STEERS CLEAR OF POLITICS AND TALKS OF MEETING OF THE
 WAR GOVERNORS.

Altoona. Pa. Sept. President Taft was the principal speaker today ht Altoona's celebration of the fiftieth anniversary of the meeting here of the loyal war governors, who decided that Abraham Lincoln and his war policy should be upheld and his call for more troops should be met promptly with volunteers. The presidents speech dealt almost entirely with the con ferences of the war governors. The president left late today for Beverly.
 The president spoke tnday within the canvas walls of big tent The crowd was large and applauied ire quently. Mir. Taft was introduced by Governor Tener of Pennsylvania.
 The president sketched the meeting of war governors in Altoona. in Sep tember. 1862. to discuss the proposi. tion of calling for 100000 more troops to aid the federals. finally deciding to go to Washington. where they draft ed an address to President Lincoln, but reducing their estimate of the necessary number of soldiers to 100,- GOO.
 Then they did what was very dear to the heart of MT. Lincoln,v said the president. because two days before he had issued his emancipation proclama- ton. They said: We are with you on that; we congratulate you on it and we rejoice with you on that you have taken the step
 There was no bad taste that foi lowed that meeting Only there en tered into the soul of that great pa triot and president, Abraham Lincoln the feeling you know it and l know dt-that he had nation behind him and that the cause he was engaged in was worthy their lives and their fortunes, and also the high resolve fhat he proposed tufight out the bat tie and bring back the erring sisters into the Union"

PROSECUTION CLOSED.

London, May 20.-The case for the of Mrs Emmeline Plank hurst, leader of tbe militant suffra- gettes, and Mir. and rMs. Pethiok Lawrence, joint editors of Votes for Women, closed today when they ap- peared again at the Old Bailey ses- sions on the charge of conspiring to- gether and also with Christabel Pankhurst, to ineite their followers to malicious damage of property.
 Pethitk Lawrence, addressing the jury, submitted that if there had been any conspiracy or indictment it was the ministers of the crown, including the attorney general, who had un- dertaken the present prosecution, who were guilty of it. He continuel:
 'I loathe the idea of breaking win dows. It is essentially ugly and re- pugnant If Premier Asquith. Mir Lloyd Gdorge, the attorney general and other members of the British cabinet had shown that they were prepared to listen to reason and ar- gument, it would not have happen ed"

FLOODS PRECEDING
 DOWN WHOLE VALLEY
MI SSlsSlPPI IS FALLING AT ALL POINTS FROM ST. LOUIS
 TO THE MOUTH.

New Orleans, May 20.-The Missis- sippi river continued to fall today at all points from St. Louis south and reports received at the office of the United States engineers here concern ing the levees were favorable.
 The situation along the Atchafala- va river south of Odenburg, the scene of Sundays crevasse, are critical. ac- cording to reports received today, and relief boats were dispatched to the newly inundated section to rescue the endangered people and live stock.
 Besides Odenburg and Woodside, which already are under water, the following towns will be inundated by this crevasse:
 Neita, Bayou Current, Elba, Rosa, Morrow, Palmetto, Richard and Bo- doc. Melville, the largest townlin that section, already covered with water from one to two feet deep, will be flooded by the waters from the Oden- burg break to depth of from four to eight feet.
 Most of the women and children had been taken out of that country, but several hundred persons and from six to seven thousand head of live stock, which must be rescued within the next few days.
 A decided surprise was accustomed today when the backwater from the Atchafalaya entered the outlying sec tion of Morgan City and at noon had reached depth of three to five inches in some of the business streets.
 More than a hundrej refugees from the country south of Odenburg reach cd Opelousas this afternoon. Many of them expressed fears that relief boats would not reach some of the marooned folks in time. A large num- Der of gasoline boats were sent 70 this section from Opelousas, and to- morrow morning steamers will begin rescue work near Woodside.
 Captain c. o. Sherrill, chief of the army engineers, who has 1900 men at work on the HymelIa crevasse, 35 miles above New Orleans, reported to- night that the work was progressing satisfactorily and he hoped to have the gap closed within 12 days
 The fund of the New Orleans relief committee was today increased by more than $t,O00 by subscriptions from other states
 More than 150,000 refugees are now being fed and clothed by the army and local relief committees.
