viii all be saved unless the water
rises more. The financial damage is
about as great now as 1t is likely to
become, unless the water rises much
higher. The great danger is that the
foundations of buildings may be un-

that have withstood the flood have an
excellent chance of holding out for
some time.

city beyond that sustained by the peo-
pie driven from their homes. Excel
