Shortly before noon the torrent sue
ceeded in undermining a score of

the corner Of East Madison and Wood

tossed about in the waters. Fully a

Rescued by Life-savers.

The torrent surged with awful
force for hours in Deering street
from Paramount to the boulevard,
penned in like rats in trap with
water five and six feet deep surround-
ing their homes. At this point the
life saving crew worked valiantly,
and, assisted by squads of frernen
and policemen, finally succeeded in
landing the terror-stricken people in
places of safety The fear was great
ly enhanced by the momentary ex-
pectation that the great Shaker
Heights dam would break loose and
belch forth terrible destruction.

Damage to Parks and boulevard.

Damage to Parks and Boulevard.
B The great flood boiled over the banks
of Doan brook all along the boulevard
and caused damage that it will take
months to repair. Great Jagged holes
are torn in the beautiful driveway, and
the look of ruin, stretches in every di.
rection. Gordon and Wade parks, on
the East side, and Brookside park, on
the South side, where the water also
did great damage as it leaped over the
banks of Big creek, are damaged to an
amount figured at 100000. Through
Glenville the overflow was terribly de.
structive. Many houses are swamped.
culyerts torn out and several streets
turned into seething quagmires. The

100000.

The street railways will suffer an
immense loss, extending in varying de.

The Big Consolidated will have to re.
build their tracks over differentparts
of the inundated East end district, and
the loss is placed at $4,000. The Su.
perior street trestle of the Little Con
solidated is practically ruined, and
this, with other serious damage in the
lines of the company extending way
over in the West side, will run their
loss way into the thousands. The Of

breaking of dawn Sunday morning
the citizens of Cleveland awoke to
look upon scene of unparalleled
devas station and destruction caused
by raging flood. While the entire
city was more or less affected, the
great volume of raging water vented
its anger over miles of the eastern
portion Of the city and caused an
amount OF damage approxmated at
$1,O00,000. The appalling overflow was
caused by terrific rain that COM
menced to fall shortly after two
o'clock, turned into perfect cloud
burst between the hours of three
and five, and then continued with
great force until nearly ten o'clock.
The storm, according to the weather
officials, was the heaviest that ever
swept over Cleveland since the estab-
lishment of the government bureau
in this city over 40 years ago.
No Loss of Life.
That no lives were lost is nothing
short of miracle, as the stories Of
thrilling escapes from the water on
several Of the principal resident
streets of the city are told The
surging waters spread over an area in
the east end nearly eight miles long
and ~ miles wide. This extended
from Woodland Hills avenue to East
Cleveland and back to East Madison
avenue Great volumes of water
poured over from Doan and Giddings
brooks down Quincy street, swamped
Vienna street, rushed over Cedar ave-
nue., back over on East Prospect
street, rushed like mill race down
Lincoln avenue to Euclid avenue, and
then on to Glen Park place, where
houses were undermined as though
built of straw, and almost incredible
damage done to streets and property.
swept Everything Before 1t.
Over large share of this exclu-
sive residence territory the water
rushed with terrific force, varying in
depth from one to six feet. Culverts,
trestles and bridges were torn down
and for hours nothing seemed ca
pable of stemming the tide of de-
struction. Hundreds of residents who
were imprisoned in their beautiful
homes like stranded islanders were
almost panic-stricken, expecting to
be called upon to wade out into the
swirling waters at almost every
minute. Danger signals were flashed
about the city as speedily as the dis
abled telephone system would allow
and the work of rescue commenced.
Rowboats piled back and forth as
sisting whole families from perilous
positions, but these proved pitifully
inadequate, and it was soon. found
necessary to go to the extraordinary
precaution of calling on the life saw
ing crew from the river, distance
of seven miles. The life boats were
quickly loaded on wagons and hur-
ried to the scene of destruction.

! Washington, March 29.--It is stated
 on excellent Russian authority that the Manchurian convention has from the 1 first been regarded simply as a modus vivendi. It was this phase of the sub | ject which Count Cassini brought to | the attention of Secretary Hay yester- 1 day, and simultaneously it appears to have been impressed upon the minds of the British officials, as Lord Lans- ! downe announced to the l House of
 Lords that the convention, viewed as 1nodus vivendi might not present the objections heretofore held against it.
 The Russian authorities at Washing ton have all along construed the con- vention as modus vivendi, although Count Cassini has now made it palmer to Secretary Hay. It is explained that
 the term modus vivendi, as applying to the present convention, means that ab-
 normal conditions have arisen in Man churia, and that normal conditions can
 best be restored by this means. It's
 chief purpose, it is explained, would be
 to provide for the evacuation of Man
 churia by the Russian troops, as their
 presence there is part of the abnormal
 condition brought about by the disturb
 ances. But. with these forces with
 drawn, Russia expects that assurances
 will be given that quiet will be main- tained and that the former normal con- dition will be, in fact restored. When the old state of things is, thus restored it is the Russian view that the modus vivendi will cease to operate, as it's pur- pose will have been secured It is said that the integrity of China will be com- pletely preserved, and that nothing in the nature of Russian proteetorate or suzerainty will exist.
 Neither the Russian ambassador nor the Chinese minister has received any word as to the final action on the con vention. Minister Wu was at the state from three-days' visit to New York He is without advices, however, since the last dispatch from the southern viceroys expressing the hope that the United States will induce Russia not to press the convention.
 In some diplomatic quarters it is 1 pointed out that the term "modus vi- vendf' implies that Russia has certain distinct territorial rights in Manchuria, | and that it in no way mitigates the | character of the convention.

STRUCK BY A TROLLEY CAR.

Stoker Smith, of Engine No. 8, Injured
 on Chapel Street.
 Stoker Frederick Smith, of No. en- zine company, yesterday afternoon met with painful accident on Chapel street near the corner of Orange street. MT. Smith was riding a bicycle and was crossing the car tracks, when a trolley car struck his wheel. He was thrown heavily to the pavement, but fortunate ly escaped going under the car. He was considerably bruised and his right shoulder was badly wrenched, He was so much bruised and shaken up that he was unable to go on duty at No S's house last night. While his injuries are not serious, yet they are such that he will probably be laid up for few days.

JAPAN'S wARLIKE PLANS.

Said to be Preparing to Increase Forces
 in China.
 Tokio, March 29.-The newspapers here say it is proposed to relieve the Japanese troops in the Chinese province of Pe-Chi-Li by a force 50 per cent. stronger.
 Although May is the usual month in which the relief of the force at Seoul takes place, the relief of the troops there will take place immediately. Three officers of the headquarters staff will also proceed to Korea.
 These movements, with the unusual activity at the arsenals. are taken to point to the adoption of a strong policy by Japan.

STATUS OF MANcHUR1A TREATY

Report from St. Petersburg That Sign
 ing Has Been Delayed.
 St. Petersburg, March 29.-It is prob- able that the Russo Chinese Manchuri- an treaty will not be signed before Mon day or Tuesday at the earliest. The de- lay is due to the dilatoriness of the Chi nese government or to the natural ditfi- culties of communication between the Chinese court. Pekin, and St. Peters burg.
 It is not believed that the indisposi- tion of YangYu the Chinese minister at St. Petersburg, will prevent him from going to the foreign office when invited to do so.
