New York.-The ocean steamships
Bolton Castle and Pacific, and a 900
foot pier belonging to the New York
Dock Company in Brooklyn, have been
destroyed by most disastrous fire on
the Brooklyn water front in years.
Another steamer, the Pallazia, was
damaged, about 25 scows and lighters
were partly or wholly Burned, and two
coolies from the Bolton Castle and Pa
cific were missing after the fire. The
loss is estimated at more than $3,OOO,-
600. 1t was first reported that 46
coolies were missing, but police later
accounted for all but two of them.
The origin of the fire is unknown,
but suspicious that it was incendiary

were loading with war munitions, some
of which was intended for the Rus

PEOPLE FLEE BEFORE FLOOD
Main Line Of Mississippi Levee Give
Way and Louisiana ls Inundated.
Warnings Given.

Natchez.-A telephone report from
Newellton states that the break be-
tween Buck Ridge Landing and the
turn on Lake Palmyra is widening
rapidly and that Lake st. Joseph il
rising at the rate of a foot IN hour.
Large numbers Of people have left
Newellton and the vicinity, but many
are staying to make a fight against
the o%nrushing waters. The attempt
to build a protection levee around the
town Of Newellton has been given up
as hopeless.
United States Engineer W. C. Bar
ton, President E. C. Rhodes OF the
leVee board, Ben Young and F. l..
Guthrie, members Of the board, are on
the scene, but no attempt will be
made to stop the crevasse, as this is
impossible.
Relief trains are taking large num-
bers OF people and stock out Of the
danger zone and quantities of stock
n household goods are gathered on
the levee at landings along Lake Pal
myria and the Mississippi.
The main line levee, rs miles above
st. Joseph, has also gone out and the
Mississippi is now sending its pent-up
waters through the crevasse. Newell
ton, st. Joseph and Waterproof, towns
Of about 1000 inhabitants each, are
in the track Of the flood. All of Ten
sas and Concordia parishes will be
flooded and perhaps a much larger ter
ritory. The crevasse appeared just
opposite the town Of Newellton.
Newellton, the nearest town to the
break, is about six miles inland. The
break came at an unexpected point.
The destruction will be i%ncalculable,
because despite the record-breaking
stage, which the Mississippi has reach
ed very little uneasiness has been felt
and 1t has been generally believed that
the levees would hold.
When the break came the entire sur.
rounding country was warned by tele-
phone and courier. Residents of New.
elton are Fastening to leave and 9TH
ers in the area of the flood are making
every effort to get away.
Calahoula, Madison and Franklin
parishes will be affected by the flood.
Is reported from st. Joseph that
there are two breaks.
The flooded district, 1t is estimated,
will include 1900 square miles. The
break in the levee near Newellton has
reached a width of 200 yards and is
hourly.

1000 GUNS CAPTURED.
Turkish Garrison at Ezrum Is Esti-
mated At 100, 900,

London.-While it is semi-offcially
estimated in Petrograd that 100, 900
Turks and 1000 guns were in the gar,
rison at Erzerum, late advices state
that a portion at least of the Turkish
army has escaped. These advices,
which are unofficial, say the Turks are
%retreating westward through a diff.
cult country.
The capture of 1000 guns would set
a record for the war. When the Ger
mans took Novo Georgievsk, the great
Russian stronghold at the confluence
of the Vistula and Narew, they found
only 700 cannon. Many of the guns at
Erzerum were Of ancient type, it is
stated.
The city fell before the frontal at
tack delivered in great force after the
heavy artillery had partly silenced the
forts. The bayonet played a large part
n the winning of the fortress.

lions and events in Mexico. The Sen.
ate was informed that 1t was not com.

The following official statement has
been given out in Petrograd:
Grand Duke Nicholas has tele.
graphed to the emperor as follows.
God has granted to the brave
troops OF the army Of the Caucasus
such great help that Erzerum has been
taken after five days of unprecedented
assaults.
So am inexpressibly happy to an.

stores OF munitions and supplies fell

1t is believed. The blow is the most
serious yet struck at Turkey. Early
relief of the British forces operating
In Mesopotamia, including the beleag.
ured garrison at Kut-et.Amara. Is pre.
dicted.
The fall of Erzerum is expected to
open the way for a huge advance by
the Russians through Eastern Armenia
IN the spring, Constantinople itself
might be imperiled. BY this contem.
plated drive the Russians, it is said
hope to bring Turkey to her knees.
The Russian campaign was unpar,
alleled in military history. The ad.
vance was pressed across a bleak and
rugged country. over mountains and
through narrow defiles in Arctic cold.
Russian official reports state that at
places the soldiers fought their ad.
vance through snow 10 feet deep.
Erzerum, a city OF 10000, is about
60 miles west of the Russian frontier.
1t is surrounded by a stone wall built
by the Turks three centuries ago. On
the eastern side a high mountain ridge
outside the wall protects the city from
attack from the Russian Caucasus.
