WENT OUT
Street Car Traffic Badly Demon
allied During Storm.
Most of the COmpany's Lines
Are Working Today.

The Topeka Edison company has
mad a force of men out over the city
today making repairs and it is eX-
pected that all lines will be operating
by night Lights were put out of
commission in many sections of the
city Thursday night by the storm. One
house on Throop street was struck by
lightning. Fuses sin 7tranfOrmerS over
the city were blown out in many
homes.
The street railway cars were tied
up temporarily at several points. This
afternoon cars were running through
on every line with the exception of
the Oakland and East Sixth street. 1t
was not thought wise to run cars over
East side bridges. Service is being
maintained between the Lake street
bridge and Oakland. -~-.-
The second bridge, on the Asylum
line came near going out. There was
a huge log and a l6t of drift wood
lodged against it blocking the water
and the bridge had already begun to
shift when Albert NJ. Patten, assist
ant general manager of the Illinois
Traction company, and workmen ar
rived on the scene. The log was
righted and the bridge showed in
place.
Manager Patten spent the entire
night going over the system in an in
spection car.
The new concrete bridge on the
Gage park line in aPinehurst which
was supposed to be above high water
mark was covered with water in the
course of the storm.
Street car traffic was tied up at
several points while the storm was in
progress by rivers of water. The tie
ups occurred at Kious street on the
North side, West Sixth avenue and
avenues, and Douthitt avenue at
Polk street

CROSS CREEK OUT.
Flood Waters Are Pouring Into

Sweeping Farm Lands a Dis

AT half past one O'Clock this aft

Il have just learned that Cross

miles, INTO silver Lake from the north
SIDE Th1s means that fair sized
stream Is running down past Kings

sides of the Union Pacific railroad is
at least partly under water. If the
water rises to a full % feet at Topeka

OF the embankment at Silver Lake and
commence flooding all the low lying
country extending northwest to and
beyond the station of kingsville. With
water coming down from Rossville it
IS certain to do a lot of damage
The old bed of Silver Lake has
been farmed by Hodgins for three
years past This spring the bed has

TODAY'S MARKET REPORT.

Chicago. June 11--WHEAT-Wet wealth
er in the southwest lifted wheat prices
today regardless of fresh declines at Liv-
erpool. Strong interests here took the
surplus off the market. Reports from
Kansas said close examination of the crop
seemed to show that filling had made no
Roadway, and that the outlook more
unfavorab1e than had been supposed than

ming to react
sharp break which ensued carried the
market to a new low price for the crop.
Exporters were said to be persistently
heading off. Later however. announce
ments of some European business here
caused a rally. The close was strong at
1c to 2Ac above last night.
CORN-Corn assembled with wheat. Be
sides field condition were against the
bears. Opening prices, which varied from
&c to 1c advance were followed by mod
crate additional upturn.
Reports that the crop was getting late
start in many of the chief producing states
helped later to prevent any decided set
back for prices. The close strong at

OATS-Oats took the same course as
other grain. The feature was active. short

RACES WITH LUNATIC
Hugh Larimer Does a Record Sprint
After Insane Man.

Undersheriff Hugh Larimer added a
new chapter to his biography Thurs
day afternoon when he did a steeple-
chase across a muddy p1owed field
after an insane prisoner who took a
flying start from the front seat of the
automobile in which he was being con-
veyed to the state hospital for the in
sane. Larimer caught his man, de-
lVered him at the asylum and came
back to headquarters still out of
breath and out of temper.
Herman Wentworth, the prisoner,
had been committed to the state hos
pital, by a commission of alienists, in
the probate court, and turned over to
Larimer for delivery. He was a quiet
young man and gave no evidence of
violence when being examined. His
father. who accompanied the under
sheriff, said his mildneSS was not to be
relied upon and he chose to sit in the
tOnneau of the auto while Larimer and
the prisoner rode in front.
I'VE were getting along fine" said
Larimer, after he had cooled off,
until we got out past the edge Of
town. All of a sudden my prisoner
rose up and jumped straight out of the
car. 1 couldn't make move to pre-
vent him until l had stopped the car,
for 1 was driving and 1 expected to
find him stretched out dead when
did. But when 1 got stopped 1 discov
cred him running across a plowed field
and making good time in spite of the
mud. There was nothing to do but to
go after him, so 1 waded in. 1 was
pretty mad and I guess Went worth
must have realized it, for he yelled
back at me when he saw me coming
and said, Don't shoot
81 said, L won't shoot, but I'll knock
the whey out of you if you don't come
back and be good and at that he
stopped and came back All 1 wish
of cleaning the mud off of me as
part of the costs of his case"

VISIT IN BOATS.
Residents of South Topeka
Make Best of Situation,
Have Good Time While Waiting
for Water to Subside.

When the waters from the swollen
Shunganunga poured into South To-
peka from break in the dixie at Nine
teenth street about O'Clock this
morning, residents living near the
creek poured from the flooded dis
trict. An hour or so later when it
was found that the water was at a
standstill and had done no damage
save to cellars and Easements the peo-
pie returned to their homes There
was little excitement
All day today, residents for blocks
around Eighteenth and Kansas avenue
and in the Skeene park addition calm
ly sat on their front porches and
watched the water recede. At late
hour this afternoon water was still
standing from six inches to three feet
deep in these vicinities
Early this morning before the wa
ter began to fall practically the whole
South side drainage district was COW
cred. And for the South side drain
age board and the city, it appears that
the high waters have opened up a
brand new vein of trouble. Residents
of the district are convinced that the
water would have receded before noon
had there been more drainage facil-
ltieS After the water had cea Sed to
run through the Shunganunga dixie,
water stood in the streets-backed up
because the only outlet was few
small culverts. To State Journal
reporter today it was pointed by resi-
dents that a four foot culvert on
Eighteenth street near the Santa Fe
tracks was causing the most trouble.
Damage Considerable.
1t is practically impossible to esti-
mate the damage in the South side
district tt will nn6Ou ht66lU well
into the four figures. AS in other
parts of the city the most damage vas
done to cellars and contents Canned
fruit and other articles stored in them
were damaged in houses in the lowest
parts of the district.
Owners of back lot gardens eyed
the objects of theid spring labors with
baleful eyes. Vacant lots that yester-
day were well arranged garden plots
are today real swamps. The house
wife who has tried to cut down the
high cost of living by raising chickens.
also came in for her full share of trou-
bleS. Hundreds of spring chicks that
would have made tempting fries by
the latter part of July were drowned.
So far as could be learned no other
live stock was lost. Efforts to save
poultry were in many cases unsuccess-
ful-the water came too quickly.
Early this morning the South side
diStrict-eSpecially that part next to
the creek-was fairly good imita-
ton of Venice. People went visiting
in boats. Mrs. Lady of the house and
MI. Owner of the house sat on the
front porch and watched boats ply
from place to place as if it were a
daily occurrence. Persons not for
tunate CROUCH to have access to boat
took off their shoes and waded.
The high water also afforded real
sport for the youngsters. A log or
heavy plank was converted into q
catamaran by Shorty and Fatty. For
them it was a day of real sport.
No household goods were moved out
of the South side district. Practically
the only precautionary measures
taken were in business houses where it
was possible to move goods to the
second story.
