Spencer, March 18.—W. C. Deaton, of .Charlotte, connected with the Char lotte Ford Motor company, narrowly escaped death by drowning near here tonight when his automobile, in which he was returning to Charlotte from Greensboro, was washed off the fill on the approach to the bridge over the Yadkin river. Mr. Deaton's ear was carried to a point in the flood waters where if. was impossible for him to swim on account of the swift current, and the water too deep to regain the shove by wading. He was rescued after about an hour spent clinging to the top of his ear. by being pulled in at the eml of a rape attached to a mule. Mr. Deaton’s car was among sev eral automobiles washed off the till approaching the Yadkin bridge <tur ing the day, all of the motorists being rescued without personal dam age. Mr. Deaton’s baggage, however, was lost in the river. Mr. Deaton had driven to Greens boro intending to bring Mrs. Deaton and child hack to Charlotte, after their visit to relatives. Mrs. Deaton however, was ill. and Air. Deaton returned without her. It is consid ered likely that, had Mrs. Deaton and the child been in thi- car the acci dent would have resulted fatally for them*. Mr. Deaton, after his rescue, \vas taken to the Young Men’s Christian assicintion, given dry cloth ing, and placed aboard train No. 35 for Charlotte. His Car was left in the river. The Hardaway Contracting com pany, which is building a new high way bride over the Yadkin here, sus tained the loss of a considerable amount of lumber and bridge mate rial by the stuff being washed away in the flood. Work on the bridge will be delayed in consequence, it is said. The bridge over the Yadkin is re ported as still intact. (Train drews reaching iSpencer -from points as far north as the Dan river in A’irginia reports streams in all section very high, and much work done by work crews to weight down In-idges to prevent tlieir washing away. It is stated that several had w*recks might have occurred hut for the w ork done by these, crews. The flood in the Yadkin Has reached within nine feet of the 1916 record. There have been frequent reports of horses and mules being drowned, and in one instance a horse and buggy was swept into the Yadkin, the horse being carried away by the stream, but the driver being rescued.

March 17.—Premier Poin care will entertain no proposition for negotiations with Germany until the Berlin government makes it known di rectly and officially to France that she wants to negotiate, it was declar ed today in French official circles.
