All Efforts Directed To- ward Bringing Order Out of Chaos.

Seattle. Nov. 17.-All throughout the western part of Washington the waters of the most disastrous flood in four years are rapidly subsiding and danger from further loss is over.
 Railroads. both steam and electric, telephone and telegraph companies are making strenuous efforts to bring or der out of the chaos which the fioo6 has caused. but t will be several weeks before things are adjusted to their for mer state
 As yet it is too early to make pos sple a complete estimate of the darl age. but it is conseTvatively estimated as amounting 10 fully $l.000.000 m King county alone. l. is probable that five deaths is the limit of fatalities ir King county. The destitute are being well cared for With the exception or trains on a few spur lines. no trains are moving. but it Is hoped 10 have some sort of service in operation withi.' a day or so.

c. Fields were involved and were gone into in detail.
 District Attorney Jerome explains that Field has not been indicted be- cause it was necessary to accept him as states evidence and promise him immunity fin order to obtain legal evil dence against Gillette who Is now un- der indictment.
 Farther on he explains what led tO his obtaining the indictment of Vice President Robert s. Grannis for forg- cry for causing a false entry to be made in his account to the superin- tendent of insurance. Respecting the campaign contributions. the relation of the Mutual Life company to it's sub sidiary companies and syndicate trans actions. the district attorney shows, as under the other heads cited. that while sinister motives may be assum ed in certain of the premises, the transactions are by themselves in sufficient to prove criminal acts with in the statutes.
