1t now appears probable that no ef-
fort will be made to float the Russian
loan this year. and that the heavy ac-
cumulation of gold at Paris will be held
for several months awaiting a more pro-
pitious moment for the fiotation.
The maintenance OF this vast sum in
tact exercises pressure which has al
ready been felt in London. and must
inevitably be felt here. and II may be
surmised that the general realiza ton, at
least among bankers, OF this momen-
tous consequence OF the revolutionary

that genuine selling which was con-
spicuous in yesterdays movement of

Since it's organization little less than a

assisted in the liquidation of old debts to
a considerable amount. The coal, grocery

The formation of bureaus OF this sort Is

the inland towns along the lines of the
Omaha bureau. The Omaha ONCE receives
many requests for information as TO its

Cedar Rapids.
A river town In Nebraska recently or
ganlzed showed 1000 debtors, After the
organization of the bureau there the first
work was 10 compile a book of debtors
and other similar information. II was
then found that within a space of nve years
the merchants of the city had become
creditors TO a little more than 1000 persons

the Missouri river were at a very low
stage of water at the beginning of the
freezing season, and hence their natural
beds may be sufficient to carry off the
thaWing snow and ice and at the same
time accommodate an excessive rain pre-
cipitation.
"The prevailing conditions of snow and
cold are not dissimiar to those preceding
the big floods Of 1881, and while 1 would
not wish to say that floods approaching
their magnitude might prevail this season,
yet every preparation should be made for
even such an emergency. Hitherto in ordi-
nary winters we have had Intermittent
thaws that have helped to carry off the
accumulated snow and ice before the con-
tinued thawing weather sets in. Such a
condition has not occurred throughout the
central valleys this winter thus far, hence
the entire bulk Of snow and ice is yet
to go. Shows of the upper valley country
have not been as heavy as in this locality.
The depth of snow is much less in the
Dakotas than in Nebraska, the maximum
depth of the upper part of South Dakota
and through North Dakota being not to
exceed three inches
II merely. call attention to these matters
in order that those living in the valleys
that are subjected to floods that 1t will be
prudent for them TO prepare for whatever
emergency that may arise. l do not
think that we can hope for much thawing
weather during the remainder of Feb
ruary Just when the thaws are liable to
occur is impossible TO predict at this time,
but they will come sooner or later and it
will be well to be ready for them"

L. A. Welsh, head of the government

1t will be a good thing for the press to
call early attention to the probability of

entirely upon where the thaw first begins.
If 1t should occur that the thaw would be
gradual and normal from the warmer lati-
tudes, the surplus water would go on
slowly and but little danger need be ap-
pretended. But the likelihood is that the
thaw when 1t does come may be general
and then, with the ordinarily accompany
ing rains of the thawing season, the flood
danger is very menacing, especially In the

HARVEST TINE FOR PLUMBER
Omaha Pipe Thawers and Members Are
Working Overtime
COLD WEATHER INCIDENTAL is EXPENSIVE
Inspector Lynch Says Bill VIII Be
from $33, 900 to $4,000 for First
Month and Orders Are
Not All in Yet.

IT has cost the citizens of Omaha any
where from $4,000 to $4,000 to keep their
water and waste pipes open In their homes
and business places during the hVe weeks
of excessive cold weather. according to the
estimate of Plumbing Inspector Lynch
Mr. Lynch says that 1t is the best WIN
ter for plumbers that can be remembered
in Omaha, discounting even the old lead
pipe" days, when accidents were frequent
because of hot water running joints, con-
nections, etc. Every. man who pretends
to know anything about the plumbing or
steam fitting business has been working
long hours and earning good wages in the
city for more than month; thousands OF
dollars worth of material has been used
to replace burst and split pipes and the
unexecuted orders lying on the desks of
the master plumbers are many, as are in
cessant fresh demands on the telephone.
1T has been the hardest winter that the
plumbers know anything about" says the
Inspector "It has been absolutely impos-
sibe to keep pipes from freezing in houses
not heated by furnace, and even these
have suffered If the plumbing has been run
along outside walls. l think know some
thing about plumbing myself, but l have
not been able to keep the pipes open in my
own house, which has furnace.
Some Exact Figures.
There are about 125 journeymen plumbers
working in Omaha today, or about twenty
five or thirty more than the usual number.
Estimating that they are putting in ten
hours or two hours overtime every week
day, the wages would amount to $40 day
Adding to this a minimum of $3.50 for new
fixtures would make a total of N,l0O day
that Omaha is paying out to keep the
plumbing open We have had fve weeks
of the extreme weather and using the daily
average six days in the week. you have a
total OF S33 600 TO date This is minimum
and does not include the cost Of digging up
pipes frozen outside the houses, and these
cases are not rare"
The gas company has been put to large
expense keeping its pipes open, many hav-
ing partly frozen up in damp connections.
Complaints have been about as many as the

telephone could handle for many days Each
was answered by sending out men, who
got the gas to working by pouring electr-
city into the pipes. Some houses have had
to have attention several times.
The newest thing for thawing out pipes
the electric method-has not been used In
Omaha. It IL said that IT would lessen
plumbing bills materially, but that It would
have to be operated by the electric light
company or by electricians in connection
with the light company's wires.
