EAST ST. LOUIS
PREPARED FOR FLOOD.

AS result of unceasing activity the
officials of East st. Louis feel confident
that should the flood continue to increase
they can successfully resist it.
Although the flood news received by
Mayor silas Cook yesterday was decided
ly reassuring. none of the active prepara-
tions to protect the city from the en-
croachments were abandoned. but. II any,

this point absolutely safe. 1t is said.
On the southern side of the city the
Illinois Central has filled in the gap where
the break occurred last year and has
built a sack dixie extending two blocks
from the roundhouse at Trendley avenue.
The dixie last evening looked like I'M
necessary work to many who visited the
place. as the water has not risen within
foot of the top Of the railroad tracks.
but 1t is said that the precautionary
measure has been deemed the best.

WATER INC0NVENIENCES
ALTON INDUSTRIES.

The Mississippi River at Alton continued
to ris" yesterday. and at 6 o'clock last
night showed total rise of Is foot dur
Ing the twenty-four hours preceding. 1t
is expected. however, that by noon to-day
the river will show decline and that
further danger will have been averted
The water has caused considerable in
convenience to the manufacturing Indus
tries situated along the river front. and
number of plants have been forced to keep
pumps going day and night to prevent the
stopping of their machinery. The part Of
the city below the glass plant known as
1.-The Willows'' is completely inundated.
No serious loss of property. however. has
been reported. No occasion has required
official aid as yet. but Mayor Henry
Brueggeman has announced that he will
appoint relief committee should the
emergency require.

CITY OF VENICE
PRACTICALLY DESERTED.

Venice is practically a deserted city.
Hardly fifty families have remained in
the city. The others have hauled and
carried their household furniture. either to
railroad cars or in wagons. to the bluffs at
Alton and toward Edwardsville.
Much suffering was occasioned at Ven
ice last year by the high water and hun
dreds Of families lost all of their house
hold goods.
This year they have determined not to
lose through the flood. and when the water
began creeping UP on the railroad en-
bankments. which protect the town. prepa-
rations were made to move.
The moving began Monday morning and
has continued until the town looks abso-
lutely deserted. Even saloons were taken
out Of the town. On the west side of
Main street all of the houses and cottages
are under from four to twenty feet of
water. There are hundreds of houseboats
west Of Venice. many of which were unfit
to float. and these now lie at the bottom
Of a vast body of water. Their occupants
have found refuge with other citizens of
Venice
The work Of rescue from several Of the
houseboats which 1t was feared would not
stand the strain of the high water was al
most finished last evening. The work was
done voluntarily by other houseboatmen
and fishermen.

'.As some recent experience has shown
said Mr.. Price. '.he who aspires to be a

II believe that 1 have learned one les

ual, and that whenever an attempt on
large scale is made to mulct the profits
of an important industry or business In
fuences are set in motion which will ulti-
mately and inevitably react upon the au-
thor of such an attempt; and that success
in speculation is only possible TO him who
follows rather than attempts to force the
operation of this law.
Il cannot close this address without a
very brief allusion to fact with which
l am more ana more impressed as

that is the utter impotence of the indi-
