THE FLOODS IN THE SOUTH.
The Latest Reports from the Over
flowed Country Below Cairo
The 'Sunk Lands" of the st. Francis Sub
merged, and Great Volume of
Water Pouring Southwark.

ST. LOUIS, March 4.-The latest news from
the overlooked country along the lower Mis-
sissppi river is that what are known as the
Sunk lands" in the St, Francis river region,
are entirely submerged, and that nearly as
far down as Helena there are but few places
above water. People are living
in the upper stories of houses,
where there is more than one story
to the house, or are floating around on RATS
or in boats Most of them, however have
deserted the country and gone to the high
lands back from the river. Several lives are
reported lost in this region, but no definite
information is given. Five railroad
laborers who were lost in the overflow were
pitched up in a boat, day or two ago, in a
starving condition, they having been with
out food nearly a week. All the bavous in
this region are rising rapidly, and great
volume OF water is pouring southwark, which
will reach Helena about Tuesday. All rail-
road grading in this section has been sus-
pended
New Madrid, which is further north, is
submerged there being from two to four
feet OF water in all the streets, and there is
scarcely house in town the lower part of
which is not in water The whole country
OdJh VI WIS place do lar as OdlTO, OH the MIS-
souri, side, and from Hickman south
for over fifty miles. is inundated, and much
property in the way of corn, live stock.
fences, ETC., destroyed. No great amount of
suffering is reported, however, the people
generally being in better condition to meet
the circumstances than last year.
At Arkansas City the water is still about
two feet lower than last year. The back
water in the town is more than q foot higher
than in the river, and is running over low
spots in the levee back into the river. Near
ly all the business houses and residences have
water in them, and business is
good deal curtailed. The Little
Rock, Mississippi River Il Texas Railroad
is still in operation, and the superintendent
is taking every means to keep the road in
working order good many women and
children have been sent out of town to
friends on the high ground back from the
river. Only one case of real restitution has
yet been reported The losses of stock
around Arkansas City are much less than
last year. The Boiver county levees on the
Mississippi are still intact and it is hoped
that section of country will escape overflow
this year The roadmaster and two men of
the Memphis and Little Rock railroad were
preciptated into the water at Black Fish
bayou on Friday night and as nothing has
been heard of them it is feared they were
drowned
