APACHE COUNTY FLOODS
Facts Concerning the St. JOhts and
 Woodruff Dams.

W. A. Parish received a telegram from HoIbrook last evening stating briefly that not only had the St. Johns dam been washed away but the Wood ruff dam midway between Holbrook and St. Johns. That however was ex- pected for the upper dam was the larger and would naturally take away the lower dam. The telegram further stated that the town of Woodruff was practically destroyed but there was very little damage done at HOibrOok though the village of probably 200 peo- pie had 9 close call. The people had most of them moved to other ground together with all their transportable effects. The town is built on a sandy bank about twelve feet above the river bed. This bank was washed away to within few feet of some of the houses before the flood began to recede.
 MT. Parish is in charge of the guag- ing stations of the U. s. geological sur vey in Arizona and returned from Hol- brook yesterday morning having been at Woodruff a couple of days before to install 9 gauging station. About a month ago he installed a similar sta tion at Holbrooll. He was asked yes erday a few questions concerning the topography of the country and in re- lation to the dams.
 Mir. Parish said that both Woodruff and Holbrook were directly on the river bank, Holbrook being built mainly on d strip 9 few hundred feet wide be- tween the railroad track and the river It is about seventy-two miles from Holbrook to St. Johns where the upper and larger dam was situated. This dam was an earthen structure about forty feet high and it formed a lake approx imately mile and a half wide and four miles long. This was a body of water of decidedly formidable size. Last month when he was up there MT. Parish said there was considerable un- easiness concerning the dam. The wa ter was drawn from it by means of a pipe at the bottom which was regulat- ed with a gate operated with a chain from the top of the dam. In some way the chain had been broken and there seemed to be no way of repairing it. The water was then within ten feet of the crest of the dam and the indications were that there would be more of it very soon from rains and melting snows. and there was no way of releas- ing any of the stored water. It would appear in the light of later events that the water kept raising until it spilled over the top.
 Between St. Johns and Woodruff the. PuercO river empties into the Little Colorado and though it was naturally carrying some water it is not known

R. kee1e's S-year-old Sysonby and O. l.. Rich ards hardy 4-year-o old Race King 3in- ished so close together that the judges were unable to separate them Both owners announCed their satisfaction with the result as it stood and the purse, amounting to more than $14,- 900. was divided. Sysonby was the favorite in the betting. his stable mate. Delhi, having been withdrawn. Long odds were offered to the public on Race King, but there were few who thought highly of the Tenny colts chance. The time of the race was dis appointing. showing that the Belmont tracks are still ''naw'' and slow.
 More than 50.000 persons saw the race Racing men of prominence came from all parts of the United States to take part in the inauguration of the new headquarters of the jockey club, the governing body of eastern racing.
 Added to the intense interest dis played in the new track came the Un- expected result in the Metropolitan handicap, which never before in its history. extending back to 1891, has been marked by a dead heat The en- thusfasm of the great crowd was un- bounded as the two highly trained thO- roughbreds came pounding down the long stretch, nod for nod. The scene was thrilling. Beldame, the chamipon Ally of last year, was forgotten and in the ruck at the finish. A half score of other thorOughbreds never were thought of as the two leaders rushed past the judges stand.
 An even dozen thoroughbreds went to the post, Delhi, Roseben. LeonIdas Pasadena. Tanya and Siglight having been withdrawn. After the scratching of Delhi, Sysonby was the favorite ct odds of to 1. Beldame was played heavily at 4 to 1. These two carried the bulk of the wagers.
