COMING OF FLOOD
Cats Placed Throughout City.
In Anticipation Of Break In
Levee- Crisis Is Near at
Hand.

Cairo, III. April 5.-Anxiety to pre-
cent the levee from breaking on tho
Ohio river side of Cairo led citizens to-
day to overlook temporarily danger
from the Mississippi. The result was
that force of workmen had to ba
rushed to the, west levee today as a
washout was threatened between Nine
teenth and Twenty fourth streets.
High winds had caused the river to
cut into the bank to such an extent
that danger was Imminent before the
fact was discovered.
Several hundred bags OF sand were
hurriedsy carried from the Ohio rivea
levee. BY the transfer which was made
in automobiles, further erosion OF the
bank was prevented for the time.
The flood on the Mississippi side ID
well below the levee top Water which
VAS backed in the Cache river at Mound
City. ILL.,, has found an outlet into the
Mississippi and has caused slight rise
in the river.
Arrangement being made by Lieut.,
Buckner, United States army, for the
comfort and safety OF the people went
briskly ahead today. BY night 1t wai
expected that small life RATS would be
placed throughout the city and Al
