Rains Will Do Harm.

I'VE heard in Genoa that there had
been floods in Bombay. Rains now
would be worse than the famine, for
they would cause the grass and weeds
to spring up. The natives would seize
upon this growth as soon as it appeared
above the ground and boil and eat the
mess. Being in such a famished state
this would have a very disastrous eff
feet upon them. There is plenty of
grain in the country, if the government
would only put a little pressure upon
the greedy merchants"
Fifteen thousand dollars were re-
ceived today from the Kansas India
famine relief committee and cabled to
the interdenOminatiOnal missionary
committee at Bombay.
