RIVER ABOVE FLOOD STAGE
Missouri Tide Goes Over the Eighteen
Foot Mark, hut No Harm In
Appreciated.

The river is within two-tenths of a foot
of the highest stage it has reached in
recent years. The record for Monday
was 1873 feet, which is three-tenths Of
a foot above the flood gauge. Fortunately
there is no flood stage at Omaha, even
with this high stage. Besides the river has
fallen two-tenths at Sioux City and one
tenth of a foot at Blair bridge and Weather
Forecaster Welsh says there is no imme.
date prospect for any further rise. The
river was stationary at Omaha Monday
forenoon, but the drift, which is somewhat
in excess of that coming down Sunday, still
continues in the center of the river, which
indicates the stationary stage. Some OBJ
servers at the Douglas street bridge insist
that the river is falling slowly. No damage
is reported from either Cutoff or Florence
lakes and the people up at East Omaha
are not alarmed, as they can stand another
half foot rise up there without an over
flow. There has been a little back wateT
into Cutoff lake, but there is no present
sign of the river cutting through.
Only a trace of rain is reported in the
upper Missouri valley in the Dakotas and
1t is not thought these can have any ap-
probable effect on the river in its present
falling stage at Sioux City and Blair.
Showers prevail in the mountain districts
and some good but none too excessive rains
are reported in southern and western Ne
braska and Kansas.

MAIL POUCH THIEF SLIPS OUT
Develops kansas City Police Once
Had the Much-Wanted

KANSAS CITY, I'M 15.-That the Kansas
City police had the thief who stole the mail
pouch which was being sent from Los
Angeles to New York and which contained
money and valuables in excess of $4,000
under arrest last week, but released him
because no definite charge was made
against hin was brought out today by an
investigation made by government inspec-
tors. The government men sent broadcast
over the United States descriptions Of him
and every effort will be made to locate
him.
The pouch was stolen. 1t develops, from
the platform of the Union depot on the
night Of Saturday, June 6. The following
day a patrolman arrested a suspicious
negro. At police headquarters he gave the
name of Charles Stewart. The desk
sergeant took a large amount OF money
and several articles OF 1ewelry from him.
Later a lawyer called at the station and
was admitted to see the negro. The charge
against him was changed to vsgrancy, the
lawyer was. given an order on the desk
sergeant for 500 and the next morning the
negro was released in police court. The
negro was ordered to leave

as If he had taken each patient alone and
on different dates. For instance, II he
took down two patients at one time, using
the same guard and the same train. he
charged two per diems, IS for himself; two
mileages, when he Travelled only one, 81;
two per diems and two mileages for the
guard, s. and 81; two facks at omaha and
two hacks at Lincoln. when he and his
guard earned only one per diem, 50 and 81,
respectively; one mileage. $3.50; one ex-
pense for guard, $3.50, instead of $11. In
stances of this kind appear frequently in
his bills, and in one instance he has taken
four patients at one time and charged the
county the same as If he made four trips
there, collecting $3.50 mileage which he
never earned and other charges in the same
proportion
In lightweight cases, the report says, he
used his own deputies or the superintend-
ent of the county poor farm or matron
Of the county Jail as guards and collected
81 per day for their services, while the
county was paying them a monthly salary.
The report says the county should not pay
these guards when they are receiving a
salary from the county.
The report further says he has collected
s107.O7 as fees for serving writs for the
district court of Lancaster county.

Several Copies of President'a Recent
Letter In Circulation.
CHICAGO, June 15.-Rumors that
Senator Lodge of Massachusetts. who is
to De- the permanent chairman OF the con.
~vention, is in possession of a letter from
President Roosevelt, intended as a damper
upon any third term movement that may
be attempted, are definitely denied by
Senator Lodge, himself. The report is be.
lieved to nave grown out of the fact that
President Roosevelt wrote a letter some
little time ego to United States Judge Day
ton of West Virginia, when it was intl-
mated that Delegates c. F. Teeter and
George w. Curtin of that state, intended
a possible disregard of their instruction,

The writing OF this letter, was referred
to at the time in Associated Press dis
patches, and It is said that several copies
Of it are in Chicago, one being in the
possession OF Senator Lodge. 1t Is gener-
ally believed that the letter will not be
read in convention. as suggested. for It Is
thought by the president and the leaders
here that the occasion for its use will rot
arise.
While It is said the letter does not con-
fine a definite repetition of President
Roosevelt's refusal to be a candidate to
succeed himself, 1t is a strong expression
Of his feeling that the violation OF instruc-
tions on the part of the delegates would
be highly improper, and contains the
statement that no friend OF his would
further any movement in behalf OF a third
term.

As the Shoes hooked After the Journey.
An interesting fact In connection with
this walk was that but one pair of shoes
was worn by each of them on the 2,l50
mile journey. and that. they never ripped
or lost a stitch during the entire trip.
The shoes worn in this contest were
made by the F. Mayer Boot and Shoe
Company, Milwaukee. who have estab-
lished a great reputation throughout the
country as manufacturers of the highest
type OF quality shoes; in consequence Of
which, the business Of this house has
had a phenomenal growth, Nine thousand
pairs per day is the present capacity OF
the Mayer factories.
AS a matter OF contrast, and to show
that there is a marked difference In
the quality of shoes. while Hay and
Jackson completed their e,46O mile trip
in a single pair OF shoes that were prac-
tically intact at the end. J. r. Suther-
land. another pedestrian, who had
reached Owosso. Mich. on a coast TO
coast walk. had worn out thirty-one
pairs Of shoes on his Journey up to the
time Of his arrival In Owosso.

F. Mayer Boot and Shoe Company are
