Indian Creek Floods
Streets; Omaha Cars
Tied Up Several Hours

A torrential rain over the Indian
creek watershed outside the city OF
Council Bluffs. between J and .
o'clock last evening sent the creek
out of its banks and deluged the
vicinity of the Northwestern pas
senger station with a sea of mud.
The mud and water was so deep
that street cars on the Omaha line
were held up for several hours. The
food extended from Ninth to Thir-
teenth streets, inficting the usual
amount of damage.
The rainfall in the city was not
nearly as great as that which oc-
CURED early yesterday morning,
when nearly four inches fell in the
city. The food of mud and water
that poured in from the country
last evening was nearly 10 feet deep:
1t will cost a good many hundred
dollars to clean the mud off the
Broadway paving. adjacent streets
and railroad yards in addition to
damages done in flooded Easements.
The food wrought havoc to many
flourishing. gardens.

JUAREz AWAITS TEAMSTER UNION
REBELS ATTACK; I'm OMAHA VOTES
EXPECTED SOON TO co ON STRIKE
Unanimous Decision Reached
Last Night at End of Pro-
longed Meeting; 1900
Men Are Involved.

Six hundred and fifty members of
the local Teamsters and Truck
Drivers union voted last night to
strike this morning. The union is
composed of 1000 men, all of whom
will strike.
The unanimous vote to strike was
made at the close of three-and-a-
half hour meeting in the union hall,
Sixteenth. and California streets.
I'VE tried in every way to settle
differences with our employers
without striking" said NJ. W. Room
ey, business agent of the union, "but
they were not ready to even ap-
proach our demands They told us
they were willing to meet their en-
ployes and strive to settle, but were
not willing to meet with us"
The meeting was called hastily"
said Rooney. For that reason we
were able to get only about 50 per
cent of the members of the union
at the meeting. We reached them
by telephone early in the evening.
This union demands a wage in
crease and protests against discrim-
ination used against this organiza-
ton by our employers"
Mayor Smith and State Labcr
Commissioner Kennedy have been
exerting every effort to settle the
dispute between the union and the
employers without a strike.

City Has All Appearance Of
Deserted Village; Most Of
r Citizens Have Sought
Refuge in Ei Paso.

FL Paso, Tex, June 10--Juarez,
cut off from communication with
the rest of Mexico, had all the ap-
pearance of deserted village Tues
day. A large portion of the civilian
population had already sought ref
uge in El Paso, and the $500 troops
were either confined to barracks or
on duty in the trenches and other
defenses of the city.
From the roofs of tall office
buildings in El Paso men could be
seen at work where the Mexico
Northwestern crosses the Mexico
Central railroad, three or four miles
out of the city, but whether these
were federals or rebels could not be
ascertained. Observers with field
glasses could plainly see the soldiers
in the trenches and around the
blockhouses apparently engaged in
battle practice in anticipation of at
tack.
So far as definitely known the
nearest rebels are at Guadalupe. SO
miles east of Juarez, where Generals
Felipe Angles, Ramon Vega and
Martin Lopez have a large force of
cavalry. The country occupied by
rebels is we'll watered with plenty of
grazing for the horses, and it is be-
lieved the rebels are resting in prep
aration for an attack ON Juarez,
which even federal officials in Juarez
admit is inevitable. 1t is also ad-
mitted that the rebels outnumber
the available federals and that the
latter are cut off from retreat in any
direction save across the Rio
Grande into the United States.

STRONGER
Senate Fight Over League Of
Nations Brought to More Dr.
rect Issue by Resolution
Promising Opposition.

Washington, June lo.-The senate
fight over the league of nations was
brought to more direct issue with
the introduction of resolution by
Senator Knox, republican of Penn
sylvania. proposing that the senate
give formal notice to the peace cor
ference of opposition to be expected
should the peace treaty be submitted
for ratification in its present form
Senator Knox, a, member of the
foreign relations committee and :,
former secretary of state, drafted
the resolution after conferences with
other league opponents and pre-
sented it with the apparent support
of those who have led in criticism
of the league covenant. He ex-
pected to crystalline opposition, as
did Senator Lodge, with the circula-
ton of the round robin in the clos
ing hours of the last senate.
Far Reaching Proposal.
While declaring for immediate
conclusion of treaty dealing with
direct issue of the war only. the
resolution contains a far-reaching
proposal which would lay1t down as
policy of the American govern
ment that whenever the freedom and
peace of Europe is threatened, the
United States will consider it obliga-
tory again to cooperate in the over
ruling of that menace. ......
Decision as to acceptance fmer,-
bership in the league OF nations
should be left without prejudice to
each nation, the resolution declares,
for future separate consideration. It
also asserts the lack of authority by
the treaty-making power of the
government to make a treaty which
in effect amends the American con-
stitution.
Expect Another Bitter Debate. +
At Mr.. Knox's request the resolu-
ton was referred without debate to
the foreign relations committee. He
will attempt to get committee ac-
ton tomorrow or Thursday and
hopes to bring it up in the senate
for Consideration by the end of the
week. The resolution is sure to
open a new chapter in the league of
nations fight and to develop a de-
bate which may be even more bitter
than that over publication of the
treaty text.
There were many conferences
among senators over provisions OF
the treaty, published in full in to-
days Congressional Record, and thc
foreign relations committee made
plans to resume tomorrow its in
vestigation of how treaty copies
reached private hands in New York.
OF the six financiers the committee
had summoned, three-J. P. Morgan,
Henry P. Dawson and Frank A.
Vanderlip-sent word they would be
ready to appear tomorrow.
