LAUGHED At FLOOD.
La Bretagne's Passengers Tel
of Pdrisions Jokes.

La Bretagne, the first modern ark to ar
rive here from France since the flood came
in yesterday. She had a man named Noah
on board, but he was in the steerage. and
made no effort to command the expedition
Those on board who had no idea of running
away to salvation, knew that the waters
of the Seine were rising as the hydro
graphic department. of Paris had warned
the populace that the river might over
flow her banks.
The passengers said Yesterday that on
January q, the day before sailing from
Eavre, the rising water was looked upon
much joke. The subway had been
flooded on January 81, but IT was generally
thought that the freshet was of an ephem-
eral nature Crowds went over the bridges
and observed the river. The water was
higher than usual, but there was no alarm
among the spectators.
Many of La Bretagne's passengers con-
sidefed the flood incident as closed when
they sailed from Havre, but wireless re
ports received at sea caused them some
anxiety, and after the third day out every
one watched anXiously for news from
France
a wireless report received during the
latter half of the voyage announcing that
the Eiffel Tower vas shaky and likely to
fall was a bomb of CONSERVATION. Some
Of La Bretagne's passengers had friends
and relatives living near the tower, and
lust which direction the big structure would
fall and how far its great length would
reach was a matter OF much unpleasant
speculation aboard ship.
Mrs NJ L. INITIAL, OF No. 50 Madison
avenue who was passenger, said that
curious crowds swarmed along the banks
of the Seine TO watch the food rise, but
that there was no alarm felt in Paris the
day before she sailed from Hayre. The
French people treated the matter SO light
" she said, that such expressions BE
careful: don't get your feet wet" were
passed along among strangers as A Jest
Paul ". Linebarger, Il judge III the Phil!
ippines, who is on his way to his home III
Milwaukee was another passenger lie
the public several days before the flood
gained any headway that the rising of the
Seine was a serious matter The hydro
graphic Office announced that the rivers
would rise, and predicted almost the hour
when the flood would be at its height.
But the people did not take the predic-
ton seriously" said Judge Linebarger
They crowded the bridges, looking at this
rising water, and many curious Americans
were in the crowds. Several of the bridges,
which were black with people when [ saw
them, are now washed away The big
sewer system of Paris is responsible for
much OF the trouble The ramifications OF
the underground system make ths city uil-
safe to repei a fiood | think the govern
nent realizes this now. Paris has been

Insurgents.

Mexico City. Jan. 31-In d statement
given TO personal friend for pubilca-
ton after his departure from this city
Jose Santos Zelaya former President Of
Nicaragua, who left here last night for
Belgium. made the startling statement
that he was tricked by the United States
into providing the revolutioniSts an ad-
vantage during the early stages of the
insurrecton in his country. He said:
Our army had defeated the revolu-
tionists on the San Juan River and was
marching on Bluefelds. The revolt
would have ended in a week, when sud
denly the United States asked us TO de-
clare a truce While terms of peace could
be discussed. The truce was declared,
and before operations were resumed the
insurgents received a large shipment of
arms and ammunition from the United
States. After that followed the battle
of Rama. in which the government army
was defeated. We were tricked and
played like figures in a game of chess
by the powerful influence at Washing
ton until the advantage was given over
20 the other side. just rs Washington
had planned
THE American government is still de-
ternined that the insurgents shall win,
but its pretence of neutrality, while arms
and men came down on every boat from
the United States. prevents ii from max

rifice of thousands of innocent lives

Zelaya said that the execution of
Groce and Cannon was a mere Incl

The United States had previously de-
cided that l should be overthrown,' he
added ''Sparing the lives of Groce and
Cannon would not have altered the plan
of Washington. The policy of over
throwing my government WAS planned
before Groce and Cannon had been heard
of as factor in the situation"
AS a parting shot Zelaya predicted
that in the future Nicaragua would
probably be ruled by large American
corporations which seek monopoIies in
that country"
