VAST AREA IS
FLOOD SWEPT;
MANY DROWN
Fifty Known Dead, Villages
Inundated by Torrents
in Europe.
BY ROBERT H. BEST


VIENNA, Sept. 26.--More than
fifty persons have been drowned,
and more casualties are feared, in
disastrous floods over a large area
around the Tyrol, embracing por-
tons Of Austria, Germany, Switzer-
land and Italy.
Tremendous cloudbursts, and
warm spell that caused snow to
melt in the mountains, are re-
sponsible.
The floods are the worst since
1866.
Two Of central Europe's most i'm
portant communication lines have
been cut-the Vienna Rail
way. by destruction of a trestle near
Buchs, and the Munich Italy rail-
way, by collapse Of a bridge over
the river Eisack in the Trentino
district of Italy.
Three Months for Repair
Austrian authorities announced
that it would require at least three
months to effect even temporary
repairs, and that trains would de-
tour meantime by day Of Lake
Constance.
In response to the request Of the
ruling Prince of Lichtenstein, the
Austrian government has sent
troops to the Rhine valley to rescue
inhabitants from housetops.
Twenty-Five workers were drowned
when the River Eisack bridge COL
lapsed under train.
Ocolice-Sondrio railway Is inter-
rupted, and grave damage has been
done in the upper Trentino, where
the river Isarco destroyed the rail-
way between Fortezza and Mezza-
selva. Traffic between Fortezza
and the Bremen Pass in the Alps
is interrupted, and traffic between
the Trentino and Austria and Ger
many is being diverted.
Villages Under Water.
The River AIDA flood has caused
nine deaths. The City of Chiavenna
is threatened by the rising of the
River Mera, which has broken its
banks and destroyed several houses.
The village Of Campodolcino is in
undated.
Torrents have broken their banks
near Sondrio. The provincial palace
in the vicinity has collapsed, the
foundations of the projects palace
have been weakened, and the entire
city may be inundated.
Two railwaymen, several other
workers and one woman we're
drowned at the village of Schann,
where water had reached the Sec
ond stories of houses.
Six persons were drowned at
Ghehmnitz.
The town Of Eamsberg In the
FILLER valley is submerged. In
habltantS are living in upper stories
and on roofs of houses.
Two bridges have been destroyed
near Innsbruck, involving the
drowning of two workmen, and 1000
feet of neighboring railway tracks
were torn up.
Damage in the italian tyrol dis
trict has been made worse by the
melting of snow, causing the river
AIDA to overflow between Mordegno
and Sondrio, flooding several towns.

persons, led by the Rev. G. H.
Winders, former head Of the Indi-
annapolis Church Federation, called
on the Governor with a last-min-
ute plea and he informed them of
his decision.
When the message was read to
McCutcheon il the death cell, he
wept profusely, promising Warden
Walter H. DAILY that he would be
a good prisoner" He remained in
the death cell throughout the
night, but was transferred today.
Jackson based his communication
on sse grounds Of youth, bad en-
vjlorment and subnormality.
