c,r LOFTS MO, Sept 5.A special TO
the Chronicle from Piedras Negras, Mex

almost complete destruction OF the towns
of Rodriguez and Abastore, on me sail
do river. Both places were wiped out
of existence by cloudburst when oc-
Cured i'm the San Bias mountains back or
the towns. The water rushed down III
the valley, in a tremendous torrent
sweeping everything before II.
The flood was from six to nine miles
wide. The business houses and resi-
dences of the two towns were built OF
adobe ana they melted away before the
torrent of water.
The town OF Abastore. had population
of 800 people The inhabitants saw the
torrent coming down the valley In time
10 make their escape to the adjoining
hills. SO far as known there was no
lives lost in that place. although not
more than - houses are left standing.
Every house in the town of Rodriguez,
which has a population OF 200, was wash
ed away, but no lives were lost 1t is
feared that there was great destruction
OF property and lives lost further down
the valley. as that portion was thlckly
settled.
1t IS known that all the buildings on
tine Hacienda OF Jose Ross were caught
ia the food and washed away, the
loss of his property amounting to about
$4,000.
