tions From city-Has Gone Down
Few Inches Since Thursday.

The food water in the Iowa river
valley Is receding slowly in all direc-
ton from the city. but 1t was reported
rising again at Steamboat Rock early
this forenoon. At the city pumping
station at about noon it was estimated
that the water had gone down about
six inches since noon Thursday.
Frank B. Sheffield, caretaker OF the
Country Club, said the water had
fallen about three inches where 1t was
flooding the grounds. At Marietta It
was said that the water was going
down but very slowly.
In the lowlands east of the city the
flood water spread farthest late Thurs
day during the night, and there the
water covered more land this forenoon
than it did at the same hour Thurs
day.
Both the Nicholson ford and the East
Main street roads are under water in
the vicinity of the river. A traveller
reported the Nicholson ford road under
water that came up to the wagon box
in the vicinity of the bayou bridges
south of the river. The water in one
of the bayous was up to the floor of a
bridge in the East Main street road
near the river this forenoon.
