an realize who know the distress of clogged
air passages catarrhal deafness offensive
bTeath raising of mucus and lowered

condition of the mucous membrane—that
delicate lining of the air passages of nose
throat and head. When this is corrected
catarrh disappears. Salves and local oint-

Oklahoma City
Is Threatened
OKLAHOMA CITY Oct. 5.—<iP>-
Overburdened j Oklahoma streams
swelled beyond their capacity con-
tinued today tbeir task of carrying
a record breaking rainfall to the
Mississippi.
Property loss runn ng into millions
of dollars will result. Hartletts- j
ville on the Canry river bore the
brunt of the damage with more than
$1000000 estimated loss from high :
waters.
As the smaller waterways in the
state began to recede last night
indications point 'd to additional j
floods on Oklahoma’s larger streams ]
as the tributaries emptied into!
them. The first indicat on that
Oklahoma City might feel the weight
of the disastrous flood came* late
j last night from points in th<» upper!
valley of the North Canadian.
Lnvcnn. in the heart of a wide
water shed winch feeds the North
Canadian is reported to have re-
ceived four inches of rainfall over
| the weekend and a rapid rise n the
river was reported there. Canton
further down the stream reported
the river was rising six inches an I
I hour and was bank full.
Gates of the dam at the city res-
ervoir were opened yesterday to let
the excess water pass down stream.
Tulsa reported that the Arkansas
| was rising four inches an hour and i
‘ that the crest was expected to be |
I rearhed today. More than fifty j
families are homeless in Tulsa and j
many more were moving from the
lowlands early today.
Railroad companies had made no
I check up of their losses today al-
i though estimates were placed at |
j half million dollars in bridges and I
: tracks that had been washed out.
State highways also were damaged j
in portions. Many bridges have
been reported washed out. The crop
i loss will be the largest item. Hun- !
' dreds of acres of lowland cotton .
| have been destroyed.

Mrs. Katherine Heennan. mother

daughter had given up the mag- J
nificent Long Island home Mr.
Browning bought for h'r.
“Oh. that is one of the the
things that never came through.”
said Mrs. Heennan. “That was
good on paper and in the papers. I

There were hits of things that
never happened and the palace on
Long Island was just one of them.”

at the hotel where Ormiston is said
to have registered under the name
of George Mclnt'ri. Evidence previ-
ously introduced showed the cottage
at Carmel-by-the-Sen where Keyes
claims Mrs. McPherson spent the lat-
ter part of May with Ormiston was
leased by Ormiston under the name
of Mrlntire.
The first attack on Mrs. McPher-
son’s storv was made at yesterday’s
session of the preliminary hearing
when Deputy District Attorney Joe
Ryan from the witness stand de-
clared he "knew" it to be false.
Ryan conducted an investigation
from the district attorney’s office
when the pastor r -appeared at Doug-
ins Ar r.ona last June with a dra-
matic recital of an escape from her
abductors. He also investigated the
“strange actions” of Ormiston now
a fugitive from justice.
To substantiate the contention Mrs.
McPherson was the begoggled wom-
an who shared a seaside cottage with
Ormiston at Carmel Ryan told of
having found two grocery slips in
the house after it was vacated by
th? couple. He swore they were
“obviously" in the handwrit ng of
the woman pastor.
The slips have since disappeared
Ryan explained and could not he
offered in evidence. They w»re lost
in the grand jury room during a re-
cent inquiry of Mrs. McPherson's
kidnaping charges. he said. He
avers he last saw them in th? hands
of Mrs. Edith Holmes one of the
grand jurors. The grand jury sub-
sequently was dismissed and the
lists never were recovered. Photo-
stat c copies were preserved and
were admitted in evidence at yes-
terday's hearing over the vigorous
protest of defense counsel.

friends and myself to accept the
hospitality of your Chamber of Com-
merce during our visit to Browns-
“It will ho nteresting to us to
cross the Rio Grande into Mexico as
you suggest and looking forward to
becoming acquainted with your city
and the I.ower Rio Grande Valley of
the remarkable fertility and great de-
velopment of which I have heard
most favorable reports I am." etc.
An invitation by the Browns-
ville chamber was extended through
Manager G. C. Rlchnfdspn bn Sep-
tember lk. following press dispatches
stating that Mr. Kahn's party would
vi.it San Antonio and South Tex-
as during their return from a trip
to the Pacific coast. The letter was
written to Mr. Kahn's office in New
York from where it was forwarded
to California.
Mr. Kalin is Jirau of the New
York hanking f rm of Kahn. I.oeb
&• Company and one of the wmrld’s
foremost financiers. In addition to
his fame as a banker he has also
achieved wide r?eognition in music
circles through his interest in the
art.
The coming of this party of capi-
talists is regarded by Mr. Richard-
son as a further recognition of the
growth and fertility of the Lower
Rio Grand? Valley. “The Valley.” he
said “is demanding and receiving
national #tt**ntion one of the most
promising sertions of the country."

Two hundred miners are said to

j the men in a manner similar to that
which t<ok a toll of 12 lives in al
most the same location in July 1926.
Bodies C barred
The four bodies found have been
partially identified as George Ridell.
W. C. Elliott Gather Smith and
Harry Lingo though positive identi-
fication was made virtually impossi-
ble by their charred condition ami
the decapitation of one. The bodies
of Ridell and Elliott were removed
from the mine this morning. The
other two will be brought out later
today. The condition of the bodies
o? Ridell and Elliott indicated ac-
cording to mine officials that they
were only stunned by the blast itself
and succumbed later to the “after-
damp.”
Anxious relatives—mothers with
babies in their arms—waited at the
mouth of the entry for the rescue
workers to emerge. All of them
brought the same discouraging Re-
ports—that no life could exist within
a quarter or half mile of the scene
of the blast.
The explosion occurred in one of
the farthermost regions of the mine
nearly three miles from the mouth
of the entry and approximately 800
feet under the mountain side.
The rescuers must proceed approxi-
mately a mile and a half in a strnight
direction from the mouth then turn

arguments for cancellation of the
lease on tBe ground of fraud.

loan bjf Dcheny to Albert B. Fall
then secretary of the interior ap-
proximately a year before the con-
tracts and leases were executed did
not constitute a bribe and that the
secretary had acted after the judge
advocate general of the nnvv had
assured him of his right to do so.
Hogan argued that the governmet^
evidence failed to disclose any con-
neetkn between the contruct and the
loan which was on a promissory note
and added that Fall had no part in
framing or promoting the navy's
“removal” policy regarding the oil
although he had been consulted in
the development of that policy.

in cancelling them.
