FLOOD SITUATION GROWING WORSE

Mobile. Ala, April 23,-The food
situation around Mobile shows a
more desperate condition to-day and
every hour the loss is growing great
er. The Louisville & Nashville Rail
road, which has heretorfore been free
from any damage and has been haul
ing the freight and passengers OF the
Illinois Central, Northeastern and
Mobile 4 Ohio railroads for the pas
six days, is now a sufferer also. The
bridge over West PascagOula River,
four miles from Scranton, was wash
ed away last night.
Between 300 and 400 feet OF Mobile
& Ohio track has been entirely wash
ed away at one place, and where the
roadbed was there is a gully five feet
deep. The damage is incalculabe.
Nearly all the roadbed for twenty five
miles will have to be reconstructed.

FLOODS DIRE WORK.
The Private Property Losses
Will Reach S3,OOO,OOO.
Many Farm Houses Swept Away by
the Rushing Waters.

New Orleans, April 2O.-The food
which commenced the early part of
the week has already caused, at a
conservative estimate, fully $4,000
900 loss in Central and Southern Mis-
sippi, to say nothing OF the damages
sustained by the rail roads.
\ special from Columbia, Miss.
which was received late last night,
fixes the losses in that little town and
its immediate vicinity at $500, 900.
Many farm houses were carried away
by the mad waters, and occupants
barely escaping with their lives, and
the number of cattle destroyed was
great. A great many gins and mill
houses were washed away, and many
sawmlls saw their lumber piles melt
as if by magic. Nearly every bridge
anywhere around Columbia was
swept down stream.
Pearl river is now higher than it
has been known for many years
Miles and miles of the New Orleans
and Northeastern track are still un-
der water. Honey Island, the rem
devious of the noted train rObber,
Burch, is 20 feet under water, and
the island, which has for years been
one of the natural game preserves of
the south, is now devoid of wild ami
mails. Hundreds of deer were drown
ed.
A summary of the food situation
at Enterprise, Miss, has just been
received. Although from time to
time details of the damage wrought
there have been obtained the appall-
ing loss caused by the waters and the
terrible hardships which have been
undergone by the people living i'll the
little town and the territory adjacent
has never been understood. Men and
women have been rOosting in trees
for hours at a time waiting for the
rescuing parties, which have been do
ing noble service all the week. At
least a score of houses were swept
away and their occupants had the
narrowest kind of escapes. The finan-
cial end of the story is a sad one.
The merchants have. many OF them,
seen their places of business wiped
out, and there is not an establish
ment or a home in the town which
has not suffered to a greater or less
extent. One farmer alone lost s., 900
worth of blOoded cattle. The crops
for an area of many miles have been
utterly destroyed.
