BASEMENTS OF
CITC FLOODED
BY HEAVY RAIN
Hasemenls wero flooded and no
less than 35 telephone lines put out
of commission yesterday noon as the
result of the violent electrical storm
accompanied by hall and rain which
recorded a precipitation of .3 of an
Inch in 30 minutes. Later In the
afternoon a fiery ball of electricity
grounded on the wet pavement,
sizzling ifor an Instant, then disap
pearing In an explosion beard more
than a block away.
In a nhoit tlmo after tho storm
had spent Its fur, the sfreets were
dry again, but the rain soon re
sumed and by 4 o'clock another
tenth of an Inch had been added.
Whllo the lightning was flashing
almost continuously, phono lines
wero going out of commission In
rapid succession, but the protective
system used In Installations bore, by
which surplus current Is Immediate
ly, grounded, prevented any damago
which could not be cured almost at
onco at the exchange. At .the A. J.
Vcltum store, fire flashed from tho
instrument as tho lightning struck
tho lino.
Water Hacks In Sewers
Water backing up in the sewers,
designed for sanitary purposes only,
but now In many cases forced to
carry drainage from the roofs of
business blocks, rose quickly In base
ments In' the downtown section, par
tlcularly along Oregon avenue,
Owners were forced to ball at top
speed to keep the water from getting
entirely beyond their control.
Inadequacy of the drainage sys
tem to such a deluge, at the north'
oast corner of Wall und Oregon
streets, caused tho accumulated v?a
ter to rlso above tho curb and to
overflow tho sidewalk; whllo "nsus-
pcctlng motorists learned, by driving
through It in "high," that tho water
was ovor a foot deep In the street.
Spray thrown . out by these cars
made them somewhat resemblo rac
ing motorboats. At other points tho
water rose to tho height of tho curb,

MADRAS, Juno 5. Henry May of
Portland, one of a party, oanglera
who started In boafs from Mecca to
South Junction, was drowned In tho
Deschutes river about 1:30 o'clock
Sunday afternoon when he lost his
balance nnd fell into the river from
his scat In the bow of' tho skiff. The
body has not beep recovered.
May leaves a wife and a mother,
both resident of Portland.
The tragedy occurred at a point
two mile below Mecca where tho
river is deep, narrow and the cur
rent almost unbelievably swift. In
many places be.tween Mecca and
South Junction the river Is less than
CO feet wide and has always been
considered by residents of this sec
tion as unsafe for boating.
Ulnst for Body
Wasting wn going on In the river
this morning and afternoon in an ef
fort to bring the body to the sufTace,
but the swiftness of the current and
the fact of many deep whirlpools
makes recovery extremely doubtful.
One attempt at rescue was made
as Mays fell from the boat, a com
panion, H. Anill, diving, but bring
ing up only the hat of the drowning
man. He risked bis -life a number,
of times in the dangerous water, but
to no avail.
Tho party of Fortlanders, It was
learned this morning, started from
Mecca In two boats. May occupyiBg
the second. He was an emplbyiKof .

at the delay, he stated here today,
and started up stream to Investigate.
Then he learned of the tragedy. He
gave the names of tho party, as R. M.

II. A. Hill and Henry May.
Two other men were in the boat
from which May was fishing", he said
Tlje skiff went through 'some un
