THERE IS NO DANGER
To This City, Although the low|ands
Of Alameda are Inundated.
LET'S SLEEP IN PEACE.

Last night a break occurred in the
Alameda dyke on the Rio Grande,
about eight miles above this city,
and today several thousand acres of
land is under water.
There is little danger of the over
flow reaching this city.
A large force of men under Don
Rankin, county surveyor, and Thos. C.
Gutierrez, county commissioner, are
mending the break in the dyke, and
the gap will no doubt be closed this
afternoon.
The village of Alameda is flooded
and the people have moved their
household goods to the foothills. Mr..
Schultz the village merchant, was the
only man left in the place at IL o'clock
this morning.
At noon today the water was about
three feet deep above the dyke, and
the break was about fifty feet long.
The whole upper end of the valley is
flooded to this side of Alameda The
crops will be greatly damaged, and
many of the adobe houses are ruined.
The Corrales bridge is entirely sur
rounded by water. and nearly the
whole Of that village is inundated.
If the break is mended this after
noon further damage need not be ap-
pretended. The water is not within
three feet of the top of the dyke. If it
had been closely watched, no break
could have occurred.
There is no danger in this city from
the overflow at Alameda 1t would take
several feet more of high water to
send the food into Albuquerque, and
there was no indication of a further
rise this afternoon.
Pitt Ross, civil engineer, also visit
ed the dyke section last night, after

A Mighty Torrent.

Arlington, Ore, June 15.-A mes
sage direct from Heppner says that
800 were drowned in the cloudburst.
The water ran one hour and half
1t came down in mighty torrent
sweeping everything before it, Among
the drowned are: Thomas Howard
and family Krug and family, Robert
Kinds and family, Mr.. and Mrs. Daw-
son, James Jones and family, DR.. Nc
Sward, family of C. A. Rhea, Mr..
Carris and family, Mrs. Charles An

family, occupants of the Heppner ho-
tel, Mattock family, DR.. Higgs' child,
Miss Elliott, Mrs. Elder, Bill Cohen
and family Redfield, an attorney, and
family, VIM. Walter and family.
The people were caught in their
shouses with no chance of escape.
Heavy rains had been falling all the
afternoon, and the residents were in
their houses. Without warning a ter
rife wall of water came tearing down
the creek, and the next moment the
houses were wrecked and carried
away, mass of ruins, on the crest OF
the immense wave. Many persons
were killed outright. Others were
drowned after heroic efforts to save
themselves. Others were swept away
like so many matches and all means
of communication by wire were de
stroyed. Messengers arriving at thl:
place report the scene the most awfu
to imagine.

THE TRAINS.
The Arrival and Departure of Trains
Very Confusing.
TIME UP TO PRESS HOUR.

The nearest possible correct report
on trains arriving from the north OBJ
tainable at 3 o'clock this afternoon
gives the following:
Train No. 3, the California limited,
first to cross the bridge, o'clock this
afternoon, arrive tonight between IL

Trains Nos. and 7, due here last
night, will follow close behind.
No. s, from the west, is reported on
time
No. 27, the FL Paso train, will leave
shortly after the arrival of the trains
from the north
There was some confusion in the de-.
parture OF trains from the local sta.
tion last night, and some few passen-
gers wishing to go south were left.
No. 27, the FL Paso outgoing train, left
about on time, although thirty minutes
before leaving was reported to lay over
until this morning.

OPERA HOUSE SCENERY.
Committee Of EIkS Make Selections
Yesterday,
FROM KANSAS CITY COMPANY.

The Elks' opera house building com
mittee took one more step yesterday
towards the construction and equip
ment of the new opera house by buy
ing the scenery. j. E. higgins, repre-
senting the Kansas City Scenic COM
pany, was in the city and for two
hours in the morning entertained the
committee and few other enthusias
tic Elks with an endless display OF
samples of stage scenery. The sam
pies were shown in a miniature stage
set up in d. J. Rankin's office. The
stage was cleverly equipped with cleo
trio lights and the scenes were shown
with the best effect. The scenes were
so many and varied in grandeur and
beauty that it was confusing even to
the committee.
Nothing was done in the morning in
business way and recess was taken
until afternoon, when the committee
again met, but this time they were
alone with the agent. Ihey gave out
that they had purchased $4,000 worth
of scenery, but would not say what
their selections were.
They could not make a mistake in
their selections even if they selected
from Mr. higgins stock at random
as they were all of the latest designs
and colorings. There will be a treat
in store for Albuquerque theater-goers
in the way of scenery, when the cur
tain goes up in the Elks' new opera
house next October. The main drop
will probably be a chariot race scene
from Ben Hur." 1t is of the most
expensive kind; rich in color and tex
ture, and will stand out bold in detail.

telephone message had been sent to
this city regarding a break in the
dyke, and returned this morning on a
short train which had been sent up to
Alameda by f. l.. Myers, the Santa
Fe railway agent. Mr.. Ross says he
and County Surveyor Rankin walked
over every foot of the dyke, and gives
it as his opinion that, while that sec
dated from the heavy rain yesterday
afternoon and the natural overflow,
the people of this city should feel no
alarm at a flood here. Mr.. Ross also
stated that had some one been on the
ground yesterday to have directed
work being performed by farmers In
waters from their farms, that the dyke
would not have broken at all. He
found the water considerably lower
at the Corrales bridge than several
days ago, and says that the great trou-
BILE comes from the intake" at the
river of the big Chamisal ditch this
side of the bridge and the Alameda
ditch, thus flooding the lowlands. He
also stated that the break was caused
by mismanagement-not from any rise
in the river, and that the trouble. o~
fear of any food, can be remedied by
float drift and filling up certain sec
tions near the Alameda ditch.
Herman Blueher and others also Wis
tied che dyke country, and they are Ok
the same opinion-that 1t will take
more than the Rio Grande in its pres
ent stage or with a rise Of several
feet to do any more damage than what
has already been done in the lowlands
of the Alameda precinct
Commissioners Harsch and Cutter
res are at the scene of the break in the
Alameda dyke this afternoon and have
large force of men closing the ere
vase with bags Of sand.

Miss Anna B. Fletcher.

Last Saturday evening Miss Anna
b. Fletcher of Aurora, Ind, who has
been in the city some weeks suffering
from consumption, succumbed to that
dreaded disease while en- route in an
ambulance to the depot, where she
would have taken a train home. The
remains are in care OF Undertaken j.
w. Edwards. and will be shipped to
the Indiana home for interment.
The deceased was in very poor
health when she came to Albuquerque.
She continued to grow worse and her
sister, Miss Mirnie Fletcher, who ac-
companied her west, decided that the
end was near and it would be better
if the sick one could pass away at
home and among friends. Death de-
feated the plans. The body will be
shipped out on the first train east.

Kansas City, June 15.-Edward T.

a critical inspection of the flooded dis
trict around Kansas City. He describes
the conditions at Armourdale, which
received the brunt of the food here,
as worse than that following the floods
at Johnstown and Galveston. He
said:
"Armourdale is the worst wrecked
city | have ever seen. The newspap-
ers could not exaggerate the condition
there. In fact it cannot be described
so a person who has not seen the
ruin can realize the awful devastation
by the waters. | had read about the
flood and thought, of course, that the
condition of Armourdale was bad but

81 was at the Johnstown flood and |
also made study of the terrible disas-
ter that visited the city of Galveston,
but the condition of Armourdale is
much more serious than at either Of
those cities. East Et Louis is suffer
ing and 10000 people are homeless,
but the loss there will not begin to
compare with that in Armourdale."
