MANY WESTERN TOWNS.

SEATTLE, Wash, March 2.-Water
from the melting shows in the noun
tains. augmented by local rains, has
made raging torrents of all the streams
in central and western Washington,
and today the towns in the lowlands
are facing serious floods. From all
parts of the State reports are being
received showing that the rivers are
rising rapidly.
The snowfall in the mountains is un-
precedented. amounting to more than
eight feet on the level. The intake of
the pipe line that brings drinking
water to Seattle from the mountains
is threatened by the rising waters Of
Cedar river. and the city water de-
partment has sent a force of men to
the danger point.

Influences at Work.

in Trenton and last night there was a
smile at the innocence of Assemblyman
Peter James, Of Hudson. and of the
correspondents who sent out
the story Of the efforts to get his bill,
House 81, out Of committee. On the
face of things, it is a meritorius re-
form measure. It gives to municipali-
ties the right to say whether or not
trunk telephone lines shall run through
their streets. and provides that consent
for all such lines must be procured by
ordinance before any wires may be
strung. In short. it 50 changes Section.

Praises for somIner.

Frank H. Sommer. who today is lee
turing in the New York Law School,
is being congratulated right and left
for the able way he handled the tele-
phone inquiry for the EVENING
STAR. Mr.. Sommer was gratified
when he learned what the House COM
mittee had recommended. He declared
that he was not surprised, and added
that with the mass of evidence that
had been presented against the tele-
phone trust there was no alternative
for the committee but to continue the
INQUIRY to it's fullest extent. When
the probe is finally inserted in real
earnest Mr.. Sommer will spring a few
surprises, for he did not go as deep as
he might have into the monopohstlc
features of the case. Persons, now
encouraged by the prospect of reVolu-
tionizing the telephone situation In
New Jersey. will 10Y come Onward
