RIOTS IN SEATTLE
 :=. WHEN CARS RUN

Seattle: An attempt was made this morning to operate street cars On several of the different routes in order to live up to the requirements of the franchise under which the car company operates. The appearance of he cars was a signal for the precip- itaticn of much lawlessness, mobs attacking the cars and smashing the windows with rocks and clubs, and shcwering the motormen and con iuctOrs with rotten eggs. Thirteen police officers were dismissed from the city force because they refused to ride on the cars to protect the crews. The members of the police force then formed a union, with an initial membership of 150. When in formed of this move On the part of the union Mayor Gill announced that the fact that a police officer belonged to a. union would not save him from dismissal if he failed to obey orders. Twenty strikers have been arrested up to noon today. All the street cars which were taken out this morning were returned to the shops within a few hours and all further attempt to operate them has been abandoned for the present.

WET WEATHER HALTS
 WORK ON BUILDINGS

Building Operations in town and on the government reserve have been seriously delayed by the wet wealth CT. Several buildings are now partly finished and it will be impossible tc complete them until weather condi- tions improve. The rain also has prevented the commencement of work on other buildings which are planned.
 One of the buildings under con struction is the new dormitory for employees Of the Alaskan Engineer ing commission. When completed this building will be two stories in height with an attic. Other work planned by the Commission is an addition to the hospital, 33x35 feet, two stories in height, with an attic; an addition to the store building, a cold storage plant, three-stall engine house and three cottages.

MORE WATER COMES;
 ROAD WORK DELAYED

Continued rains during the past week caused a further rise in the Panama river, high water mark hay ing been reached on Thursday, when the river level registered 349, a foot higher than was recorded a week ago. The additional foot of water w2s sufficient to flood portions of the townsite, causing property owners considerable inconvenience and some loss. The damage sustained thus far has been nominal, however, the greatest loss being in submerged gar dens and weakened foundations. in the resident section.
 The Burns residence and other homes in the upper part of town are in the inundated area, and below A street the hospital, Commission cot tages, mess house and outlying build ings are surrounded by water. The board walk along Main street from the mess house to the Riggs resi- dence, was afloat yesterday and prac- tically every cellar in town is full of water A number of cellars which were not properly boarded are cay ing badly and a readjustment of foundations will be necessary after the water has subsided.
 The general office building, dorm itory, commissary, power house, and other Commission buildings between the mess house and the river are on comparatively high ground and have thus far escaped the inunda- tion. Should the water rise another eighteen inches, however, the power house boilers will be out of commis- sion.
 Practically all the water in town comes from the slough, which is fed by the country south of town. There is very little difference in the level of the slough and that of the river, however-tOo little to render drain- age from the one to the other prac- ticable at this time. By actual meas urement the slough level is only three inches higher than the river level.
 High water has caused considerable damage along the right of way and the work will be somewhat delayed On that account. A number of cuts have filled with water and slides have occurred, which will necessitate considerable extra work. The greatest trouble has been experienced beyond Twenty Mile.

COMMISSION PLANS
 HAPPY SPUR LINE

In order to provide the people of Fairbanks and the Tanana valley railroad with an adequate supply of fuel during the coming winter the Alaskan Engineering commission will run a spur track from Happy sta tion to the Bartlett camp, distance of approximately five miles, along the right of way of the government railroad. The grade will be standard guage and all the work done will be of a permanent character, but the track will be narrow guage for the present, connecting with the Tanana Valley railroad at Happy. When the stee is laid between Nenana and Fairbanks the narrow guage spur will be wiGened to standard guage and will then become a part of the through line.
 Assistant Engineer F. D. Hayden is now engaged in organizing his party and gathering camp equip ment together preparatory to nov ing to the scene Of new operations. He expects to get away On Monday and upon arrival at Happy will es- tablish what is to be known as Camp 102. MT. Hayden will supervise the new work, the greater part of which will be done by contract, with the exception of running the lines and laying the steel. .-. .-...
 The establishment of this camp means, in effect, that Fairbanks will not be able to burn coal this year. When questioned yesterday regard ing the new work, Commissioner T3aos. Riggs, Jr., said that adverse conditions had delayed the work south of Nenana to such an extent that it would be impossible to reach the coal fields in time to supply the upper town with that kind of fuel this season. Therefore it had been decided to build the spur connecting happy WllH "oou ColllP, "i+tli will enable Fairbanksans to secure all the wood they may need during the coming winter and at more reasonable price than they were com pelle6 tc pay last winter.
 The members of the Hayden party are: Hawley W. Sterling, transitman; J. G. Bellows, property clerk; E. E. Durgin, timekeeper; Sam Dumbolton, estimator; William Young, tapeman; George Ito, cook. The party will make the trip up the river On the Commission launch Midnight Sun. The horses needed for the work will be secured in Fairbanks.
