PEOPLE SEEK SAFETY IN HILLS Water Pour From Hillside Down Dry Canvon, Swelling Willow Creek to Raging Torrent. Heppner, Or, July 14. At 3 30 ye terday afternoon a cloudburst brought water in torrents from the hills about town, driving Willow creek out of it bank 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, ami 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.

Alien, associate cuiiur in 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 anneal, which the lumbermen state wou'd not seriously embarrass them in gointf 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 bisis, which would force the lumbermen to make all shipments under bond to pay 1.. hli-hrr rate should the courts finally overthrow the decision of the interstate commerce commission.
