A SUMMARY OF FLOODCONDITIDNS Losses In The South Caro lina and Georgia Flooded Sections. ATLANTA, Ga. —Wire and railroad communication have been established with Augusta. About seventy-flvv lives reported lost in flooded district; 16 bodies recovered In city of Au gusta Oreat scarcity of water report ed. Also suffering from lack of food. Reports from Augusta and the cit ies and towns with which communi cation by wire Is direct, show no in-' crease in property loss, and it is be lieved will not exceed two and a half million dollars, including destroyed railroad tracks and bridges. Damage to crops and to land from the heavy rains which washed gul lies through them will undoubtedly be enormous, but there is no pos sible way to get information upon which to base an estimate. Added to this is the loss of cattle and stock on the farms along overflowed streams. Rumors that another storm is at* preaching Central Georgia and parts of North and Suth Carolina proved untrue tonight. All these sections re corded normal weather conditions to night. Columbus, Ga., Issued a proclama tion for a mass meeting oi citizens tomorrow for the purpose of aiding the flood sufferers in Augusta. A number of other cities have tak en similar steps. All danger seems to have been passed in the Carolinas and in Geor gia, except at Kingville, S. C., where water apparently is rising rapidly to night. The sit nation at Augusta seems to have passed the crisis, the loss of Iffe there will probably reach twenty live in the city and vicinity. The streets of Augusta are being cleaned rapidly. A number of buildings have collapsed but this damage has not resulted In the loss of life. Possibly a. million dollars has been lost in North and South Carolina be cause of the high water. The loss of life is comparatively small In (hose states, warnings having been given before the great sweep of wa ter shot over the cities. Most of the dead are negroes. Negro cabins flanking the river banks and setting in the lowlands were washed away like so much drift wood. The water rose so rapidly that many of the occupants of these cab ins never had a chance to even es cape from the rooms in which they slept This afternoon a relief train of sev eral cars left this city for Augusta, The suffering was reported intense among the poorer classeß whose homes were swept away. The Laurens railroad has also suf sered considerably, hut there is no j wav of getting at the exact figures at I thi* time. In Chester county, through which the Catawba river runs, the rains and damage therefrom is the greatest ever known. In Abbeville, Anderson, Spartan burg, Cherokee. ! T nton. GSrenville, Laurens. Vnlon. Kershaw and other : counties railroad and county have been washed away, country roads greatly damaged, and In some i inslance* crops have been almost ; totally ruined. In the above counties a number o( ' cotton mill* and power plants and ; other Industries situated along rivers I have sustained Immense losses. Another source of great loss Is that brought about by the washing : off of farm lands, the top soils being FURNITURE RENOVATING ****■*■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■» W ill soon begin and you will need the necessities for the work.

The Columbia canal which fur nislPes power to a number of enter prises along the river front will have to be drained in order to repair the breaks.

Certainly the example has been set in high quarters. Queen Al exandra and her hand of nurses ha-.li long since become world famed, while not a year passes without visits of her majesty to the hospitals. The Empress Marie Feodorovna has never spared in foatering works of charity of all kinds. Queen Oiga of Greece is another royal woman who has emulated Queen Alex andra and the Empress Marie in then labors of love. Paris has a police wonder whose intelligence, ability and skill in find ing malefactors and courage in as sault has provoked rapturous plaudits.
