A SOT'TIIKItX CATASTItlll'IIH.. Ni:\v OUM'ANS, May 10.—It is I r:i it'll from Capt. ih: I.ahoussaye, who passed there Monday afternoon, that the great Morganza levee, in 1'oinU- Coupee parisli—the biggest levee in Louisiana— broke during the rainstorm, in eovse([uenee the great pressure of the swollen river against it. The levee is
!25
feet lii !i. from
This levee broke ill 185-t and cawed SKI,000.000 of damage, cutting down tne sugar crop of the state materially. It was partially broken in 1S00. but ennug!i of it was held then to reduce the amount of damage. The United Stale!) government assisted in rebuilding it both times.
Until soiuethimg more is learned of the extent of the break it is impossible to make any estimate of the possible loss, but ill view of the high condition of the river the dtitnage is ex peeled to be very large. The crevasse, if as serious as is feared, will stop tlie Southern Pucilic and tin! Texas and Pacilic railroads in a few days.
At midnight the crevasse was 400 feet wide, and the water, 8 feet in depth, was rushing through with appalling force. 1IU rive Cliildrrn Killed.
KANSAS CITY. MO., May 10.—C. 1!. Wilkin*, a colored farmer, lived at Anthony, Kail., in a dugout, together with his wife aud live children. The heavy rain of the last few days loosened tin1 earth so that it caved in, killing all Jive of tlie children and fatally wounding Mrs. Wilkins. The husband escaped with a broken leg and sprained back.

Clet)Alt HAI-IDS, la., May 10.—It lias been raining l(ere almost continuously for the last thirty-six hours.' Farmers, who were already far behind with their work, are almost discouraged. There has been not less than 12 or ,14 inches of rain in the last two weeks and the ground is soaking. The roads an in an almost impassable condition and the eitv is threatened with a wood famine, as farmers cannot get into town.
Not uu Acre of Corn l*luiiUt.
Til's MOINES, la., May 10.—ft has been raining in central Iowa sinee Sunday afternoon. A large amount of water has fallen ami the farming prospects are correspondingly gloomy. Not an acre Tf corn has been planted and hardly any plowinghas been done. The only crop that is succeeding is grass and that is doing remarkably well. Wheat and oats, what little weve planted, be gin to look yellow on all the lower lands. Reports all agree that fanners are losing courage and unless there is a sudden change in the weather a great deal of the land will remain unplanted this year.-

little change for the better in the llood situation here- The river fell about it inches Monday and enabled the St. Louis, Keokuk it Northwestern trains to run through from St. Louis via Keo-ki-k us usual. The train- are all late. In wever. aud trainmen report that they hail to plow through feet of water at Alexandria, Mo. Y-ord from that modern Venice says tne situation is no better and not much worse. People are still hovering about on highlands, filled with sad forbodings of a summer of yellow ague. It rained off aud on all Monday, and tlio pros pects in tins country are still of the gloomiest aspect. The situation is be coming alarming to both fanners and business men. The Turlington officials say their Iowa lines are once more in excellent shape.

(IESKSEO, 111., May 10.—It has rained here for many hours and fanners are greatly discouraged. The most valu able corn lands along Rock and (irecti rivers are from ." to 5 feet under water. The -1,000-aere farm 11 miles Cast of here, owned by Samuel W. Allerton, of Chicago, is all under ivater. Eighty-five acres of corn on this farm are from :i to 8 feet under water. No corn can be raised on tlie river bottoms this year and thousands of acres of fine liny lands have been ruined, farmers on these bot toms are in worse luck than they have been in twenty years.
More Itfilim in the Illinois Valley JACKSONVILLE, HI., May 10.—There is
great suffering from high water along tlur Illinois river bottoms, which com prise some of the tinest land in this district. Another tremendous rain fell Sunday night and the river rose several Inches and shows no sign! of falling. Heavy losses all along the river are reported.

The greatest havoc litis been created in the "squatter" settlement called "Oklahoma," half a mile In-low the Merchant's bridge. Here dozens of house boats nud cabins formerly the shore are either half under water or floating down the river. The lumber yards along the. riverfront are in danger of changing owners, while the steamer lines centering here find uo room on the levee to store their surplus freight when their ivharfboats overliow. No serious damage has yet been reported, but the. river is at the danger line,

It is evident that Deeming lias not the slightest hope that his appea) l'or a fur* ther inquiry into lm mental conditio!! will avail him to escape hanging'. The condemned murderer on Monday confessed to a clergyman that he Killed bin wife at Windsor.
MuriR*r of ICintly Mather.
Deeming- eoufessed that be made four attempts to murder Emily Mather. The first Qitcmpt was made in London shortly after their marring?. The second attempt was made at ueotTee house in Melbourne. Two other attempts were made in Andrew street, Windsor. Three weeks after taking the house In Windsor he tried to cut his wife's throat while she slept, but she awoke and thwarted him. On the following night, at o'clock in the morning, he awoke und found hia wife peeling an apple with a large clasp-knife, lie seized this weapon and with it cut her throat. He then fled from the house, terrified at what he had done in obedience to his mother's spirit. At daybreak lie found himself on the pier at St.' Kilda. Here he found a man lishing and gave him £10 to bury the body. He know nothing of how the woman had been buried until he heard of it in western Australia. IIo cannot account for the purchase of the cement beforehand nor for the wounds on his wife's head. He
says that sometimes be. was not himself.". The ltain Hill Crimea.
He repeats the story that "Old lien"' is the man to whom at Kain Hill, he ulleges, he gave £50 to procure the disnppeuranee of his first wife. He asserts that Emily Mather finally committed the Rain Hill murders. A knife found iu his luggage agrees with the description of the clasp knife he was known to possess.
Still Claims Infinity.

When he was 12 years old and again when he was 10 he was, according to his story, confined in asylums.
