CINCINNATI, Feb. 2O-The Ohio river
continues to rise and the flood has now
created real alarm. Trade and traffic
are intcrfered with. Newport is already
suffering in the lower streets.
Mill cree k is flooded almost to the top
of it's banks and the water has crcpt into
some cellars on the upper sides of Front

Chesapeake aud Ohio trains were the
only ones running into the Grand Cen.
trail depot. The Cincinnati SOuth hern is
making it's depot at Mclean avenue and
the Ohio and Mississippi at Mill street.
The Big Four and Chesapeake and Ohio
trains running like boats through a
foot of water at the foot of Smith and
other streets. Switchmen, clad in rub
ber boots are working in the water up
to their knees. The depot master at the
Grann Central depot said: "NO trains
can come into the depot at stage OF
So feet in the river. At So feet the water
will cover the end of the PLATFORM. but it
will take foot or two more to bring 1t

The general opinion expressed by river
men is that the water will reach 30 or
sc feet. The indications above threaten

showed that Fredericks, Carver aSnd Hearst,
as soon as they were made members of the
train robbery gang. each informed the au-

kept them fully advised as to the progress
of the robbers plans. The evidence also
showed tn at the robbers were shot down in

PELLIGRISI CAPTURED.
The Ex-Pr esident of the Argentine Republic
IN the Hands of the Rebels.

The Ex-Pr esident of the Are Gentine Republic
IN the Hands of the Rebels.
BUENos AYREs, Sept. 26.-Ex-President
Pelligrini. who was recently captured by
the insurgents. and who came near being
shot. has again been taken prisoner and Is
imprisoned in Tucuman by order of the in
surgent junta. 1t is said that he Will be
tried and executed.
The announcements b at OK President Pei
lgrni had been captured caused an almost
Unprecedented sensation here. Only few
days ago tho ex-President left here colors
flying and drums beating. at the head of
LOCO men. with the announced Intention of
crushlD the rebellion in the provIce of
Tucuman. But no had hardly got his
troops out of this city when the rebels
blew up bridge across his path and thus
cut him OF from reaching Tncuman. Moth
lng daunted. the ex-President pushed on
ward. reached the bridge, engaged the en-
emy there, drove them away after sharp
skirmish. erected the bridge and pushed
onward to Tucuman. On Monday the ex-
PRESIDENT his forces increased to about
three thousand men. reached Tucuman and
teleQ raphed back that he expected the
rebels TO surrender. Tho ex-President
knew that his defeat probably mea mt death
to him. as having previously been captured
by the rebels and held for twelve hours q
prisoner In a railroad car while his oaptOrs
telegraphed TO their leaders for permission
TO shoot him on the spot. his recapture
meant quick trial and aquicker exeeu-
tion. Thus. the capture of Pelligrini b as.
ii may be said. brought the revolution al
most TO close. for inc was the chief sup-
porter and manstay OF President Pena,
who. it is claimed. was little more than a
puppet in his hands. But. coupled with
the information that ex-President Pelli-
griDi Is n prisoner and in danger of death
Is the news that the insurgents have so
much confidence In the success of their
cause that they have already organized q
provisional government and have received
assurances of support from many SOURCES.
For this reason it is believed that tho
capture of Pelligrini will do more to end
the rebellion and cause the downfall OF
President Pena than n bloody defeat of the
whole government forces would have done.
Then. again. the navy ia said to be siding
with the insurgents. and 1t is expected here
