THREE COUNTIES
ALREADY FLOODED
One Hundred Thousand
Rations are Issued to
Provide for Ten Thous-
and Persons-Stage at
New Orleans is Now Lit
tie Below two feet of Last
Years Record.
By ASSOCIATED PRESS.

vicksburg, April 22.-Widened to
over one thousand feet, the Woodlawn
crevasse continues caving, and the
waters have spread to the towns Of
Mayersville, Rolling Fork and other
small places. IssaQuenna, Sharkey and
Washington counties are flooded. Train
service on the Yazoo and Mississippi
nulled at o'clock this afternoon.
One hundred thousand rations were
issued today by Captain W. B. Bar
ker, Of the United States army, to pro-
vide for ten thousand persons expect
ed to be affected. Capt Shaw, Of the
steamer Ben Hur, reported today that
a. refugee camp will probably be es-
tablished at Mayersvi1le. No panic
exists at the break, and the people are
making systematic efforts to save live
stock and other property. A few dry
spots still exist near Mayersville. The
situation is serious but no lives have
been lost.
The flood waster was several feet
deep in the town of Mayersviile this
morning, Duncansby was flooded from
two to six feet and the crevasse water
had reachsd the Gresnville branch OF
the Yazoo 4nd Mississippi valley rail-
road above Rolling Fork. This branch,
as well as the main line OF the Yazoo
and Mississippi Valley road, will be
put out of commission before morning.
From Vicksburg north to Helena,
Ark, the river remained almost sta
tionary during the past "a hours but
continues to rise from Natchez south.
DANGER OF BREAKS.
There is still some danger of breaks
at White Oak Lake, Duck Pond, and
near Forest, on the Louisiana side Of
the river above Red river, but the
engineers today express the belief that
the flood in that section would be con-
trolled. 1t is not considered that the
danger stage will be approached in the
vicinity of Baton Rouge until ab@ut
May 1.
Generally cloudy weather prevailed
over the lower Mississippi valley to-
day, the first discouraging sign Of this
kind in nearly two weeks.
The river stage at New Orleans is
2.6 feet below the previous high record.
At Donaldsonville, La, it lacks 3.5 feet
of reaching the high water mark of
last year.
