A wall of water 25 feet high, carrying death and destruc tion with it, iwept down Cherry creek here Sunday night, ripped open the concrete walla and in a twinkling had marooned hundreds of persons. ,. Two persons are known to have been drowned. Mayor Arnold stated that 'the prop erty damage would reach at least $2,- 000,000. "Anything like an accurate esti mate of the damage would be out of the question for several days," said Mayor Arnold. "Thus far we have learned of only two deaths from drowning, but there may be several more." . , An infant boy was drowned when his mother, terror-stricken and up to her waist in water, dropped the babe and the little boy was swept down the stream. The second known desth waa that of 8-year-old Christopher Jensen. The boy was standing on the bank watch ing the rushing water when the bank caved in and he was carried to bia death. At Longmont, south of Den ver, and at Cripple creek and Victor. northwest of here, the rain fell heav ily, blocking traffic Word of the Cherry creek flood waa conveyed to the city hall by telephone shortly before the crest reached Den ver, and not a moment was lost in warning those within reach. The fact that the message waa received early was the means of saving per haps hundreds of lives. Near the banks of Cherry creek dwellings crumbled like paper, and many hair-breadth escapea occurred. A number were rescued from the tons of houses. The South Platte was at flood stare from the rains snd when the crest of the Cherry creek overflow reached the river the Platte overflowed its banka to the northeast of the city. tastlewood dam, near the head- 6:3J a. in. 7:uo a, m.

In the lower sections of the city families were driven from their homes. The crest of the flood in Cherry creek did not reach here until nearlv 10 o'clock, coming as a climax to the floods of the afternoon. Not a train left Denver Sunday night and none from any direction ar rived. Trains from the south were stopped three miles southewest of the city. ... FAST MAIL WRECKS EX PRESS TRAIN, KILLING 13 Chicago Thirteen persons were killed, eight of them women, and more than 40 were Injured in a wreck on the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy railroad at Western Springs, a suburb of Chicago, at 6 :30 a. m. Sunday. Coming through a fog with suddos- edly a clear track,, train Wo.8, a fast mall, ran full speed into the rear of train No. 2, known as the Overland Express, from Denver, which was standing still on the track, telescoping two of the Overland's Pullman cars. Railroad officials refused to fix the blame until after the wreck has been investigated thoroughly. Mrs. F. A. Wilcox, who was in charge of the tower from which the block signals were controlled, said she was certain the block was thrown against both trains. p. m. From Independence to Alrlle.

INDEPENDENCE, OREGON. Archbald Case to Wait. Washington, D. C. It is practically determined that the Archbald impeach ment case will not be tried by the senate this summer. This indicates an earlier adjournment of congress than seemed possible a few days ago. The delay is said to be in accordance with the wishes of Judge Archbald. It was arranged that the senate should be notified of the house resolution of impeachment and that the managers should formally appear next week to de-nand trial. The approaching nolit- ical campaign fa ored a postponement. Gamblers Overlook T. R. Chicago Theodore Roosevelt has not even "showed" on "Jim" O'Leary's book yet. The stockyards bet-taker has the Oyster Bay candidate still in the "field." Wilson is the favorite, with Taft second. O'Leary's oaas are as follows: Wilson, 4 to B; Taft, 6 to 5; Chafin, 2000 to 1; the field, 5 to 1. The book is doing a good business in small wagers, accord ing to O'Leary. Wilson monev is abundant, but little "T. R." coin. Allen Jurors Disagree. Wytheville, Va.
