FLOOD SWEEPS OYER
THE YUMA VALLEY
Four Miles Of Government Levee
Washed Out and Whole
Region Inundated
HUNDRED HOUSES DESTROYED

nGAhEIlNs
YUMA, Aris., Jan. 23.--With the
waters Of the Colorado river reced-
ing. work of rescuing Yuma valley
flood sufferers was carried forward
today by local authorities aided by
officials Of the Southern Pacific
railroad from Tucson, Ariz., who ar
rived here with equipment TO sup.
ply the city temporarily with water,
gas and electricity. II was estl-
mated that the damage from the
flood would amount TO more than
$1,000, 900.
The river fell y feet this morn
ing and continued to recede, though
II was still above the 33-foot stage.
YUMA, Aris., Jan. 23.--Yuma
valley was covered to q depth Of
from one TO four feet by flood water
from the Colorado river tonight as
q result Of the breaking of the gov
eminent levees near here today.
The city Of Yuma was in darkness
and without supply of water, as
the plants supplying gas, electricity
and water we're flooded.
A citizens committee was main
tanning order here, Mayor Charles G.
Moore having died of heart failure
during the excitement that prevailed
shortly after the levees gave way.
Business houses on the main
street here were flooded TO q depth
OF four feet by the water and many
of the older buildings were washed
away or badly damaged. Residents
were sent to the hills back from the
river.
BuiIdinga Disappear.
Many OF the oldest buildings in Yuma
have disappeared beneath the flood
waters. II was estimated early tonight
that at least 100 houses had been de-
stroyed.
The Catholic sectory was in danger OF
being carried away at any time ana q
squad of men wero bracins It Aith props
and sandbags. The building Is two stories
in height and constructed OF adobe.
All reports from. the upper Colorado
river tonight stated that the water wal
falling. but the flood here showed no I'm
dications Of receding.
The water tonight was tapping against
the Orders OF the Southern Pacific rail-.
road bridge. but the structure then was
withdrawing the pressure.
Officials Of the reclamation service es-
timsted that from 10000 to 175.oOo cubic
feet Of water was passing this point early
tonisht-the heaviest flood condition evei
recorded hers.
Levee Washed OCT.
At least four miles of the government
ievee was washed oft Just below herr
and the waters have broken over In,
west main canal at several places. which
necessarily must flood the greater part
ie not all. Of the Yuma valley.
Practically every house in the loves
half OF that section was aimost buried
undor the murIgy waters. It was believed
that all the residents escaped.
No estimates Of damage either "a
Yuma or the surrounding country could
be made tonight.
