LAREDO (Tex.), Aug. 2S.-Word
was received this afternoon of the
most disastrous flood ever known IN
northern Mexico. According to a
rumor, believed to be grossly exag-
gerated, 1000 lives were lost. The
damage is estiamted at $4,000, 900
for the forty-eight hour deluge. Rain
falling in torrents swelled the Santa
Catarina river to mile and a half
wide. The stream over-fowed a part
of the city of Monterey, flooded the
electric plant, paralized the carr serv-
ice and crippled the water supply.
Adobe buildings in Monterey were
struck by the flood and simply dis
solved. In many instances the in
habitants were drowned like rats in

Yesterday the Esmeralda county
grand jury, after investigating the

kill. Prior to the finding of the
true bills, Casey was brought be-
fore the inquisitorial body, and ask
ed il he had any objections to the
of the jury, a privilege
allowed by the laws of this state.
He answered that he had not. In
he resembled a disinter-
ested person throughout and whe,i
notified of the indictments shovel
no concern whatever. The court ap.
pointed Attorney Jack Diskin to de-
fend him.
The jury also brought in two in
dictments against couple known as

ducting a Tbadger game" An in
dictment was also returned which
was placed on the secret file pending

ward starting that city on a sound
business basis.
