New ORLEANS, May 10.--The Morganza
levee has broken. This is the most i'm
portant levee of the Mississippi river, and,
in fact. is the largest in the world. II is
the key levee TO the whole State. IL is
situated near Point Coupe. in the very
centre of Louisiana. It's break is an awful
calamity. for its situation is such that it
is utterly impossible to close any breach.
The river is tremendously high for the
past week Constant watch night and
day has been kept on the weakest levees.
The Morganza was the strongest of
them all. The river sweeps against il
round bend with terrific force. With
the break the tremendous volume of
water will pour into the country from the
river to the Gulf.
The damage will be enormous, and in
the neighborhood Of eight or nine mill
ions of dollars. The Teche country, the
best sugar lands in the South, will be ut
terly destroyed.
Thirteen parishes will suffer and there
can be no crops this year. The greatest
excitement is prevalent in the city.

New YORK. May 10.-Dr. William Tod
Helmuth was summoned last night to

down on the witness stand yesterday
while testifying at the trial of Marie
Andreas. the alleged dive keeper. This
is what he said about his patient: "The
young man has undergone severe ordeal.
prostration."
"Is he at all irrational Z"
Not at all His nerves, not his mind,
are affected. Absolute rest and quiet
will be necessary"
DIR. Helmuth was with young Erving
several hours last night. When he left
his patient was quiescent.
To-day, IL the patient is sufficiently
calm and strong, he was TO be taken to
his fathers residence in Rye, N, Y.
DIR. Parkhurst said: "When Erving was
here he seemed TO be in a condition bor-
dering on collapse. No, not physical nor
mental, but nervous. His mind was quite
clear when he reached nv house. He needs
repose, and am sure he will soon re-
cover"
Being compelled to testify in the Hat
tie Adams cases made Erving suffer
much. And the knowledge that he would
again have 10 appear in court and tell of
acts SO disgusting and degrading that
they are almost unbelievable so preyed
upon his mind that for a week he has
been unable to eat or sleep.
To-day DIR. Parkhurst himself went
upon the stand. DIR. Parkhurst says of
tie Adams that Da Costa's sentiments are
well enough in their place, but that he
mistakes utterly the objects of the Vice

Objection to the Estimate Of Several
Cities and Towns.

Objection to the Estimate Of Several
Cities and Towns.
The Senate committee on finance gave
hearing on the 'Revaluation Bill" to-
day on the rising of the Senate. The
committee called the cities and towns in
the order in which they are set down in
the table Of the report.
Senator Walter w. Whipple and Mr..
Hall, one OF the assessors of North Provi-
dence, appeared for that town, claiming
that the valuation was nearly three
quarters Of a million dollars more than is
the valuation.
For Burrillville Senator Bartlett intro
duccdE Francis NJ. Wood, Edwin l..
Tucker, former assessor; Joseph II. Car
penter, o. A. Inman, who has been an
assessor for thirty years, and Town Soil
citor Stone. The remarks of all the
gentlemen were to the effect that the
actual value of the property of the town
had decreased, as six mills have been de-
stroyed, only one rebuilt and small addi-
tions on two others built Much timber
has been cut Off, and there is apparently
no doubt that Burrillvile Is poorer to-day
than at the last valuation.
For Newport, Judge Baker, Charles
Acton Ives, Francis Peckham aud others
appeared, and the substance OF their ar
guments against that part of the report
which affected Newport, was that the VAL
uation was abyut SIG, 0O0, 900 too high, and
the reason for this was that much
of the property had been valued
In the same ratio as the property that
stretched to the beach and also from the
fact that the commission did not do their
work carefully but spent most of their
time riding about the city In a carriage.
