 Bryan rel orted today that the flood waters of the Little river have overrun the levees all .nroE.h Milan county and were still rising. The Brazos also is out of its banks, and the whole lowlands for a distance of 30 miles extending up into Milan county is flooded. The famers were entirely unprepared for the flood, as the river was normal Saturday night.
 At daybreak this morng the flood waters from the Little r.ver came rushing down through the Brazos bot toms and over into the BraZos river, and at 3oclock this afternoon had exceeded all previous known stages. The rivers still were rising, and now are higher than for 70 years, if not

TEXAS FLOODS
 SWEEP 10000
 SQUARE MILES
Huge Area is Inundated by Many Swollen Streams.
DEATH LIST GROWING
Late Reports Tell of Fatalities And Ruin at Many Points.

Houston. Texas. Sept. 11.-With communication into the central Texas flood district being re-established, loss of life and property damage as a result of Friday nights great deluge mount steadily. Today it was definitely established than at area extending north as far as George town, south to San Antonio and be- low, west to San Marcos, east to Gal vert and Bryan, or approximately 10000 square miles, already has felt the effect of flood waters. About eight more lives. mostly tenants in the low lands, are known to be lost, with a possibility of this being increased when more accurate reports are avail able
 Property loss is almost beyond esti- mate. It is estimated that the loss to growing crops which were borne away uopn the crest of the waters as they rushed stadily toward. the gulf may run into the millions of dollars Live stock will account for hundreds of thousands of dollars more, while tenant houses, fences and outhouses, with few dwellings, probably will run into the tens of thousands.
 Georgetown, in Williamson county, reports the loss of two dead and three missing, with property damage of around $500,000. The dispatch which was sent yesterday but de- layed, says the storm was the worst in years, with 16 inches rainfall in 24 hours. All streams are out of bounds, the message says, and cattle and cotton in the lowlands are total loss.

From Lockhart comes message of night of terror Friday with great damage to farm crops and many dwellings and live stock com pletely washed away. Residents as rule were warned, and made the high spots before the deluge struck, preventing any loss of life
 Taking all previous reports into cOnsidera ton, it is safe to say that hundreds of square miles of central Texas have sustained irreparable loss from hoods, and that more southern sections are now menaced by the on rushing waters.
 The San Marcos river is on q ram- page, according to message from Duling, which said that yesterday the waters already were higher than for many years and still rising. The mes sage added that much baled cotton has been washed away and that ,outbuild- ings and several dwellings on the banks of the river went down with the current Damage to ungathred crops has been almost complete in that sec tion.

The treasury's new regulations GOV,

bitiOn Commissioner Haynes, the pre-
scription rules, which have been IN

that maximum will be maintained.
On the other hand. internal revenue

frequency of alcoholic medicines, but
not both. The question from the stand

Judge Thayer, From Bench.

To Aid Two Italians
PLEAS WORDED ALIKE
Motion For New Trial Taken
Under Amusement; Court
Is Heavily Guarded

DEDHAM, Mass, Nov 5. - Judge
Webster Thayer tonight denounced
from the bench. as bold attempt to
interfere with the administration OF
the law, messages he had received
from all PARTS of the country urging
n new trial for Nicola Sacco and Bar
tholomeo Vanzetti, convicted of a dou'
BILE murder at South Braintree last
year, and the subjects of radical DEM
onstrations in two hemispheres.
In the Norfolk counts superior
court. heavily guarded by state con-
stabulary and special details of coun-
ty sheriffs and police, Judge Theyar
took under advisement the motion for
a new trial for the convicted men
and announced he had granted de-
fense counsel until Tuesday to file q
supplementary petition alleging ire
gularity in the jury room during the
trial
Then he made, his statement Since
the conviction of the two, he said. he
had received kilograms and letters
from througbout the United States.
signed by organizations and individ-
uals, calling on him to grant the mo-
tion for re-trial.
THE first few" ha said, were
worded alike. / recall that one came
from Colorado and one from East
Cambridge in this state. There was
a great deal of similarity in the word
ing of all.
"The only question before the court
is a review of evidence which was
considered by Jury. No person
should interfere with the adninistra-
tion of the law. Suppose friends OF
the murdered men should flood me
with letters and kilograms asking tnaf
these defendants be not granted new
trial, that would be improper influ-
ence brought to bear on the court.
1t would be unfair to the defendants.
"In other words, the messages l
have received asking new trial con-
stitute bold attempt to interfere
with the administration of the law
and an attempt to prejudice the mind
cf the court against fair review OF
the evidence"
