Denver, Colo. 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.

I waters ..of Cherry,. , creek, about 15
miles from Denver, has been weak
ened almost to the bursting point, and
should the dam go out it would be
difficult to predict what the extent of
damage would be. ,
The torrential rain began about S
o'clock in the afternoon, and soon af
terward the water was above the
curbing in the business district, flood-
mg stores and hotels. 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

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.

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.
