4 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 3, 1896. GRGED AIVERS “4BE YET RIIRG E;é()plé in Danger of the :Floed Fleeing for ' Safety. Cities and Towns in Wisconsin That May Be Swept Out of Existence. I :Experiepces of the Past May Be Re- . pepted With an Appalling « ~'.* Loss of Life.. . 2. . 'CHIRPEWA -FALLS, Wis., Dec. * This ha been “moving day” in Chippewa Falls and along the Chippewa "Valley down to the Mississippi. The lower streets “of the city are alive and noisy with mov- ‘ing wagons of all descriptions, of drays, ‘sawdust tarts, farm wagons aund delivery outfits. Everything that can be drafted into service has been set at work and the merchants of Spring street are rapidly gétting back to places of safety. St midnight the water forced back from the Chippewa ice-gorge was creeping up the streegs toward the Wisconsin Central statioh. This morning 2t 8 o'clock the water was three feet above the tracks. An | hour later the tracks were abandoned. The water has been steadily rising all day. For several 'blocks furtber back hoteis and business houses were chilly, the water havineg extinguished all rires. For ten miles below the Chippewa the river is filled with ice, gorged well to the Lottom, obstructing the flow. Below the * gorge to Eau Claire the water is receding whilé reports from above the dam indicate that the water on the upper Chippews, Flambeau and other streams will soon go dow | There is a complete cessation of business | heré and hundreds have been to greatin-| copvenience and loss—that is all as yet. | But the shadow of a great calamity lies over Chippewa Valley. Itis of record that _fifty years ago an ice gorge formed near | here and- that when it went out in the | spring ifswept the vally clean to the Mis- | sissippi.- There were no houses then, but great trees were cut off, the banks swept clean and devastation foliowed. Eau Claire might be swept out of ex- istence by such a flood and the loss would ve incalculable and terrible. All thisis | possible, perhaps probable. If the weather should moderate now or should the force oi‘the backwater become so ereat asto | break- the jam of ice and logs, packed almost inextricably between this city and Eau Claire, the calamity would come now. With the mercury at zero the suf- | fering from the flood would be beyond the power of imagination. Vast quantities of water flow over the dam at the upper end | 6fthe city, brineing down ice in large quantities. Below the rapids at the dam this water flows under the ice pack for | miles, shoving against bridges and back- | ing into the town. The-water is twenty-five feet above the low mark. In 1884 it was twenty-eignt feet aboye, but that was a sammer flood without obstruction. The wagon bridge across the river to the south’of the towns seems almost imperceptibly in motion and may be moved dangerousiy soon. Even now south approach is trembling. Be- low it is the Wisconsin Central bridge, as yet dafe. The entire pack above the solid | gorge has moved 1000 feet in the last| twenty-four hounrs and attempts are being | made to open ‘& passage through it with dynamite. ‘Owing to the fact that no high gorge is apparent, the river being packed for miles, the project can scarcely be suc- cessful. It may be said there is no danger to life Here, nor will there be. The city is in darkness to-night, the gas plant having long ago been abandoned. The Wisconsin Central roped in its de- pot buildings to hold them. Late reports from Little Falls; where the Weyerhausers have the biggest dam on the Chippewa, are that the dam there is likely to hold. If it should be opened, probably great de- struction would result there. DURAND, Wis., Dec. 2—The situation on the bottoms remains unabated. The terrible water and ice flood extend over mdiles in area in the low country and the damage to livestock hnd hay and grain aggregate thousands of dollars. One or two men refused rescue and no word has since been Lieard from them. About thirty people who were brought here are being taken care of in the county building. At this place the water is in every street and basements and people are moving out. The railway track is damaged and washed out for several miles between -here and Wabash. Should the dam above Eau Claire break there is no telling the danger and damage that will ensue to Durand and vicinity. It is impossible for trains to move more than six miles below here. Stages west to Arkansas and Eau Falls are abandoned and the wires to these points are down. Business is practically at a standstill. People residing on the west shore are liv- in second stories. CHICAGO, Inn, Dec. 2.— Passengers who came to Chicago to-day from Chip- pewa Valley stations assured all anxious enquirers that though there was still the gravest danger of Chippewa Falls being destroyed by the flood there was no longer any fegr for Eau Claire. The flood suf- ferers along the Chippewa River are pray- ing for warmer weather as much as fora subsiding of the waters. The thermome- ter at the Wisconsin Central station at Chippewa Falls at midnight registered ten degrees below zero. A rise in the temperature would allevi- ate the sufferings of the homeless as well as melt the ice and allow the river to sub- side to its ordinary channel in the terri- tory between the falls and Iryine station. The Norihwestern, St. Panl and Wiscon- sin railways have resumed the running of trains to Chippewa and the: postoffice has been moved from the business poriion of the town seven blocks away on the hill. When the limited on the Wisconsin Cen- tral arrived here to-day half an hour late on account of time lost between Chippewa and Eau Claire there were many people at the depot to learn of the conditions pre- vailing 1n the stricken region from the trainmen and passenyzers. The train was at Chippewa at 11 P. . and the water was then over the platform of the depot. The people were filled with fear that the worst would Wefall the town, business was sus- pended and there was a general exodus to the hills north of the town. Purely Commercial Enterprise.

Their Mother Had Them Locked in the House and They Perished Before Assistance Arrived. CHICAGO, IrL., Dec. 2—Four children locked in a house at 1716 Thirty-third ave- nue were smothered to death during a fire were playing. Mrs. Mary Barth left the house at 10:30 o’clock to go to the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul Railway yards to pick coal, locking the door behind her. The children—Joseph, six years; Rosie, four years; Jobn, two years, and Louis, one year of age—were playing in thedining- room. During theahsence of the mother they secured & box of matches, and it is supposed ignited the clothing in their play. The curtains over the only window in the room were burned and the case- ments were scorched.

Many Reasons Why the Duty Should Be Removed on Spirits Used in Manu- factures. NEW YORK, N. Y. Dec. 2.—The| joint ,Congressional committee to-day re- | sumed the taking of testimony of those interested in the proposed measure to abolish the internal revenue tax on alco- hol used in the arts and manufactures. E. N. Stevens of the Manhattan Spirit Company, Buffalo, the first witness, disa- greed with the testimony of Dr. Weild- ing given yesteirday that wood and grain alcohol could not be demethylated. He clared that by a simple process a mixture of grain and wood alcohol could be de- methylated. He then stated that the were ~injurious to workmen, Mr. Stevens argued that to remove the tax on grain alcohol would be to ruin the wood alcohol business. C. E. Merritt, a large hat manufacturer of Dantury, Conn., followed Mr. Stevens. He said that the experience of the hatters had been that wood alcohol injured the eyes and health of the employes. There could be no doubt, Mr. Merritt said, but that grain alcohol was much better for their purposes than wood alconol,\but its tax made its use out of the question. Dr. Oley of Danbury said he had treated the hatters of that city, and was an occulist of ability, tola of the injuries resulting from wood alcohol to the eyes and other organs. Similar testimony was given by others. George D. Bauer, representing the firm of J. C. Ayer & Co. of Lowell, Mass., read a lengthy paper in favor of the abolish- | ment of the tax. His firm, ne said, manu- factured five proprietary medicines. They were able to furnish these medicines to European and Scuth American druggists cheaper than to American aealers. This, Mr. Bauer explained, was accom- plished by purchasing alcohol made in Germany.from potatoes. This was brought in under bond and made up in the pro- prietary medicines for export only, The law on alcohol in this country prevented the medicines from being sold cheap and within the reach of the poor. Mr. Bauer thought the Government could easily be protected from all fraud by a rebate sys- tem. A. Strindison of Deiroit, Mich., repre- senting the various Michigan manufac- turers, the next witness, opposed the re- moval of the tax. To do so, he said, would injure the various Michigan manu- facturers. The witness asserted that it would kill the oil varnish industry in_the United States. Frank 8. Clark of Wil- mington, N. C., next took the stand. He declared that if the tax on the grain prod- | uct were removed it would simply ‘roin all | the wood alcohol manufacturers in the conutry. GRACE KIMBALL MISQUOTED. She Did Not S8ay That the American Flag is Mot Kespected in Turkey. NEW YORK, N. Y.; Dec. 2.—A special from Poughkeepsie, N. Y., says: In an interview to-day with Dr. Grace N. Kim- ball, recently a missionary physician at Van, Armenia, and who is now at Vassar College, her attention was directed to the report in a New York newspaper of Sat- urday last from Constantinople and to the dispatches from Washington in the Sunaay papers, wherein Secretary Olney declares certain statements allezed to have been made by her at Chickering Hall, New York, to be unfounded. Dr. Kimball states that she did not say at Chickering Hall, or =zt any other place, either that the English flag is the oniy one respected in Turkey, or that the American j flaz is not respected. If she was so re- ported, she said, the reporters misunder- stood her. She declares that what she dia say 1n substance, and now repeats, is that in the interior where most of the missionaries work and where the massa- cres have taken place, the British flag is the one to which they look for protection. ST O B SYMPATHY FOL INSURGENTS. SR S Determined Attempt to Overthrow the Uruguayan Government. NEW YORK, N.

Y., Dec. 2.—Miss Leila Farrell, who was one of the most beauti- ful women on the American stage, died suddenly of grastritis yesterday at the Park Avenue Hotel. She was about 28 years old. Bhe first appeared on the stuge in this city as one of the actors in “Adonis” at the Bijou Theater in 1887 and her pretty face and dainty figure quickly won for her a position. She made quite a sensation in a new dance, and was credited with being the first woman on the stage to use black underwear, the rage for two or three seasons. There is no doubt that Leila fglly ex- pected to become Mrs. Goodwin No. 2, but she was doomed to disappointment, as the actor was married in October, 1888, to Miss Nellie Baker of Buffalo, against whom he recently began divorce proceed- ings in California. Before this marriage Miss Farrell found that he would not make her his wife. She then carried a big bundle of love letters to a lawyer's office in tnis city and had a suit begun to recover $10,000 for breach of promise. Goodwin decided to compromise. On the anfiouncement of his second marriage Miss Farrell said she had known all about it in advance and given her consent. Ste appeared for a while in “The Mas- | cot” and then she fell ill and went to Southern California. On ker return to New Ycrk she became a leading figure in the gayest life of the metropolis. Then she went to Europe, flitting from Londoa to Parisand Rome. She then decided to return to the stage, but death cut short her plans. M ghes TROTTING REVIEW BOARD. Some Cases of Long Standing Are Pre- sented, Argued and Taken Under Advisement. NEW YORK, N. Y., Dec. 2—The board of review of the National Trotting Asso- ciation resumed its session at the Marray Hill Hotel to-day. The members present were P. P. Johnston of Lexington, Ky., president; David Bonner of this city, vice- president; Frank Brown, Charles Dana Palmer, Lowell, Mass.; U.C. Blake, Cedar Rapids, Iowa, and Colonel William Ed- wards of Cleveland. The meeting was attended by many men well known in local club life, The sensational case of the pacing geld- ing, Charley P, which, although the board has abundant business of a routine nature to act upon, is the important feature. of the annual meeting, was the first question to be taken up to-day. Mr. Meed, a lawyer from Boston, ap- peared for Morley and Fitzgerald. Fitz- gerald himself was the first witness. He said he knew Clark. He had talked about the horses at Morris . Park. Medford and Clark had said he was the owner of the animai. He (Clark) bought the horse without knowing his previous record, and had trotted honestly. The well-known driver, John M. Ramsey,was the naxt wit- | ness, and said he trained and drove Charley P in 1896 for Fitzeerald. Lawyer Rees followed with an appeal for Fitzgerald, in which he demanded that Fitzgerald be restored to the privileges of the trotting turf, He also demanded that punishment be meted out to the guilty parties in the case, The reinstatement of the horse was also asked for on the ground that 1t had not been used as an instru- ment of fraud intentionally. The case was laid over until the next secsion. The board next took up a case of ten years’ standing. In 1884arace was trotted at Dover, Ohio, which was given to a mare named Belle Bargent. There was some fouling in the race, and after Belle Sar- gent had won two heats and a horse called Roger D one heat, aiter which Mercedes won the heat, and consequently the race, the judges decided it “no heat,”” and after- ward awarded the race to Belle Sargent on a walkover. The board in 1886 decided that the judges erred, but Hicks has never paid the money, and declared to-day that he never would, although it is in the hands of the association as custodian. This case also went over. LRI i Beecher Injured. N. Y., Dec. 2—Word has been received in this city of =n accident which happened recently to Mrs. Henry ‘Ward Beecher, who is at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Samuel Scoville, at Stam- ford, Conn.

Trays of Gems Valued at Over $5000 Carried Off by the Robbers. Ingenious Devices Operated by the Cracksmen to Prevent Their Capture. OMAHA, NEBR., Dec. 2.—Burglsrs broke into the safe of the Nebraska Loan Office last night and looted its safe of $5000 worth of watches, diamonds and jewelry. Precautions taken by the burglars to avoid detection were as noyel as ingenius, Adjoining the pawnshop on the eastis a vacant store building. The front door wag opened with a skeleton key, although there are indications that a chisel may have been used. From the store the bur glars worked their way into the pawn- shop by tearing off the plaster between the studc¢ings and making a hole large enough to crawl through. A small hole was bored through the wall between the vacant store and the pawnshop, inthe vicinity of the safe. A string about fifty feet long was passed through the hole, one end of which was held by a guard at the front, while the other was so arranged as to communicaie with the burglarsat work upon the safe. 3 The guard could peer through the frozen plate-glass windows upon Douglass street, watch the movements of the police and passing pedestrians who might inter- fere with the robbery, and warn his pals in time to escape through the rear door. The safe-door knob was knocked off, and a hole drilled through the lock controlling the big bolt which manipulated the tumblers. A punch displaced the lock, and the big safe doors opened without the use of explosives or creating any noise, The 1nside doors were operated similarly, with the result that the contentsof the sale, representing about $5000, were at the disposal of the robbers. Eleven trays of watches, diamonds and jewelry were emptied, and the robbers disappeared without leaving any clew. DOMINION TARIFF COMMISSION, Eepresentatives of All Industries Ask for Additional Protection. HAMILTON, Oxr.,, Dec. 2—The Do- minion Government Tanff Commission opened 1ts investigation here yesterday, taking evidence in the various industries. The iruit-growers wanted an ad valorem duty on plums and pears changed to a specific duty of 1 cent per pound, and the duty of 2 cents per pound on dried peaches. The nurserymen, clothiers, hat manufacturers and glass manufacturers requested that the tariff be changed in regard to the articles they produced. ‘he manufacturers of cash registers wanted the duty increased to 35 per:cent for better protection. The coffin manu- facturers asked that the duty be reduced on raw materials which they have to im- port, and stated that even if the duty was taken off coffins they could hold their own. The spice manufacturers want atleast a 1614 per cent ad valorem duty and a 2- cent a pound specific duty on spices and coffee. ‘I'he sewer pipe industry asks for a specific duty of $5 per ton on sewer pipe. The buiiders wanted the duty on slate reduced t0 20 per cent. The Grocers’ Guild sug- gested that the auty on rice be reduced and rearranged; also the duty on syrup, which was now almost prohibitive. The foundrymen desired the duty on iron'to remain as at present, but wantea some minor alterations in the tariff re- garding emery wheels and other materials used in their business.” Some members of the deputation said thev would be quite willing to have the tariff taken off alto- gether if the Americans also took down their tariff wall. The manufacturers of tinners’ tools and carriage findings requested that the duty benot altered. The fire brick-makers asked that a duty be placed on fire briek, which is at present free. 3 S Deeds of an Insane Man. DEKALB, Iin, Dec. 2.—Henry L.
