driven from their homes and many
thousands of dollars worth of damage
was done by a flood In Perry creek, a
small stream which separates the
East and West Sides of Sioux City.
The flood was the worst in the city's
history.
There were many narrow escapes,
but only one life was reported lost.
A cloudburst north of Sioux City is
believed to have been the cause.
Leon Bcthschider, aged twenty-one
an employe of the Bevins Van com
pany, was precipitated into Perry
creek by the bank giving way He
lost his life, being unable to swim in
the raging current.
IL Is estimated that in the densely
populated district along the creek 500
homes are surrounded by water. The
plant of the Sioux City Traction com
pany was flooded No cars are run
ming and thousands were compelled
to walk
In the wholesale district near the
Missouri river front water from the
creek ran along the streets and food
ed cellars, causing heavy loss. At
Fourth and Water streets there was a
foot of water on the first floors of the
stores
The gas mains to the West Side
were broken by the flood and thou
sands of people were forced to eat
cold breakfasts.
Farmers up stream telephoned to
this city at midnight news of the
coming flood As quickly as possible
all available steam whistles here were
blown and residents in the threatened
districts were aroused by police and
firemen, but the food came so rapidly
that many persons had close calls.
The damage done in Sioux City is
placed at more than $250,O00. The
city's loss in damage to bridges will
run into the thousands.
