S u NDAY'S T0RRENTIAL
DOtyNpOUR ADDS TO LOSS
or LIFE AND PROPERTY
CBy Associated Press.)

Huston, April 2G The flood con-
dition today appears TO be steadily
intensifying along the lower reaches
of trains-state streams. Reports show
the Trinity Brazos, Colorado, st. Ber-
nard and other streams out Of banks
1t many points with the inundated
area steadily extending.
While no additional loss of life has
been reported today the loss to far
mers in the low lands and along the
valleys traversed by the swollen riv-
ers is steadily increasing and will
reach well into the millions. Miles
of farm country, that last week was
in excellent condition with growing
crops promising a bumper crop, is
now laid waste and is completely
ruined.
Several unauthentic reports from
the flood districts, telling of loss OF
life were received this afternoon. One
small town is reported completely
under water. Many horses, cattle
and hogs have been drowned and a
cotton warehouse swept away The
added rains of last night and this
morning have caused the streams to
again begin rising.
The total death roll now is placed
at 6S.
