LITTLE LOSS OF LIFE
SIX PERSONS so FAR DROWNED
IN FLOODS IN THE PUGET
SOUND REGION.

Seattle, Wash, Nov. IA heavy
rainfall Wednesday, 2.4S inches In four
hours, and a chinook wind which melt
ed recent fresh SHOWS in the Cascade
mountains, coming simultaneously, are
the causes of the most disastrous
foods in the history of the Puget
sound region. The valleys Of the
White, Duwamish, Cedar, Green,
Stuck, Black and Puyallup rivers are
under water, flooding 200 square miles
of territory. This includes practically
every acre of lowland lying back of
the eastern shores of the sound and
extending from Seattle to Tacoma.
The plant at Electrine is submerged,
and Seattle and Tacoma are depend
ent on their local auxiliary slations
for power to move street cars ano oro-
vide electric lights. The local plans.
however, have fuel enough to operate
several days.
Six persons have been drowned.
High tides, combined with the
floods, have converted all the river
deltas, which are great tracts OF fer
tile farms, into muddy torrents, hun
dreds of farmhouses and villages are
submerged to the second stories and
many persons are homeless. The loss
to the Northern Pacific alone will
reach $780, 900 and the total loss on
the district will run to $500. 900.
