roundines. Authorized sketches were OBJ
tanned for numerous illustrated papers. The

GREAT FLOODS MEXICO.

Destroyed. &C.
(By telegraph 20 the Dispatch.

ST. LOUIS, June GA specisl dispatch
from the Cts Of Mexico says: Teltgraphic
communication, which has been interrupted
for several DAYS by the floods. has been re-
stored, and particulars Of the terrible dIsas-
ter on The line OF the Mexican Central rail-
way, particularly sc Leon and Silao, are OBJ.
tanned. During the past ten days the table,
lands between here and Zlcatecas have been
visited by Unprecedented rains. All the
mountain rIyulets along he Central railway
for more than two hundred miles have been
converted into destructive torrents, and the
valleys present the appearance OF lakes.
Many cities and towns have been inundated,
and Leon aud Silao have been partially de-
stroyed. The houses In this county are al
most universally OF adobe, which soon be-
came saturated, and when exposed to the ac-
ton Of the current Of water speedily fell TO
pieces Al SlaO about 325 houses were de-
stroyed. but Il don't appear that there was
any loss OF life, the suffering being prnci'
pally from exposure aud scarcity OF food,
At Leon, however, the climax OF the flood
came IN the night. and people were crushed
or drowned in their falling houses aud in
endefyors 10 escape 10 high ground. The
town was I'm the centre OF lake which had
formed about il from the sudden uprising OF
the river.
The estimates Of loss rather increase than
diminish as Investigation proceeds. June
10Th was the night OF the greatest disaster.
The very last statement just received places
the number OF houses destroyed in Leon at
2.224 and the homeless families at more than
/ 900. More than 259 bodies have been re-
covered from the RUNS, aud there is no pro-
liability that the entire number will fall
short OF 200.
A dispatch from Fl Paso places the esti'
mate Of loss far beyond the City Of Mexico
adyices. II says in the flooded district mot
exclusively Leon 1900 lives were lost. and
that 600 bodies have been recovered. Leon
IS a city OF 100000 inhabiian.s. and large
part Of il IL ia ruins.
The Mexican collector OF customs at Paso
del Norte received an Official dispatch stating
that 100 miles OF the Mexican railroad is I'M
and that II will be ten days before
the mails can get through and twenty days
before freight can be moved.
