UNDERWOOD IS LIKELY
TO ENTER FOR SENATE
Awaits Tariff Bills Passage, It
Is Said, to Announce
Candidacy.

Close personal friends OF Oscar Under
wood, majority leader of the House, be-
lieve that Immediately upon the passage
and signing of the tariff bill Mr.. Under
wood will announce his candidacy for
the United States Senate for the long
term, beginning March 4, 1915.
In fact 1t is believed that If the tariff
bill were already upon the statute books
Mr.. Underwood would even now be an
active candidate. The delay in the
passage of the bill and the uncertainty
Of the fate of that measure. it is de-
clared, is alone delaying Mr.. Underwood $
announcement
VI course no one doubts that the dem
ocratic party will ultimately pass the
damentaI changes President Wilson will
not agree to any compromises, and the
bill will eventually go through.
Feels Tied to Post.
The point is that Mr.. Underwood feels
that he is tied to his present place
through a sense of his obligation to the
high Office he holds As the leader of
the party in the House he stands spon-
sor for the tarin bill, and 1t Is said he
cannot for any personal reason or for
any other reason leave that post Of re-
sponsibility until the tariff law Is an
accomplished fact.
In thes meantime Senator Simmons Is
confident that the bill will come to q
final vote in a few days. Senator Sim
mons optimism. however is not shared
fully by other prominent members of
the party
It is admitted that the detection OF
one or two senators who are known to
be shaky on the sugar and wool sched-
ules may work delay.
Urged to Enter Race.
In the meantime MIR. Underwood is
being flooded with letters from his
friends all over the state of Alabama
urging him to become a candidate and
to announce that fact Immediately to
the people. They assure him that there
can be but one result his Triumphant
election. But Mr.. Underwood realizes
than any one else. He has kept In
close touch with developments and ne
fully recognizes that until the tarifl
bill is settled beyond the SHADOW OF
doubt he cannot afford to make any
plans which affect the fate of the legis-
lation for which the democratic party
has been striving for years. =
The question of whether or not he Is

LONG term will be definitely settled
within the next two or three weeks

Are Rivers After
Heavy Rains.

NEW YORK, September 5.-Not a wheel
moved in the New York subway between
96th street in upper Manhattan and the
Brooklyn terminal during the rush hour
Of the work-bound crowds this morning,
resulting in one of the worst congestions
in traffic the city has known. Over three
inches of rainfall during the night flood
ed the subway tracks to the depth of
three feet or more and nine miles Of four
tracked subway were put entirely out of

1t was 8 o'clock before the line was
cleared, and then the congestion pre-
vented anything like normal conditions
The Interborough company loaded fiat
cars with electric pumps capable of dis
charging $50 gallons minute and sucked
the rainwater out of the tube as fast as
its men could work.
One Pathetic Incident.
The block at the Brooklyn terminus Of
the subway was the worst on the system
One hundred thousand persons use this
station between Z and o'clock in the
morning. One man hemmed in by the
crowd told those around him that he was
recently released from Sing Sing prison.
that this was his first day on an honest
Job and that he probably would lose both
the Job and his chances of reformation If
he failed to report on time for work this
morning.
At several central stations the baffied
subway users stormed the elevated trains
In such numbers that police reserves
were called out to make them keep in line
and take their turns.
Fifty fire chiefs here attending their
int in oY
press train stalled at the Columbus Cir
Gle station Of the subway early today.
They all turned in and helped the sub
way guards escort passengers on this
train and others stayed behind and came
over the third rail and up to the station
platform.
Deluge Worst in Years.
The deluge was the worst in ten years.
according to the weather bureau. and in
it's three hours duration it often gained
the proportions of q cloudburst.
Streets were turned into rivers. some
Of them two to four feet deep. and the
water poured in great quantities in eel
lars, driving basement jewellers from
their homes.
The roofs Of two large Broadway
hotels sprang a leak and torrents Of
water which had been held back by
chOked leaders went down through bed
rooms and halls, driving guests from
their rooms and doing serious damage
to decorations and tapestries.
Elevators were put out of commission
In several hotels and guests had to climb
many flights Of stairs. At two large
Broadway houses guests were obliged to
go to bed by candle light.
Surface cars were put out OF commits
sion all over the city for time by the
torrents Of water which poured into the
underground trolley conduit. causing
short circuit.

AN UNUSUAL SUIT.
Girl Awarded $1,000 as Result of
Railway Agent Encouraging 9th
crs to Mistrcat Her.

Saluda, Dec. 5.-On the ground
that an agent of the Southern Rail-
way company had encouraged others
to attempt to hug and kiss Miss
Emma Rodgers, 1G-year old girl, q
jury in the Saluda court of common
pleas returned a verdict OF $1,000
in favor Of the young woman. A mo-
tion for new trial was overruled.
1T appears that Miss Rodgers,
while in the passenger station at
Ward in August last, was mistreated,
and the allegation Of the complaint
WAS that the agent Of defendant fail
ed and neglected to give the protec-
ton to the young girl that the law
requires and that acting in concert
with others, he aided and abetted and
encouraged others to attempt to hug
and kiss the plaintiff. Miss Rodgers
is only about 16 years Of age and
was on her way to Graniteville to
visit relatives when the alleged mis-
conduct and maltreatmcnt occurred.
A verdict for $1,000 was returned
against the railroad.
A motion by defendants counsel
for a new trial was promptly over
ruled.
