Sept. 8 Tarrying death and destruction in its wake, a Hood swept down the Rio Puerto valley, in Northwestern New Mexico, bursting the $1, 000,000 dam and wash ing: out five miles of the Hante Fe main line track. The water narrowly misses turning over the 'California Limited" the finest train on the Santa Fe. With passengers paniostricken as the roaring waters rushed on them the trainmen decided to take desperate chances and run the train through the river pouring over the track. While the train was passing through the live miles of the Hooded section several ranch houses came Healing down, striking the cars and breaking, the windows. It is reported that a number of ranchers lost their lives in the flood, despite the fact that couriers were sent though the valley to warn them. All wires are down and it is impossible to learn the names of those reported drowned. The Santa Fe main line will be out of commision for weeks. Trains are being run over the Southern Paci fic from Maropla to Ash Fork and then over the Santa Fe again. Negro Drowned by Mob.

Sept. 8 Unofficial reports received today from the coun try home of B. H. Harriman, near here, were that Mr. Harriman was In a very weak condition during tne morning. It was impossible to ob tain any definite statements as to the financier's illness. Drs. Walter B Lyle, and ueorge K. Brewer be seen. A telephone call from here lo the Harriman home was answered by a trained nurse. "Air. Harriman is about the same," she said. "I cannot tell you any more." It. was learned that the one great fear of the physicians who are at Mr. Harrinian's bedside Is that another attack of acute indigestion may come on him while lie is in his present weakened condition. If this should occur it is feared that he could not survive the attack. The attack of Sunday left Mr. Harriman in such a weak condition that oxygen is being' administered to him, it is stated by attaches of the Harriman estate.

Several men in the pay of Wall street concerns are making their headquarters here, and I hey don't hesitate to admit their missions. One of these men "We have been sent here to let Wall street know the exact condition of Mr. Harriman as quick as the news papers get it. "A pool has been formed and a physician employed to learn the ex act nature of the ailment. But as I yet it has been impossible to ascer tain this." At 7 o'clock this morning the whis tle on top of the Tower Hill blew as usual to call the men in the valley to work on the vast estate.

I aged to keep fires in the furnaces k Rrowor cnuiH not under free trade, but is putting in new furnaces every year. In other words, this great manufacturing city, which is sending out manufactured goods to every nation of the earth and making money at it, is a stand ing refutation of the logic of Sena tor Aldrich that free trade, or even revision downward of the cotton schedule, spells ruination, speedy and absolute, for everything and everybody connected therewith. The British and American official records of exports of cotton goods show how England is beating the United States by making better use of American cotton under free trade than the United States can under pro tection. Here are the facts as to exports for the last three years: (In millions of pounds.) United United Kingdom. States. 1905 . . 92.0 11.3 Dlt.ti 8.ti 1907 110.4 5.3 British exports of manufactured goods in 1907 were about twenty-one times as great as those of the United States. Yet America is the best and chief source of the raw material. The explanation Is that plant and materials are so dear in America, owing to the high tariff rates, that the United States is denied cheap production. To produce cotton goods cheaply not only cheap cotton is needed, but cheap building materials and plant, and cheap iron, steel, leather, and oil. The American manufacturer is handicapped at every point by protective taxes. At the end of August, '1907, all the world possessed, about 114,000, 000 cotton spindles. So extraordi nary Is the British lead In the cotton trade that at the same date the possessed nearly THE RICKS DRUG CQMPJNY.
