MISSISSIPPI FLOOD SPREADING.
THE CREVASSE AT BTGGs NEARLY
A TILE WIDE.
Worst Break That HaS OCcurred-WiII
Result in Enormous Loss to Prop
erty and Live Stock.

V1CKSBURG Miss. April 17.-An Of
ficial report at midnight says the Gre
vase at Biggs, four miles below Delta
La, IS nearly mile wide, and that the
roaring torrent is spreading over the
loWlands of Madison Parish with start
ling rapidity. This is unquestionably
the most destructive break that has oc-
CURED, and the loss to property and live
stock will be enormous. A large part of
Madison, Tensas and Concordia parishes
will be inundated, and the fine farms OF
Franklin and Catapoula parishes are in
imminent danger. The fertile lands OF
these parishes have been prepared for
this years crop, and in many instances
cultivation is we'll under way
All day long refugees have been flee
ing to this city with their stock and
other property. The water was II feet
deep against the levee when it broke,
and the men who were on the spot say
that it poured in vast circular masses or
whirlpools 20 feet high
The number of refugees in the city has
been largely increased, and they are
coming on every boat. The water
flooded the Vicksburg, Shreveport and
Pacific Railroad in a few hours. and
trains west of this place are abandoned
in consequence. The town of Delta is
overfiowed deeply, and planters say that
the water will back up to Milliken's
Bend. sixteen miles north
Three white persons, two men and a
woman, passed twelve hours in the
midst of the furious waters of the Gre
vase, perched in a tree. The water
reused them from their beds, and they
had only time to seek safety in the tree
when the mighty flood was upon them.
They made known their presence by
shouts and pistol shots during the night.
and several attempts to rescue them
were made, but it was not until 10 a. m.
when an adventurous crew from the
Government steamer Eta Etheridge
put out in a yawl and rescued them.
SITUATION AT OMAHA.
OMAHA (Neb.), April 1.-THE Mis-
souri, River here is stationary but the
fiood is still running great stream into
Cut Off Lake, which has risen six
inches since last night. The thing most
dreaded is now at hand, the first dyke
across the foot of the lake gave way
this morning. and a gap of fifty feet wide
is letting a torrent down in the basin
below the second dyke.
The water is rising rapidly. This dyke
is crossed by the railroad track. and
trainload after trainload of material
has been dumped there this morning, to
strengthen the threatened embank.
ment 1t alone now stands between the
huge flood water in Cut Off Lake and
the railroad yards and the factories be-
low.
Up to II O'Clock tonight the river had
fallen six inches since noon. The lower
dyke at Cut Off Lake still holds, and
with the work done on it to-day will
very likely withstand the strain A fall
of a foot in the river will remove the
danger that has threatened all week.

DETAILS OF THE NEZEROS BAT
LARISSA, April 17.-Details of the
fighting between Greeks and Turks at
Nezeros, just within the Greek frontier
line in Thessaly, and due south of
Mount Olympus, have been received
here.
The fighting originated, according to
the Greek reports, in an attempt upon
the part of the Turkish forces to occu-
py an abandoned post of the Greeks.
The movement was opposed by the
Greek forces, whereupon the Turks
opened fire, and sharp engagement,
lasting four hours, ensued The Greeks
eventually retreated. Their losses are
not known.
This engagement occurred yesterday.
At ; o'clock this morning heavy firing
between Turks and Greeks near NeZe-
ros was resumed. The Greeks had been
reinforced with artillery, which they
brought into play upon the Turkish
post at Kolroni. The latter was event
ually destroyed with dynamite,
1t is reported as this dispatch is sent,
that Greeks have occupied three Turk
ish stations and that the Turks are re-
treating.

Albanians stationed at Uskub, in readi-
ness to start for the Greek frontier, has
been sent in haste to Verana, on the
Mcntenegrin frontier, and another bat

ish troops toward the Montenegrin
frontier has given rise to the report
that serious danger is apprehended in
that direction.

WHEAT GOING UP.
Clean Advance of Four and One Eighth
Cents Since Thursday.

CHICAGO. April 17.-May wheat to-
day closed at 1880, clean advance of
41sc since Thursday. This advance on
a short Saturday session was attended
with much excitement, and the session
throughout was as lively a one as has
been witnessed in many months. Every
one wanted to buy wheat, but there was
little for sale. There were several rea-
sons for the sudden fright of shorts. The
immediate cause, was the report from
New York that wheat had gone up ;
cents bushel there, and at Antwerp
and Berlin about cents
NEW YORK, April 17.-There was
tremendous excitement in the wheat
market to-day. Prices advanced
cents a bushel in a little over two hours.
Dealings ran up into the millions. The
shorts were completely stampeded, and
their orders to buy flooded the market
from start to finish. War news and for
eign buying We're the factors which oc-
casioned the tumult The latter was by
far the heaviest seen in long time. No
limit was set on the execution of for
eign orders. They read, Buy wheat"
and it was bought in at any figure. Dur
ing the regular session May went from
l312c to ISc and later on the curb to

EVENTS ON THE TURF.
THREE STAKE EVENTS RUN OFF
AT OAKLAND.
Ruinart Duplicates His Performance
of Week Ago, Winning the
Palace Hotel Handicap.

SAN FRANCISCO, April 11-Three
stakes were run off at Oakland to-day
the Candelaria handicap for two-year-
olds, the Athenian Club hurdle handicap
and the Palace Hotel handicap
The latter event was the feature of
the day, all the best handicap horses
facing the barrier, including Ruinart.
the winner of the Burns handicap. The
latter, with Marty Bergen UP, easily
duplicated his performance of last Sat
urday, winning from Buckwa by an open
length. Ruinart was again an out
slider in the betting, as the wise ones
maintained that his victory in the Burns
handicap was in the nature of a fluke.
His performance to-day, however,
places him at the very top notch as he
was heavily penalized, and had against
him field of horses superior to that of
week ago. Ruinart has been entered
in numerous Eastern stakes, and will be
shipped East shortly.
The Candelaria handicap was won by
McDonough's Rosamonde, the Ormonde
filly, who has shown wonderful develop

Assault the Greek Forces at Mount AnallpslS
With Great FierceneSS.
Heavy Firing Reported Along the Whole Line Of lne
Frontier in ThGSSdlY.

LONDON. April 1.-THE Graeco-
Turkish situation is understood mere
to be substantially as follows:
War has not been officially declared
between Turkey and Greece, but it has
been declared officially to have broken
out" TIE Turkish Cabinet has de-
cided to sever diplomatic relations with
Greece, and has ordered Edhem Pasha,
tn commander of the Turkish forces,
to take the offensive.
1t is said in London that war between
Turkey and Greece has actually begun,
the Turkish declarations that war has
''broken out" being merely for the pur-
pose of automatically putting the onus
of the war upon the kingdom of Greece.
ACTION OF THE TURKISH MINIS
TRY.
CONSTANTINOPLE, April 1.-THE
Council of Ministers, after a session at
the palace to-day, declared that war
had broken out on the frontier, owing
to the incursion by the Greeks on Turk
ish territory, and Edhem Pasha, the
Turkish military commander, was or
dered to assume the offensive.
The announcement of an actual exist
ence of a state of war on the frontier
was at first misunderstood, reports that
the Council of Ministers had declared
var upon Greece being widely circu-
) ated.
1t was also reported that the Council
of Ministers had decided to recall ASSN
Bey, the Turkish Minister at Athens,
and given passports to Prince Mauro-
cordato, the Greek Minister at Con-
stantinople. These reports of sever
ance of all diplomatic relations between
Turkey and Greece have been denied.
The situation is summed up in a de-
tailed circular sent this evening to the
L uThlSn representatives dDTOdu. MS
circular recalls the weeks invasion of
Turkish territory, and states that the
last incursion was participated in by
the Greek troops. thereby establishing
war. The circular expresses the hope
that the Powers, in a spirit of justice,
Will agree that the entire responsible
ity for the war falls on Greece. Turkey
has no idea of conquest, the circular
adds. AS a fresh proof of pacific SEN
timents. the Sublime Porte offers to
retire the Turkish troops on the from
the frontier and Crete.

The Duke of Devonshire referred to
the astonishing cutting of prices by
American competition, and expressed a
hope that the Americans might be sat
isfied to confine most of their fighting
to their own country.
This caused the Times to remark
THE American iron trade does not

Continuing, the Times" refers to the

says the work thus produced is almost
incredible, adding, as significant
feature of the situation, the statement
that the recent plants built in England

while the Duke of Devonshire, the
Times" continuing, practically ad-
mitted American superiority, he did
not mention the most wonderful thing,

M. Leroy Beulieu, the French econo-
mist, writing to the journal des De-
bats" says he considers Japans adop-
ton of the gold standard to be the most
complete refutation of the bimetallic
theory that a deprecated monetary
standard gives to country an advan-
tage in international trade He adds:
"A country adopting silver would shut
