THE WATERS WILD.
The Levee Broken Above st. Louis
Lowland's Overlooked

The Bevee brokeu AooNo Ss' ASeS
Lowland's Overlooked
Sr. LOUIS, May 5.-The levee along
the river bank at q point opposite Ma
make Oh the Chicago and Alton railroad
abou, eight miles north OF East St Louis,
broke this morning and the water Is
now overfiowing a strip OF bottom land
between the Chicago and Alton railroad
track and river. The crevasse is said to
be fiity feet wide and several feet deep.
The effect of this break will simply be to
overflow the narrow piece OF bottom
between Numakie and Venice on the
south, and some farming lands on the
north, bet the Chicago and Alton
railroad bed and the river. A large ex-
ira force OF men have been put to work
on the Chicago and Alton track to pa
troll and strengthen it. Unless the river
is high enough to overflow this embank-
ment also, no material damsge will be
done other than washing out some grow
The situation in East St. Louis is
practically unchanged. The river seems
TO be nearly stationary to-day, and many
have ceased to fear any great additional
rise.

PARIS, May 5-General exasperatlon
has been caused here by the Dendacious
letter whicb,Ali Bey has addressed to his
brother, Mahomad-el-Ssdok, accusing
the French troops OF horrible atroci.:.
ties at Ben Bachir. "Men and women"
writes Ali, "were slaughtered indiscrim
inately, not even pregnant women be.

bowled females lying in hut which

beside them. / had to alter my route

All had a double purpose in penning
this letter. He hoped to excuse his ig.
nominious retreat satisfactorily to the
Tunisian fanatics and TO avenge himself
on the French generals for forbidding
him to enter Beja- General Logerot
has protested against the letter.

by scissors. One OF the alleged mur.
