At midnight the river showed 219 feet, one tenth higher than the highest previous point The rain was still falling in torrents. but the levees were still holding River officials stated their belief at midnight there was not the slightest chance for the banks to break A special train tonight took B. 900 sand bags to Baton Rouge, where the situation is said to be desperate. It is not believed the Ievee fronting the city can be saved. Guards patrol the entire river front there and the least seepage is in stantly closed. In New Orleans the water is going over the top of the levee. Esplanade street and many city streets are flooded as never be- fore. The water came near the Southern Pacific depot, but men with sand bags quickly stopped the rush of water down the street.
