ST.. LOUIS, Feb. IA, 1884.


Ed. FREE Press A severe frost
and snow storm last night put an
end to the rain which has been fall
ing in and about St. Louis for five
days and nights. From accounts re-
ceived this morning the condi'
ton of affairs along the Ohio river
could not be more frightful. Thou
sands of homeless and hungry fami
lies are seeking the hill tops and ele
waited situations, camping out in the
woods and almost perishing from ex,
posure. All this in the midst Of win
ter. At 5 o'clock this morning the
river reached the awful hight of sew
enty feet and eleven inches, absolutely
blotting out all past records in the
memory of the country, and the cease
less, merciless rains make it impossi,
BILE to conjecture when and where
this national calamity will end. Many
lives are known to be lost anda great
many are in danger, foundations are
giving way and hundreds OF houses
collapsing and tumbling into the
swelling current. The situation
at Cincinnati, Pittsburg and Louis
vile and q hundred smaller towns is
distressing and critical in the extreme.
Aid is going forward rapidly from
st. Louis and similar movements are
going on all over the country.
The clerk of the criminal court re-
ceived the decision of the Supreme
court this morning affirming the
death sentence of Matthew Lewis
convicted of Wandering his wife
Lewis has had four trials and been in
Jail nearly eight years. He has made
a long bitter fight for life but has
now given up all hope. Your cores
pondent visited the doomed man this
morning and found him writing to
friends and making preparations to
meet his fate March Is.
It is we'll known that the supreme
court has under consideration six OF
eight murder cases and the inmates
of "murderer's row. in our city jail
are in dismay.
There is great deal of crime in
St. Louis this winter, also much
distress. An unusual number of men
seem to be out of employment, and
idle multitudes have always been
one of the principal difficulties to be
met with by governments. The worst
of it is, in large cities, much OF this
idleness is compulsory, and really
good men who seek work can't get It,
The embargo on American pork by
France and Germany has caused
large packing houses to shut down
and tens of thousands in Chicago and
st. Louis are thrown out of employ
ment in mid winter without dollar to
meet the hunger and cold of the day
