Damage Incalculable and Thousands Made Penniless by a Dig Freshet. Kooknk, la., July 10.?The Hood conditions of yesterday were much wopse today and the Mississippi river is from two to ton miles wide for 75 miles bolow Keokuk and is raising rapidly. The flood is reaching far outlying farms, hitherto missed, and furmoro in fkn 1 n n. 1 1 11 a ?<1V1 O ?U UIU lUWIrtllUlj U 11 lii0 Missouri side have lost everything. Damage is also occurfng on the Illinois side, between here and Quincy, where tfiere are many thousand acred of riverside levees and where the levees themselves are not entirely efficient, the water is working through at the site of the floodgates. The greatest damage is on the Missouri side of the Mississippi river, between Keokuk and Hannibal, territory covering 300 square miles, and on which the corn was estimated at 80 bushels to the acre a few days ago. Hundreds of farmers are tenants,who lost crops by last year's drought in the uplands and moved to the lowlands this year. They are now penniless and hunting work in fnn>n. . - .1 -ii.1 * ' uunun miu uuhh, rteporis ioaay are that in the territory indicate the loss will be over $4,000,. 000, chiefly to corn land and in splendid condition previously. The damage done along the Mississippi river is greater than was expected or at first reported. One township in this county, Green Bay, is six or seven feot under water. It contains more than 11,000 acres of crops. Families there were driven out hurriedly and some cattle were drowned. Corn was the finest 111 huh eecnon or the country last week. The levee eight miles north of Burlington broke, inundating three square miles that had been considered safe. The Skunk river, the most damaging tributary of the Mississippi, is roaring down with a flood approached, but twice in the history of the State, in 1S51, ai?u 1892. The water topped the record of 1892 and touched ho highest record of 1851. This river rises in the centre of Iowa and empties into tho Mississippi 25 miles north of Iveokuk and greatly increases the tlood at points below. In the interior Iowa towns on the Dos Moines and Skunk rivers were surprised by the rapid rise and there is much excitement. It was believed that the recession for the flood of the first three days of the week removed all danger and people returned to ordinary conditions.

The damage already caused along the lowlands by the Hoods will he hut a drop in the bucket compared with the loss it the water shall rise one toot higher. Rivermen say there is no possibility ol the water receding in the next .'10 hours. Today the river stood 20.5 feet above the low water mark and it is rising at the rate of half an inch an hour.

July contracts created great excitmeet on short on the board of .trade today and July oats soared to 65c., the highest price since 1S74. This point marked a gain for the day of 7 3 4 cents, and of 15 cents for three days.

The American liner St. Louis from Southampton and Cherbourg also reported having sighted the Low. The little boat exchanged colors with the big liner on July IS in latitude 41.34 north, longitude 55.35 west. The two occupants seemed to be in the best of spirits and waived their ran* to the ofticers and passengers of the St. Louis. Capt.

President Palma taid : "It American syndicates have nought all our cigar lactone- and considerable land, besides a number of smaller estates, it is because if faith in the economic future of 3uba. Moreover Senor Ierry, tvho is a planter, admits that a price of three reals per 25 pounds >f sugar ofTer6 a profit, which hough not very great, makes it vorth while for these to cultivate ?ugar who can avail themselves if the methods. Furthermore, tve are approaching a day when lugar bounties will be suppressed and when Cuban sugar will be able to compete with the European product, and there are besides favorable symptoms of reciprocity with the United States. With these reasons as a basis, we may hope that the economic tuture of Cuba will soon improve. When once the economic problem is solved, the political situation will not present difficulties. The inexperienced regarding official organization is compensated for by :he good sense of the people. Annexatien is not the way to save Cuba, as it will not come svhen the present population ot 3uba would benefit by i?. but when the Americans choose? hat is, when the influence exerjised by the Latin element in Duba shall have ceased.
