All Danger From Further
High Water
Is Passed, Says Govern
ment Observer - Dis
tress Among Suffer-
ers Intensified.

Cincinnati, O., Jan. 22.-The Ohio
river has fallen very slowly but stead
lily all day and late tonight the stage
was Ga feet, over a foot below the
highest point of the food as reached
yesterday. The government observer
says all danger of further high water
is now certainly passed as a cold
wave is tonight markedly felt. A
sharp drop in temperature commenced
early today and the government
weather observer predicts that zero
will almost be reached before morn
ing.
The distress among the many flood
sufferers has of course. been intensi-
fed in most instances by the cold
wave. A fund of $16,447 raised by
appropriation and subscriptions for
immediate use is fast dwindling. At
least $4,000 is needed. Free soup
and shelter houses provided in Gin
cinnati, Newport and Covington are
constantly thronged day and night by
the hungry and shelterless. Mayor
Dempsey, aroused by stories Of ex-
i~~''r" '0r fransnortation and arti-
cles Of supply which the city needs
~. ,... ~.--- ~ Ia mood sunnerers, is
sued orders to Chief of Police Milliken
today either to confiscate or arrest in
all cases Of extortion. The police
were asked by the relief committee
to take similar action toward all peo-
pie who were imposing on the relief
station by obtaining double allow
ance Of food by Misrepresentation
The railroad situation is but slight
ly improved. The freight embargo
still embraces the whole city. Pas
senger trains are very uncertain as to
arriving time. while passengers must
still arrive and leave from points
remote. from the heart of the city.
The walls of many of the submerged
buildings have been rendered very
weak by the water and examinations
today by experts indicate great dan
ger of collapsed buildings to follow
the food. ~- r.

the Guggenbeims, it is interesting to note how thoroughly Reynolds has pre- pared for the coming combat.
 Just week ago the mass meeting of Valdez citizens was held Co act on the proposed Alaska Railway. AS everyone knows the suggestion was met With instant apprC val and large sums were subscribed to further the work. On Sunday Reynolds and the engineers and contractor rode over the iine to the canyon and planned the work to be immediately taken up. All day Monday and far into the night the work of proparation went on. Men and teams were engaged, supplies were provided for and Antonelle and Banta were on the high seas bound for Seat tie to purchase equipme ent and employ additional men. Tuesday morning the haynoldS outfit were at work before daylight, and the survey line was car ried far tu he front before the Valdez business >.cn were out of .her beds. At one o'clock sharp Governor Brady was on hand to turn the first shovel and within half an hour the grade hau been carried beyond the church cor ner From then until now there has been no secession in the work. and Saturday night Stevens wired in iron. beyond the Summit that the reconno' sance survey had been carried ever that part of the line to be bullt before snow flies.
 On "Wednesday Reynolds proceeded to ofsahlze the necessary subsidiary com palles to properly reinforce the railroad building, and began to pur chase at fair price, the necessary lands Tor railroad purposes, and otha: buj,- lnGs. Unlike the plans of previous outfits he will build in the heart of the present town of Valdez, snd every cItlzen will share in he prosperity and adva nee in values which the new rail- road will bring,
 The platfOrmTtofthe Alaska Hon O Railway is the fairest and squarcst pEoposition that was ever offered to the people, and the unanimous sun port accorded the enterprise is atn,Ie evlden ce Ci ljs popularity.
 In order to centra,ize the financial resources, Reynolds has organized q bank which opened for business with about S110,0OO.OO of local de positS and re nurces of upwards of Sl4,OO0, 000.OO, besides his private capi- tai Jesse Martin was appointed Cashier and entered Immediately upon the discharge of :lis duties.

Silver Mines are Closing.

A Leadville, COlo., dispatch says: It S said orders will be Issued here to pull the pumps from the mines Tn the downtown section, as their operation Is very expensive and cannot be main- tained at present.
 There is nothing 50 sensitive to financial stringency as the baser met als, and when they do not bring prof. itabe prices it is difficult to continue the operation of certain low-grade properties. Mining men are very op- llmlstic howe yer, and believe the low prlce will not continue long. Condi- tions are improving in New York and other eastern cities, and it is believed the present depression will improve. Silver is down 10 52 Is, and lead and zinc have dropped below profit able figures. There is no prospect of any great continuance Of this low price, and those in touch with the sit uatton say that there will be resump. tion of former values by spring at least.
 It is said that the Guggenheim mines at Leadville, instead of showing g profit of about 2O,OOO$ month, as was the case when the metals were up have been losing about lO,OOO$ ; month. This is true of other camps and it is the only reason for closing.
