AN AWFUL FLOOD

Caused by the bursting Of the UTbRnh RE.
orvolr-RushIng Water Down the Valley
Sweeping Everything Before It-JOhnS.
town Flood oil u small Scale.
URBASA, Ono, May S.-The greatest
calamity that ever came to the people
in Logan and Hardin counties was that
OF last night when the Lewistown reser-
voir broke and turned an immense flood
OF water upon the residents in its course,
The break was In the northeast eornor
of the reservoir, where a wasteway sixty.
two feet IN length is located.
a break 200 feet wide occurred and
the water came rushing down In flood
ten feet deep and three miles wide, com.
pletOly submerging the country around
and carrying everything in Its way.
The big covered bridge, $50 feet in
length, was swung completely round
and then torn loose and swept away.
In tho course Of the flood stood the
houses OF jack Smith and Wm, Devault,
and q largo number Of tOn0ments,
houses and aQuatters and bachelors
homes. All OF these arc submerged,
though fortunately everybody managed
to escape from tho danger. People fled
in terror from their homes, while the
swift and rushing flood came on down
tho valley taking everything before 1t.
Tho frat town along the course Of the
flood Ia Port Jefferson, where tho dam
throws tho water into the Miami canal.
A portion OF the town is very low, and
it was badly flooieu. Quincy, Logans.
vile, DegtatF, Piqua, Troy and DaytoR
arc also in the course Of tho flood.
Tho artificial bank OF tho reservoir Is
five miles around and most OF tho way
fully twenty feet above the land, and
the bottom OF the reservoir itself Is at
least ten feet above tho immediate
country below. Tho water averaged
ten feet deep over tho whole reservoir, so
some idea can bo imagined OF tho great
volume that came rushing down on tho
country below.
The Lewiston reservoir Is located five
miles northeast OF Huntsville, Logan
county, and contains 1900 acres. Hun.
dreds Of families loft their homes and
fled out Of tho reach Of tho coming tor.
rent.
So far no loss Of life is reported, but
when the floods subsidc 1t will likely be
revealed that more than ono unfortun.
ate perished. The damage to property
in Logan county alono is estimated at
$4,000 Many farmers will lose every.
thing but their land and they will be
financially ruined.
The latest reports tonight from tho
scene Of the flood are rcassuring and 1t
is believed that such progress has been
made as will prevent further opening at
tho present places, but the entire lower
banks arc saturated and in a very dan.
gerous condition. Should further rains
fall no human power can stay an awful
catastrophe.
TeIegrams have been sent TO the
authorities at all threatened points to
prepare for the worst rs we'll as they
can and to hope for tho best.
The Lewiston reservoir Is said 70 be
the second largest artificial body OF
water in the world.
