his support to the ticket. The con

of candidate for lieutenant governor
but the leaders Of the new combina

MILLS IN A BAD WAY.

Manufacturers Of Maine Not Able to
Compete with Southern Plants.
The Boston Transcript. which has
been Investigating the textile condi'

"Throughout the state of Maine
manufacturers seem to think that the
present situation is very serious
one, not alone because the higher rrice
of cotton and the dull markets force
curtailment. but because there are
southern mills that are able to keep
in full operation under the present ad-
verse conditions and undersell New
England mills in the New York mar
kets when sales can be made"

Heaviest Losses Oceasioned by
Overflow Of Rivers.

A special of Friday from Kansas
City says: All the tributaries Of
the Kaw river in Kansas are rising
rapidly and a serious flood is threat
ened. Heavy rains continuing for two
days prevailed all over the state.
Twice within the past thirty days
most of the streams have overfowed
their banks, washing out railway
tracks and crops, destroying much
property and rendering several hun
dred persons temporarily homeless.
But each time there came a lull in
the rainfall, the rivers receded and al.
most normal conditions prevailed.
Further heavy rain storms have
again swollen the streams, this time
beyond the height experienced in the
two former rises. Friday the rain con-
tinued to fall at many points through
out Kansas and the ultimate result
must be that the Kaw, already bank
full at many places, will overflow its
banks at Kansas City. and while the
conditions are not such as brought on
the June flood Of last year and, a
though no great amount Of damagesis
expected in the city, preparations are
being made to meet the situation as
it. may develop. = ss.e. &
Six Hundred Made Homeless. IS
At Newton over six hundred persons
have been rendered homeless byc,a
sudden rise in Sand creek; which flows
through the north and west portions
Of that town. The flooded district en-
braces about one-fourth Of Newton
and in many, houses the water stands
as high as the second story windows.
The rise in the creek was caused by
cloudburst and the water rose so
rapidly that hundreds of}persons were
caught in their homes: Hundreds Of
men worked all night, rescuing the un-
fortnnates. Morning found all remov-
ed, to places -ef safety, but with the
water still rising and further heavy
damage. '-s::s; '-s:.;,.. yss.si5..''!!

was practically remedied by $50 a.. m.
Throughout the city, however, a
great many wires were down. -
The storm was widespread and Gov
cred a large area. Reports coming in
from the country indicate that crops
and out houses suffered considerable
loss, but no one was killed or in
jured. :: .r.-
The storm broke over Dallas at 2
o'clock Friday morning, and contin-
ued with great force until 5 o'clock.
The rain fell in torrent all night,
accompanied by heavy wind, which
finally developed into cyclonic fury.
When the Western Union building
was struck a panic ensued among the
force at WORK in the operating room. &.
Wire communication with the outside
world was cut off for several hours,
and was only partially restored at 9
o'clock. At 9:45, however, the city
