broken through the levees and spread
out into q vast lake reaching clear
across to Madison in an unbrohen

under water and the only railroad that
Is running Is the Iron Mountain. The
ovcrflowed district, rs 1t stands ut pres
ent, extends from so miles below Men,
ph,s to Point Pleasant, 100 miles above
the Bluff City. The average width is
probably so miles and the average
depth, except in the bed Of the river,
is from three to seven feet. There will
be no early crop from that region this
year. This will constitute the heaviest
part of the flood losses think. As we
came up noticed breaks In the levec

Cashier Breeder, OF the bethlehem Ma
tionai Bank, Short About $4,000.
BETHLEHEM, Pa, March 24.-Discov.
cries just made add SO, 900 to the en-
bezzlement of Cyrus E. BREEDER, cashier
of the First national bank of this city,
who disappeared few weeks ago,
leaving shortage estimated at the
time Of $4,000. He also stole $4,000
from building association. His bonds
man died and his bond was not re.
newed, so that the bank had to make
good the shortage of $4,000. BREEDER
is said to be in Denver, and 1t is likely
that steps will be taken to have him
brought here on charges of forgery.
An examination of the books show
that he began his stealings six months
after he became cashier. A letter
from BREEDER threatens to expose GER
tain unnamed citizens of Bethlehem,
who assisted him In his populations.

opinion prevails here that the blockade
Of the island Of Crete by the fleets of
foreign powers which commenced yes

Col. Vassos, commander Of the Greek
army Of occupation, is well supplied
with provisions. 1t is now thought
the best means to accomplish the with
drawal of the Greek troops from Crete
would be to withdraw the Turkish
