FLOOD DAMAGE IS
HEAVY NEAR CRUCES
Washouts Tie Up Railroad
and Do Damage to Prop
erty in Valley.

Las Cruces, n. NJ, Aug 27-Heavy
rains in this section have not only put
the Santa Fe out of commission for
several days, owing to a washout be-
tween Mesilla Park and Mesquite. but
it also did much damage to the adobe
houses in the Mexican portion of town,
where at least three houses were de-
molished and much damage done to roofs
and walls OF other houses that were not
destroyed.
To the east of town, on one of the
large arroyas coming down from the
mountains, the people constructed a con-
crete wing dam that was intended to
stop any ordinary flood from coming
into the business section and doing dam
age to the streets through which the
water was formerly allowed to run until
it reached one of the main canals. The
rain was so heavy that the arroyo re-
fused to carry the entire flow of water,
and as a result it washed over the dam,
grade on the lower side and endanger-
ing the whole structure. Prompt action
will be necessary to save the dam in case
more rains should come.
Bridge Washed Out.
The wagon bridge on the Grandview
subdivision, q wooden structure about
40 feet long, was washed from its foun-
dation by the flood and carried down
the current for several hundred yards
before it finally lodged near the home
OF W. W Cox on the Paseo. and work
men are busy cutting the bridge up in
sections to take 1t back to the crossing
Of College avenue.
Both the Paseo on the south of town.
and the Alameda on the north. were
flooded so that they are impossible for
automobiles. and it Is all that a team
can manage to haul an empty wagon
over many portions OF the submerged
roads The Canine Real to the south
OF Mesilla Park at one point is impas-
sable and in crossing with a small Ford
roadster the driver got into mud and
leaving the car stranded in about three
feet of water.
Heavy Loss to Crops.
Alfalfa has been a heavy loss on &C
count of these rains. and it is estimated
that the loss viii exceed 200 cars
through the entire valley; this includes
the hay in the Anthony section,
where nearly the entire fourth cutting
was on the gToond and the rain came
and caught the growers at time when
it was impossible to save any.
The fruit is not injured to any extent.
nor is the vegetable crop, onions and
cereals. The orchards never looked bet
ter at this season of the year, and the
apple crop in particular viii be one of
the greatest crops the valley has ever
known in this, line in years. J. G. Stuart
is engaged in picking some of his early
varieties now, and shipments will com
mence within short time of both pears
and apples in large quantities.
Owing to the impossible condition of
the roads caused by the vast amount
Of rain, and the frequent floods from the
mountains. shipments of hay have fallen

weeks, as soon as the roads are dry

Inundated.

State College, y. NJ, Aug. 2T.-It was
found on opening up the department
of domestic science after the big rain

ment. The whole department had just
been put in order. floors oiled, and
everything made ready for the opening
of school Fortunately, the Navajo
rugs were folded and put on a table
tht day before the flood, and the
stenciling materials were nigh and
dry in the glass cases. so that the
only real damage done was to the
floors and windows. The library. on
the third floor Of Hadley hail. came
in for share of leaking roofs, but
no books were seriously dana ged.

seek shelter in a neighbor's house
Several other adobe shacks were
severely damaged.
A new adobe barn just completed
by Prof. Hare, was seriously damaged
by the flood Saturday night.
The rain storm is alleged by many
of the old timers to be the heaviest
one to occur 70 rabout so years. The
frequent binding flashes Of light
ming revealed torrents of black muddy
water in every direction. with only
spot of the highest ground occasion
ally visible above the rushing water.
The athletic field was made a lake,
and many residents of the houses in
the vicinity Of the college were pre-
pared to take flight should the water
rise much higher around their porches.
Deep gullies were washed in the
roads leading down from the noun
