Indianapolis The first word from
West Indianapolis, cut off from the
icity when the Great Nest Washing
ton street bridge Went out last night,
said that il is generally estimated
| that at least 200 persons were drown
ed when the Morris street levee broke
last night An unverifed rumor says
that a large number of refugees
sought shelter in Wolfe's hall until
The crowded floor gave way. Scores
may be killed or seriously injured.
Trapped in Their Homes.
Tho families in the one-story homes
We're at the mercy of the sudden rush
OF water that followed the breaks in
the levees. II is believed the bodies
OF these people who are supposed 10
have been trapped in these houses
will be found when the water re.
dedes Various estimates are made
at West Indianapolis of the loss OF
life. but the prevailing opinion is
that not less thar 200 perso ons must
have been drowned Sixty passenger
trains are shut out OF the city on the
lines entering from the west and all
he passengers are practically shar-
ing the lot of the homeless refugees
l'he assumption is that the parochial

about 100 women and children. Eff

THE SUMMARY EARLY TODAY.
Chicago, lll.--1he day broke upon
the desolation wrought by the flood

known.
At daybreak only partly verified
reports from the floods swept cities
in two states showed the following
revised estimates OF the loss of life
based upon all apparent reduction in
the figures from Dayton according

minution i'll the reports from Peru

ford, You may console yourself with
the thought that the money will be
we'll used and that you have at least
posed as a patriot although an in
voluntary one.
"As for yourself, we will run the
blockade off Wilmington in the early
hours of the coming morning. After
we are in port, 1 will arrange to have
you sent back to Liverpool aboard
the first runner which leaves for that
port, unless, indeed, you prefer to
make the return journey with me. I
can assure you that were all known
about you which might be told you
would find the climate Of Wilmington
exceedingly unhealthy.

closing word of advice. The next
time you seek to bribe a man in the
running trade I trust that you will
exercise a little more discrimination
in selecting your man."-New York

hands Of the clock, and the man who
remains idle and unproductive loses
and wastes something that can never
be restored. 1t matters not whether
his idleness is voluntary or Is forced
upon him, the results are the same.
Philosophers and political economists
in all ages have written this, but the
sum of all wisdom on this subject is
contained in the Bible when it speaks
of the hidden talents and of the man
who makes two blades Of grass grow
where one grew before.
Not only have men stood idle oil
have been withdrawn from gainful
occupations during the Balkan war
but the people throughout continental
Europe have withdrawn from circu-
lation and boarded vast stores of gold
literally hiding their talents in the
ground. If every adult person in the
United States took $50 out Of circula-
ton and hid it away or kept it idle in
his pocket the whole circulating me-
ium of this country would disappear
and absolute stagnation would pre-
vail. To whatever extent such hoard
ing is practiced the resulting injury is
in direct proportion.
Getting into debt does not spell ruin
If the borrowed money is spent in
producing something of value. Cana
da is loaded down with enormous
debts OF all kinds, but the resiliency
now being displayed in its business
and financial circles proves the eco
nomic theory that money spent fol-
improvements Is not q drain on re-
sources. Canada has spent hundreds
of millions Of dollars on railroads, ca
nails, waterworks and every conceiv-
able improvement, but has wasted
none in war. Her people possess tan
gible assets to show for their money
but Europe has nothing to show fol-
billions of war debts. One good crop
has put Canada on its feet and made
its new railroads profitable, but Eu-
ropes new war debts will throttle
generations yet unborn. The United
States has paid off its war debts to all
intents and purposes, but war cost this
country 20 years Of deprecated cur
rency and so years Of high taxes
without reckoning the actual waste OF
war itself and the stagnation that fol-
lowed in the southern states. Yet we
have many among us who would
plunge gayly into war in Mexico that
would not imperil our own posses
sions, but would waste our resources
of men and money.-New York Com
mercial.

WAR is WASTE
We Should Reckon the Cost Before
We Intervene in Mexico.

We Intervene in Mexico.
Americans may be extravagant and
the cost of high living" may be too
great, but in the true economic sense
a high rate of consumption Of goods
and foodstuffs does not constitute
waste when it is accompanied by in
dustrious production. The skilled
workman, who earns high wages and
spends all he makes on himself and
his family, helps business, including
his own industry, so long as he does
nothing to weaken his own mental
and physical powers. In the commun-
al sense he wastes nothing, though
saves nothing. His high cost Of liv-
ing' creates no stringency in the
money market. When we have hard
times 1t is under-consumption, not
over consumption, that hurts.
Throughout the world today money
,tringency exists, though happily =
less severe in the United States than
elsewhere This condition Is trace
able directly to the Balkan wars. War
is waste. Industries are paralyzed in
the midst Of active operations. When
ever men are withdrawn to serve with
the colors, crops are lost and mills
stand idle. The worst of all waste Is
loss of time. We cannot turn back the

PAY BUILDING COMMITTEE
 FOR EPILEPTIc COLONY
State Senate Passes Bill for That
 Purpose.

In the state senate Tuesday there was a discussion on the following bill making an appropriation for work done at the colony of epileptics The bill is as follows:
 The following sums are hereby ap- propriated to be paid to the following persons out of any money in the treas ury not otherwise appropriated, for services and expenses of the building committee of the board of trustees of the Connecticut colony for epileptics in preparing plans and specifications and employing architects and engi- neerS for work upon the construction and equipment for the Connecticut col Ony for epileptics: To Zebulon R. Rob- bins of Norwich eleven hundred eight dollars; to William P. Kelley of Kill lingIy seven hundred thirty dollars: to John H. Mountain of MiddIetoWn, three hundred dollars.
 Senator Mountain, whose name ap- pears in the bill, left the senate cham Der when the discussion begun. Sena- tor Perry moved that the rules be sus- pended so that Senator Mountain might resume his seat and remain in the senate. The motion was carried, but Senator Mountain did not resume his seat.
 Senator J. McA. Johnson of the First district strongly opposed the bill and said he regretted to take a posi- tiOn of opposition, but he did not think the money should be paid. In other commissions there were building com mittees which did similar work, but they did not receive payment for their services when it was but SO stipulated in the law
 Senator Perry also opposed the bill.
 Senator Quinn favored the passage of the bill and pointed out that the committee had rendered valuable ser vice.
 The bill was passed
