WEATHER Plague Raging In Russ Capital LEINGRAD—Spotted typhus has broken out in this storm swept city, adding its horrors to the flood. Over a hundred cases of the dis ease are being registered dally and doctors and nurses are overwhelm ed in the work of caring for the patients. One of the most gruesome as pects of the flood was tho havoc wrought in the cemeteries where newly made graves were washed out by the avalanche of water and the bodies floated away in the streets. The dangers of the. pestil ence are very great and the author ities are taking stringent measures to check the spread of the disease. Although the population is still suf fering grievously from the effects of last Tuesday's storm the city Is gradually returning to its normal calm. Seventy-four out of 103 state factories have resumed operations and the government has appointed M.

A great part of the priceless collections of paintings, tapestry and antiquities of the museum Alexander 111 was destroyed, 250 cases of art ob jects having been removed from tlie water while 50 cases are still soak ing. perhaps irreparably damaged.
