PORTLAND, Nov, 16.-The food
situation In oregon has not reached
the dangerous stage at any time dur
Ing the past few days. The Villain
ette river Is rising and II is expected
the danger line will be reached to-
morrow. Reports from the willamette
valley show that all the rivers are still
rising at some points. but no serious
results are appreheneded. In eastern
oregon the food waters have done
some damage to power plants. but the
waters are now receeding and unless
there Is n further fall OF rain or warm
weather, no serious results will obtain.
In southeastern washington some
damage was done, but the water did
not nearly attain the heights or force
OF the floods OF last spring.
In the Yakima valley considerable
damage has been done to railroad and
other property. The farmers also lost
heavily. The loss Is estimated at
s2s5,0OO. The greatest damage done
In southwestern washington appears
to have occurred along the Cowlitz
river which is mighty torrent,
sweeping houses, barns, bridges and
other property before It and carrying
away millions Of feet of logs to the
Columbia. Hundreds of people in the
vicinity of Kelso, Castle Rock, Os-
trander and Lexington were forced to
flee to high ground with little or no
covering as a protection against wind
and rain, and with but little food. The
Northern Pacific has sustained serious
damage and several of its important
bridges are reported impossible. Nc
trains are moving northward and the
situation Is precarious one. The
property loss along the Cowlitz will
run into the hundreds of thousands OF
dollars So far no loss of life has been
reported anywhere in southern WASH

commenced falling and the local fore
cast for tomorrow is rain.

KALAMA, Nov. 16.-More cheering
news was received from the Cowlitz
flooded districts tonight and the gen.
eral belief is that the worst Is over,
and the waters which swept the river
clean of all shingle and lumber inter-
ests, inundated the surrounding ter
ritory and flooded the towns of Castle
Rock, Lexington, Ostrander and OLE
qua, driving the people to the hills
and high grounds for safety are be-
ginning to subside.
A message from Castle Rock says
the water there has fallen three feet,
and, barring further rains, no more
destruction Is expected. While de-
struction to property was great on
both sides of the raging river, as far
up as news can be secured, no loss
of life has been reported. Loss of
stock, however, Is reported to have
been quite heavy, horses, cattle and
hogs being washed away by the overs
flowing river. Throughout the inun-
dated district today people driven
from their homes by the food are
camping on the hills and on high
ground. Many were able to make
their way to the homes of friends and
have shelter, but large number who
were forced to flee and leave all their
belongings behind are without ade-

vinita, I. T., May 26.-The case Of
the city against w. S. stanfeld, Unit.
ed States district attorney, and his
wife for disturbing the peace, comes
up this afternoon before Mayor Shan
ahan in the city hall
Mr.. Stanfeld will be represented by
Morton Rutherford OF Muskogee and
j. S. Davenport will represent Mrs.
stanfeld.
The charge against the Stanfelds
arose Thursday night as the result of
a disgraceful row between them in
the Cobb Hotel, where they have been
living last Tuesday.
The trouble has been brewing for
some time. Mrs. Stanfeld is an ex-
tremely jealous woman. and a woman
Of high temper, especially when under
the influence OF liquor The present
outbreak dates back TO last week.
when Mrs. Stanfield received an ex-
press package addressed to Mrs. w. S.
Stanfeld, but meant for the first Mrs.
Stanfeld. The second lady OF that
name claimed it as hers. and refused
to give It up when asked to do so by
the other.
The former wife applied through an
attorney to Mr.. Stanfeld who asked
his present spouse to deliver up the
package. This she refused to do. This
was on Friday, and the two quarreled
most of the day. Mrs. Stanfeld No.
claimed that Mr.. Stanfeld had
bought the bat which the package con
tanned for the first Mrs. Stanheld and

tions.
It was about 10 O'Clock at night how
ever, that the climax was reached.
Just what happened cannot be stated
exactly, but at least there was a ter
rible row in the two rooms and in the
hall of the top floor of the Cobb hotel.
Mrs. Stanfeld No claims that she
followed her husband into a room
where she had previously seen an
other woman go who has been stop.
ping at the hotel for some time. She
says the light was out, and that when
she attempted to light It, Mr.. Stan
field seized her and attempted to push
her out of the room.
She resisted, and in tho light broke
away long enough to turn on the light
but only for an instant. as Mr.. Stan
field smashed it. Mrs. Stanheld seiz-
ed a water pitcher and broke it over
her husbands head, and, when she was
finally put out Of the room, rushed to
her own apartments, got Mr. Stan
fields rifle and returned to the fray.
She was disarned however, before
any further damage had been done.
The noise OF the fight called together
a big crowd outside of the hotel. It
sounded like bedlam broken loose.
Friday. Mrs. Stanfeld went to her
husbands office in the court house
and demanded that he open his desk
