The Return of the Presi-

Postmaster General Payne Threw His
Arms About Him and Whispered
Something to Him.

Washington. d. c., June 5.-Presi-
dent Roosevelt returned to Washing
ton tonight from his memorable trip
OF over two months throughout the
west. He was given hearty recep-
ton by the people OF the capital who
packed the sidewalks as he arrived and,
escorted by the battalion of high school
cadets, was driven TO the White House.
The president cordially responded TO
the greetings given him and repeatedly
stood up in his carriage and waved his
hat and bowed his acknowledgements.
He looked the picture of health.
There was a large gathering of offi-
cials at the Pennsylvania railroad sta
ton when the president arrived and
shouts of welcome home as Mr.. Roose-
welt made his appearance on the plat
form. This continued while the presi-
dent was in or about the station. The
president spent a few minutes in eX-
changing greetings with assembled
officials.
He talked longer with Postma ster
General Payne than any others, the
latter throwing his arms about the
president and apparently whispering

The trip just completed has been in
some respects the most remarkable
ever taken, President Roosevelt and

roads and several hundred miles in
stage coaches ard carriages but not an
accident marred their journey. Not
FIVE minutes delay was occasioned dur
ing the whole trip on account of train
conditions ara the schedule adopted by
Secretary Loeb for the party which
left Washington was carried out with
military precision. Rarely was the

THE RAGING RIVER
Devastation Along the Up
per Mississippi
Between Iowa Points and St. Louis a
Waste OF Crops Is Threatened Esti-
mated at Half Million.

Quincy. ILL.,. June 5.-The river is ris-
ing from Keokuk to st. Louis and
three levees north of here have broken.
These levees have yielded before
but the damage done cannot be COM
pared with what is wrought at this
time. More of the bottom lands are
under cultivation and the population
of the flooded district is greater than
heretofore.
The levee district or the east bank
of the river begins a few miles south
of Warsaw. The levee of the Lima
lake drainage district was last TO give
out going at 8 O'Clock this morning, the
break occurring at point twenty and
half miles north of Meyer. and oppo-
site Tully island where a few tree tops
could still be seen above the water.
These patrolling had TO fee. Nearly
200 families moved in skiffs. Included
in the three levee districts that are
row at the mercy OF the flood are S.
600 acres of land. On the strength of
recent successful seasons the bottom
lands on nearly all of the vacant areas
were under cultivation.
There were thousands of wheat and
corn crops alone on this bottom thai
might easily reach a half million dol
lars in value.

THE FIRST SURVIVORS.

1t was not supposed from the nature
of the disaster that anybody on the
train would have escaped and especially
any members of the train crew. 1t was
then almost incredible when the news
was spread about town that Engineer
Chambers and Fireman Shipp had been
brought in apparently not seriously in
jured. They came in from the scene
of the wreck in a wagon and DR.. Duff
field, who had been sent as soon as
the news of the explosion came TO town,
hurried back TO attend to them. They
were taken to the o. X. store on South
Seventh avenue, and il was found that
they had been not seriously but very
curiously injured. The fireman was
deaf: he had heard no explosion but he
had seen great deal Of fire. He said
he noticed it about mile this side of
Glendale. 1t first seemed TO be shoot
ing from the end of a car. 1t looked
like a burning fuse and the next thing
he knew it was shooting all over the
cab of the engine. He called to the en-
gineer and they both jumped off and
began running. They were aecompan-
led in their flight by a brakeman. and
Fireman Shipp said that the last he
saw of him all his clothes had been
torn off. He did not know whether or
not he had been badly hurt.
But Engineer Chambers had heard an
explosion: He saw telegraph and tele-
phone poles flying in every direction,
but he saw little else of the disaster.
He heard a man say without paying
much attention to it that under the car
in which the explosion had occurred
there was a hole in the ground ten feet
deep. i was his opinion that a car of
powder had exploded and perhaps two
cars. The car on fire was three cars
back of the engine. Fireman Shipp
had no outward marks of the disaster
upon him, but the face of the engineer
was disfiguTed by contusions. his body
was badly bruised and he was suffering
from an injury of his left arm. Both
men were cool, but they looked like
men who had recently come out of a
dream.

GROWING DANGER-

ST. Louis. Mo-, June 5.-The terrific
force and the destructive magnitude OF
the great food that is sweeping down
the Mississippi steadily increasing in
volume. surrounding and demolishing
barriers of protection and greedily lap
ping at property and reaching for lives
as it resistlessly extends farther and
farther beyond the ordinary river con-
fines is now being felt in ST. Louis and
vicinity to a great extent.
The Mississippi north OF the mouth
of the Missouri is rising still but the
rapidity of the rise has been diminish
ed because of the breaks in the levees.
The great Sny levee, which extends for
miles along the Illinois shore from
Hannibal northward. broke today and
the angry waters went rushing
through to devastate thousands of
acres of fertile farming lands. Posi-
bly, some lives may be lost but no re-
ports of loss of life have so. FAR been
received.
Later in the cay the food forced q
passage through the levee at Madison
his, just north of St. Louis. This
levee is fifteen miles long and for days
men have been hard at work endeavor-
ing to strengthen it. West Granite, a
town of 1000 people. is located in a de-
preston between the levee and a rail-
road embankment. Warning has been
sounded and inhabitants had sought
refuge when the deluge came. 1t is be-
lieved that the town is under water.
Like the City of Venice, the streets
of Venice, Ill, almost opposite St.
Louis, are waterways and the inhabi-
tants go about in boats.
In st. Louis the buildings along the
river front have practically been aban-
doned and the first floors are over a
foot under water which stands two feet
deep on the top of steamboat levee.
In South St. Louis fully 100 families
living near the mouth of the river Des

gone, and not a sign of them was to be
seen. Scattered in the immediate neigh
borhood was a small quantity of kind
ling wood from the wrecked cars, and
for a radius of quarter of a mile
wreckage was to be found. The car
load of spikes was scattered over the
surrounding country, and Conductor
Wallin salo that after he got out OF
the caboose and for several minutes af-
ter, it seemed that it was raining
spikes. The agent at Glendale said
that several pieces of iron fell there.
For several hundred feet in all direc-
tions the ground was finely pulverized.
Roadmaster Higley ordered the
wrecking crew from Tempe at once,
and the train passed through Phoenix
for the wreck at o'clock. 1t was the
intention to transfer from both passen-
ger trains without material delay, and
Mr. Higley said the line would be en-
tirely repaired before noon today Mr.
Thomas Sloan from the Phoenix office
took charge of the telegraph line re-
pairing, and at l o'clock had succeeded
in getting the wires in order.

FELT IN PHOENIX.

The explosion had a very sensible ef-
sect in Phoenix. Some people who were
riding on the streets on bicycles fell off.
They heard the noise and they previ-
ously saw the flame. They thought it
was a meteorite. 1t shot up from the
northwest, and then, according to diff
ferent versions-some thought il was
three minutes afterward, some a min
ute and some half minute-they heard
the explosion.
1t was so violent that persons sitting
in the Maricopa club were shaken in
their chairs and the door between the
club and the office of the Hotel Adams
was thrown shut.
Persons driving along the road be-
tween Phoenix and Tempe saw the
shoot of flame and heard the explosion.
There was hardly a place in town
where it was not felt. Many thought
it to be an earthquake.
Then came the information that an
accident had occurred on the Santa Fe.
Some thought it was only a mile or
two out of town. 1t was later report
ed to have happened al Glendale and
messengers were sent through the
streets hunting for doctors. 1t was re-
ported that not a man had been left
alive on the train: that most of the
people of Glendale had gone up in the
cataclysm.
A train was arranged to go out to the
scene of the disaster, but no informa-
ton of il could then be obtained. There
was some delay in getting it started. 1t
came back an hour afterward, but
those who had gone out said they had
not gone as far as the wreck, but that
another trip would be made. 1t was
not known whether there had been any
casualties.

SHOT HIS ToRMENToR.
A Tragedy in New York Factory Fol-
lowed a Practical Joke.

New York, June 5.-Tired of being
made the object of practical jokes, of
which he had been a patient victim for
three years, Frank Louis De Kenot, a
machine operator in the American Tin
Can company's factory in Brooklyn, to-
day turned on his tormentors' and shot
fellow workman, John Bonis. dead
Great excitement followed the shoot
ing. The factory is opposite the base
ball grounds and the shooting occurred
just as the crowds were landed at the
gates from the trolley cars.
Fifteen girls employed in the factory
tainted and were carried to the yard
street.
The building was quickly surrounded
by policemen and a search was made.
but the murderer had escaped. Some
of the girls said they saw him go down
the fire escape.
De Kenot, or Lewes, could never
learn to speak English. and on this ac-
count the other Italians used to annoy
him.
Bonis' father worked on the fourth
floor. When he learned that his SON
had been shot he tore his race with his
finger nails until the skin hung in tat
ters. He was crazed with grief Su-
perintendent Lefevre said:
"As nearly as L could learn, Bonis
threw a water soaked paper wad at De
Kenot and struck him on the back oi
the neck. The other workmen laughed
and De Kenot in rage drew his re-
Volver and shot Bemis in the right
breast"
