fRv Associated press.l

& HANFORD, Cal, June 5.-Breaks in
the levees have caused the flooding of
many acres of land in this vicinity.
Twelve feet of water is now rushing
through 6O-foot break in the second
Ievee on the south side of Kings river
directly north of this city.
Much water is also coming through q
2O-foot break 200 feet farther down.
The warm days during the first part OF
this week caused a large increase in
the flow of the Kings river, which an
engineer reports has been carrying
more water than during the floods of
three years ago.
The channel was cleaned out this
winter, however, and no danger was
anticipated though the levees were
closely watched.
The breaks occurred early this morn
ing after the watches had gone home.
Several minor breaks on tributary
streams are reported.
The families living along the river
are moving to escape a possible 1ood..
Considerable damage has already been
done, but a large force of men is at
work and it is expected the breaks will
soon be closed.
Water is now passing through the
culverts under the Santa Fe tracks
three miles below the big break on TO
the highly improved farms to the west
and south. Hanford is in no imme-
diate danger of being flooded.

WASHINGTON, June 5.-RespOnding
to resolution introduced in the senate
by Mr.. Beveridge. an exhaustive report
made by the bureau of corporations on
information collected affecting the price
of tobacco, was sent to the senate today
by President Taft.
Commissioner Smith says that any con-
siderati0n of the subject of the tobacco
industry in recent years is necessarily
largely a consideration of the relation of
the tobacco combination to the industry.
1t is stated the tobacco combination
controls substantially three-fOurths of
the business of manufactured tobacco
other than cigars in the United States.
To show the extent of this business it is
stated that the output of the indepen-
dent concerns excluding cigars now
amounts to $50, ,OOO,O 900 a year.

MEXICO CANNOT
COMPETE IN OIL
DATA GAINED BY BIOLOGIST
GIVEN TO PUBLIC
Demand for Free Petroleum in South
ern Republic viii for Many Years
Exceed the Available
Product
(By Associated Press.s

WASHINGTON, June 5.-President
Taft and Secretary Ballinger have
reached the conclusion that it would
not be inconsistent with the interests
of the public service to diyulge the de-
tails of the information gathered in
the oil fields of Mexico recently by DR..
C. w. Hayes, chief geologist. This de-
cision was communicated to the sem
ate today in a message. The conclu-
sions on the report are stated as fol-
lows:
while these fields promise to yield
a large quantity of crude oil, its quail
ity is such that it cannot compete
under present conditions in the mar
kets of the United States or Europe
with the higher grade petroleum of the
Appalachian, Illinois or midcontinent
fields. Further, the conditions are such
that the demand for fuel oil and re-
fined products in Mexico exceed the
supply available at present or in the
future.
Coal Scarce in Mexico
"There is practically no coal in Mex
leo and the railroads now dependent
upon Texas, Oklahoma and English
coal could consume several times the
production of oil II 1t were generally
adopted as fuel.
"The increased production in the
Mexican fields, therefore, will affect
the United States by reducing the de-
mand for coal by reducing the de-
mand for high grade crude oil for re-
fining to supply the local market and
to some extent by competing in the
European market with American re-
fined products.
'F'inally, the conditions in the Mex
lean fields are not favorable for the
small operatives and it is highly prob
able that production as well as retn-
ing will remain in the control of few
strong companies"

n PHILADELPHIA, June 5.-With the
calling off late last night of the
u strike of the motormen and con-
ductors of the Philadelphia Rapid
Transit company, normal street car
service was resumed today on all lines.
There was some confusion about the
car barns in the early hours in assign
ing men to various runs. Nearly every
dray and express wagon in Philadel-
phia was pressed into use as passenger
vehicles when 1000 street car men went
on strike. All the street railways in
the city except the Willow Grove line
were tied up, and draymen reaped a
harvest by hauling people to and from
their homes and places of business.
The strikers sold papers on the streets
and in one instance pressed hand or
gan into service and paraded near the
company's headquarters, playing wait
for the Wagon" Many of the trades
unions passed resolutions assessing a
fine of from 81 to $5 against any of
their members caught riding in street
cars. These photographs were taken
near the American league ball grounds
just after a game, when expressmen
were soliciting passengers for a down.

T INDIANAPOLIS June 5.-The first
annual balloon race for the aerial
Il championship of American is on,
with the contestants apparently headed
for Georgia, and the thousands who
watched the nine big aerostats leave
the speedway grounds this afternoon
are wondering whether they are all
continuing in the course southward or
veering in some other direction. The
three balloons entered in the handicap
event got away first, and were fol-
lowed by the six entries in the national,
championship of the Aero club or
America. All sailed southwark, thus
making many experts miss their
guesses that the course would be to the
northeast over the great lakes and into
Canada.
The indications were slight as to the
probable course to be taken, and the
weather forecast was for light and
variable winds at the time of starting.
The pilots will drop frequent messages
giving data on their voyages, but IL
will likely be tomorrow afternoon be-
fore a general report can be made up
of the positions of all the balloons.
