VALLEY UNDER WATER
Disastrous LeYee Break Near
SaCrameni0-LOSs Will
Reach Thousands.

Sacramento, Cal, Feb. 26.-The most
disastrous levee break that has been
known for several years in this part
of the Sacramento valley occurred to-
gay at a point three miles from the
city. The break was caused by the
seepage of water through q gopher
hole. the water soon getting beyond
control. The creVasse IS abouf f60 feet
long and the column of water is thirty
feet high, pouring through the break
like a Niagara. The roar of the water
can be heard for nearly a mile as it
rushes through the break 1T is es-
timated that at least 10000 acres Of
valuable land VIII be submerged The
loss will reach thousands Of dollars.
but by energetic efforts in closing the
break it is expected TO minimize the
damage
Boats have been kept busy all after
noon taking people from the lower le-,
wee, and as far as can be ascertained
all We're safely rescued.
All down the valley people were
warned By telephone and only those
near the break were caught in the
overflow and back-water. About 100
head OF cattle were drowned.
The break caused 10 trouble OF ap-
prehension in the city Of Sacramento
as the break is below the city limits.
The levees about this city are impTeg-
nabIe and guard the city on all sides.
