Remove Plant to Safer
Location.

Clifton, Ariz., Dec. 6.-The San Fran
cisco river is rapidly carrying away
the flood caused by the bursting of the
Detroit Copper company's dam on Mon
day, which brought death to many per
sons and damage that will amount up
into the thousands AS the weather
has cleared. no further damage is fear
ed. Latest estimates place the num-
ber of dead at IS.
AS the waters recede some idea OF
the damage can be gained. Sweeping
down the valley seven feet high, the
waters twisted buildings from their
foundations and scattered debris for
miles.
Two bodies were recovered from the
wreckage along Chase creek yester-
day Joe ThrOm, who was rescued
from the flood and whose wife was lost,
was taken to the hospital in a serious
condition, but will probably recover.
Three men. caught in the act of loot
ing. who refused to surrender, were
shot and fatally wounded.
Many Residences Destroyed.
Only one business house along Chase
creek escaped damage Many were en-
tirely destroyed.
