WARSAW, Ills, May 9. - Alexandria,
Mo, opposite here, has been flooded by
the breaking of the Egyptian leveen which
skirts the Des Moines river. The local
rain caused heavy rise in that turbulent
stream and, despite all efforts to save it,
the waters broke over and rushed across
the fields of wheat and meadows, doing
ncalculable damage. Reaching Alex
andria, the place was soon flooded and
people were driven from their homes.
