FLOODS IN NORTH Wtiitc, Stuck and Green Rivers Drive Farmers From Homes. SMALLER TOWNS UNDER WATER Northern Pacific and Great Northern Railroads Tied Op Throe Lives Are Lost. Seattle, Nov. 15. Floods In the "White, Stuck nml Green rivers, which began Tuesday night, liavo swept away miles of railroad truckage, inundated nil the valley towns?, rendered hundreds of fanners homeless and cos t three lives up to date. Until the Western Union hint night succeeded in getting n wire to Portland, Seattle was entirely ait off from the outside world by either railroad or telegraph lines. The tele phone company kept up two lines, but this was the only means of communica tion Seattle has had. The three men lost in the Hoods wore drowned while fighting to break up log jams that threatened railroad and coun ty bridges. It will bo two weeks beforo the Northern Pacific is able to resume reg ular train opoi ntl jiis. The Great Northern is tied up for a shorter or iod, for trouble on that road is due to on avalanche of mud that swept out a portion of track. Auburn, Kent, O'Brien, Itcnton, Oricllia and half a dozen smaller towns in the valleys of three rivers aro under water. Itosldents of O'Brien were compelled to abandon their homes and 11 ee to the hills. At Kont a raging tor rent is running through tho town and Auburn will suffer extensive damages unless tho waters recede immediately. Tho 50 employes of tho Denny Ken ton Clay works plant at Kenton wore cut off by the flood and had to remain cooped up in tho warehouse until tlioy could bo rescued by bouts. MUCH DAMAGE REPORTED. FOR RIVERS AND HARBORS. Great National Agitation to Improve Waterways Everywhere. A national congress of American com mercial bodies interested in tho devel opment of internal waterways and har bor improvement will meet in Wash ington on tho sixth and seventh of De cember. Oregon will bo represented by a delegation from tho Portland chamber of commerce. The purposo of the congress la main ly to prevail upon tho United States authorities to pass a , measuro culling for an appropriation of fifty millions annually for river and harbor improve ment. Even should such a measuro pass it would still bo but a fraction of what other great nations are axixinditig annually upon their waterways. Tho movement Is a national expression of the knowledge that water competition is tho ono great cheapenor of railroad freight rates railways that compete with rivers for traffic do not pay ex travagant dividends upon watered stock. In those sections of tho country wheroin tho railroads aro eomixilled to curry freight in comiietition with rivor craft tho rates are from one-third to one-sixth of thoso ruling where wator competition is not a factor. It is told of a cotton section in Texas that the canalizing of a very Insignificant stream bo as to bo available for flat bottomed cunul boat, lowered the freight rates so radically as to make a saving to a small community of three million dol lars annually. As a matter of fact tho canalized stream carried but u small percentage of tho traffic upon which this large saving was effected, but tho fact that tho stream was avuilablo for traffic compelled the railways to meet tho water competition. Tho Itivcrs and Harbors congress will discuss tho improvement of tho Oregon and Washington waterways and the removal of obstructing bars at tho entrances of tho harbors and will seek to impress upon tho congress of the na tion tho importance of thoso improve ments to tho farming and mercantile population. Floods In Oregon and Washington Destroy Homes and Bridges. Cnstlo Hock, Wash., Nov. 10. The Cowllt river has lieeotno n raging tor rent, currying house, Uirns, logs and other drift down In tho tlood. Many families nro homcluss and havo mvep but few belongings (rout their ruined homes nnd nro temporarily quartered with friends on higher ground. The Northern lhicitlc bridge across the Cow lite lit 01eiui is unshed out. The town of Castle Hock is in a state of chaos. Klectrio light nro out K causc of the tlood. The town marshal has closed tho saloons to add to the public safety. The lxxiplo are meeting the situation in a philosophic wnv nnd nre not becoming panic stricken. North Ynkiinn, Wash., Nov. 10. After falling slightly tho Ynklma and Naches rivers are again rising and the damage to property of all kinds is growing worse. All communication with the outside by rail is cut off. Ever- county bridge in tho valley is under water and the city is Isolated from the surrounding country. The fears of the itocplo aro that the Naches river mnv change its course ami come down tho old river bed to tho Most of the city. If this hapjwns the damage will be inestimable, us the best fruit orchards and some of the fin est homes In the valley Ho direct in its course. Wenatcheo, Wash., Nov. 1C The flood still rages unabated. Added to tho destruction by the ruin and water, the wind is blowing. Tho damage done by tho flood between Cashmere and Wenntchee, in tho Wenatcheo vnllev, cannot be est limited at tho present timo, but It will bo heavy. Tho We natehee and tho Columbia rivers are higher than they have ever been before. The former is eight inches higher than its former record.

Streams through out tho stato which have been swollen by tho recent mill storms and the Chi nook wind in tho mountains aro thought to have reached their highest point.

Tho mill installed is but small. Only flvo horsopower is required to run tho crusher and other machinery, nnd but ono man is nooriod to superintend tho entire plant. Mining men nro enthusiastic- over tho success of tho mill, and beliovo this chnracter of mill hns solved tho problem of how to handlo tho oro of tho Grand Itondo district. A few years ago it was tho opinion of miners that tho up-river country ores could not bo worked with small capital; that not less than $50,000 or $100,000 would bo re quired to Install n suitable plant for tho treatment of tho ores found there. The trial of tho Aurella company hns proved that tho oro can bo handled on a very much smaller scale, with high pcrccntngo of profits, or oven higher, to tho ton than with heavy stamp machin ery. It is the lutontioti of tho Aurella company to put in another mill noxt in tho samo district will follow their ex-' ample. SUOAB OUTPUT IS LABOE. La Qrando Factory Will Turn Out Over 60,000 Sicks.
