DAVENPORT Ia, May I2.-The Father
of Waters is on q rampage.
At this point the Mississippi has been
above the danger line for four days and is
steadily rising.
The water is now within a few inches OF
the highest mark recorded, which was in
the great lreshet of 1850. Several manu-
tactnring establishments have been com
PEELED to close, and many families living
in the lower part OF the city are moving as
rapidly al possible. The damage caused
directly and indirectly by the giving way
Of the government water power dam, con
Meeting Arsenal Island with the Illinois
side, is placed at over 5000. coo.
The Mississippi now divides at the head
of Rock Island and a current of ten miles
an hour carries water downward, endau-
gering bridges, mills and business blocks
both here and in Rock Island.
At Dubuque the Mississippi is within
ak inches OF the high water mark. The
damage already done il the washing out Of
railroad tracks, levees and the destruction
Of dwelling houses on the lOwlands Is
heavy. 4 majority of the manufacturing
establishments have been Obliged to shut
down and many men are made IDLE On
tue leyee all the stores have several inches
of water on the llJst floors, and II IS i'm
possible to receive or ship goods. Many
families who have fled from the flooded
districts are living in tents or seeking shel.
ter in public buildings. The river in some
places is several miles wide, and entire
farms are uader water. The damage all
around will reach into the hundreds of
thousands. The railroad tracks are under
water Steamboats, cannot do anything, as
freight cannot be handled at the leyee, and
business il ptralyzed.
