HUDSON RIVER DAM BREAKS
Half of international Paper Co.'s
Structure Gone.

Saratoga, March 26.-Widespread
damage from high water is reported
from many points along the upper
Hudson River.
The $50 foot dam of the Internal

Falls weakened today and half of the
big structure was carried away.
The high banks of the river at this
point prevented damage but the mills
will be closed for long period and
the loss to the company Is heavy.
Mills at Thomson and Trionda on
the Hudson near Schuylersville have
been forced to suspend work. Water

Half a Million People Homeless and
Suffering Almost lncom-

Chicago, March 26.-Three thous-
and persons may have persisted in the
deluge swept northern half of the
Ohio river valley yesterday and today
Probably half a million people were
made homeless by the flood in lndi-
ana and Ohio and property damege
in both states will be at least $780,
900, 900.
These figures were compiled this af-
ternoon by reports received here from
various points in the stricken dis
tricts. Further reports may increase
the number of dead, but it is unlikely
that any decrease in financial loss
will be made.
An additional horror was reported
early this evening from Dayton Fire
there. which seemed widespread and
probably uncontrolledable. in view OF
the paralysis of the water plant, prob
ably brought horrible death to many
who sought to escape drowning by
climbing to upper floors of buildings.

the dead

Reports unconfirmed said that 144
persons lost their lives in Fremont
and so at Tifiin. Ohio. 1t was rumor-
ed in Indianapolis early today that
200 persons were drowned in West
Indianapolis. but this number was lat
err reduced TO IA. though it was esti-
mated early this evening that more
than that number had died. In South
indianapolis the food is said to have
caused death in a number of small
towns and villages.
Fire at Dayton added to the flnan-
cial loss caused by the food. Early
estimates placing the damage in Ohio
and Indiana at s50,000,000 were revis-
ed to show tonight double that amount
Railroad officials were authority for
the statement that lines converging
into indianapolis would have 10 stand
a loss of s25,0O0.000 in that city and
vicinity alone.
Railroads were chief sufferers from
property damage. II was said tonight
by engineers and construction bosses
preparing repair trains for the food
districts.

DR.. friedman.

DIR. friedman is slowly recovering
much of the prejudice that has greeted
his arrival in America His manifest
eagerness to give proof of his claim to
have discovered tuberculosis remedy is
promoting sympathy and confidence on
the part of the laity, whatever may be
the attitude assumed by members Of his
profession.
Newspaper reports of his recent visit
to Canadian cities speak most favorably
of the impression he made upon the pub
lie. His unvarying labor, his skill, his
consideration for those who sought his
help and his keen attention to every de-
tail of their cases are commented upon
with approving words. 1t is evident
Canada was less suspicious and Cana
dian physicians less jealous than those
of our own country.
Thus far the cases he has treated in
New York have shown an encouraging
response. A pathetic demand for his
services has been created. He is re-
stricted, however, in administering his
remedy by the refusal Of the authorities
to permit him to practice independent
ly of some hospital where his work is
under strict supervision and control.
There may be wisdom in this. Prob
sibly it is the proper precaution. If DIR.
Friedman is charlatan any means to
protect the public are justifie |. But
not the slightest proof exists that he is
insincere or inefficient. Simply because
he is graduate of foreign medical
school he is refused the right to do what
any graduate of jerk-water medical
school in this country could do without
interference.
We would suppose there should be
some comfy between accredited men,
bers of the medical profession of differ
ent countries. To our un, ophislicated
mind it seems as if the United States
could afford to recognize the qualifica-
tions of German physician, barring
proof of his unworthiness, and remove
the red tape hindrance to his opportuni-
| ty for service

DanvilIe Co.lectorship.

When Cleveland was President the
second term. Judge J. W. Hughes. Of
Harrodsburg, was the leading applicant
for the colIectorShip for the Danville
district and had the endorsement of the
Kentucky Senator and many of the Rep
|resentatives in Congress, besides hun
dreds Of petitions. He worked long and
assiduously to secure these results with
actual outlay of more than $1,000. On
his last trip to Washington he was told
by those who thought they knew, to go
back home and prepare to take the Of
fee. He did so with the confidence Of
a man who had fought good fight and
won.
But there is many slip 'twixt the
cup and the lip, as he afterwards found
TO his sorrow. President Cleveland had
a friend in ST. Louis, who had often en-
tertaiued him, and with whom he fire.
quently went fishing. There was very
strong feeling of friendship between
them, and when this St. Louis man
wrote to the President that if he would
appoint Mr. Charlie Rodes, of Danvilie,
TO the office, he would not ask another
favor of him during his incumbency of
the Presidency, Mr. Cleaveland readi-
ly assented, made the appointment and
Judge Hughes was out his 5000, in ad-
dition to suffering great violence to his
feelings.
Many years have elapsed; democracy
is again in the saddle, and Judge
Hughes is for second time an appli-
cant for the Office of Collector. He is
not by himself, however, as nearly eve
ry man apparently in the district is al
so aH applicant for the same office.
Again Judge Hughes thinks he is sure
TO land, his former disappointment not
having made pessimist of him. But
another and similar contingency has
arisen. 1t seems that Vice President
Marshall is greatly enamored OF Mayor
Wallace, of Danville, and wants to show
his friendship. He has accordingly ask
ed as special favor to him, that Sena-
tor James recommend the Mayor for ap-
pointment to the place so greatly sought.
Whether Senator James will accede 10
the request is matter of conjecture,
but with the backing of the Vice Presi
dent, who is warm friend of the Pres
ident, it looks like he will hardly refuse.

claim to have fought and bled for the

TERMINALS IN SUPERIOR.

The new railroad from Marinette to
Merrill, via Amigo, says the Superior
Telegram, is not to continue from
Merrill northwest TO Prentice and
then southwest to the Twin Cities
but will run from Merrill northwest
to the Twin Ports, with Superior as
the terminal point, according to those
close to the promoters of the PROPOSE
ton.
The road is being planned largely
by North Wisconsin men, one of the
leading spirits being John O'Day of
Merrill, whose intimate knowledge of
conditions i'm upper Wisconsin proba-
bly, is not eQualled by any other man.
That Mr.. O'Day would not be so
blind to the possibilities of the new
road as to parallel the old 500 line
from the vicinity of Prentice to Min
neapolis is pointed out by those ac-
quainted with his good business judg-
ment, his accurate knowledge of
North Wisconsin and keen apprecia-
tion of the coming importance of this
section Of the state.
Those familiar with the plans say
that the road viii run from Merrill
northwest near theriver TO the mouth
of New Wood river: then up that
fertile valley nearly TO the head Of it;
then over across the Spirit river val
ley quite close to Spirit lake thus
creating easy access to one of the
finest opportunities for an unexcelled
summer resort; thence on to Ogema,
a live town surrounded by a finely
developed Swedish settlement. From
there it will continue on its course
through virgin forest practically all
the way TO Hawkins, passing near
Upham's mill, crossing Jump river at
or near Reichert'S Falls where there
is water power of high value and an
unlimited supply of high grade granite.
AT Hawkins the new road will find a
live town with a large saw-mill plant
and box and furniture factory, with
an average export of three to six car
loads per Gay.
From Hawkins it will continue on
its northweSterly course through the
often spoken of natural rail bed ex-
tending from Hawkins TO FIambeau
river, crossing the river near the
mouth of Skinner creek. From there
on to Superior it will pick its route
through that large blank on the map
of Wisconsin so as 10 penetrate the
best timber belts and touch several of
the larger lakes in Sawyer, Bayfield,
and Douglas counties, hence will
eventually become one of the most
popular routes in this state.
