Governor Walton is Skirmish Col. Key lators Orders Them to Hold , Omaha, Neb., With several famfc lies homeless as the result of the worst storm in the history of the city. Red Cross workers, headed by Miss Holyce Brown, began relief work in Council Bluffs Saturday. All Red Cross war workers were drafted into the service. Soup kitchens were established in the inundated areas in charge of the Red Cross workers. School houses were thrown open and hundreds of cots placed in the classrooms for the sufferers. The death toll in eastern Nebraska and western Iowa was brought to twenty with the death in Council Bluffs of Goldie Collier, 12, injured in the tornado Saturday night, and the discovery of the body of Otto J. Dudek of York, Neb., who was drowned in a creek near that city. Workers still searched for five "bodies not yet recovered at Louisville who were drowned. Property loss due to the storm is estimated at $1,500,000. x The loss in Council Bluffs will approximate $1,00,000. Nearly every bridge over Indian creek, which flows through the heart of Council Bluffs, was washed out or so badly damaged that they were condemned as unsafe.- - Council Bluffs streets are covered with three feet of thick mud. All business booses on Broadway except a' few' were forced vto close.' Red Cross workers have not yet sent out a call for aid and it is Believed none will be necessary. All marooned residents of the lowlands can be taken care of by people living on higher , ground, It was said. Train service and wire communi-cation- s were getting back to normal Sunday.

C. (Iron Jack) Walton. When they tried to meet under the constitution as they said, they were dispersed by the military. Charles S. Brice .Speaker Pro-teof McAlester county, at exactly 12 oclock called the house of representatives to assemble In the rotunda of the capital on the fourth floor just adjacent to the legislative chamber of the house of representatives for determining whether a quorum was present. Col. W. S. Key military commander of Oklahomo City immediately Interrupted and requesting the legislators to maintain quiet read the military order, directing that the legislators be dispersed. He stated that it was his duty to disperse them and earnestly pleaded with the members that they do him the courtesy of dispersing quietly and in an orderly manner. I have my orders from the-- adjutant general who has received his Instructions from' the governor, said Colonel Keys. I hope there will be no trouble, that you will do as I ask, He read a special military order signed by Adjutant General Baird H. Markham, which forbids the gathering or assembly of any or all of these members of the' legislature 'at- the state house at noon Wednesday or at any other time or place within the state during the present period of unrest on the ground that such a gathering or meeting Is an ''unlawful assembly In violation of the provisions of the constitution and laws and calculated to bring about a breach of the peace, provoke riot and institute a reign of anarchy and blood shed. I want all of you to move on, commanded Colonel Key, sharply. The troops stood at attention. One of the guardsmen was back of a Browning machine gun. Immediately there was a shuffle of feet and the lawless mob, as the governor has termed them, made for the lone elevator that was running. At 12:08 oclock, eight mlinutes after the legislators 'had attempted to meet, the lobby was cleared and shortly after they were out of the building. Governor Walton had Insisted ever since he declared martial law on September 15, that the legislators, whom he termed a ku klux klan would not meet for the avow, body ed purpose of impeaching him. While the legislators were Cling out of the building, some of them plainly Indignant for they had come miles for just this several groups of girls and state employees stood around, plainly enjoying the legislators discomforture. y i J News Noteo From All Partt of !

There was every Indication the government is prepared to deal severely with any attempt at Bavarian opposition to Its action Wednesday in proclaiming the end of resistance in the Ruhr. Defense Minister Gessler, under President Eberts proclamation, is given wide executive powers, becoming virtually dictator of the German reich. Constitutional guarantees are partly suspended. The proclamation cancels temporarily laws concerning the freedom of speech and the press and freedom of assembly. Existing laws against treason, demonstrations and activities dangerous to the nation are stiffened. The nation appeared facing danger of early civil war, as both Bavaria and the Reich mobilized their forces and prepared for action. Bavarias action was wholly unexpected and the government leaders were at first at a loss to account for it. Although it Is not viewed as a studied affront to the central government, the manner In which It was launched was construed as a piece of censorial crltlcls.pi of the way in Which the . Berlin government has called off passive reslstence In the Ruhr. This view prevailed despite assertions from Bavaria that her measures were wholly prompted by the suspicious activities of the guards of Adolph Hitler, the national socialist leader, and their allied organizations. Official opinion In Berlin Inclines to the belief that Dr. von Kahr will be fully able to cope with the situation in Bavaria and that the outbreak there Is unlikely to extend beyond the Bavarian frontiers, despite the noisy agitation of the factions whose classed as fighting strength Is asserted to be grossly overestimated. spot near Lockett, and it was not until hours afterward that some of the details of the accident became known here. The train plunged into the Coal Creek, swollen to many time ito normal depths because of cloudbursts and heavy rains and passengers were engulfed in the raging torrent that poured through the channel, with little or no chance of escape. A wrecking crew sent .from Casper found upon arriving at the scene of the tragedy that the work of attempting to rescue those caught In the crash was practically impossible during the night because of the darkness and flood conditions. With nothing of an absolutely nature upon thich to base a truly conservative estimate. It was believed by railroad officials that between fifty-fiv- e and sixty-fiv- e passengers on the Burlington night train bound for Denver met their death in rushing waters when that train went through a bridge and was submerged by a flood which swept down Coal creek. Four lost their lives In the Casper Pullman, while the others who perished were drowned in the day coach, smoker and baggage and express cars. The express car was completely wrecked. Engineer Spangler, Fireman Mallon and Conductor Frank Guff of Casper, are reported to have lost their lives in the wreck. The engine and tender had gone over the bridge when the collapse rame and the locomotive was pulled back Into a raging torrent, dragging the engineer and fireman under watte er. The express and baggage car, together with the day coach, were carried into the flood with the forward Pullman portion of the Casper nosing Into the stream and drowning four In the smoking compartment. The Montana Pullman remained on the track and no one in this coach was injured.
