FRESHETS IN FIVE STATES.
Ohio, Pennsylvania, Indiana, Illinois ant
West Virginia Suffer.

west virginia Suuer.
Five States are suffering from severe
noods-ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Pennsyl-
vania, and West Virginia. Railroad
bridges have been washed out in every di-
rection, miles and miles Of railroad track
and farming lands are under water, and
many people are in danger OF their lives.
The usual spring thaws, augmented by
unusually heavy rains caused the disaster.
At Greensburg, Ind. Will Shane and Clara
Miller, who were to have been married,
were swept away while crossing q stream
and were drowned. The property loss in
and about Greensburg will reacn $500 900.
At Shelbyville the loss will be equally large.
the residence part OF the town being
flooded. Among the other Indiana towns
affected are Lebanon, Rushviile, Richmond,
Westport, st. Paul, Manchester. Wabash.
Terre Haute and Indianapolis. 1t is thought
the total loss in Indiana will reach fully
q. .000, 900.
Ohio has suffered almost as badly as In.
diana. At Dayton fully three-fourths OF
the city is inundated. The levee Of the
Great Miami broke north Of the city. and
within an hour the lower portions Of North
Dayton were submerged. Shortly after
the entire suburb was under water, and
over 1000 householders were compelled to
abandon their homes. Thousands were
rescued, though as many were compelled
to remain. The City Lighting Department
Is disabled and the entire city is In dark
ness The loss will run up into the hun
dreds Of thousands. At Columbus three
square miles Of the city Is under water, in
Guiding many manufacturing concerns
and tenement houses-a total OF over GOO
buildings. Many families had to be rescued
In boats.
The food has already destroyed property
in the State Of Ohio Of the value OF S10,-
600, 900. The loss In Indiana Is estimated
at q, ,0O0,o 600. and IN Illinois at half that
sum. Sixteen lives are reported lost.
The Muskingum, Miami and Sciotc
Rivers are over their banks and have SUBJ
merged millions Of acres OF bottom lands.
Thousand Of families are homeless and
destitute. Railroad traffic is paralyzed,
due largely to the destruction Of bridges.

China has agreed to all the Russian de-
mands granting lease OF Port Arthur and

Port Arthur and Ta-lien-Han unless China
accedes to her demands. ---.--- ~
