Recalled by Terrible Visitation 10
Three Western States.
Houses Demolished by the Score and
Railroads Abandoned.
Little Known As to the Extent Of
the Loss Of Life.

CHEROKEE, Ia, June 24.-The terrors Of
the Johnstown flood were In part repeated
at this place today. when rs houses were
carried out Of sight in Nagara-llke torrent.
How many lives were lost is matter Of un-
certainty. A terrific cloud burst thrice re-
peated with the wind blowing almost hur-
ricane consummated the dread work the
storm began last night. 1t appears to have
swept vast circle In northwestern Iowa,
fully 100 miles in diameter. Up to 1880 to-
night, owing &c the destruction Of the wires
and railroads, only the Vaguest reports have
reached here from the devastated territory
to the west, north and south. Most OF the
destruction was wrought by the extra
ordinary rise In the Sioux river resulting
from the tremendous downpour Of rain. The
flood carried off apparently without effort
the big truss bridge on which the Illinois
Central road crossed the river, and with the
bridge 400 feet Of trestle on which the COM
pany's tracks approached the river To-
night the Little Sioux Is at the highest stage
ever known. Gangs OF workmen and sever
al railroad telegraphers reached here, but
could get no farther. 1t may be a week or
more before the full extent'of the disaster Is
known. According to the latest advices the
storm falls little short Of great tri-state az

RAILRoADs ABANDONED.
a Large Slice of Iowa Nearly Washed
From the Map.

MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, June PA special
from Sioux City, L., says: Terrible rains
last night and this morning almost destroyed
this portion of Iowa. No roads are running
trains from this city east. The Floyd river
valley is inundated for 50 miles north Of this
city. Many houses at Lemars are flooded
over the first floors. The towns Of Merrill,
Hinton and James are completely sub
merged. Thirty miles Of track on the Illinois
Central, st. Paul, Minneapolis and Omaha
are flooded north Of this city. There are bad
washouts at Lemars. The Little Sioux
river bottom at Cherokee Is entirely inun-
dated and thousands Of acres Of crops are un-
der water. The water at Cherokee carried
away forty houses and barns in the bottoms.
No fatalities are reported. At the same
place the approaches 10 the Illinois Central
bridge over the Sioux are gone. Two hun
dred feet OF track were carried out and sew
en- bridges washed out. The Floyd river
rose over fifteen feet In three hours today,
and tonight the flood Is sweeping through
the Floyd river valley toward this city, de-
VqstiDg hundreds OF acres OF crops. The
manufacturing towns of Leeds, Lynn and
Lewiston are In Its course and will be sub
merged BY morning. Tonight hundreds OF
families on the Floyd river flats In this city
are moving to higher grounds. The railroad
companies have abandoned their yards and
engines, and cars and all kinds Of material
have been removed to higher ground. The
stock in the union and central stock yards
has been removed. The wires east and
north Of here are all down. Reports from
South Dakota are that the Vermillon river Is
out OF its banks and flooding thousands Of
acres OF growing grain. A cyclone at Suth-
erland last night destroyed 10 dwellings,
four warehouses and several barns, aud the
@. u N. w, railroad freight depot. People
took to caves. No one was injured. All the
county and railroad bridges were washed
out"

The Electric Cars.

Owing to delay in the shipment Of one of
the generators, without which the line can.
not well be put in active operation, the cleo
trio cars will not begin making regular trips
for several days yet. Yesterday one Of the
new cars was given trial spin and this
afternoon there will be trial trip over the
line. During the time before the beginning
of the regular service with the electric cars.
some trips will be made with them in order
to familiarlze the drivers with the new work.
In running these cars, men who have driven
horse cars make the best hands at the levers.
The Portland company has in Its employ
many careful drivers and those OF them
whose duty will now be to regulate the elec'
trio current instead of holding the relns over
the horses, will no doubt prove as efficient In
the new positions as they have in the old.
