In the Memory Of the Oldest SsttlSrA

CHICAGO, October ls.-The rain fall over
the northwest continues, and danger oI
trouble from high water seems increasing
At Quincy there are fears that the breaking
Of the levee is again imminent, the water
being as high US it was last June. 1t Is be-
ing repaired in the weak spots. At noon
the sun is out here, and there is a little
more favorable prospect for the cessation
Of the rain elsewhere,
KEoEuK, Iowa, October ls,-The Missis-
sippi at this point continues to rise, This
morning at 10 o'clock the stage OF water
was two inches above the great rise Of last
spring, which caused such great damage in
this vicinity. At Alexandria, five miles
below here, the water is backing up over
the prairie and the prospects are that the
town will be completely inundated, the
railroad shops and lumber yards in the
southern part Of the city are completely
surrounded by water and operations have
necessarily been suspended.
A prominent river man expressed tho
opinion that the river would rise another
foot, possibly more, and that the biggest
flood that has occurred within the memory
OF the oldest settlers is now upon us,
ST, LOUIS, October ls.-Dispatches from
along the upper Mississippi river note high
water at various places, and a flood seems
to be apprehentled. AtHannibal the river
is only about one foot below the ireshet OF
last spring. The railroad tracks on the
levee are submerged and the Easements in
South Hannibal are filled with water.
Several miles OF the KeOkuk K st. Louis
railroad are under water and number Of
washouts have taken place. The levee
which broke last spring and caused the in.
undatiOn OF several thousand acres OF farm
ing land and the destruction OF much
valuable property, are again in danger and
II the water rises two feet higher 1t will no
doubt give way at Davenport. At Dubuque
and other places the water Is encroaChing
upon the levee and river fronts, and fear
is felt for the safety OF property.
BURLINGTON, Iowa, October lS,-During
twehty.four hours ending this morning the
river rose here seven inches. 1t is now
nearly stationary, having risen this fore
noon only half inch No damage here.
DAVENPORT, Iowa, October lS.-The Mis-
sissippi Mt this point has fallen three
quarters Of an inch since noon yesterday.
Hopes are now entertained that the worst

down and others are experiencing much
difficulty in running. Weather cool and
no more nin expected.

ger becomes hourly more imminent, The
