After an Investigation he found the resolution hod been passed by the board at the Instance of a railroad attorney. The Senator voted for the Thomas bill. Pare Food Bill Contest. Another pretty fight the house will have en its hands this week will be over the 1 pure food bill, which caused a spectacular debate In . the senate. The fight In the Upper body was concentrated on two soc- . tlons of the bill and resulted In about an von break, the friends of the measure S'iVlng one of the sections, the other being , replaced by a substitute.

This the re tailers contend Is only fair to them, be cause they have no means of knowing of their own knowledge what the contents of original packages are or whether they comply with the law. They also contend to make the jobbei alone responsible would help to secure the co-operation of the re tailer in the enforcement of the law. The various organizations represented here In the fight before the senate all con tend they are anxious for a good pure food law, but they do not want a law so much more stringent than the national law that It would prevent manufacturers from doing business In this state. They fear the Ne braska retailers would be unable to sell tha goods put up for general sale over the oountry, and this business, which Is vast, would be transferred to the big catalogue house outside the state whom a local law would not touch. The senate bill Is now before the house and the fight on the ob jectionable features has been transferred to that body. Ignored Good Advice. pttie action of the house and senate In refusing to pass an anti-pass bill and an anti-lobby bill during the first part of the session as Qovernor Sheldon wanted them to do Is now coming up like a ghost to haunt the members. There is no question but those "prominent" cltlsens who have been he.re during th last week to help tht railroad lobby came In on free passes Issued by the railroad lobby as part payment for the services to be rendered. From reliable sources It was learned today that conductors are taking up as many free trip passes and have been during the last week as In the old days when every poli tician of any Importance rode on passes. Had the legislature promptly enacted Into law an anti-pass bill It would at least have coat the railroads something to bring their hirelings to Lincoln to drag their chestnuts out of the fire. Dut the legislature didn't do It and the men cam and they did their work and they will come back next week. During the early days of the session Oovernor Sheldon suggested that an anti lobby bill be passed and the" state house freed from these obstructors of Just leg islation, but such a law a' as not enacted. As a result, the senate has had to order lobbyists off (he floor, Jhlle the house witnessed the disgraceful spectacle of a generally supposed respectable lawyer atooplng to I hp level efia wardheeler and fighting the ytchts 'of tha people en the floor of the ,hess.: This man I H.

CINCINNATI, March 16 The river stage at 9 o'clock I f9.2 feet, rising oneltenth of a foot an hour.

The river will continue to rise tonight and tomorrow and by Monday a turn will come. The water has crippled a few street car lines which traverse the lower parts of the city, but no extensive damage has been re ported. Up the river th situation Is more serious. This Is especially true at Marietta and Portsmouth, where the crest of the flood Is passing. At Marietta two-thirds of the city Is flooded and there Is considerable suffering, ss nearly all of tha groceries and markets have been flooded. Families on the hills are baking bread for those who have been driven from thefr homes. . At Portsmouth two levees broke, letting th water encroach on territory not here tofore flooded.

For tomorrow a stage of a little over 10 feet Is calculated. Tonight the task of cleaning th streets In th downtown district was completed and workmen are clearing the Interiors of build ings. Several mills and manufacturing estab lishments began operation tonight and an endeavor will be made to make up for the time lost. Within two or three days It Is thought all the mills will have resumed. The loss In the Pittsburg district Is esti mated at $10,000,000. Report from up-river points Increase the damage In western Pennsylvania to at least 116,000,000. The exact number of fatalities caused by the high water has not yet been ascertained. A score of persons are known to have met death In the flood and additional reports of many deaths were received by the coro ner today. However, the reports have not been verified. Relief Work, In Good Shape. The work of relief in Pittsburg, Alle gheny and McKeesport Is In excellent shape. The councils of McKeesport appro priated 12,600 for the flood victims of that olty and this amount was greatly Increased by private subscribers. In Pittsburg and Allegheny the charity departments are car ing for the sufferer. Electric light plants were repaired today and after two nights of darkness street lamp were lighted tonight. Th street car service Is In almost full operation, with th assurance that a complete resumption Will b possible by Monday. v Family Drowned at Marietta. MARIETTA, O..
