Mississippi's fisod Causes More Breaks
In the Delta LeVres.
Memphis. April 5.--Another disastrous
break in the Mississippi levee has
occurred at Flower Lake six miles be-
low Tunica, Miss. The crevasse. which
is not yet OF great width. is fully Is feet
deep, and the water is pouring through
the opening with fearful velocity. This
probably will be the most destructive
break that has occurred In the delta.

northern portion Of the state viii be IN

crops will be laid waste. Fortunately
no less of life is reported, the inhabit-
ants OF this stricken section having
made preparations FOR just such ga
tastrophe as now exists. The condi-
tion Of the poorer classes throughout
the flooded area is indeed critical Thou
sands OF refugees are being huddled in
levees and spots Of land waiting for re-
lief
The towns of Rosedaie and Tunica
report that everything possible is being
done for these poor people but that
funds and provisions are fast becoming
exhausted. In the little city of Rose
dale alone 200 refugees are being
cared for By the citizens Half hum
dred towns now stand in six feet of
water, and the yellow stream is creep
ing up slowly but surely.
Advices just received tell OF q break
in the levee 10 miles south OF Helena,
Ark. This is the leyee for which Jhe
people Of southeastern Arkansas have
made such a desperate fight. The WA
ters from this break will food a great
area and in all probability Will back
up into the streets of Helena.
The relief steamer Ora Lee has ar
rived at Mariana, Ark. having made
an expedition up the st. Francis river.
There were on board 100 refugees and
200 head of cattle The steamer went
up the st. Francis river as far as CUT

stream. rescuing people from perilous
positions
The suffering along the st. Francis
river is appalling. The water through
out the entire neighboring country is

had on board the body Of Mrs McMain

Raggio and it was taken to Mariana
