AUGUSTA FEARS
HIGH RIVER TIDE
Water Passes the Thirty-FoOt
Mark-ExpeCted to Reach
80 to 35 Feet.

AUGUSTA. GA. March ia flood
tide on the Savannah river today is
causing uneasiness to those living IN
the low sections of the city, business
concerns along the river front and to
residents of North Augusta, 5. c.,
across the river from Augusta.
The river has been rising rapidly
since last night. and at l o'clock this
afternoon registered 80 feet s inches.
At that time it was rising at the rate Of
three inches an hour.
The weather bureau forecast is that
the food will reach its maximum with
a tide of between SO and 50 feet. AT SO
feet not much damage is done here.
There is hope that the river will not
pass the G3-foot mark.
Persons living in the threatened sec
tions are preparing to move if the wa
ter continues to climb However, there
i not the uneasiness felt here a year
ago, when the entire river front. cotton
row. Broad street and other thorough
fares were submerged. Since that time
considerable flood prevention work has
been done.

.U.S.RECOGNITION
ASKED BY REBELS
Seeding Mexican States Want
to Open Custom Houses
on the Border.

DOUGLAS. ARIZ.. March 15-Gen-
eral Obregor, commander OF the So
nora constitutionalists who captured
Nogales Mexico. from Colonel Kos
teritzky's foderals, today asked the
United States government to recognize
the Sonora troops as beiligcrents, so
that the state government which has
seeded from the republic may operate
the customs house at NoCales and
Aqua Prieta.
The surrender Of Colonel Roster
litzky. who for a long time has been
the recognized bulwark of constitu
tional authority in northern Mexico.
has done more to strengthen the rebtl
cause in northwestern Mexico than
anything else which has occurred since
the Huerta government was set up N
Mexico.
1t now develops that five Americans
were wounded on American soil during
the fighting at Nogales, but all will re-
cover.
Fighting is reported to be in prog
ress north Of Del Rio between the $50
federals under Colonel Ojeda, VINO
evacuated Aqua Prieta. and three
bands Of insurgents from General May
orlena's command. Ojeda's men are
trying to cut their way through the
rebel lines but the telegraphic reports
from Maco state that it is likely Ojeda
will surrender rather than sacrifice his
troops needlessly.
