IL Paso Tex. June 1.-THE food con-
dition is regarded as serious here to-
night by even the most conservative per-
sons. The river continues to rise and
the water is striking the leVee with
great force
ALI available policemen have been
placed on duty along the river and the
city engineer and street commissioner
have been busy since morning with a
large number of worlSmen engaged
IN terrifying weak spots in the
leyee with sand bags. AT one point the
water ate out a cavity 10 feet long. but
it was filed with sand bags.
Below the city the river tore through
all distractions and entered it's old chan
mel. which was abandoned when the cut
off was built three years ago to strength
en- the stream. to guard against future
overflow.
Late this evening the chief of police
received a telephone message from john
Miller a. merchant and ranchman at
White SPUR, miles above town, stating
that the river had gotten behind the
levee and formed a lake miles square
and quite deep. This threatens to sweep
away the levee and come down upon EI

The danger OF overflow.

SOUTHERN ROADS
WIN THEIR CASE
NV Associated Press. J

MACON, Ga, May l6,-Argument was
concluded to-day in the case OF tho
Georgia Saw Mill Association versus the
Southeastern Freight Association and the
several railroad companies composing it.
Judge Speer stated that he had at first
decided to take the case under advise
ment, but owing to the Importance of
the interests involved he had decided to
hand down an opinion.
The defendants filed n demurrer to the
Satisfaction Of the court. The demurrer
was overruled Judge Speer holding that
he entertained no doubt of the courts
jurisdiction to restrain the enforcement
OF rates made III violation of the inter-
state commerce law or otherwise as a
result of combination In restraint Of
trade. Judge Speer held that 1t is COM
petent for a court Of equity to so frame
its orders as to secure both parties the
fullest hearing and freest investigation,
and at the San time In proper cases to
restrain irreparable injury.
Governed by this view, he dissolved
the temporary injunction against the
railroads; but in case the railroads shall
enforce the rate complained of, the court
reserves the right upon proper appli-
cation of the Saw Mill Association, to
enjon the railroads from putting such
rate into effect pending the hearing be-
fore the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion.
Immediately after the hearing the In
terstate Commerce Commission was noti-
fled by wire that an increase Of two cents
per hundred on Georgia yellow pine
lumber destined for points north of the
Ohio River would be effective ton days
after date.
