Unprecedented Fall Continues
and Ruin Is Great.
S35,0O0,00O LOSS IN AUGUST
Water ard Harvest Must Be Com.
pleted by Hand Labor-May
Abandon Maneuvers.

London, Aug. 27.-There is no
respite in Great Britain's abnormal
deluge and 1t is nearing sensational
dimensions. 1t has been raining
again in parts Of the country for for.
ty-eight hours continuously, which,
coming on top of the previous down,
falls, has completed the ruination Of
the crops and the Unemployment of
agricultural workers. Big areas of
grain are standing stacked in two feet
OF water and where they have not
been reaped are lying fiat. Elsewhere
quantities of grain have been swept
away by flooded rivers.
Vast Loss to Farmers.
1t is figured that the losses to Brit.
ish farmers by the damage to crops
and live stock in the month of August
is fully sS5,000,000. Whatever grain
1t may be possible to reap if the rain
ceases must be harvested by hand la
Dor, as it will be impossible to use
machinery on the sodden ground.
Seaside and other holiday resorts
are sharing in the general misery. Ho-
tells, boarding houses and other cater
ers are dismayed because the people
are remaining at home. Some of the
railways have been compelled to dis
continue service on account of the
floods.
Rains Drive Out Soldiers.
The annual army maneuvers which
are about to begin In the eastern coun-
ties are threatened with abandon
ment. The Guards brigade, which was
already under tents, was driven out
by the floods and compelled to take
refuge In schools and barns.
Many soldiers at fixed camps such
as Aldershot and Salisbury Plain are
IN the hospitals suffering with pneu-
monia and other pulmonary diseases
and the medical officers are advising
the abandonment of the tents.
The weather conditions In western
Europe are generally similar to those
IN Great Britain.

Senator DIXON was at work today
upon an itinerary for Roosevelt. The

BERLIN, March 19.-Emper0r Will
liam most unexpectedly postponed
his departure from Vienna to Venice
and Corfu, which was scheduled for
March 20. The reason given for the
postponement was difficulties in the
sphere Of internal politics" This ex-
PLANTATION is so indefinite that it may
refer either to the strike as more
probable, or to the conflict in con.
nection with the provision Of finan.
ces over the increase in the army
and navy recently decided upon, and
which caused the resignation OF
Adolph Wermouth, former secretary
OF the imperial treasury.
There is a strong disposition here,
however, to connect the emperor's
action with the speech delivered by
Winslow Spencer Churchill, first
Lord Of Admiralty In the British
House Of Commons. The view is
strengthened by the fact that the en-
peror today paid long visit to Ad-
miral Albert Won Tirpitz, secretary
Of the imperial navy, Immediately at.
ter which leading officers Of the adj
mirolty staff assembled, the object Of
which was not disclosed.
