports was the conclusion
of the great work in which the depart
ment had been engaged since september
l for the eradication of foot and mouth
disease from the New England states.
The secretary regards this as the most
important and valuable piece of work
the department has done for American
agriculture.
s'No country he said, "before has
succeeded in stamping out such an ex-
tensive outbreak of this disease. The
inspectors and their assistants were
obliged to work in the open country
with the thermometer far below zero.
Some of the men had their extremities
frozen and were disabled. 1t is diff
cult, even at this time, to understand
how the pits were dug in the frozen
ground tor burying the carcasses, and
how the disinfectants we're applied with
everything of liquid nature froze in
a short time alter it was exposed to
the atmosphere. But the work was so
thorough that not in a single case
where the disinfection was conducted
by the departments representatives
did the disease reoc ur when fresh cat
tie were introduced
