A Village Flooded.
A dispatch from Chicago, dated last

A dispatch from Chicago, dated last
night says:
Five square miles of territory ada
cent to the village of Dauphin, a sub
urb of Chicago. are buried beneath a
flood tonight, and thousand or more
houses between State street and Lake
Michigan are mt the mercy ofthe waves
which strong northeast wind has
forced through the easements and first
floors. The great body of water which
has been collecting in the lake region
has broken all barriers, and this after
noon burst the last barrier at Eighty
seventh street, rushing down with ter
rife force upon Grand Crossing, whose
citizens are panic-stricken by the sight
of a sea of rising water generally invad-
ing every home, driving householders
either from their dwellings or to the
second stories. There is not less than
two feet of water in the streets. Every
basement is flooded and the founda-
tons of numbers of building are weak
ened. The immediate cause of the
flood is the breaking Of the Eighty
seventh street bank. due to an accumu-
lation of water during therecent storm.
Grand Crossing at midnight was in de-
spair. At Fordham and Dauphin Park
the suffering was only less in the de-
gree that there were fewer to suffer and
a less number 10 experience the terror
Of possible death before morning in
waters which were rising at the rate Of
one inch an hour.
Every effort is being made by those
overtaken by the flood to escape with
their families. 1t is only by means OF
improvised RATS that movement from
one point to another is possible. Up to
the present time no loss OF life is re-
ported, but rescue parties have started
TO help those whose perilous condition
give rise TO fear for their safety. Two
boys We're drowned in that part of the
west branch known as Mud Lake. ;"
