NO DAMAGE DONE
Feared That It Will Reach the
High Mark.

The Whitewater river is on the
boom and a regular teal and as yet
its destructive tendencies have not
been arrested. The hard rains of the
past two days are responsible for the
somewhat peculiar actions of the riv-
er. Little damage except to property
along the river banks has been report
ed as it is still within its banks al
though it is feared that it win reach
the high water mark soon.

The Array of Legal Authorities
Surrounding Taft Necessary
In the Great Fight Now I'M
pending.

Washington, Feb. 24.-Three impor-
tant policies are known here to be
receiving the most careful attention
from President-elect Taft. They are:
Honest and sincere revision of the
tariff.
Proper currency legislation to take
the place of the makeshift Aldrich-
Vreeland bill.
Control of the great corporations.
These We're the subjects, so far as
al be learned, that he discussed with
his friends on his recent visit to
Washington. 1t is expected that he
will have something to say on them
in his inaugural address,, though he is
expected to discuss the last two in
much fuller detail at the opening of
the regular session of congress next
December.
Firm as to the Tariff.
Mr.. Taft discussed the tariff with
both Speaker Cannon and Senator AL
drick when he was in Washington in
December. He went over the matter
with the ways and means committee,
and told his friends they were at
liberty to say that he would veto any
measure which he believed was not a
sincere revision. He repeated the as-
surance to Cannon and Aldrick.
The currency question is giving
him much and that is the
reason he is looking so carefully for
the right man as secretary of the
treasury. If possible. he is anxious
to obtain a finance minister who is
known to be something more than a
first-rate banker. So far as his
friends in Washington know, he is
still in the air about this important
office. p
For Corporation Control.
In his speech accepting the presi.
Dental nomination Mr.. Taft express
ed his c in the problem of the
control Of the great corporations. and
suggested the need of reorganizing
the interstate commerce commission
so tina, its work could be done more
efficiently.
1t Is pointed out that his cabinet, in
which lawyers are to predominant, is
being organized with the idea of get
ting the best possible legal advice on
the perplexing questions of combina.

Season. Rushing Women Folk
Are All Displaying Their
Spring Finery at the Many
Crowded Hotels.

Atlantic City, N. j., Feb. pa bril-
liant, happy holiday crowd, fleeing
from disagreeable winter weather of
the interior, filled the boardwalk to
it's limit and welcomed the sunshine
with all the ardor of the pagans of old.
Stretched for at least three miles,
the crowd filled the promenade from
rail to rail and police details, usually
kept in reserve until Easter, were call
ed on to keep the throng moving and
prevent congestion.
Bathers appeared, yachts at the in
let went int commission and big piers
were filled to a degree that brought
smiles to their owners faces, while the
overflow, seeking amusement, forced
the running of double electric trains TO
Ocean City and other points reached
by the suburban service.
The crowd outnumbered any former
throng seen here at the opening of the
Easter crush. Hotels were filled last
night, and "standing-room-only'' signs
went up today in the hotel dining
rooms long before the majority Of the
crowd had left the promenade and
ven avenue restaurants were called on
to feed the hungry newcomers.
Virtually every train since noon
yesterday came in sections of a dozen
cars each. Wary ones who had wait
ed until this morning to assure them
selves that the weather man had not
gone wrong in promising sunshine
made a constant stream of humanity
between depots and beach until after
noon.
