The loss of the Felix bridge was
not learned until afternoon train had
left Roswell The news had reached
Dexter however, by the time the cars
had reached that place and the train
men tried to go no farther. Instead.
they backed their train into Roswell
and abandoned their trip. For this
home, or to points south, had to re
turn to Roswell and will be here in
definitely. Some who started ON this
trip are noted in the Record as having
gone but will be here until the bridg-
es are replaced.
When the news came yesterday af-
ternoon that the Penasco bridge was
out the railroad company decided TO
run the train to Artesia. but now they
will make Roswell their terminal on
this line to the south The train went
north from here this morning.
w. w. Garwood, superintendent of
the P. V. & N. E., arrived in Roswell
last night and made preparations for
replacing the lost bridge to the south.
He ordered out working crews for
this afternoon and they will go to
work as soon as they reach the scene
of the destroyed bridges. The pile

make it necessary to rebuild the Pc.
nasco bridge first 1t will be several
days at least before travel to the
south can be resumed.

ed like a flood was already here. The

south of the court house block, as
well as the block on Third street
south of the post Office, would have

feet of the Main street bridge at an
early hour this morning and was com
ing up rapidly. At the reservoir the
water this morning was within six
inches of the height it reached during
the flood last fall.

j. Walter Day of Dayton, who is in
the city unable to return to his home
on account of the railroad bridges be-
ing washed out, received telephone
message this afternoo nfrom DR.. A.
L. Norfieet, cashier of the bank of Ar
tesla, in which the doctor gave the
news that the houses of w. c. Mar
able, Mr.. Yeargin and Mr.. Lattion,
washed away by the food of the Pen
asco river last night. 1t was reported
that Mr.. Days home was destroyed
also, but the report lacks confirmation
All three of the cottages reported
to have been destroyed by the food
were SUBSTANTIAL cottages of four and
five room and had been built about
five years. The Day home is on the
banks of the Penasco.
The message from DR.. Norfleet also
stated that the work train of the rail-
road company is between the Penas
co river and Artesia.
The situation in Roswell is very
gratifying. A fine rain of almost 4
inches has fallen in the past five
days and crops, lawns, streets, roads
and general conditions are improved
beyond estimate. No damage was
done by what surface water flowed
through the streets.
This afternoon the reports from the
Hondo go to show that there is no
need of fear for an overflow. Al
though the water has been higher
than it was during the flood last fall,
the protection is SO much better that
there has hardly been any need of
fear at any time. This afternoon the
reliable reports were that the water
is falling both here and at the reser-
voir, twelve miles west of town.
The Morning Situation.
With some actual damages. many
great inconv@ @niances and alarming
possibilities, the rain and flood sitra-
ton in this city, county and general
section has assumed a serious aspect
Since Friday. when the present rain
began, the surface water has been
growing days by day until it has
reached a quantity that gives it pow
er and destructiveness.

lows:
