WAITING AND WATCHING.
Ct Louis Preparing for the Big Head Of
Water Expected to Reach There
From Above.

st. Louis, June 3.-The Mississippi
river is still on the rise, and all along
the river front the people are prepar-
ing for the big food which is expect
ed Friday-before that time If the
rains continue. The rise has been two
feet in "a hours.
Traffic north and west is interfered
with on account of the railroad tracks
being either washed out or under wa
ter.
The river is now rising at the rate
of about one-half an inch an hour, so
fast that il can be observed by those
standing ON the banks. Driftwood is
coming down the river in great guam
titles, and the men employed by the
different shipping companies are kept
busy in keeping it away from the
wharfboats, which would be torn
from their mornings if it was allowed
to accumulate.
Reports were received at st. Charles
Tuesday morning of the drowning OF
Mrs. William Schmidt and her two
small children in an attempt to escape
on a flatboat from Catfish island, in
the Missouri river, seven miles south
west of St. Charles.
Schmidt and his family of four were
compelled to abandon their home on
the island early Tuesday morning, and
loaded part of their household goods
on the small boat on which they de-
pended for safety. In midstream the
craft capsized, and Schmidt was able
to save only one of his children.
Two miles east of St. Charles 80
head of cattle are on small island.
Eight families in the bottom close
~ adjoining st. Charles have aban-
doned their homes in the last "a
hours, seeking shelter with neighbors
living on higher ground. Fields OF
wheat are entirely under water.
The river at St. Charles rose seven
inches Tuesday morning, and at noon
was within 20 inches of the high water
mark of 1892.
At the confluence of the Missouri
and Mississippi the water has over
flowed the St. Louis county bottoms,
the Illinois shore and Mobile island
and others belonging to st. Charles
county, Mo.
No signs of life are visible on the
shores.

BURLINGTON TRAIN MISSING.
superintendent Receives Orders to
Find and Remove Passengers
mt All Hazard or Cost.

Kansas City, Mo-, June 4.-The
Journal to-day says: Chicago, Bur-
lington & Quincy passenger train No.
3, from Chicago to Kansas City, due
here at four o'clock Sunday afternoon,
has been lost track of. 1t is not
deemed possible nor is the thought en-
tertained by the railroad officials that
the train ran into the food. Never
theless General Agent Harmon was
notified Tuesday from the Chicago
general Office of the extraordinary oc-
currence, and Superintendent Mulhern
was requested to exert every possible
effort to locate the missing train and
remove its passengers at all cost or
hazard. The tug John Lentz was
chartered, and voyage made down
the Missouri river to Birmingham.
Nothing was to be seen from there.
The men have been started on horses
to Liberty, with orders to keep az
close as possible to the track and to
carefully investigate what is known
to be a great washout two miles east
Of Birmingham.

An Embankment Thirty-Five Miles
Long Is In Danger.
Hannibal, Mo-, June 3.-This city
ana adjacent country is suffering
from one Of the worst floods in it's
history. The Mississippi, which has
been coming up fast for the past
several days, rose, Tuesday, at the
rate of ~ inches an hour, and Tues
day night the guage registered 10
feet and / inch, a rise of 2h and a
half in "a hours. This is six feet
above the danger line, and conditions
were never worse in this locality.
Thousands of acres of fertile farm
lands in this vicinity are devastated,
causing a loss estimated at not less
than 100000.
The Burlington railroad suspended
traffic over it's Missouri tracks, be-
tween here and Quincy, ILL.,, as the wa
ter now stands over the roadbed to
depth of six feet. Trains are running
over the Illinois lines. Across the
river from Hannibal, the town or
Shepherd, ILL.,, is without a resident,
as all have been driven away by the
food.
The sny levee, which protects 1907
600 acres of Illinois farm lands, is IN
danger. This leyee is IS miles long,
and guard is being kept over it night
and day, and the levee commissioners
are making every effort to prevent II
from breaking.
In Hannibal the yards Of the Bur-
lington, Wabash, Missouri, Kansas d
Texas railroads are inundated, and
traffic is. only carried on with diffi-
cu,ty. All trains are running far be-
hind time. The railroads will be the
heaviest losers by the floods.

The waters of the Kaw river fell
eight inches Tuesday, and are steadily
declining at the rate of about one
and q half inches an hour. In tht
Missouri the high stage Of IS feet !!
still maintained, but this is due tc
the rise which has been coming down
the Missouri proper, and has been
able to offset the fall in the Kaw. II

however, that has caused all the dam
age in this city and in Kansas City
Kas., and with it at a normal stage

serious shortage in food, has faced
the peril of fire utterly helpless to
avert its consequences, has suffered
millions of dollars damage to proper.

will in all probability never be &C.

better things. The gas has beer
turned into the mains once more
and while there is no superabundanct
of food, there is no immediate danger
of serious shortage.
Two men lost their lives Tuesday
while endeavoring to save others. Jo-
seph L. keenan, was drowned while
endeavoring to rescue some people
from the Adams house in Union ave.
nue., across from the Union depot,
and Edward Brooks lost his life in
Liberty street, where his skitf was
overturned by an eddy while he was
endeavoring to get another man out
of building. A number of bodies
were seen floating down the stream
but are believed to be those of peo
pie drowned further up the Kaw
probably at North Topeka.
Fully fifty people were brought tt
the Twelfth street viaduct during the
day by the boatmen. None of then
had been in great danger, but hat
remained in buildings until weary OF
confinement and had then signalleo
for assistance, which was given AZ
rapidly as possible.
Much mental discomfort exists be
cause of the separation of members
of families who had barely time to es
cape from the food.

FOR BIG REVOLVER MATCHES.
Experts Of America and France Agree
Upon Contestants.

Conditions for international revolver
matches by cable have been agreed
upon by the United States Revolver
association and the National Shooting
society of France, and as a result the
contest, will Ne held June 81, 20 or 80.
The question Of date is the only mat
ter remaining unsettled. The French
experts desire that the limit for the
barrel be 1914 inches and the weight
Of arm 2 So pounds. This was &C.
cepted by the Americans, most of
whom, however, will use the regula-
ton inch barrel and the other barrels
varying up to 8 inches. There will be
Is men and three substitutes on each
team. Each of the Is will use the 10
standard American targets of six shots
each at distance Of so yards.
