Exposure in Their Homes

The ebb and flow of raging waters are yet
There is a slight betterment of conditions
in the southwestern counties, where the
flooded streams are at a stand. and in
some cases receding, but two deaths from
exposure are reported from Vincennes. Rail-
road traffic is practically nil in that part
of the State, and some towns have had no
mails tor week.
Portland, in common with other north
ern Indiana towns, reports a repetition of
the disastrous flood OF last Saturday. In
that city the water is five feet deep In
the main street. Noblesville fears an even
more disastrous experience than that of
last week. and in Anderson the waters of
White river are flowing across East
Eighth street. Hundreds of families have
again abandoned their homes, and in most
cases the property loss will be even greater
than a week ago. Interurban traffic and
railroad schedules have been abandoned or
are being maintained with no regard TO the
time made.
Towns along the Wabash river are in dan
ger or put to great inconvenience, eastern
Indiana points report high waters and
great amount of damage and the central
part of the State is suffering severely with
the rest. Immense damage is being done to
farm property in three-fourths of the coun-
ties. The reports show the upper reaches
of the White and Wabash rivers to be
rising rapidly.

Fairbank.

The broken dixie at Senate avenue af-
forded clear sweep for the torrents of the
flood last night and in very short time
all of the lowlands between Senate and
Northwestern avenues were completely
Inundated The waters reached north as
far as Twenty-sixth street almost az high
as the point reached by the former floods.
For while last night the greatest Of ex-
element reigned. The people had been
warned by the police to vacate their homes.
but, not fearing the dangers OF a second
flood few took advant Of the warnings
of the police and when made prisoners by
the waters again they became greatly ex-
cited.
The broken levees which heretofore
checked the overflow Of the river from this
section OF the city allowed the high waters
an unchecked open way. and. as before. a
number of houses were completely
rounded by the floods.
At an early hour this morning Fall creek
had risen TO within "A very few inches OF
Fairbank. At this time. though. IL was
thought the water was at a standstill and
that further danger TO this resort would be
avoided. A visit TO this place presents a
deplorable state OF affairs aud IL would
seem that little more havoc than has al
ready been played could be done at this
place.

LONDON, April 2.-Some surprise is ex-
pressed over the rapid development of the
Japanese advance in Korea as indicated
by the seizure of Yong -Chun. and, although
little is known OF this movement il is sup
posed the right flank of the Japanese army
is making a simultaneous advance, and
permission being granted TO the newspaper

operations.

RUSSIA NOT WORRYING

LONDON. April 2.-The India Office has
issued long dispatches sent by Colonel
Younghusband, commanding the British
mission to Thibet. through Lord Curzon.
viceroy of India, which confirms the story
of the Associated Press concerning the en-
gagement between the British and Thibet-
ans near Curu yesterday. The dispatches
add that Lhassa general fired the first
shot, thereby melting the Thibetans to
attack, and show that but for the fact
that the Thibetans were so hemmed in that
they could not use their weapons the British
loss might have been much more serious.
Later dispatches to the Associated Press
show that so little was the onslaught ex-
pected that the British officers were eating
sandwiches and adjusting cameras. Mr..
Gambler, correspondent of the Mail, was
sitting unarmed writing He had a narrow
escape from death, receiving twelve
wounds. Colonel Younghusband and his
staff were not far distant and also were
wholly unarmed, and il is evident that but
for the personal courage an\ presence of
mind of Colonel Macdonald and his officers
a terrible disaster might have occurred.
The Thibetans displayed logged fearless
ness, apparently being appalled, by the
smalness of the British force and ignorant
of the effect of modern firearms.
The whole affair occupied only ten min
utes and, even in the retreat, the Thbetans
disdained to scatter and run and marched
solemnly in line under hail of fire.

Lieut.. Commander Edgar Towns
end Warburton Shoots Him
self in His Cabin.
SUICIDE ON A WARSHIP

PENSACOLA. Fla. April 1.-Lieutenant
Commander Edgar Townsend warburton.
chief engineer of the battleship Maine, now
in this harbor, committed suicide I'm his
cabin on board that vessel to-day. A bull
let from a revolver was sent crashing
through the brain and death resulted within
forty minutes.
The executive officer from the ship was
passing the door of Commander Warbur-
toms cabin when he was startled by the
report of a revolver within. The bullet
after passing through the brain came
through the door and struck the rail of
the ship barely missing the executive of
ficer The latter notified the other officers
and the door 10 the commanders cabin Was
forced open. He was found lying on the
floor In a pool of blood and the revolver
was grasped in his right hand. The COM
mander expired shortly afterward.
No cause is known for the officers COM
mitting the act. He appeared to be in the
best of health and spirits and within a
few weeks would have been assigned to
shore duty. Many officers express the be-
lief that death was the result of an acci-
dent and that the commander had not COM
mitted suicide. Commander Warburton had
been chief engineer of the Maine since
that vessel was placed in commission. He
was formerly on the Indiana. The body
will be shipped to Philadelphia, where his
wife resides, tomorrow.

NOBLESVILLE AGAIN
IN SERIOUS DANGER
Special to the indianapolis Journal.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
NOBLESVILLE. IND, April Last
night this city and county was visited by
another cloudburst and torrents of rain.
The streets in this city were flooded, the
sewers being unable to carry off the i'm
mense amount of water that fell. White
river began to rise in the night and has
been rising rapidly all day. Reports from
Anderson say the river is higher than il
was last week during the big flood II
this is true Nobesville probably will see a
repetition of last weeks experiences. Peo-
pie in the lower portion of this city fear
ing an overflow, began moving out of their
homes at noon today. Bottom lands along
White river and Cicero creek are flooded
and travel from the west is partially cut
off, Several rural mail carriers were unable
to make their trips.
The railroads and traction lines are MAX
ing their trips carefully, but without ref
erence to schedule time. The local repre-
sentatives of the Northern Traction Com
pany have been notified from headquarters
to look out for damaged bridges and cul-
yerts Work on the Midland bridge which
was washed out last week, has been sus-
pended The Lake Erie & Western Railroad
has a large force at work repairing the
abutments just west of the river. but will
be forced to stop work if the river con-
tinues TO rise.
The continuous heavy rains have been a
dampener on business. Farmers have been
unable to get about and outdoor labor gen.
orally has been suspended.

FIVE FEET OF WATER
IN PORTLAND STREETS S
Special to the indianapolis Journal.

Special to the indianapolis Journal.
PORTLAND Ind, April 1.-The thorough
immersion which Portland received one
week ago was repeated again last night and
to-day. So far as known lives were
lost, but the property loss in some ways
is much larger than that of week ago.
Many bridges which were left weakened by
the other flood gave way. and a dozen
large steel bridges in different parts of the
county were entirely washed out.
The Lake Erie & Western Railroad suf-
fered several serious washouts east of this
city so that no through trains could be
run on the Sandusky and Peoria divisions.
Two thousand feet of track is washed out
in one place east of this city, and several
miles of track is under water. The Grand
Rapids & Indiana Railroad suspended
traffic this morning, there being numerous
washouts along the line. The big bridge
near Geneva is badly damaged and is un-
safe.
All the business houses of the clay except
two were under water and the rescue of
people from second stories has been an all
day task Many who were driven out by
the dangerous flood of last Saturday had
moved back into their homes only yester-
day to be again driven out to-day, and
much household goods ruined. Easements
of business houses just pumped dry are
again full, and loss to stocks is large.
Not a rural mail carrier in the county
was able to leave the city postoffce. Water
stood four to five feet deep on the busi-
ness streets. The water rose an inch
every five minutes for a time and early
this afternoon had reached a point within
two inches of the record of last Saturday.
Guards were stationed on levees and at
bridges. Much livestock perished in the
county. The Wabash river north of here
is higher than ever before in it's history.
which causes additional fear here.
In the oil fields machinery has been
thrown from it's position and timbers
washed away, and the loss in that one di-
rection amounts to thousands. At New
Corydon and Geneva, both on the Wabash.
grave fears are entertained of the break
ing of the big artificial reservoir at Celina
o., which is higher by several feet than
ever before and covers over 10000 acres
this evening. Both towns are situated sew
enty feet below the big lake and directly
in the path of its waters if they should be
released.

ALL IS HARMONY At THE
CONGRESSIONAL PRIMARIES
Representative Overstreet, to Be
Renominated, Will Attend First
Convention for Years.
ARRIVES IN CITY LATE
Contests in Two Wards Lend
Spirit to the Primaries
No III Will.
ARRIVES IN CITY LATE

AS had been expected. the primaries held
yesterday for the election of delegates to
the Seventh district Republican congress
sional convention passed off harmoniously.
In but one or two wards was there even
semblance of contention. and with few ex-
ceptions there were no breaks in the states.
Some opposition developed in the Four
teenth ward, where all candidates were
members of the Morton Club, and John
Pancer, who is not a member of the club,
was put up against S. S. Cook and was
successful. There was also a slight but
friendly tilt in the Fifteenth ward.
A combination developed against the reg
ular slate, which included Theo Kemp, j.
w. Bales, William Hilman and John
Kappes. The opposition proved too strong
and carried its ticket by vote of 1S3 to 81,
electing Otto Huffman. Conrad Keller. G.
A. Wurgler. jr., and Harry Thompson.
The vote at the primaries was much
heavier than had been expected in view of
the fact that there is no important issue
to be contended at the district convention
which will be held this afternoon. 1t has
been announced that the district conven-
ton would be held in Masonic Hall, but
owing to a miscarriage of plans the hall
could not be secured and the convention
will be held in the courthouse, either in
the Circuit or Criminal Court room. The
heavy vote in the primaries indicates that
a great deal of interest is being taken in
the convention. and 1t will probably be
largely attended
The convention will be called to order at
o'clock. William L. Taylor, the district S
candidate for Governor, will pilot the meet
ing as chairman and lend his eloquence to
