Chicago, Sept. l.-ReRain and
floods throughout the middlewest
which claimed three lives in south.
ern Illinois, threatened today "a
bring 70 oeaGgor3ng proportions crop
losses throughout the storm area.
IN central Illinois the corn crou
was endangered by deluge and agri.
cultural agents deemed it unlikely
ehat the water would recede in time
to permit hot weather to lin n -.
grain.
Iowa, Illinois, Nebraska, Kansas
Indiana and Ohio are within the lim-
its OF the week-long storm which has
brought excessive rainfall, floods and
tornado winds.
There was little promise Of relief
before Sunday. The weather predic-
tion for most Of the areas suffer-
from flood conditions was for cloudy
to unsettled, and thunderstorms and
showers. These conditions prevailed
in Iowa, Illinois, Missouri, western
Indiana and out through Kansas and
Nebraska.
Communication Disrupted
The toll Of the storms, which last
night surpassed their previous fury
OF the week in some sections, could
not be accurately determined, with
communicating lines down, but X
appeared there was small loss Of life.
Three persons are known to have met
depth in Illinois. Property damage
increased, however, as washed out
bridges and railroad tracks were re-
corded with destruction Of farm
buildings.
William Gutxweiler, 80. Of Spring
field. was electrocuted when he
touched live wire blown down dur
ing q squall, and Henry Keil, 18. was
killed by lightning while working In
a field near Bearstown. J.
At Maquon, James Sprinklers, a
highway worker, was drowned. He
had plunged. into the raging stream
to inspect bridge.
While in the central areas the DAM
aging element was the rain which
added to the effects Of deluges Of
few days before, along the Nebraska
Kansas line wind of tornado proper
! tiOns flattened farm buildings. No
deaths were reported in early COM
munications from the region, al
though some areas were entirely cut
off.
Railroads Suffer
Wind Of . similar velocity swept
down near the lllinois-Iowa border
and several railroad cars on q side
track at Duncan, Ill.,. were tossed
from the right-of-way. In sections
of Illinois, Iowa and Missouri. rail
roads abandoned operation entirely
or strOve to continue service by rOut-
ing trains around breaks in the line.
Large areas were inundated in all
three states and miles Of highway
were entirely impassable. While
many cities were inconvenienced by
flooded streets and cellars, others
were fearful Of more serious conse-
quences from streams out of bounds
and swollen by further downpours.

those in charge Of the program for
that event believe that the address
will be Of great interest to the pub
lie. as we'll as to the lawyers assem-
bled here, and have therefore ex-
tended an invitation to the public to
attend this session Of the convention.
The bar association committee feels
quite fortunate in being able to Sc
cure Governor Christianson a. one
Of the speakers. and it IL expected
that the people Of Bismarck and vi
cinity will attend the meeting at the
auditorium in large numbers. The
Minnesota governor is at all times in
great demand for public addresses
within the borders Of his state and
his acceptance Of the invitation to
speak here was gratifying to men,

The 975 prisoners were escorted to
the recreation field within the walls

ficers from several cities and counties
were called upon to prevent any out
break
Prison officials denied reports that
any convicts had escaped and said
there was no disorder after the in
mates had been placed in the recrea-
tion field.
A burning object hurled by a con-
Wet into the ventilating fan is said
by officials to have started the fire
Yesterday afternoon. Shortly after VI

with damage estimated at 100000.
The main building, which was de-
stroyed, was constructed in 1897 when
the prison was established.
