Awful Rain Storm
 Strikes Phoenix

Phoenix, Jaly 3-Sunday night this city suffered the worst rain storm in it's history.
 Swollen by thirty-six hours down pour of rain, the waters of the irriga. ton canals yesterday forenoon passed the breaking point.
 The banks of the great canals gave way before the terrific pressure 9s though they had been barriers If shifting sands; and the waters of the great irrigation system swept to the south and west across the valley and even to the city of Phoenix.
 From tte best information obtaina ble the loss will run from $6O,OOO to $1OO 900.
 These figures include the damage 70 the government project, to the pub lie highways. to the street car, tele- phone and electrict light companies to the individual ranchers and farmers, to the railroad companies and to the residents of the city Itself.
 O1 course, however, the list of daln- age is not all in yet and it may run to $15O,OOO
 The owners of small ranches of ten to twenty-five acres in many instances have suffered severe loss. The alfalfa crop has been damaged, and the same thing is true of the melon crop The cant:,loupe season is just at it's heieht and large shipments were to have been made to-day or tomorrow. The melons that were just ready to pick and those just ripening suffered se- vnrely. The sler'n came at one of the worst imaginable times for the mel. on growers.
 Throughout all of Saturday, Sunday and part of Monday the streets of the city were mud where they were I)t water and water where they were not mud 4 torrent of water released by the breaking O. the Salt River canal, near the Union High school, swept down across the city. carrying mud and debris into the houses and piling masses of sand on the sidewalks. At almost the same time from another break in the canal near the park, a torrent rushed down from the west, partly submerging houses and driving families to freight cars and other refuges for shelter. For several hours Phoenix looked like a Mississippi val ley town after a bad break in the Mississippi levee.
 But it was to the north that the real damage was done. Down the mountain sides the water poured; out from Paradise valley it rushed in tor rents that swept everything before IL. The desert became a lake whose boundaries extended across the ir gated section. Then the waters from these various sources united and then swept into the Arizona canal.
 It would have taken walls of stee. and concrete to withstand that pres sure. but there is a limit to the re- sisting power of everything, and tn canal banks gave way in hundreds z places.
 A total of 5.49 inches fell for the A hours.

WILL HOLD SUGAR
FOR LOCAL DEMAND
Despite Advance in Price, Utah
and Idaho Crop Will Be
Kept at Home.

Quoted on the local market at $3.50 a
hundred pounds. cane sugar recorded the
highest mark reached in many years.
following an advance YESTERDAY in New
York of 10 cents Il hundred on all grades
are to the effect that further advances
are likely. but sugar companies OF this
section OF the country declare that no
rise In price, will he made unless con :
dtions force further advance,
Thomas II Cutler. general manager OF
the Utah Idaho Sugar company says:
AS long as our supply Of sugar holds
out we VIII make no further advance In
prices. The supply we have al the pres
cnt time Is in the neighborhood of a
quarter of million pounds If this is
sold before The new sugar comes in the
people will have tn depend on the out
side market. As long as what we have
lasts 1t will be sold TO the jobbers with
out any advance In price.
Joseph GcoeheRan, general sales agent
for the Utah-Idaho. Lewiston and Anal
gamatcd companies makes IA similar
statement and quotes Judge Fl. II Ro-
app: general man9ger of The ihs Amalsa-
OF the two states produced the sugar
and We will sell the supply we have on
hand. about quarter of million pounds.
Gated and will protect the people OF Utah
and Idaho as far rs possible" he saws
I'VE will make no further advance un =
less the condition of the market be-
comes such that we arc forced 10
do IT.
Mr., Geoghegan points out that II prices
in the east go stu higher iobbers might
buy the local supply and ship to the
eastern marts. with the result that the
local market would be at the mercy OF
the eastern iobbers. I'VE viii not know
ingly. however. sell a pound Of sugar "a
be shipped out Of Utah or Idaho during
the present high prices ne said
The advance In sugar in the past three
months has been sensational On June
IL beet sugar was quoted on the local
market at $3.50 retail and cane sugar al
SOLO. The advance has been steady and
consistent until the quotation during the
week Just closing reached the figures OF
$685. for beet and $3.50 for cane sugar.
Tnfavorable crop reports and higher
foreign markets are the reasons as,
signed for the advance. and eastern ad-
Vices are to the effect that still higher
prices may be expected unless there Is
some change in the situation abroad.
