A HEAVY LOSS
Of LIVES
THERE
Big Additions Were Made Yesterday
and Today to the Death Tolls of
the Fearful Floods in Missis-

HUNDREDS ARE STILL IN PERIL
Torrns Scene of Latest Appalling
Losses.-trantic Appeals for
Help-Not Enough Rescue
Boats-Getting Worse.
Associated Press.

New Roads, La, May 6.-Refugees
reaching here today declare that
there has been some loss of life as a
result of the breach in the levee at
Torras Ii Is said that motorboat,
which was sent to take a number of
persons from floating housetops in
the district, arrived too late to save
them.
Leaders of the rescue corps admit
that several times they have sent mo-
torboats to points where families had
taken refuge on the roofs of houses,
and that. when the boat arrived, its
crew found only the floating house
tops partially submerged.
Appeals for help reached here last
night from Lettsworth, which is di-
rectly in the path of the Torras tor
rent. Half a hundred people there
are reported to be in imminent peril
of drowning. The house in which
they had taken shelter had been dis
lodgtSl from it's foundation and tossed
about in the current of the flood
At least a thousand persons still
remain to be rescued in the inundated
country west of Lettsworth and Bat
chelor. Some of them are drifting
about on hastily constructed RATS.
When the relief train from Bat
chelor sped through the water, which
was running over the tracks, just
north of Morgansea. scores of persons
were seen standing waist-deep in the
water near the railroad, signaling
the train to stop. The water was ris-
ing so rapidly that stop would have
imperilled all who We're on board the
train, and so no stop was made
An urgent appeal for boats to be
used in the rescue work has been
sent to Governor Sanders at New Or
leans.

New Orleans, La, May 6.-The fol-
lowing report was issued Sunday

In the Vicksburg territory the
army relief depot has been furnish
ing supplies to approximately 81
600 persons, about half of whom came
from the oyerflowed Northeast Louis
lana territory, the other half from
Mississippi.
The Baton Rouge federal depot is
furnishing supplies to approximately
10000 others.
Local relief committees are caring
for probably 10000 more.
This gives a grand total of approx
imately 131,000S persons whom the
floods have driven from their homes
in Mississippi and Louisiana. A very
large number of these will have to
be fed and clothed for weeks to come.

Mr.. Ehr claims that the question Of

The plaintiff contends that it is not

benefited II the question of selling the
real estate is left to the voters at the

tract a revolutionist who wouldn't
care to tackle the United States.
Yesterday the president received
several long messages from Acting
Secretary of State Huntington Wilson
In Washington. His order to the
Tenth infantry to advance on Nicara-
qua vas issued in Beverly just before
he left for Columbus. Messages from
Mr.. Wilson were received at Albany,
n. Y, and at other points east of
Rochester and kilograms from the
navy department also kept coming to
Mr.. Taft's private car.
Neither the state nor navy depart
ment wished to see United States
troops sent into Nicaragua. The GUS
tom in similar cases has been to land
marines. The president said that
while the sending of a regiment of
infantry would not be an act Of war
he would prefer to use marines. If
an available force could be found
quickly. His kilograms to Washing
ton evidently were fruitful, for he
was of the opinion that the navy had
found enough marines to to look after
every American and all American
property that might be endangered.
If he finds the situation critical later
he will not hesitate to use the army,
but he was hopeful that the insurrec-
tos and government leaders will see
the futility of trying to make it UNI
comfortable for American citizens.
