STREAMS OVERLOOKING.
High Water Threatens Much Damage
in Oklahoma.

Oklahoma City, Okla, April lit
has been raining here without cessa-
tion for the past thirty-six hours un-
til today, and many streets in the city
are flooded and street car traffic is
badly interrupted. Serious results are
expected to follow. The rivers and
streams in this section of the territory
were rising rapidly from the melting
of the snow in the Colorado mountains
before the rain began, and the re-
ports reaching this city from the
western part of the territory this ev-
ening state that the North and South
Canadian rivers are out of their banks
and serious damage to farms where
the bottom land has been sown to
wheat is feared. The prediction is
made here tonight that there will be
n food similar to that of two years
ago, when so many bridges went out
and railroad property was damaged
thousands of dollars worth.
