WARSHIP TO GO SOUTH.
American Vessol Sent to Honduras to
Investigate Trouble.
Washington, July 14. It was an
nounced at the state department Sat
urday that an American warship will
be sent to Port Amapala, Honduras,
to investigate the reports that Hon
duras revolutionists arc rapidly push
tiv forward with a view to capturing
the city, rhese messages were re
ceived at the state department Satur
day. J'rom the tenor of the tele
grams, no apprehension is felt that
the dispute will involve other Central
American republics.
Dispatches from Salvador Saturday
state that a number of arrests of Sal
vadorean revolutionists have been
made by the Salvadorean government
because it was thought they were aid
ing the revolution. The Ilonduran
government is evidently trying to
suppress the disturbances.
In accordance with the rcnuest of
the state department, the bureau of
navigation Saturday afternoon issued
orders to the protected cruiser Al
bany to proceed at once to Amanala.
The Albany is now at Panama, where
she had gone from San Francisco to
take marines to preserve peace in the
coining Panama elections. She will
carry 100 marines to Amanala, the os
tensible reason for her visit to the
Central American port beinc a threat
to the Ilonduran government to pre
serve peace. After the Ilonduran rev
olution is quieted the Albany will take
tnc marines to ban rrancisco.
LABORERS PLAY MERCHANT.
Ancient Game Worked Successfully by
Means of Lying Passports.
Washington, July 10. Acting on ro-
ports showing that many Japanese who
come to this country on passports in
dicating that they aro merchants or stu-
lcnts or members of some other branch
of the exempt classes, later take their
places as laborers, the government is
planning to increase tho activity of
Agents keeping the immigrants under
surveillance.
The officials believe that Japan is
using every effort to live up to lier
agreement not to issue passports to
laborers, but there is littlo doubt that
the regulations aro continually evaded.
It is believed that a careful watch on
the immigrants after they have reached
this country soon will lead to a solution
of tho problem.
Tho work of tho immigration commis

Increase Border Posts.
To Butte Next Month and to Coast
Early Next Year.
8pokane, Wash., July 13. Barring
delays not now looked for, the Chicago,
Milwaukee & St. Paul rails will be laid
as far as Butte by tho middle of this
month, according to W. E. Dauchy, en
gineer in, charge of that division. Tho
rail-laying crews are now within a few
miles of Butte and tho roadbed is ready
for them. From Butte west tho laying
of rails is scheduled to commence
July 20.
Mr. Dauchy has just completed a trip
over the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul
right of way from Butto to Portland
and Puget sound. The condition of tho
work is such that he estimates tho
completion of tho entire line early in
1909. The road will be handling traffic
on the Butte division before the end of
the month.
Reports from tho recently flooded
district in Montana show that damago
to the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul
roadbed was greator than at first esti
mated. Between Garrison and Missoula
several miles of rail was completely
washed awaj', and tho trestle work was
damaged. Construction work in the
state was also delayed four weeks on
account of the high water.
PEOPLE SEEK SAFETY IN HILLS'
Water Pours From Hillside Down Dry
Canyon, Swelling Willow Creek
to Raging Torrent.
Hcppncr, Or., July 14. At 3:30 yes
terday afternoon a cloudburst brought
water in torrents from the hills about
town, driving Willow creek out of its
banks and threatening for a time a
repetition of the disaster of June 14,
1903.
Bridges at the upper end of town
were carried away, sidewalks and
fences swept down the streets, and
many houses filled with two or three
feet of water, the receding flood leav
ing behind a trail of mud and de
bris. Several houses were partially
wrecked.
In a few instances people living in
the path of the water had to be car
ried to places of safety, but the
greater part of the population, remem
bering the experience of a few years
ago, lied to the hills as soon as the
storm assumed dangerous propor
tions.
The electric power station was
quickly put out of business, and the
city was in darkness last night.
No lives were lost, and it is not be
lieved that damage to crops will be
serious.
For several days the weather has
been excessively warm, with an un
usual amount of humidity in the at
mosphere. Atmospheric conditions
were very similar to those which pre
ceded the great flood of 1903, and yes
terday afternoon when dark clouds
began to gather to the south of town,
preparations were made by many, to
seek safety in the hills.

Railroads Threaten to Enjoin Decision
of Commission.
Seattle, Wash., July 14. Lumber
men report that the industry is as
badly paralyzed as before the recent
rate decision by the interstate com
merce commission, on account of ru
mors that the railroads are contem-
plating enjoining the decision of the"
commission in the federal courts. If
this should be done, the effect would
probably be to continue for possibly
as long as two years the uncertainty
prevailing previous to the decision.
Robert B. Allen, associate editor of
the Pacific Lumber Trade Journal,
said yesterday that he had been in
formed on reliable authority that the
railroads had practically decided
either to take a straight appeal to the
federal courts or to enjoin the de
cision of the commission. The for
mer course would leave the rates es
tablished by the commission in force
pending the decision of the appeal,
which the lumbermen state would not
seriously embarrass them in going
ahead in securing business and resum
ing the industry.
An injunction, on the other band,
would probably result in a continu
ance of the business on a bond basis,
which wou'd force the lumbermen to
make all shipments under bond to pay
the higher rate should the courts
finally overthrow the decision of the
interstate commerce commission.
