RESISTLESS FLOODS
Sweep Away the Barrien Raised at East St. Louis and Swamp tha Town. XNOWH LOSS OF LIFE IS ELEVUN Hay Be Xlore When All the Missing Are Accounted For. Ilalf the City Is a Big Lake and the Other Half Is Threatened with Inundation Kansas Flood Sufferers. St. Louis, June 11. Almost twothirds of the ter.itory embraced by East St Louis, 111., is under from tuo to fifteen feet of -water. Iietween twilight Tuesday nisht and ilsivrn yesterday eleven lives were sacrificed to the anirry waters. r.nd damajre which no man attempts to estimate lias been done to ftroperty. Those who were likelv to have knowledge which would cn- j able them to fo m a ron?h estimate, when questioned, pointed out over the broad expanse of destructive water a Cd ahüost invariably replied: "Look! It's awful,' and turned away. The town was demoralized, and wiih reason. Tried Hard to Save the Town. .Irobably never before In the history of the count; y has a mere valiant tight Ik en made to protect lives and property from the devastating clutches of a tremendous flood than has been made by the citizens of East St. Louis. "When the rising, spreading, Mississippi began to threaten the city last Thursday morning Mayor Silr.s Cook ordered men to wo.k'to construct sand bag levees at once. The river rose higher and higher hourly, and more men were employed. The river still itirged higher, and all laborers procurable were set to work upon the levee, and citizens of th best classes worked elbow to elbow with the laLoitrs. - Result Ii Ualf a lie feat. Since Thursday morning 5.000 men tinder the leadership of Mayor Cook, with Mttle sleep, with little rest, and food snatched at Intervals, toiled unceasingly strengthening levees, build- , lug them up, erecting additional safeguards, and doing everything in the power of man to save the city. Hut f it was a fight that has so far terminated half in victory and half in defeat. Not a wheel of industry is turning in East St. Louis. The ast railroad yards a:e made apiarent by hundreds of half-submerged ears, and here and tliere stand locomotives only half visible. Huge frrain elevavors stand ßUTOunded by a veritable &?a. Workmen's Domes Submerged But to the south, beyond the railWay yard, area, are thousands of Lomes, the jrreater number cottages owned by laborers and containing their all, submerged to the eaves. In northern East St. Louis the description Is repeated, but not on so large a scale. The bnsiners portion of the city, and the district containing the better residences are still Intact. "L'ut for how Jong?" Is the question begin repeated in the mind of every citizen. BROADWAY BARS TUE FLOOD Embankment tbe Street Is Ballt On Saves "Mf the Town. Broadway, running from Eads bridge east to the limits, a wide stieet built of sand and walled with stone, fifteen feet high, divides the city in halves. Over ten feet of wat'er is pressing against Broadway from the sout! and in many places Is seeping through. Traffic over certain portions of the thoroughfare has been piohibited, and even pedestrians are not allowed to traverse those threatened portions. If Broadway breaks the water will rush over much of the city until Missouri avenue, running parallel one block north, is encountered. Along the river front to the west a levee of sandbags from two to six feet high and two miles long , keeps the river out, . - All day scores of skin's were busy rescuing people from submerged houses. In the eastern extremity of the city, at. Washington Place and Rock road, where there' Is a vacant area of many squares on high ground covered with grass, 200 tents were utilized in erecting Camp Refuge. With unflagging energy Mayor Cook, who has passed -through flood experiences at Shawneetown, I1L, where he formerly lived, and knows how to deal with high water, urged the laborers to work upon the temporary levees in the fear that a possible rise during the night might further Inundate the :ity. . That an absolute rise was taking place in the river was proved by the St Louis gauge marking 37:93 feet, which is a rise of 02 feet above the mark set Tuesday. Riot guns have been collected and given out to guards to patrol the streets where hundreds of dollars worth of furniture ia stacked, and to patrol the sandbag levees, and any thieves or possible levee cutters are to be shot down Instantly. WAS A TERRIFYING NIGHT Awful Apprehension Prevails In Town Käme of the Dead. Tuesday night was the most terrifying in the -history of East St. Louis since the tornado of 180G. The river suddenly began jrising; as suddenly a new danger menaced.. Word was received that the Illinois Central embankment skirting the river along the southern boundary of the city, was threatening to give way. Couiiers were cent on horseback and afoot to shout warnings to the Inhabitants of the southern half of the city, and hundreds of laborers and citizens hastened to the embankment. Pufflng engines rushed car loads of sandbags to the place and work was hurriedly begun. Accustomed by this time to warnings -Of Impending danger the inhabitants did not leave their homes. Higher and higher crept the water, until a thin ;trcam bejan pouring over the em-bsr-nrrt, and then It broke.
The alarm spread like wild-fire and whistles were blown, bells rung, shots fired, and cries of warning were sounded; but even with all this pandemonium, the majority of the aroused in habitants failed to leave their homes. The water rushed onward .and within an hour the water was ten feet deep. What gave the most concern v.as the missing. There were comparatively lew refugees to be found, while there were dozens of cottages submerged to their roofs, and from which no sign of life had been observed, while none of the refugees were the recent occupiers. In other words nothing could be ascertained as to the fate of the people who had gone to sleep In those cottages Tuesday evening. It has been practically impossible to learn of authenticated deaths, but from what were apparently reliable sources the Associated Trtss has gathered that the following eleven persons were drowned Tuesday night, four of whom perished on the north side early in the evening: John Koolish and three children, drowned on north side; unknown baby E. II. Sherwood, Lawrence Day, two unknown women, one unknown man and one unknown colored lalorer. The deaths of John Koolish, a Polish carpenter, and his three children, were caused by trying to save three kegs of Leer The Koolish home had been sur
rounded by water for several days, and the family concluded to move to dry land. The wife and three children were safely landed at one irip and the next trip he took on board his other three children and started to land. En route he stopped at the request of a neighbors to take on board three kegs of beer frcm a submerged house. Getting their, aboard the skiff was capsized and the drownings were the result.

But His Majority Lacks Many of tha Conservatives of the Commons. LIBERALS AND v3B OH HIS EIDE Favoring the "Open Mind" in the Cabinet, Gladstone Precedents Being Back Thereof. London, June 11. When Joseph Chamberlain, secretary for the colonies, in behalf of his policy of imperial fede.ation. declaied a few weeks ao for souie modification of the British free trade policy that would make the British empire more like the Unit ed States as to trade betwceit the different commonwealths, he stated that it was j; matter that wanted long and careful discussion, and would require a mandate f;om the British people, before any action of the kind could be taken. This was ajrreed to by Premier Balfour, avLo said that he and Chamberlain were in perfect accord. Attack on "Jo" Chamberlain. The opportunity for an attack on Chamberlain by the Liberals was too pood to let o by, and it bejran in parliament Monday. Fiee trade is not a political issue in tJreat Britain it is a national policy; Conservatives, Liberals, Radicals all parties agree that it is the only policy worth considerIn?, and many believe that it should never be abandoned. Chamberlain and Balfour are not of these, but the balance of the cabinet is; so that in the debate cabinet members were among the most vij;o:ous in their denunciation of the proposed new departure and it was a rather unpleasant time for the premier and Chamberlain. Balfour KIe to Respond The opposition wind blew steadily for two days, and demands were hotly made that Balfour should announce the cabinet's policy. Finally he responded, and was loudly cheered as he lose, and he had a' great audience. Jjjjhamberlaiu was present, and was received with ironical cheers by the free trade "or death" men. In a whimsical vein Balfour explained that the only reason that the corn tax was put on was because the government wanted ,money, and the only reason it was taken off was because the government wanted money no longer. lie declared that he himself, though a believer in free trade (which statement met with loud applause), did not regard it as a fetish, and he had absolutely an open mind regarding the necessity for any alterations in a system which was founded to suit conditions of fifty years ago. KALI Ol II NOT LACKING IX SPINE Will Kot lie Hurried nd Draal Precedent! from the Liberal Idol. lie refused not only to make a statement of any finality upon such an important question, but he also lefused o compel his colleagues to conform to a standard of opinion upon winch he himself bad an open mind. lie admitted that differences of opinion existed within the cabinet, but these were not serious enough to cause tng resignation of any member. lie enforced this by the precedents of friction in Gladstone's ministeries, and insisted on allowing the premier to re tain an open mind upon a question sq difficult and eo superior to all party Issues. The country was confronted, the premier said, by th'ree gre?t henomena: huge tariff-walls against the United Kingdom, the growth of the trusts, and the desi.e of the colonies for closer fiscal union with the mother country. These factors could not be ignored.. He maintained that the method of tarting a public discussion was the only way to deal with .these phenomena, though he did not commit himself to Chamberlain's more qdvanced programe. It would be folly and rashness, he said, to interfere with the rreat system which had been in operation for so many 3-ears without the most careful examination. This speech, made with all tbe eloquence and magnetism which Dalfour wields so successfully, for an. open mind not only in the cabinet but in the Unionists' party, brought a constant salvo of cheers. , Throughout Chamberlain sat beside the leader Of the house, beaming with satisfaction. lie said: Our friend, the enemy, is nonplussed this time. When the vote was taken on the resolution that formed the subject of debate the government was supported by a majority of S90 votes, followers of the government composing most of the minority, and some Conservatives not voting. WaUnn Couldn't Give Ball. Washington, June 11. James M. A. Watson, the clerk'in the auditor's office of the.
