Est FENCES NOT TO COME DOWN Motor Oompany ‘Springs & Surprise on Those Who Secured the Order. JUDGE GRANTS STAY OF EXECUTION Captain Beck and Others Now Threat- ‘en to Retalinte by Bringing Pro- ceedings Under the Mulct Law, The tences that enclose the streets in controversy at Lake Munawa will not come down, at leust for this season, despite the ruling of Judge Scott of the ‘superior court. When the time came yesterday morning for the court to hear the mo- tions of Crisman & Robards, the plaintiffs in the Injunction proccedings, that the eupersedeas bond filed by the motor com- pany be stricken out and that an order issue from the court for the abatement of the obstructions on the streets, Attor- ney Wright, for the motor company, played a trump which it developed he had held up his sleeve for nearly a week past. He presented to the rourt an order from Judge Deamer of the supreme court, stay- ing any further proceedings, pending the dotermination of the appeal from Judge Beott's ruling. As the appeal, under ordinary circum- stances, cannot be reached until next Jan- uary, unicss it should be advanced to the October term of the supreme court, which it is admitted is unlikely, the motor com- pany will thus be enabled to retain the fencgs which it has erected across the thoroughtares in controversy and the prop- erty owners at Manawa, who appear as plaintifis in the injunction proceedings, will not obtain the rellet sought for this year, at Jeast. It developed that the stay of proceed- ings had been granted by Judge Deemer of the supreme court on Thursday, June 2. + Colonel Beck and others who were vi- tally interested in the execution of Judge Scott's order are much disappointed at the turn the case has taken and yesterday it was stated that they would seek other means to enforce: What they claim as thefr rights. This means that in the event of the motor company persisting in” its' re- fusal to place an opening or gate in the fence, which now shuts oft Third street from visitors to the lake resort, they will attempt to enforce their demands by bring- ing proceedings under the mulct law against the motor company to restrain the sale of liquor at the lake. It was said yestorday that further developments of an Interesting character might be looked for today. ‘Davis sells paint.

HELPS TELEPRONE CIRLS Oity Oouncil Will Not Pay Tolls Unless Bervice is Improved. RAINS DO GREAT DAMAGE TO CROPS From One and a Half to Three and a Half Inches of Rainfall Upon the Already Soaked Farms of Eastern Iowa. (From a Staff Correspondent.) DES MOINES, July 3.—(Special.)—An- other new turn was given the strike of telephone operators this morning when the city councll took a hand and virtually deelded upon Interference to bring about @ settlement of the quarrel. The council passed a resolution by unammous vote indicating that the city will refuse to pay for the use of the score or more of tele- phones in use by the city unless some- thing 18 done to fmprove the service at once. The reeolution is regarded only as one step in the direction of forcing the companies to yield by compelling them to Eo into court to collect all their rentals. At the same time a movement has been started for arbitration, and this comes from telephone men who have connections with the Des Molnes companies. The man- agers of the company at Knoxville re- fused to send in linemen to help out the Des Molnes operators and declared that the demands of the girls were reasonable. Thus far all efforts to get the committees together in Des Moines have falled this week. Judge McHenry in the district court to- day overruled the motion for a mew trial in the ease of the Dorr Cattle company agalnst the Des Moines National bank, in which a verdict for damages for $18,000 Was rendered some time ago. After the verdict had been rendered it developed that during the trfal one of the jurors had been approached by someone ostensi- bly with the view to bribing him. The motion for a new trial was based largely on the belief that the bribery matter had actually affected the jury, and on this the case will be appealed. Severe Rainstorms. The state of Towa got its worst rafn- storm of the season about mlidnight last afght. Over a large part of the state north- east of Des Moines the appearance this morning Was one of almost desolation. The weather bureau records showed a fall of 843 iInches of rain during the night at Waterloo, three inches at Towa Falls, 2.15 inches at Charles City, 1.45 at Cedar Rap- ids, 1.57 at Towa City, 1.03 at Maquoeta and heavy rain at Marshalltown, Ogden, Osce- ola, Keckauqua, Forest City, Estherville and other places. This heavy rainstorm was accompanied by severe lightning. The trains from the north on the Great West- ern, the Cedar Rapids line, the Towa Cen- tral and others were all laid out. Much track was washed out in the valleys of the Iowa and Cedar rivers and along the Boone river. Reports from various Sources recelved here indicate that the damage to crops was enormous and that as this sec- tion of the state had already beecn pretty well drowned out with heavy rains, this storm came to complete the destruction. There was no damage dome in the imme- diate vicinity of Des Moines, but in the eastern part of the county along the Skunk river there has been mych damage. The countles which suffered most severely are: -Hamilton, Frasklin, Wright, Cerro Gordo, Hardin, Butler, Blackhawk and Grundy, although countles in the north- western part of the state suffered severely from floods. The Chicago Great Western is the only ratlroad reaching Des | Moines which suffered serously. It lost 600 feet of track and a bridge mear Hicks and the track was damaged at a number of points between Oclwein and Waterloo. Traffic be- tween these polnts was suspended today. Washouts near Parkersburg delayed the Tilinols Central and the Blue Earth divi- sion of the Chicago Great Western. The Rock Island, because of washouts north and south, is running trains into Waterloo over the Iliinols Central tracks. The Boone river rose five feet at Web- ster City today and the eastern part of the city is threatened. A large part of the residence section of Waterloo is under water and many persons were rescued from their homes in boats. The business sec- tions are flooded and mercantile losses will aggregate thousands of dollars, The total 1088 to the city s estimated at $50,000. One- hundred yards of track on thy Waterloo & Cedar Falls Interurban rafl- way was destroyed by a landslide. The Denver line of the same company wa washed out In twenty places. The el tric and gas plants are closed and only a small amount of gas Is on band in the tank. Cedar river has risen fit- teen foet at Waterloo and s higher than at any time since 1880. The socialist party of Iowa is to hold ite state convention at Davenport September 2, which is the day before the democratlo ate convention in Des Moines. A full state ticket will be nominated.
