Rain mt Kieff, Russia.

Kieff, European Russia, July 21.-
Fifteen persons were drowned, Sun
day, by a sudden thrush of water into
the Easements of various houses in

turned the streets into yeritable tor
rents, flooding cellars and drowning
their occupants before they were
able TO escape. Large trees were up
rooted and railroad embankments
were washed away, necessitating the
suspension of traffic. The losses sus-
tanned are very heavy.
