CHICAGO SCOURGE
is STILL GROWING
Hundred More Cases Yesterday Than
Day Before-Parts of City
Suffer Most.

Chicago. Jan. 24.-The epidemic Of
contagious diseases in Chicago jumped
almost 100 new cases yesterday over
the record established Tuesday. Three
hundred and two cases of contagion
were reported to the health depart
ment as against PA Tuesday. which
was twice as many as seven days pre-
viOusly. Two hundred and twenty
three cases of scarlet fever was the
record made yesterday, 50 new diph-
iberia patients were reported, and -
miscellaneous contagious diseases. The
most serious condition prevails in the
neighborhood of Humboldt park and
Logan square. City officials asserted
almost 20 per cent of the cases coming
in were from that district.
A study of the map of the city of
Chicago shows the Hyde Park police
district to be most free OF any in the
city from contagiOn. There are COM
paratively few cases in the Englewood
police district Few cases have been
reported from the socalled "colOred
belt" Five cases of scarlet fever and
one of diphtheria were reported in the
Thirty-fifth ward yesterday.

CITY THREATENED
Grand Rapids, Mich, Menaced
by Gorge Causing Flood
in the River.
SOUTHERN LEVEES BREAK
Near Record Below New
OrIeans-No Danger at
City.

Grand Rapids. Mich. Jan. 24.-An
ice gorge that formed in Grand river
below the city yesterday is still un-
broken and the flood situation is be
coming alarming. The lowlands are
already flooded and many factories
have been closed. Police were sent
out to carry a general alarm to all
business men and householders and
others in the lOwlands. and the hurried
moving of goods from the easements
and lower stories was begun. The
weather is extremely cold which adds
to the seriousness of the situation.
Peculiar Condition at New Orleans.
New Orleans. Jan. PA phenom-
email rise has occurred in the Missis-
sippi river 10 miles below here, where
for three days the levees have been
breaking.
The river stands within about one
tenth of foot of the highest rise on
record in that district. The river at
New Orleans and for 100 miles north
ward is three feet and more under the
previous high records.
Break i'm Levee stopped.
Shawneetown. ILL.,, Jan. 24.-More eX-
citement and uneasiness has prevailed
in Shawneetown yesterday than at any
time during the present high water.
About noon one of the guards discov-
cred that water was coming through
the levee in a stream and a great deal
of sand was in the water. Hundreds
of citizens rushed to the place and
worked all afternoon putting sandbags
in the hole. 1t required several hun
dred bags to fill the hole.
All parts of the levee are now under
close inspection and it is thought it
will stand The river is sos feet and
rising. 1t probably Will come to
stand here tomorrow at about So feet.
If the levee should break there
would be no loss of life and little loss
of personal property.
