FLOOD CONDITIONS
ARE GROWING WORSE
Mississippi Valley Experiencing Greut
Damage as Result of Bursting Le
vees and Overflowing Rivers.
New Orleans, April 19.?With con
ditions today In the overflowed terri
tory of the Mississippi river in south
eastern Arkansas, northwestern Mis
sissippi and northern Louisiana stead
ily growing worse, the plight of vic
tims who have been rendered home
less by the rush of the waters from
the breaks In the levees In those dis
tricts Is deplorable. Hundreds of these
have been cared for at the emergency
camps, established along the lines of
the levees at various points but owing
to the inaccessibility of some of the
various points there is much suffering
due to lack of food.
At least 40 small towns have been
Inundated by the muddy waters from
the big stream, and it is certain that
many more will feel the destructive
effect of the most disastrous Hoods in
the history of the valley.
Two boat loads of provisions were
delivered rt Tallulah today. This
partly relieved the food situation, as
supplies had almost been exhausted.
Every street of Tallulah Is deep under
water.
Business and traffic In the Yazoo
delta, which Is being overflowed by
the break at Reulah, Miss., are para
lzyed. Damage to property is incal
culable. Supplies will be sent to Roll
ing Fork and Lei and as long as those
points can be reached. Resides the
six negroes who were drowned near
the Beulah break, It is believed that
others further inland have perished.
No boats have as yet ventured more
than two miles distant, and it will be
some tlmo before It is known if the
list is to be increased.
For the first time since the river
began Its advance not a single point
except New Orelans reported an in
creased gauge at 7 o'clock tonight.
The rise at New Orleans, three-tenths
of a foot, to 20.2 feet, was probably
due to the back up of the water be
fore a strong wind.
Reginning within the ne:;t few days,
according to weather bureau fore
casts, another rise will be recorded at
Vicksburg and all points south, when
the waters which are flowing through
Dog Tall and Beulah breaks return to
the Mississippi through the Red river.
The highest Hoods ever experienced in
tlie latter streams in Louisiana are ex
pected.
