KEoKUK, To-, May 1S.-Tbe Egyptian
levee is still firm. but may break within
a day if the rivers continue to rise as
they have. People living in districts
protected by leyees can do nothing To
prevent them being cut into by the cur
rents, but are simply waiting and pre-
pairing for the worst. The Des Molnes
river is reported rising its entire length,
the rise ranging from a half foot at
Alexandria to three feet at points above.
The Mississippi is also rising. Rain fell
at intervals all day, and the wind is
blowing a gale. Rock Island trains are
delayed indefinitely by washout at
Grand junction.
SPENCER, TO-. May 1S.-A fearful
wind and rain storm from the north
west is raging here. Such a fall OF
water in a similar length of time has
never been known. The River Sioux
has risen two feet and continues to rise.
Milwaukee II st. Paul track was
washed out at a creek two miles east of
this city. the track being carried EN-
tirely off the right of way. The entire
country along the river is under water.
OTTUMwA, To-, May 1S.-The water
in the DeS MOineS river reached the
highest point today since the great flood
of 1851. The electric light plant here
shut down, and this will leave the city
in darkness tonight. Trains are badly
delayed by the heavy rains last night.
MARSHALLTOWN. To-, May 1S.--A ver-
liable tempest has prevailed throughout
Central Iowa for several hours. coming
from the northwest. Trees and out
buildings have been blown down all
over, and much damage wrought. 1t is

twelve hours. No lives are reported
lost, but the dnmage to property and

and the city was inundated.
The rain continued during the

river rose seven feet during the night
and morning found it roaring torrent.
This rise was the most rapid ever seen
here. The river is now at a dangerous
height and Is still slowly rising.
The Rock Island is submerged
and Soldier creek bottom covered
with water. Several families living in
small houses on the fiat we've driven out
by the water during the night. The big
Heath oatmeal mill is again in danger;
a dixie has been built up to keep the
back water away. but rise of two or
three feet will bring the main stream to
the mill. All the railroads are
suffering. No trains on the
Illinois Central from here to Sioux City
today west of Marcus. Supt. Quincy
has 5000 feet of track washed out. Be-
tween Manson and Pomeroy there is
30O-foot washout. The railroad bridge
over the Lizard river threatens to go

Some Official Observations of the
Weather Conditions.

Weather Conditions.
Forecast Official Lyons has few re-
marks to make concerning the present
stress of weather. He says we may ex-
pect clearing and cooler weather by this
morning, and bases this prediction on
the following:
The storm that was central in the vi
cinity of st. Paul this morning has
moved northeastward and is now central
over Lake Superior. Very heavy rain S
of 1.1O inches at Duluth and "a
inch at st. Paul during the last twelve
hours resulted from it. Elsewhere over
the Northwest scattering showers were
reported during that time, and at this
writing rain has ceased and the weather
is generally clear TO fair at all stations
except those two, but during the last
thirtY-SlX hours rains have been heavy
and excessive over this state and South
Dakota. The average estimate for this
state is nearly two inches, and in the
vicinity of Moorhead 2.16 inches fell.
Heavy rains have also fallen during
that time over the greater portions of
the Missouri, Upper and Central Mis-
sissppi and Ohio valleys, and it seems
the worst IS yet to come to the unfort-
unate flooded districts. The river here

from three to four feet over the present
stage of water may be expected during
the next four or five days, and even
with such rise the water will be far
from dangerous stage.
The storm is now moving rapidly to-
wards the lake region, and by Thurs
day morning a general clearing condi-
ton will prevail over Montana, Mani
toba, both Dakotas and Minnesota, with
dry and cool west to northwest winds.

tween LemarS and Sioux City, LemarS
and Remsen and Lemars and Seney.
No trains have arrived since last night.
No damage has been done as yet, as the

DESTROYED on the Floyd bottom, but no
stock lost. Leeds, suburb of Sioux
City, is under four feet of water and in
habitantS are being rescued with boats.
At OScalOOSa thousands of acres of
pasture and farm land are under two
and three feet of water. AT EddyYille
the high water has washed out both ap-
breaches TO the Chicago, Rock Island &
Pacific railroad bridge. Over a thousand
feet of the Chicago, Milwaukee d st.

CONE, To-, May 1S.-A cone-shaped
cloud passed over this town half-mlle

it was about two miles south, in the

water of the creek with terrific roar.

The Des Moines river here rose fully
eight feet, and is now rising two inches

LINCOLN, Neb., Nav 19.-Lineoln is
water bound, not a train can come or
go. For fifty miles east and west all
roads have wash-outs. The Rock Island
east-bound train from Denver is mile
east of here, unable to proceed and
surrounded by water. The situation is
terrible. Two thousand people are
homeless, and today nine Russians,
seven of them children, were drowned
before they could be rescued from
their houses, which were washed away.
A posse made haste for the Hat, and
warned as many as could be reached
before the flood came. Many would
not listen, saying that they had
seen high water before, and stayed
and were drowned. Others were saved
with much of their belongings. The
city council at meeting tonight gave
$1,000 for immediate relief. and several
thousands have been raised for sub
scriptons. The ladies have done nobly,
providing shoes and clothing for the
children. At a late hour this evening
a number of bodies had been recovered.
and the work is still going on.

Andy Call came to the mans rescue,
the seat was replaced and the rig drove

were loosened from their fastenings

GRAND FORKS, N. D., May ia
Northern Pacific train of seventeen
cars was wrecked IN a waShOut this
morning five miles east of Fertile,
Mimi, without warning, in the midstof
darkness and rain. The Ioadbed
seemed to collapse, and instantly the
engine went over ON its back, the pilot
remaining near the track, the cab ana
tender landing bottom up in the ditch,
which was filed with six feet of water.
Mark Purcell, the fireman. was thrown
out of the cab and escaped uninJured.
Engineer Mike Brady went down with
the cab, the heavy oOX seat falling across
his back, securely pinnlng him under the
beater, which filled his ears and throat.
Brady became unconscious. In another
instant,t the conclusion of the telescop-
ing cars struck the tender, raising the
cab above the water and releasing
Brady from the wise which held him.
By superhuman eXert.on he craWled
from the cab, dragged himself through
the ditch. climbed up the bank and fell
exhausted, where trainmen came to hrs
assistance. Brady is painfully scalded.
His limbs sustained severe cOntuslons
and a large fragment of wood pene-
trated his thigh. Brady was brought to
his home in East Grand Forks by a
train made up here to transfer passen-
gers at the wreck. TelcscOped cars are

READY TO MOVE.
Kaw Valley People Warned by
Past Experience.

KANSAS CITY, May 1S.-FrOm present
appearances it would appear that the
floods of last week are about to be
repeated. Heavy rains in this immedi-
ate viciuity and in Missouri and
Kansas have caused a considerable rise
in the Missouri and Kaw rivers and 1T
is probable that the rivers at this point
and inst across the state line will con-
tinue to rise for the next day or two, for
the present high stage is due to local
rains only. During the twenty-four
hours prior to Z o'clock this evening
the Missouri river here rose 1.35 feet,
and now registers 26.45 feet. This is
only 1.lO foot lower than the high water
mark of last Sunday.
People in the lowlandS on both sides
of the river seem to fear a repetition OF
their recent experiences, aud are get
ting matters in order to move to higher
ground at moments notice. Dis
patches from points up the river report
a rise and the consequent flooding of
growing crops which escaped the re.
cent floods. The damage is moi
stated, bat will be large. The Kaw
! river is also rising. 1t has risen one
foot during the past twenty-four hours,
and people living along its course LOOK
for continuation of the tleod.5 Heavy
winds are reported throughout the cen
tral and northeastern parts of Kansas.
and a big rise is looked for. At Law.
renee the Kaw lacks only few inches
of being as high as it was last week and
is still rising.
The river at Armourdale has risen
about fourteen inches and the sewers
in the town are pouring into the streets
at very rapid rate and flooding many
houses Many people who were forced
to leave their ZONES last week and had
returned and begun Scrubbing the mud
from the floors and walls of theiI
houses, were forced to flee second
time.
However, the damage. both from q
pecuniary and an hygienic standpoint
will not be so great as last week. as the
proper officials had some of the sewers
plugged up. and flood gates were put in
| at the sewer outlets today. Many OF
| ArmOurdale's manufacturers have been
/ damaged bv the flood on account of de-
| fective sewers. The same condition OF
affairs applies in general sense to Ar
gentine.
Summed up, the situation is about
| this: Both rivers will probably reacE
| as high mark as they did last week
but the additional damage caused viii
| not be great, both because the people
| are prepared for second food and ho1
very much more damage can be done tt

to be much greater than is now antlcl

Proof That It Is Not a Blanket
Formation.

Formation
Special to the Globe. l%ii
DULUTH. Mimi, May Isl. NJ. Long
year, the we'll known Marquette iron
man, has made. very valuable geolog-
ical discovery on the Mesaba range,
which Will open the eyes Of people
who have tried to east a
slur upon the range on the ground
that it is a blanket formation.
He has proved beyond a doubt that it is
not any such thing. He sunk diamond
drill on lot s, section 6, town 5S, range
Is, east of the town of Merritt, a depth
of 400 feet, and his labors were re-,
warded by striking ore at that depth.
This demonstrates beyond doubt that
the formation is the same as that OF the
Gogebic, except that there is pitch of
from u to 20 degrees only to the ore
body, instead of 90 degrees, as
OIL the Gogebic. Mr.. Longyear
went mile south. of the loot
wall OF green shist. He has already
gone fifty-six feet into the ore, which is
of an excellent quality. ibis shows
that the deposit on the Mesaba range is
continuous, and its extent cannot be
guessed at. This is by far the most sig
nificant discovery yet made on the
Mesaba range. OF course, the farther
south you go. necesstating, as it does,
a deeper surface covering. the cost of
mining will increase materially.

Washouts Is Feared.

The Omaha-Sioux City express, which
leaves the city at 7:55 every evening,

deemed it unsafe to permit any traffic
on the division west of st. James, Mimi.
The floods have done considerable dam
age to the roadbed, and portion of

The Omaha company's loss from the
food will be enormous, and the other
roads are said to be suffering nearly as
much, the heavy rains having caused
