4 Man Prominent in Railroad Circles
Dies of Heart Failure.

Atlanta. Ga. March 1I.-William
Claude Dennis. local commercial agent
of the Cotton Belt railroad and promi-
nent in railroad circles was found dead
in his room at local hotel here today.
The cause of his death was heart fail
ure. He had been confined to his room
for the past few days, on account of
slight indisposition and his death came
unexpectedly.
He was born in Taylorsville, KY,
February 18th, 1865. He entered the
railroad business in 1884, beginning as
a clerk in the auditors department of
the Louisville and Nashville railroad.
Besides serving with several other
roads in an official capacity, he was
secretary of the Southeastern MiSSiS
sippi Association at Louisville. from
1898 until 1901. At the expiration of his
term as secretary of that association
he was appointed assistant general
freight agent of the Plant system.
which office he held until elected assiS-
tant general freight agent of the Kan
sas City Southern railway, with head
quarters at Kansas City. He had only
recently resigned from the Kansas City
Southern and began his duties in this
city February 1st, as commercial agent
of the Cotton Belt railroad. He is sur
ViVed by a wife and six children, who
are now in Kansas City, and who have
been notified of his death.

NO WATER IN TOWN.
A Water Main Bursts and Charlotte
Becomes as Dry a Tinder Box.
The City of the Unwashed.

AT O'Clock yesterday afternoon a
joint blew out of the big Pinch water
main at the corner of Mcdowell and
Fifth streets, and to remedy the break
age the men who were hurriedly sent
out by the Waterworks department had
to shut off the water supply of this city
The water from the pumping station
is supplied to Charlotte from this big
main, through which flows an average
of a million gallons of water a day.
Within five minutes after the water
supply was shut off there was a gen.
eral cry of distress and the complaints,
though philosophical enough, were con-
tinuously heard in all parts of town all
afternoon, evening and night.
Not considering a few wells that are
seldom, if ever. used, there is no water
in town except in the stand-pipe which
contains 100000 gallons. This is the
only protection against fire.
At this hOur-2 o'clock-a large force
Of hands is still busy trying to mend
the break in the water main while the
town is as dry as a tinder box. 1t is
bad enough to have no water to drink
or water with which to give the streets
their usually Saturday night bath; but
the thought that this is tub night and
that there are 10000 of the unwashed
in this hamlet is enough to cause a
municipal blush.-Charlotte Observer.

Parkersburg. w. Va, March 1.-THE
Baltimore and Ohio railroad claiming
the right under an ordinance adopted
in 1852, brought a force of men into
town before daylight this morning and
began to lay track for five blocks,
over the principal streets of the city.
The police had been notified Of their
coming and had been instructed to
call out the fire department, if an at
tempt was made to lay a track. The
department responded and poured
such a stream of water ON the men
that they had to abandon the street
a clash occurred between the mayor,
who is attorney for the Baltimore and
Ohio, and the city council. The mayor
had directed the police not to inter-
fere with the building of the track,
but the council countermanded his or
ders and the departments stood with
the council and the citizens.
Following the excitement of the early
morning. the city council held special
meeting at which Impeachment pro-
ceedings were begun against Mayor J.
w. VandervOort. He was suspended
from office and Injunction proceedings
were begun in the circuit court. Calls
were issued for men to protect the
street from any further interference and
hundreds responded.

Crisis in the Manufa curing Indus-

Boseon, Mass, March ia crisis has
been created in the cotton manufacture
ing Industries at Lowell, by the refusal
of the mill agents to grant d ten per

closely watched by treasurers and di-
rectors of many other mills, whose af-

submitting them with the portions Of
the text of the treaty which he had not
changed as a substitute or the whole
agreement. He did not demand a roll
call, and the substitute was voted
down, viva yoce, almost unanimously.
It was now few minutes past 5
clock, and Senator Morgan took the
floor to make the last Of his long series
of speeches in opposition to the treaty:
In accordance with the unanimous
agreement, he spoke for an hour, and
in order to conform himself to the time
and to make the points he desired to
make. he had prepared his speech in
advance. He read deliberately. but in
a firm voice, often depressing in order
TO emphasize a point
He stopped short at the expiration Of
his allotted time whereupOn Senator
Cullom, chairman of the committee on
foreign relations took the floor to re-
ply. He also read his speech from
manuscript, presenting carefully pre-
pared and business like summary Of
the reasons for ratifying the treaty and
for constructing the canal. Senator
Cullom occupied only about three
fourths of the hour allotted to himself,
and when he had concluded, the ques-
ton as to whether the treaty should
be ratified was promptly put before the
senate All the senators in the city
occupied their seats and all were
prompt in responding when their names
were called. The vote resulted in the
ratification of the treaty by 73 to 5. The
result was no surprise, for all had pre-
dicted that when the offered amend
meats had been disposed of the treaty
would be approved by an overwhelming
majority. The first opposition to be
carried was that Of Senator Daniel, OF
Virginia. Senator Daniel was Joined
by his colleague, Senator Martin and
after them came the two Alabama
senators, Messrs Morgan and Pettus.
Senator Teller, of Colorado, also voted
in opposition and his was the last vote
on that side of the question.
When Senator Frye who occupied the
chair, announced the result there was
no demonstration and the senate ad-
journed, when this result was reached.
However it had been decided to meet
again tomorrow at IL o'clock for the
purpose of taking up the Cuban treaty
and with the hope of concluding its
considera ton in order that the senate
might adjourn finally tomorrow.

Washington, March 17.-Special river
bulletin-The Mississippi at Memphis is
at stage of 1916 feet and rising. There
was a break in the levee fifteen miles
above Memphis on the Arkansas side
and the levee at LuXora and Pecan
Points are reported to be in danger
The situation is still critical and will
continue so until the river falls.
In the vicinity of Helena there will be
a rapid rise for a day or two.
In the Vicksburg district, the situa-
ton is considered very grave.
The stage indicated for greenville is
slightly more than forty-seven feet,
while a fifty-one foot stage is probabl
at Vicksburg.
In the New Orleans district there
have been several crevasses. The larg-
est occurred thirty miles below Natchez
on the Louisiana side. It is two miles
wide. Second crevasses 24O feet wide
occurred at Bohemia, fifty miles below
New Orleans. These crevasses will de-
lay the arrival of the flood crest and
diminish its height somewhat.
The Ohio is falling except at Cairo.
The fall at that place will begin We'd
nesday.
The Situation Becomes Alarming.
Memphis, Tenn, March 1.-THE flood
situation in the portion of the Missis-
sippi valley contiguous to Memphis is
extremely critical tonight A veritable
sea exists in the ST. Francis and Mis-
sissippi river basins in Arkansas, ex-
tending from the one completely to the
other, a distance of many miles.
Trough this territory, the ST. Louis
and San Francisco railroad runs, but
all trains were annulled on this line
today and no assistance can be rendered
by the railroad, it's tracks being under
water near Marion, Ark At this latter
point, telegraph connections still exist
to Memphis and the reports that come
in over the wire are far from encourag-
ing. The town is almost totally flooded
and citizens are using skiffs as their
only means of travel. Refugees from
the adjacent territory are pouring into
Marion each hour, asking that boats be
sent to their rescue. There is no means
of reaching them except by making a
breach in the levee near Memphis and
this may be done tomorrow if condi-
tions show no improvement. 1t is es-
timated that several hundred persons
are surrounded by the water in the
flooded Arkansas territory and that the
loss Of live stock is heavy in the ex-
trene.
Negroes at Marion have become
frightened and almost a panic exists
They have congregated at the depo,
and in the cabins of the village and re-
fuse to work. A relief train, the last
