inundated to a depth never known
before. The highways were covered
in many instances with a foot of
water and breaks and washouts at
Bacon and Smith mills caused the
closing of both the State highway
and the Whitesville road. Our
sewers could not take care of the ex-
cess rainfall and as a result our
streets and gardens were flooded
several hours before the rain ceased.
A series of dams, including Morris,
Woottep, Ellis, Tresham and Hitch
were washed out, and great anxiety
is felt for the safety of the Records
dam at Laurel. Much damage was
done to railroad property also, the
break at Roque's pond being the
most serious. The outstanding loss
to date however is the break in the
highway at LeoIfard's mill, between
Delmar and Salisbury, where the en-
tire roadbed was undermined and
section of concrete $50 feet long fell
into the raging waters. The gas
main was also broken at this point
and residents of Delmar and vicinity
were without gas until temporary
repairs could be made.

Squadron of Dutch War. ships Expect to Come
 Up With Them Some
 Time To-day

The Hague, Feb e-(UP)--A squadron of Dutch warships over hauling mutlneers aboard tho cruiser Dc zeven Provincien was ordered today to "clear tho decks
 1t was understood the govern ment would demand tho unoondi- tional surrender of the mutinous native seamen' who seized the ship Sunday and have been chased through Sumatran waters ever since.
 The mutineers threatened Co open fire on one pursuing govern ment vessel, not n warship, unless the craft dropped back to a safe distance. A squadron of modern fighting ships steamed from the Celebes Sea to intercept tho 20- year-old cruiser, while soaplanea secuted and reported It's movement to Vice Admiral Osten, in command of the East Indies fleet.
 Admiral Osten, on orders from the government, was expected to ignore wireless messages sent from tho cruiser outlining the mutineers' surrender terms, which included uDcrty IOr HVV uuttNo Vutotcu Hut' arrested at Sourabaya, Java, Tor protests against recent wage cuts.
 The mutineers sent out another message to the world press" early today.
 we will surrender In conformity with our earlier message" 1t said. "Please inform high authorities that thore are no communist lead. CTS and that no violence ia lntend- ed. We only protest wage cuts and the arrest of our comrades. Every thing aboard is all right, there arc no casualties, and service iS pro- ceedlng ns usual"
 Admiral Oston's squadron was expected to encounter tho cruiser today near southern Sunda strait or off the southern Sumatra coast, Although De Zeven Provlnclen is old, 1t carries 11-inch guns, Ad- miral osten therefore decided to uso tho most modern ships avnil- able, although less modern craft wero stationed nearer to tho run away cruiser.
