Ohio on a Stand.
CAIRO. ILL.,, April 5.-"The Ohio has
been at stand for forty hours, was
the cheerful word passed around the
beleagured city tonight. And to resi-
dents of Cairo, that meant much, for
the crest had been expected tonight
and early this evening no rise had
come.
Mayor George Parson believes that
54.I feet. which stage the river has
held for nearly two days, will be the
crest of the flood The mayor said to-
night that Cairo defenders had been
SO busy working on the levees that
the streets were getting dusty.
Twenty thousand persons are camp
ing in the hills tonight in Illinois,
driven there by the floods in the east,
south and central portions Of Illinois,
according to an estimate by Adjutant
General Dickson Of the Illinois nation
al guard. Dickson is tonight on his
way down the Mississippi from st.
Louis. bound for this city on the fish
commissions steamer. Illinois,
The steamer carries 10000 rations
and several hundred tents for distri-
button among the flood refugees along
the Ohio and Mississippi rivers.
From Shawneetown, Illinois, it was
reported that starvation faces the 500
refugees In the tent city in the hills
back of where Shawneetown once
stood. At the time the camp was
established. officials in charge were
confident that the city was well pro-
visioned. A steamer stopped there
yesterday and left all the supplies it
had-500 pounds Of rations-for 800
persons, the only relief they have re-
ceived.
Word is anxiously awaited tonight
from Col. Daniel J. Moriarty. who left
this morning for Mounds, H., to in
vestigate the report that detach-
ment Of the Seventh regiment and per-
sons there were In imminent danger
as the levees were weak and liable to
break.
Relief reached three hundred refu-
gees at New Haven, ILL.,, late today
when tents and provisions arrived
from Springfield The river is falling
there. Reports reaching here say the
Nutwood leyee, near Jerseyyille, is in
danger of breaking under the strain
now sweeping the lower end of the
Illinois river.
Whether or not the 1evee at Point
Pleasant, Mo-. has gone out is in
doubt. Engineer H A. Wheeler in
charge of the levee, reported it had
broken. A. B. Hunter, planter, tele-
phoned from New Madrid, Mo-, deny

The tube used by the teacher is alone
