Jan. 4.-Trafflo on all railroads operating In the western section of Kentucky and on several lines In other parts of the state Is demoralised as a re suit of heavy rain a The creeks and livers In the southern and western portions of the state are out of their banks. In and around Henderson the Illinois Central, Louisville A Nashville and Henderson railroads tracks are under water so that trains cannot pass. Many trains have been annulled entirely. .The rain was general even in the eastern section of the state until today, which has brought clearing and much colder weather. The biggest rise In years in the Ohio developed over night, when a boom that one tkne seemed to portend a flood stage developed. For a time the river rose at tht rate of a foot an hour. This morning the official gauge registered sixteen feet eight inches on the falls, nineteen feet In the canal and forty-four feet two inches at the foot of the locks. By noon the rise was checked somewhat, the Increase being at the rate of four Inches per hour. UTICA. N. "T..

Two high way bridges over the new channel of the river at this city have been carried away. The rainfall for twenty-four hours was 1.26 inches or considerably more than' the rainfall of any one day during 1906. TERRB HAUTE, Ind., Jan. 4.

Cos. Mike Kelley may be called the Jefferson Dvia of base balL As the ex-president oi the defunet contederacy was a man with out a country, so tho ex-St. Paul-Minne apolis manager is a player without a lvuguu or wiiuoul a legal siaius in oaae uau. tiia case is far fruoi settled, thougn his recent expulsion as a result of the umpire episode did seem to put a finish tu it. A new aspfct was given the case In President Ban Johnson's decision tol Kellay was an Ineligllile pluyr, not free to slgu where he pleased. Juhrson holds that St. luls actually controls Kelley, but tnat that team would be unable to sell him or allow him to play with another team. And Kel ley persist In saying be will not play with the tirowns. Topeka Is rejoicing over the action of the magnslea ft the Western league in drafting Topeka and St Joseph In order lo give au elrit-oiuu league, and Topeka lays aside all uouU as tu that plan beiug actively carried out. After telling of the sentiment in the Kansas capital, a corre spondent to tho Sporting News quotes Dick Cooley, the veteran, who is still manager of the Topeka team. In this wise: "I fed very much elated over the action taken by the WeBtern league magnates. We have been making a Hingle hanued right to shake on the smaller towns in this league and get into the company in which we rightfully belong. Ever since I have taken hold of the Tooeka team our aim has Ix-en to give Topeka the btwt ball we posHlbly could, and we realise that in working for our own interests we are also advancing the Interests of Topeka as a ball town, which deserves and will get a hiKli class team. "We will have a first dlvlBlon team In the Western league next season without a doubt. Of course, there may be a hitch In the plans, but It is hardly probable we will have a harder lot to contend with next sea son and I am of the opinion that allhoush we will be in faster company yet we will be able to get together a team that Topeka will bo proud of." Bob Ganley Is bapk with Cantlllon, not Mike, but Joe- CanDUon bought the siuruy Imle rebel from Pittsburg. Fred Clarke conceded his skill and powers as a fielder, base runner and butsman, but objected to the. task of trying to manage him. Uanley is one of the tough necks. Uanley once played for Cantlllon at Milwaukee and led the American association in batting and buse running. He then jumped to the coast, but Cuntillon afterward got him to return and play for the Des Moines club, and h then led the Western league In hitting and running the bases. Cantlllon thinks Uanley a great ball player In every way, and be. lleves he will prove a pillar of strength to i ne wasmngion ciuo. The fifth annual Orroond-Daytona beach program is of Interest to owners and makers of fast motor cycles, for the Flor ida Kast Coast Automobile association has decided to Include three free-for-sll events for those machines. The competitors will also be given opportunities to go after time records and will be timed by the electric timing device which has bren so successfully employed In the two laxt meets. Given such splendid conditions as exist on the famous Florida beach, and it Is confidently expected that foreign records will be scaled down materially.
