HIGH WATER.

The flood situation is anything but
encouraging. Last Monday, the levee
broke at Trlces, a point twelve miles
ABOVE Memphis, and so rapid was the
current that by Tuesday night the
rushing waters destroyed a trestle at
point eight miles from Memphis, ne
cesstating the abandonment of train
service on the Choctaw.
The trains iun now as for as Whit
more. This morning the report is
that the yellow water has reached
Cica'la, a station fifteen miles from
st. Francis river. The St. Francis
river still has some banks. and as YET
the water is clear, indicating that the
flood has not reached the river at any
point above.
BY telephone from Secretary Nc
Weigh at Memphis, we learn that the
river al that point ut 10 O'Clock this
morning stood forty feet and one tenth
and rising. Another break in the
levee occurred at Rard ON Shot, about
two miles above Pecan Point. The
levees at Luxora and O5ceola are now
considered safe.
Mr.. killOugh, president Of the levee
board sent fleet OF twenty five skiffs
in the overlooked district, and only
brought out one man, showing that
there is no life in danger. He will ala
so send fleet TO the overlooked dis.
trict TO get out all stock.
The situation is favorable, provid.
ing strong winds do not prevail.
All the rivers above are falling.
