FLOOD RELIEF WORK
Director of Red Cross Confers
With Gov. RaIston of
Indiana.

INDIANAPOLIS. April 16-Ernest p
Bicknell. national director of the Ameri-
can Red Cross. continued his conference
with Gov. Ralston today relative to the
relief work to be done in the f1Ood-strick-
en- cities of Indiana and the amount of
money to be allotted.
1t is probable that $500, 900, including the
funds raised by the governor and by the
Red Cross. will be available in Indiana,
and that it will be distributed by a COM
mittee to be composed Of Gov. Ralston;
Noble c.. Butler. clerk of the federal
court for this district and treasurer of
the Red Cross in Indiana. and Hugh
Dougherty, treasurer of the governor s
fund The work will be under the direct
supervision of Mr.. Bicknell. who, how
ever. will continue to have his headquar-
ters in Columbus. Ohio. He will make
frequent trips to Indiana to supervise the
work.
Ohio Has Large Fund.
Mrs Bicknell. said today that Ohio
would have a fund of about 81. 100000. and
that it would be. distributed solely by the
Red. Cross, which has taken complete
charge of the relief work in that state
at the request of Gov. Cox.
The most of the relief fund in Indiana
will go to Peru. Brookville, Loganport,
Lawrenceburg, West Indianapolis and
Terre Haute.
Mr.. Bicknell said it would be impos-
sible to tell just how much money would
be allotted each OF the flood stricken
states until the volume of wate. in the
Mississippi riper-had passed. out into the
Gulf of Mexico. and an estimate made of
the damage, done in the lower Mississippi
states.
Large Section Inundated.
MEMPHIS, Tenn, April 16.-Water
from the breaks in the Laconia circle
leyee ON the Arkansas side of the Mis-
sissippi river, near the mouth of White
river, today is inundating large section
of southeast Arkansas. Many valuable
plantations Will be overfiowed. Scores
of negro families were made homeless,
but the residents Of that section had
feared a repetition of last years over
flow and were prepared FOR the levees
break.
Reports received today stated that the
main leeves near Modoc, Ark, were
weakening under the floods strain.
On the Mississippi side from Rosedale
to Coahoma the entertainments were re-
ported in bad shape. Engineers declared,
however, that the break on the Arkansas
side would relieve the situation to
small extent.
Advices from Helena state that the
dikes protecting that district are in good
shape.

Fear That New York Editor Is
Bent on Embarrassing the
Administration.
SEE SIGNS OF A PLOT
FOR SENATE COALITION
Attacks on Tariff Bill and Panama
Canal Tolls a Menace to Demo-
cratic Unity.

Is William r. Hearst in open opposi-
tion to the Wilson administra ton, intent
upon crippling it?
This is a question which is being asked
in seriousness by President Wilson's s
friends at the Capitol. Their query finds
its basis in recent statements by Mr..
Hearst. and by the attitude of hostility
toward certain Wilson policies manifested
by his newspapers.
Mr.. Hearst's notable position in the
democratic party and his reputed in
f1uence with one element of the party
renders his course conspicuous it is said
hy democrats and worthy of consdera-
ton. Mr.. Hearst, while not a Wilson
partisan in the pre-convention contest-as
Champ Clark was his favorite for the
nomination--loyally supported the demo-
cratic ticket during the campaign.
Attack on Tariff Program.
Mr. Hearst's recent attack on the
tariff policy of the administration. the
intensity Of which is realized more
upon rereadng and discussion. has
set the Presidents friends to wonder
ing il Mr. Hearst is in earnest in ef-
forts to embarrass the President by
discrediting his tariff policy through
defeat or vital amendment.
President Wilson's friends in Con-
Sress fear that Mr. Hearst is seeking
to build up material opposition to the
bill in the Senate by amalgamating
scattered groups of senators whose
local interests are threatened by the
bill, and forming coalition strong
enough to put the bill upon a more

wing OF the democratic party in the
ascendancy.
War on Canal Tolls.
Mr.. Hearst's newspapers are also oppos-
ing President Wilson's assumed attitude
on the question of Panama canal tolls
In the absence of an official statement
from the President the position of Pres
ident Wilson toward the canal tolls ques-
ton is assumed in the press dispatches
TO be favorable to the British contention
as against the present attitude OF this
government expressed in the act of Con-
gress authorizing exemption of American
coastwise shipping from tolls. and sup
ported by the last administration.
Mr.. Hearst aligns himself with the po-
.ition Of the Senate in supporting the ex-
emption of American ships from tolls.
That body has once declined to repeal the
law. and has been opposed to arbitrating
