ST. Louis. March Sat midnight
last night the rain, which had fallen
steadily for Sc hours. suddenly became
of cloudburst proportions and all the
Iow-Iving parts of the. city were soon
under water
The river Dec Peres, which drains
the city's western suburbs, overlooked
it's banks. and the villages of Chelten-
ham. Clifton. Howard, Benton, Ellen
dale and Edgewood were waterbound
The track of the Frisco Valley was
covered. The river Dec Peres, ordi-
nariIy Is inches deep. was u feet deep
and A mile wide But one railway
track-the Missouri Pacific-was above
water.
A foot bridge at the Subleto. avenue
crossing was carried away and two
men were drowned. People living in
the flooded district took refuge in the
tops of their houses. The police and
volunteers brought boats and took
them to high ground. This work went
on till daylight. when the water re-

hours On the other side of the Mis-
sissippi river the flood did great dam
age, principally to railroads
The Vandalia and Baltimore & Ohio
are the most serious sufferers.
Canteen creek, near the Bluffs, grew
to the proportions of lake near Col
linsville and Caseyville. Serious WASH
outs at these points caused the aban-
donment of all trains on the Vandaiia
and Baltimore & Ohio There are two
breaks ON the Vandalia road near Col
linsville 200 yards wide. and the water
is rushing under the track in torrents.
The loss to farmers in the American
bottoms and south to the Chester
Bluffs will be very heavy.
