BABY'S PITIFUL
CASE OF ECZEMA
Summer Rash Became a Dreadfbl
Itching Humor Big Blister
Formed and Skin Grew as Hard
and Rough as Bark -Scratched
and Tore Flesh till Blood Ran.
Indian creek overflowed Its banks shortly
before 1 o'clock yesterday morning and left
a train of mud and slime on Broadway
and adjacent streets In Its wake, besides
flooding buildings and basements and caus
ing damage running Into the thousands of
dollars.
Debris swept down by the flood In In
dian creek caught In the low hanging
girders of the bridge at North Eighth
street and In a short time formed a for
midable dam. It was at this point that
tha creek first overflowed Us banks and
the water poured like a milt raoe onto
Broadway. With this data at Eighth
street tha water In tha creek riaturwlly
backed up and It was not kong before it
wma pouring over tha ben Its at torenfh
street and half way along the) btoek be
tween Seventh and Sixth streets.
Foe two hour the water poured out of
the ereak tn many places, finding an out
let onto Broadway through buildings and
oellars. At tha corner of Broadway and
Seventh street the water ran through the
Httle grocery store of Dan Wright, leav'
Ing behind tt a coating of mud and slime
several inches thick. The Saloiman wood-
yard adjoining waa turned Into a veritable
lake and west of this, at Charles Lei
hold's saloon, the water filled the cellar
and rovered the floor of the saloon two
feet deep. Much of Mr. Lelbold's stock
of clears and case goods were practically
ruined.
At the Council Bluffs Dye works the
water poured Into the building In a tor
rent and here considerable damage was
done.
West of Eighth street the Metropolitan
Motel was flooded and when the waters
cceded there was a deposit of mud a foot
deep over the ground floor. The Tremont
hotel further west was also badly flooded
and at the Blue Front restaurant near
the Northwestern depot the inmates had to
abandon the first floor. Mud a foot deep
had to be dug out of this place.
Eighth street as far as Avenue O was
covered with mud deposited by the water
from the creek and many cellars of
houses on Avenues A, B and C In that
vicinity were flooded. South of Broadway
Eighth, Ninth and Tenth streets were
covered wlTh mud and debris several inches
deep as far south as First avenue.
The Northwestern railroad, the Street
Railway company and the city had large
forces of men at work early yesterday
morning clearing away the mud on Broad
way but It was a stupendous task and It
will be several days before It is all hauled
away. The streets and alleys fund Is al
ready badly depleted during the first two
months of the fiscal year and this will it
is suspected put a finishing touch to this
appropriation.
The force of the orent on Broadway
was so great during the height of the
flood that big whisky casks were carried
from the Stein Junk yard near . Seventh
street clear down to the Illinois Central
railroad tracks.
At the city hall yesterday It was esti
mated that the damage to streets, pave
ments, curbs, sidewalks and sewers by ths
flood Monday night would amount to at
least 15,000. The hill streets were badly
washed and It will take weeka to repair all
the damage. This damage cannot, of
course, be laid at the door of Indian creek,
but all of that along Broadway and the
adjoining thoroughfares, from 8eventh
street to the railroad tracks, can be.
At Crescent City considerable damage
was reported done by the overflow of Lit
tle Pigeon creek, which cuta through the
town. Some families had to abandon their
homes and made their escape In wagons.
A washout on the Milwaukee line near
Weston caused the first section of freight
train No. 6.1, which left Council Bluffs at
I o'clock yesterday morning, to go into
the ditch. Fifteen cara loaded with fruit
for eastern markets were piled up, but the
locomotive passed over the place without
leaving the rails.

GRXRRAI. PKTITIO IP TODAY
Supervisors Will Consider Matter of
Saloon Licenses.
The announcement made In certain quar
ters yesterday morning that all of the sa
loons of the city would be closed Wednes
day and until after action on the new
general petttlen of consent had been taken
by the supervisors, was declared last night
by J. J. Klein of the firm of Bernhardt
tt Klein, and president of the Iowa State
Retail Liquor Dealers' association, to be
Incorrect.
"I understand some of the saloonmen.
acting on the advice of their attorneys,
have decided to keep closed Wednesday,
or until after action on the new general
petition of consent Is taken by the board
of supervisors, but no general agreement
to this effect has been reached by the aa
loonkeepers," said Mr. Klein, "Our place
will be open, as I fall to see whereby anv
good can be accomplished by closing, or
any harm done by keeping open. If It was
legal to sell today It certainly will be Just
as legal to sell on Wednesday, while the
board Is considering the new petition of
consent."
The Board of Supervisors will canvass
the petition today and present Indications
are that the supervisors will decide that
the new statement of general consent Is
sufficient. It Is doubtful. If any contest
Is made before the board by ths anti-saloon
forces. The petition bears about 3
more signatures than absolutely required.
According to the filings made with the
county auditor yesterday the anti-saloon
forces have not been successful in securing
the withdrawal of persons who had signed
the petition of consent. B. C. F. Chambers,
the district superintendent of the Iowa
Anti-Saloon league, had a force of assist
ants copying off the names of those who
signed the petition and then prepared for
circulation a number of withdrawal state
ments. For some reason or another the
antis did not carry on the canvass very
strenuously and the result has been that
only two withdrawals were secured. At
least only two were filed yesterday.
"It la very evident that those opposed
to the saloons did not make any effort to
secure withdrawals," declared Mr. Cham
bers yesterday afternoon In the office of
County Auditor Innea. "If they had, I
feel sure they could have secured more
withdrawals. As It is. It looks aa if they
were aatisfted to let things go as they are.
If the board finds the statement of con
sent Is sufficient, the finding will probably
hve to be accepted. It will be the busi
ness, however, of the Anti-saloon league to
see that those who are aecurlng the state
ment observe the letter of the law and
that subsequently they live up to it."

DES MOTNKS, la., June 12. (Special
Telegram.) Jease B. Hammond, who has
announced an Intention to stop the sale
of cigarettes In Iowa, called on
Attorney General Byers today and will
write a letter asking him for the Interpre
tation of the law. There la little question
but that the handling or selling of cigar
ettes is Illegal and as soon as hs gets
the opinion of General Byers he will start
a state-wide prosecution of cigarette sell
ers. Dealers all over ths state have taken
It for granted that the paying of the mulct
tax exempted them from punishment for
tha sale. Section 6007 of the code statea
specifically that this Is not ths case.
though nine-tenths of the people of the
state have probably supposed tha law to
operate the same as the liquor mulct tax.
it is believed that General Byers can in
terpret the law but one way and that Is
that cigarettes selling Is illegal and sub
ject to a fine whether the cigarette mulct
tax Is paid or not.
Will Close Archives.
The executive council today decided to
close up the archives department after
September 1. The money available from

through Injunction proceedings. The sa

that Judge Parker and Judge Bradshaw,
the latter of Toledo, were prejudiced and
biased In the opinions regarding the saloon
business and that a fair trial In the dis
trict waa Impossible. In making hla ruling
Judge Darker emphatically denied the
charge and gave the saloonlsts' attorneys
a sound verbal drubbing for making the
Imputation In his court that he could not
Impartially try any cause be it saloon or
