'lHE BRAZOS RIVER RUNS WILD.
l‘wo Thousand People Forced to
Trees and on
of the State lnundatcd.
' GALvESTON, July 7.—Jamcs Colli-
Ben, superintendent of machinery for the
Santa Fe railroad, reached Galveston on
the. last through train the road has been
able to run. The Brazos river at Rosen-
berg is running wild, Mr. Collison says,
but with regard to the ultimate damage
he is very optimistic. He thighs the
damages are greatly overcstimatcd and
that the loss to crops in the bottoms will
be counterbalanced by the increased yield
on the uplands. He left at noon on a
special train for the flooded district, car-
rying provisions for the destitute.
At Sunnyside, 12 miles from Brook-
shire, the Brazos river is ordinarily 200
yards wide. About parallel with this
and 2V2 miles away is Elm creek, which
is seldom over 30 feet wide and in mid-
summer Often dry. The two streams were
separated by low bottom lands and are
now united, making a river between five
and six miles wide and front 60 to 70 feet
deep. Along the currents 19 people were
rescued “'cdnesdny in :1 skiff sent from
Houston.
thcir sheds and outhouscs and making
boxes that they used for boats. Cnttle
were found resting their heads in the
boughs of trees, making 11 pitinble strug-
gle for existence. At one point two
houses were seen coming down the
stream. In one of them was a man and
two women, and on the other :1 woman
nud live children were clinging for life
and calling for hclp.
The flood reached the southern part of
the state Sunday night and Monday.
The planters hail received umplc warn-
ing. but many negrocs rcmnined in the
Brnzos valley. believing the water would
not reach higher than in 1885. From
1.500 to 2,000 colored people were caught
in the valley in Austin, \Vuller and Fort
Bend counties and were forced to take to
the trees and house tops. An appeal was
made to Houston for boots. but Houston
had sent nil bouts nvnilnble further up

It is believed that nearly all the people
lodged in trees and on house tops have
been rescued. but the boats sent from
Galveston will patrol the flooded district
and make a thorough search for strug-
glcrs.
The war department has authorized
Governor Snyres to distribute 10,000
nrmy rations among the flood sufferers,
the rations to be furnished the governor
from San Antonio. In addition to the
war department rations Houston and
Galveston have sent several curloads of
groceries into the flooded district. It is
believed there is new food enough in
transit to feed the negroes 'until the wa—
ters rccede and they can return to plan-
tntion work.

strongly convinced that Sir Thomas will

and :1 bad, lumpy sea, with dirty rain
squalls, made the conditions anything
but ideal for yacht racing.
In windward work the Columbia. with
