Many historical buildings have been
totally destroyed or So seriously dam
aged that there is but small hope of
saving them. Art treasures of priceless
worth have been lost and buildings in
timately connected with Frances glory
are crumbling before the onrush of the
ravenous floods.
Brief Respite.
At noon yesterday the Seine had
ceased rising, and it was thought that
the worst was past. but few hours
later the Mortified watchers saw the
tide steadily mounting up the gauges
and it was realized that the tale of
horror had not yet been told
The business Of the public depart
ments is at standstill. The foreign
Office has been abandoned, the waters
having driven the attaches from the
buildings.
Already the water in the basement
of the Louvre has reached dangerous
depths. The Palais Mazarin is flooded
The walls of the buildings have so far
resisted the floods, but none can tell at
what moment they will give way.
The Isle du Palais the ancient city
of Paris, is under water. The basement
of the church of Notre Dame is flooded.
The walls Of the Palals de Justice are
awash.

 The president expressed hope that it would not be necessary to apply the maximum rates against Canada, thus bearing out the reports of yesterday that negotiations with the Dominion had taken a favorable turn.
 Seven months of the new tariff have proved a number of things said the president First, that it is the best revenue setter we have ever had: sec ond, that it has shown the largest free list: third, that the rates of the Ding ley hill have been materially reduced; fourth. that by the creation pf a GUS toms court, il has provided the means for a speedy and just administration of the customs law; firth. that il has provided free trade with the Philip pines. q measure of justice that should have been given as far back as 1900"

Preliminary t. any explanation ar the provisions of the bill. MT Elkins admitted tht- truth Of the charge that the amend ments proposed had not been consid- cred at length in the committee. but he defended that course on the ground that the differences over the amend ments were so great that they would have to be fought out on the floor anyway.

He said the shippers and traffic associa- ti0ns had consulted with the preSi- dent and attorney general who draft ed the bill. they favored the presi- dents recommendations.
 on the subject whether the rsrii- roads themselves are for ar against the bill. Mir Elkins said: According to common report. six or seven presi- dents of the most important railroads waited on the president at the While House. and endeavOred to induce him to consent to certain changes. bHt he refused. SO far as l know. the rail roads oppose the bill"
 In the course of colloqu0y. MT Cummins admitted that the attorney general had made one change at MF. Cummins' suggestion. and he added. Tt was a wise provision.

 Yes" said Mir Cummins. -If yan would take all my suggestions il would be better"
 "If we took all your suggestions retorted Mir Eikins. T don't know what would become of the country. We certainly would not run railroads.
