Newport Inundated.

Newport, Aug. 23.-Practically the
 entire population is marooned in the two principal hotels and the court
 house here.
 With the flood and water supplies
 practically exhausted, the entire town
 covered with from to 12 feet of
 water, and railroad traffic stopped, the people seem doomed to great suf- fering. The telephone is the only means of communication with the out side world and this threatens to be |cut off at any minute. Two white boys were drowned near here today, but it was impossible to learn their names.
 The steamers Muskogee and Mary |G. Lucas are running day and night rescuing families from the overflowed districts many of the dwellers of the |lowands being taken from trees Sun |day. It was at first thought that the water would not reach the stage pre- dcted by the government director, and little precautions were taken to save stock, resulting in great loss |of cattle in the lower bottoms.

 Military experts here are fthe opinion that the German plan of a campaign has been struck a severe blow in the failure of the operations against Riga. but admit that the situ- aton for the Russians at Brest-Li- tovsk is prccarious The fortress Is reported to be invested from three sides. and the GerTans are striking at the railroad upon which it de: bends.
 The occupation of Ossowicz. last remaining stronghold in Poland, rep orted today by Berlin. gives the Ger msns control of the railway to Bielsk and Brest-Litovsk completing their grip on the Polish railway feeding the Warsaw-Petrograd trunk line. The fortress was evacuated bv the Russians when the advOnce of Prince Lecpold's forces threatened their en- velopment. It is believed that all the military stores and guns were re- moved. Berlin makes no claim to the capture of booty.
