DESTRUCTIVE wlNDs-SARRow ESCAPES
n Is jn,pcssibe TO give details Of tho losses to
this city by the wrecked and floating houses. The
wind last night added to the number wrecked In
the eastern part Of the city where the greatest loss
has been felt, there being more frame hcnses in
that section. Fortunately, far, of loss of
life has been known. though in several cases the
families have boon taken from their houses just
before the water bore them away AS rule the
neope cling to their houses until there is immediate
and absolute danger.
The Panhandle station is completely surrounded.
The water reaches half a square above Third-st.
At Loek-st. the Grand Central Depot has from six
10 eight feet of water on the floor At Mill-5t. the
water reaches into Fourth-st. Further west IL
crosses Fifth-st.. and at the Cincinnati, Hamilton
and Dayton depot reaches half way up to Sixth-st.
At Freemaa-ave. it crosses Sixth-st. In the west
end the encroachments extend eastward as tar as
Freeman-st. Lincoln PARK is q lake, except httie
corner.
SUFFERING FROM THE COLD.
The sudden cold last night made the suffering
more intense, as many people in the flooded houses
are not provided with fuel else have no facilities
for using it, The Chamber of Commerce has sent
barge of coal to Lawrenceburg and $500 cash, ana
has started two carloads of provisions on the Ches-
apeake and Ohio Railroad to IrOnton.
In Newport, KY, this morning the scene was
most lesoate. The high wind last night moved
the waters so as to topple over many more build
incs and, looseued from their foundations, they
have swung into the streets, causing in many cases
to the relief boats great difficulty in passing around
them. The need of help m Newport is increasing,
as the stores of the imprisoned families grow less
and less. Fortunately 81 900 was received there
this morning from Secretary Lincoln and another
81 600 from the Cincinnati Chamber of Commerce..
The afar having crossed the Lexington pike,
Covington, KY, is now island and market
wagons have stopped entering the city.
