FLOOD SPREAD S
ESTRUCT|O
ON Aqua FRA
Fifteen Foot Wall of Water In
Arizona Valley Washes Away
Ranches. Orchards and Some
Houses.

Reports coming in from the Aqua
Fria country of Arizona Indicate that
the storm which visited that section
Tuesday was the most destructive in
the history of that part OF the
try since its first settlement. In its
fury the flood did many thousands OF
dollars worth of damage, in carrying
away railroad bridges, washing away
farms, houses, orchards ana mining
camps, besides drowning a large mum
Der of cattle and horses, and demol-
ishing fences.
A peculiar feature of the nood was
that the greatest damage was done
where there was absolutely no rain
fall until after the high waters had
subsidized.
The Prescott Journal-M Miner says an
eyewitness to the havoc wrought in
the Dewey section stated yesterday
that in riding across the Aqua FRA
valley on horseback, his horses hoofs
were throwing dust in the air as he
urged him on TO high ground, To es-
cape the wall of rushing water which
he saw coming down the valley with
a crest about fifteen feet high, with
horses, cows. calves and the wreck Of
the railroad bridges floating ON its
surging bosom.
Al Dewey the Hood waters spread
out over a mile of territory. All the
lumber in Gllbert's lumber yard float
cd down stream and his wagons were
only saved by being caught i'm trees
and fences. At Humboldt the waters
rushed into the Box canyon with ter
rife fury, carrying lumber and wreck
age, and dealing destruction to stock
and houses along the stream. Forty
acres of garden on the Hill ranch,
above Stoddard, were washed entirety
away, with the u"nharvested crop. and
the Copper Queen Gold Mining com
pany's camp, including bunk house,
boarding house, stables n other
buildings, as well as the harness.
wagon and buggies, were noated
away. The lodging house. with its
entire contents, at Stoddard. was the
next victim to the onward rush of
waters, which. at this point, rose if-
teen feet above the bed of the river.
Lessard's alfalfa farm and orchard
which he has spent the past fifteen
years in improving. and which was
considered the most valuable place on
the Aqua Fria river. was entirely
washed away by the waters. which
almost reached his house and barns.
The pent-up fury Of the waters had
not yet abated when "Klondyke RMS"
goat ranch was reached. Even Itilis
residence. which stood on high ground.
was struck by the waters, and lodged
about twenty feet further down on a
projecting ledge.
In the Upper Verde country, near
Del Rio, Carl Rees' rauAh was com
pletely ruined n the fences washed
away. His house was not touched by
the flood. u some of the outbuild-
ings suffered serious damage as well
as the crops. which are n total loss.
All of the fences were ruined on the
l. ID. J.. Williams ranch, in Chino val
ley, and other serious damage is re-
ported from Isolated places through
the country.
