Kansas City, Mo-, June 15.-The

reached it's crest, drew hundreds of
thousands of sightseers today to the
bluffs overlooking the flooded bot
TOMS The water has done all the
damage that is in it's power The
railroad yards have been evacuated;
the packing houses and business
houses have vacated their lower floors;
Armourdale has been entirely aban-
doned by it's $4,000 inhabitants and
water is running Y feet deep in it's
streets. There is no excitement any
where, the eyicted people having
found shelter for themselves and their
movable property. There is nothing
to do but wait for the tide to turn
as the weather bureau says it will
tomorrow. The weather today was
generally fair in the Kaw watersheds,
with only a light shower here and
there, and this inspired hopeful feel
ing. Weather Observer Connor says:
"a height not to exceed 81 feet will
be reached in both rivers. The Mis-
souri, was at 80 feet at p. M, rise
of three inches since noon and rising
half an inch an hour. The Kaw was
294 feet above low water at p. m.
and rising at the same rate as the
Missouri. 1t is impossible to predict
the duration of the high water or
set an hour for it's recession, because
of the weather conditions. Rain is
still threatened in the north and west"
The Kaw is discharging freely into
the Missouri and is expected to fall
before the Missouri does. The Kaw
receded seven inches at Topeka last
night and continues to fall. At St.

difficulty has been that having two

and three counties and
interstate railroads are in

the Kaw a navigable stream. This
gives the war department power to |
order the removal of the Union Pa
cific and Missouri Pacific low bridges |
which obstruct the river and cause

Of raising the banks of the Kaw would
involve elevating the railroad tracks.
One measure proposed is to cut a
canal across the point of land where

GARY'S FIRST DIRECTORY
IS BEING CIRCULATED
Census of New Steel City Shows It's Population to Be
About Five Thousand and It's Business
Houses Are Increasing.

The first edition of the Gary city
directory is now being circulated
throughout the city. The most inter-
esting statistics which has been COM
piled for the book is the number of
inha bitants in Gary up to June l, over
IS years of age. This was found to be
1852, which forms the best basis that
has been produced for an estimation
of the present population of the city.
Judging from that census the present
population of Gary is 5000 persons.
This estimate does not however, in
every sense of the word do the city
justice. At the present time the popu-
lation of the city is increasing rapid

ton which exists in this city, it is al
together probable that several hun
bred people have located in the steel

Washington, July AFTER a battle
that lasted four and one-half hours
this afternoon the White Sox tabled up
two victories over the Nationals in
their double bill at National park. The
score of the first game was 1 to O.,
but the second contest required thir-
teen innings of red hot playing that had

was to 4. three of the seven runs be-
ing made by the Sox in the thirteenth
after they had tied up the game in the
ninth by pushing two men over the
plate.
The opening battle was between Doc
White and Bill Burns the old time OPP
ponents. Doc was able to put another
dent in the aspirations of the Sena-
tors. but 1t was by the hardest kind of
labor and by the aid of a passed ball
that he managed to do it. In the sec

PROFESSOR ON STAND.
Rockefeller Celebrates Birthday

county, New York where the worlds
first Millionaire was born in 1889. His
parents moved to Cleveland, o., while
the son was very young. Here he re-
ceived good common school educa-
ton.
1t is a fact that Mr.. Rockefeller
stands at the head of six or seven men
in the United States who have show
cred their wealth on charitable and
philanthropic undertakings. The Uni
versity of Chicago stands at the head
of the institutions which have received
large individual gifts from Mr.. Rookie
Teller. 1t has always been a favorite
with the Standard Oil king and the
magnificent endowments by him have
enabled that institution to develop,
within a comparatively short time. from
poor and rather inefficient institu-
tion of learning into one of the finest
universities in the country, modern in
its methods, progressive and highly eff
ficient to results.
1t has been estimated that Mr.. Rookie
Teller, in addition to being the head of
the oil trust, is the controlling influ-
ence in more than fifty banks and
trust companies of the United States.
and in sixty per cent OF the railroad
corporations of the nation that the
control of the steel industry is prac-
tically within his grasp. In addition
to all that Mr.. Rockefeller is reputed
to be interested in about five hundred
other corporations. 1t is, OF course,
extremely difficult to obtain an even
approximately correct estimate of his
wealth In 1905 it was estimated at
| $3.50 900, 000 while a present his wealth
is probably between eight hundred and
nine hundred millions. During the last
few years the annual increase of his
! wealth was estimated at about $685.
| 600, 900. At this rate the Rockefeller
fortune would reach, on his one hun
! dredth birthday, in 1899, the fabulous
total of nearly $4,000, 900 900, drawing
an income of about $4,000 a second
| This is more than many millions OF
| men ever accumulate in lifetime
! Even in 1904, when Mr.. Rockefeller die
not have much over half billion OF
dollars, his income was a trife more
than 81 for every second. The average
men. earning 81 a day can appreciate
the difference there is between 81
day for six days a week and So a sec
ond for seven days a week
