STREAMS ON A RAMPAGE.

Seattle, Mar. 3.-Most Of the rivers
of western Washington overfioWed
their banks today and continue to
rise, high temperatures melting the
mountain snow. TLe forecast is for
warm weather through Washington
and light rain on Puget Sound.
All lowlands between Seattle and
Tacoma are submerged, forming an
enormous inland sea in which banks
of the White, Black and Duwamish
rivers are lost. The flood came so
gradually that no loss Of life or live
stock occurred. Many farmers have
moved into upper stories of their
homes and travel in boats. The
Northern Pacific railway is having
difficulty in keeping it's line open on
the west slope of the Cascades, as
Green river is torrent. The OFF,
Gals of the railroad are not hopeful
of maintaining service to Portland.
The rain fall has been heavy in Ced-
ar Valley, threatening to cut off
Seattle's water supply. The Chicago,
Milwaukee and Puget Sound railway
which by turning the course of the
aqueduct, is making a hard fight to
control the river.
The river is receeding at Colfax,
leaving several feed of mud in the
STREETS. Foundations of many build
ings are undermined. Fresh water
is being supplied by carts.
IND AIN SEpxrCE DENfOp av,1zED
Aberdeen, WASH, Mar 3.-Train
service on the Northern Pacific be-
tween Greys Harbor and Puget
Sound is demoralized by the floods
in intermediate territory having
been inundated. The new grade OF
the Chicago, Milwaukee and Puget
Sound road at Rochester has been
carried away in sections.

RECESS TAKEN BY COUNTY COURT
Unsavory Divorce Case Tried Friday A.
ternoon and Evenlne-lnterestlng Doc
uments In French Raymond Case.

After devoting Friday afternoon and
evening TO the trial OF the contested di-
vorce case OF Rosie Barnes OF Brattle-
boro against Truman Barnes a recess TO
July 10 was taken by the Windham county
court Saturday morning. In the interim
Judge Miles will preside at the county
court in Middlebury. The Barnes dl-
vorce petition was based on the allega-
ton of intolerable severity. Many wit
nesses We're examined and most of the
testimony was of an unsavory character.
No decision was given. c. 5. Chase APP
peared for Mrs. Barnes and a. p. Car
penter represented her husband.
one Of the cases which will be taken
up after the recess is that of Watson S.
French OF Brattleboro against r. Ray
mond, which is a petition by French to
have the award of the arbitrators. which
was made two years ago, set aside. The
award was in favor Of Raymond. Judge
Miles gave French permission to file an
amended bill on or before June l and gave
the defendant leave to answer on or be-
fore June IS.
French filed his amended bill Wednes-
day He claims that the award was diff
ferent from what it would have been eX-
cept for what he alleges was wicked
wrongful and fraudulent conduct on the
part of Raymond. According to French's
story he expected that his son-in-law,
Joseph Paul. would testify in his behalf
He alleges that Raymond induced Paul
to go out Of the state in order that he
might not be called as witness, and he
says that on account of the relationship
he did not summon Paul before the latter
left the state, relying upon his promise to
appear when wanted He alleges that
when he learned that Paul had gone he
telephoned to Greenfield, Mass, and
learned that Paul had been there, but
had gone away He alleges that after
making diligent but unsuccessful search
to locate Paul he asked the arbitrator
to continue the hearing in order that he
might not be obliged to submit his case
without Paul's testimony.
The defendants answer will include af-
fidavits to the effect that Paul was with-
in three miles Of French's place of resi-
dence throughout the hearing and might
have been procured IL wanted, and II will
include also afiidavits by the arbitators
that no request for a continuance on ac-
count of Pauls absence was made to
them and there was no mention of Paul
at the hearing. An affidavit by one of the
arbitra tors states that the original re-
port Of the testimony was turned over to
one of Frenchs lawyers, who asked per-
mission to make a copy of 1t, and that 1t
never has been returned and cannot now
be found, although what purports to be a
copy has been given him.
