The situation In tho Overhowed Districts
 of the South Becoming More and More
 Alarming.
 NEW YORK, April a.-The Herald's vicksburg, Miss special says: The situation of the overfowed districts be- comes more and more alarming. The great Delta country, composed of the counties of Tunica, Coahoma, Bolivar, Washington, Sun Flower, Le Fibre, 1ssa- quena, Sharkey and parts of Yazoo and Warren. is in immediate dangcr of in- undation. It is safe to say that 40, 900 peo- pie, mostly negro immigrants fror1 the Carolinas, Georgia and Alabama, have settled there. In the last few years four different railroads have been built throughout this country, and traffic on them is all now at standstill. It is conceded by all experienced persons that tits but matter of but few days when tho greater portion of this vast area of cotton land will be under water. Much loss of life has been reported from points near and immediately back of the crevasses, and no doubt many peo- pie who settled on low land remote from the railroads and river front have found themselves unable to escape. There is no immediate prospect of cessation of the flood owing to the continued rains.

MURDER BY WHOLESALE.

Rival for the Famous Bender Family
 Sentence of Graclan Chleborad. at Att
 wood. Kas., to Fifty Years Imprison-
 ment for Killing His Brother-A Series
 of Disappearances Now Thought to Have
 Been Caused by Murder.
 ATWOOD, Kan, April 5.--Judge Ber- tram on Thursday sentenced Gracian Chleborad to fifty years in the penitcn- tiary for murder. Chleborad is about thirty years old, and will probably not live to serve his time out The crime of which he was convicsea was poison ing his younger brother Joseph last De- cember Strange to say, although there was proof positive of strychnine in the dead mans stomach, and every circum- stance pointed to Gracian as the mur- derer, the jury returned a verdict of murder in the second degree, acquitting Mrs. Chleborad, Gracian's wife, who was indicted with him. The Judge, how ever, made amends for the jury's action by pronouncing a sentence that virtual ly amounted to life Imprisonment.
 If the evidence of Chleborad's neigh bors is to be believed. the poisoning of Joseph Chleborad was the last of a series of murders that, if investigated, will prove as horrible as the infamous Bender crimes exposed in 1873. The Chleborads lived on claim that was originally settled by Mir. Shaw, who mysteriously disappeared. Evidence indicated that he was murdered for his money and his body thrown into an abandoned we'll on the divide not far from the Shaw dugout After awhile the Chleborads, consisting of man and his wife and three sons,o which Gracian was the oldest, took the claim.
 In the course of time Mrs Chleborad died mysteriously and her place Of burial was never known. The event oc- casioned comment but the people seem ed to be afraid of the Chleborads, and it was never investigated. It was gen. erally believed, however, that she was murdered and her body thrown into the well. Later the old man died suddenly, and the neighbors again suspected poi soning. This was followed by fresh burial in the we'll. This crime was charged to Gracian Chleborad and his wife, May. A few months later one of the brothers disappeared, and Gracian said that he had gone to Nebraska; but the boy never came back, and it is sup posed the we'll received another victim.
 Last December young Robert was poisoned, and the murderer was detected by party of neighbors, who met Gra- elan with the body of the boy on his shoulder, making straight for the old we'll He was arrested and the murder proved. An effort has been made to have the county commissioners dig out the old well now neasly filled up, when proof of all these horrors is likely to ap- pear
