Damage totaling well into the
thousands was caused by $50 inches
of rainfall which fell here between
midnight Thursday and noon Friday,
while hundreds of residents of Pitts
ton, South Gardiner and other out
lying sections were marooned In
Gardiner Friday night. 1t would be
impossible to estimate the damage
done by washouts to the city roads,
but 1t will be days before they can
be repaired and put in their previ-
Gus condition. The washing out of
the culvert in the gully just this side
of St. Andrews Church in Pittston
stopped all traffic that way, and
dozens of day workers in Gardiner
were obliged to remain over night
in town, while some attempted to
detour by way of Whitefield, but
found washed out roads and culverts
in that section.
Heavy damage was sustained by
private families in the city. Cellars
were flooded, and hundreds of dol
lars damage In the loss of winter
stores alone was reported from va
riouS sections. Central street near
the junction of Water and Central,
Harrison avenue, Water street near
the freight depot, Bowman street in
Farmingdale, and several places on
Windsor street In Randolph were
among the spots to suffer the most
sever damage. Catch basins could
not hold the excess water, and in
| many cellars there was over five feet
of water. Vegetables, apples. Win
ter stores of all kinds, including pre-
serves over which hours of labor
had been spent, were all spoiled by
the flood waters. On lower Water
street near the freight depot a light
Ford runabout was practically sub

Cove Manor on the River road when
a whole section of the roadway was

committee of three into the alleged
activities of certain elements" in
Mindanao who, the Senate believes,
are engaged in creating ill-feeling be-
tween Moros and Christian Filipinos
in that island.
The resolution was prompted by
dispatches from Zamboanga reporting
differences between MoroS and Chris
tan Filipinos over the reception there
yesterday of Carmi A. Thompson,
President Coolidge's personal repre-
sentative, who is making an economic
and political survey Of the Philippines.
The dispatches said that friction
arose between Moros and Christian
Filipinos when the Moros accused the
FilipinoS Of breaking an agreement
whereby the Moros and the Christians
were to share equally in a demonstra-
ton on ThOmpSon's arrival. The
Moros accused the Christians of rush
ing to the pier in force to meet
Thompson, displaying banners de-
handing independence.
After a talk by the Filipino gov
ernor, the Filipino Christians retired
to the Plaza. The Moros carried
placards declaring they did not want
independence. but wanted freedom
from government by Christian Fill
pinos. The Moros are Mohammedans
