GREAT DISTRESS PREVAILS
Hundreds Of French Towns Suffer
From Floods.

Paris, Oct. 17-Dispatches from the
center and south of France confirm
the worst reports Of destruction
caused by the floods. The Rivers
Loire, Rhone and Saone and their
tributaries are raging torrents, the
water in some places being the high
est ever recorded. In hundreds of
cities and towns there is from two to
ten feet Of water in the streets. Great
distress has resulted.
Railroad traffic is utterly disorgan-
lied. At places the roadbeds have
been washed away and the stations
are under water
Fortunately the storm center is
now moving seaward, the weather
clearing and the worst appears to be
over.

GREEK PADR0NEs INDICTED
Violation Of immigration Laws the
CHARGE,

Chicago, Oct 19-The federal grand
jury in this city has returned indict-
ments against eight Greeks charging
them with violation of the immigra-
ton laws. It is claimed that they
have been acting AS .padrones and
have been making false s~af1davits to
the immigration Inspector"
1t is claimed that the indicted men
have housed the boys brought into
this country in unsanitary places in
order to decrease the expense of their
keeping. The consequence has been,
it is said, that a large percentage of
the Greek boys brought here in vio-
lation of the immigration law become
consumptives and are then turned out
by the padrones to be public charges.

TO VACANT SEE.
Possible Appointment of Rev. DR..
Edmund Thomas Shanahan.

The departure of Rev. Edmund Thomas
Shanahan from the Catholic University
yesterday for his home. Jamaica Plains,
Boston, has resulted in interesting comment
in reference to his predicted appointment
to the vacant of Fall River, Mass. DR..
Shanahan is professor of dogmatic theology
at the university, and 1t is said he will be
absent until April 4. 1t is added that the
suffragan bishops of the archdiocese of
Boston are to meet in that city in Easter
week, and will, it is believed, submit the
three names selected by them as suitable
candidates for the vacant see of Fall River
DIR. Shanahan- has already been placed
first on the list of those selected by the
priests, and it is regarded here as certain
that ne will be also the first choice of the
bishops. DIR. Shanahan is conceded to be
one of the most scholarly members of the
Catholic University staff. He was educated
at Boston College, the propaganda in Rome,
and the Roman Seminary. and after taking
his theological degrees he was teacher
of philosophy and dogmatic theology in the
American College in Rome. He was lee
turer philosophy in the University of
Pennsylvania before coming to the Catho-
lie University.

BOTH FAVOR|T[S BEATENINPOOL
 CONTESTS
Tupper Badly Beaten bp Dun lop, While in Most Exciting Game of Tournament Chris tian Goes Down to Defeat.

The biggest surprise of the pool tournament which is now in progress at the Copper Queen hotel. came last evening when A. G. Dunlop defeat ed in a most decisive manner. w. T. Tupper. who, at that time, had been an odds-pn favorite to win the first prize. In the second contest after a very close game, in which each man had the lead several different times, H. s. Zeismer defeated J. P. Christian by a score of 100 to 93.
 All day yesterday and last eveninP up until the middle of the contest, Tupper was considered a sure winner. having defeated Col. L. W. Powell at the beginning of the contest by big margin There was hardly anyone who thought that Dunlop had a chance, so that when the game was commenced the interest was compa:- atively small except the fact that it was a contest between two Of the scratch men.
 From he beginning of the game Dunlop played in good form, never once showing any sign of being ner- vous, while Tupper, who was confi- dent at the beginning, became ner- yous as the game progressed. As a matter of fact it seemed that Tupper was unfortunate in being left safe on almost every shot his opponent miss ed as well as placing himself in d ficult positions after making brilliant plays. In justice to Dunlop, however, it must be said that he played an ex- cellent game all through and much superior to his opponent This places him, in the third round of the contest with Girand, Kirk and Zeismer.
 The finish of the second game call ed forth more enthusiasm than any that has been played in the tourna- ment owing to the magnificent
 ish. After the score had been tb,, and one or the other of the contest ants had taken the lead and been again passed it, came finally to thr point where Christian (95) needed seven points to win and Zeismer (90) needed four. It looked as if Christian would win easily as the spectators believed Zeismer unequal to the shot which was left him. Here came the surprise, when with four brilliant shots the handicap man finished up the contest, the score being 100 Jo @ The crowd in the billiard room went wild with excitement.

 Finally, it is stated in the literature that there is dependable ore body of about S3yO00, ,O00 tons which will average per cent or better and in the engineers report there is an edi- torial note which modestly states, passing the assertion on a preceding theory, iihis would indicate an ore body equal to about 225,000, 900 tons" This note would also appeal to an outsider who would not be aware that the Copper Queen Consolidated Mining Company with it's miles and miles of underground workings, modern mach inery and deep shafts, mining at it's present rate of $500 tons of ore dai could not mine 225,000,000 tons in ITO years.
 There are other points in the lit- erature too numerous to mention at the present time, calculated to make person believe that the finding of a most wonderful mine was merely a matter of sinking shaft and cart ing away the ore

COUNCIL SAYS PERMIT IS
 VOID
City Attorney Ordered to h. Stitute Proceedings Against Louis Andrews to Stop Work On Building Declared Illegal.

At the meeting of the city council last night the question of the building permit issued to Louis Andrews for the erection of a house composed of materials other than those provided by the city ordinance for structures inside the fire limits, was settled by the adoption of a resolution based on the opinion of the city attorney to the effect that the permit Is void, and instructing the city attorney to in siue proceedings against the owner of the building to stop further work thereon.
 The city attorney delivered some what lengthy opinion in which he said that the city ordinance having pre- scribed the character of building which may be erected inside the fire limits, structure of any other char acter is contrary to law and that as no one had a right to issue a permit for the performance of an illegal aci the action in granting the permit was not binding on the city. He further said that all persons were charged with a knowledge of the law and therefore immunity could not be claim ed by them. A resolution in conform ity with this opinion was unanimous ly adopted and the perplexing problem was dropped without further discus sion: Two bids were read for laying extensions to the fire mains. one by D. Hassler of 59 cents a foot for pipes and S10 each for hydrants, and another by Hogan & Daly of 5S cents a foot for pipes, this to include hy- drants The latter bid was accepted and it was agreed that the contractors shall give bond to the city of 5000 as a guarantee that the. contract will be performed in accordance with the specifications, the work to be begun as soon as the bond is approved and completed within sixty days, not count ing time when the work may be de layed by the city in establishin. grades, etc.
