FifTK-FC'J.V FEET OF WATER M THE CUFE mi m RISING. WEATHER MAN SAYS IT WILL GO TO 68 FEET AND MAYBE ' MORE. J All th River Valley Flooded and Great Damage Done. From Wednesday' Daily. At 3:30 o'clock this afternoon the guage In the Cape Pear river showed that the water was 64 feet high, and at that hour rising at .the rate of. 8 Inches an hour. 'The water Is now within 6 feet of the Clarendon bridge and It it continues at the present rate through this afternoon ana to-night, the bridge will be flooded for the first time in history and probably washed away.' The great Prohibition freshet, when the water rose to 58 feet 8 Inches, on Friday, May 24, 1901, and to within two feet of the Clarendon bridge, holds the record at present. Large quantities of driftwood are still coming down the river and as heavy rains are continuing above here, It Is not at all improbable that the freshet now on will be a record break er. All the Cape Fear River Valley from here to Wlje Oak, In Bladen county, (and beyond) is flooded, and thous ands of acres of cotton and corn are under water. Conservative estimates place the average damage so far to crops throughout the county at 30 per cent. Every creek and stream in the county is enormously swollen, and hundreds of small bridges have been washed away. Cross Creek Is rapidly backing up from the Cape Fear and the water has already covered Hawley's bridge and the Cool Spring street bridge, where the water is up Judge Sutton's yard. The following telegram was received this afternoon from the Government Weather Bureau in Raleigh: Raleigh, N. C, Aug. 26th, OS. Frank Glover, Fayettevllle, N. C: The Cape Fear River will rise to fifty-eight feet. The rain will continue to-night and probably tomorrow. The T shaped bridge over Big Rock fish, near Ardlussa was Boating at 1:30, with the water still rising and every indication that the bridge will be swept away. The dam at Hope Mills Xo. 3 was swept away about noon and grave fears are felt for the two dams (f Hope Mills No. 1 and Xo. 2 below iL The 8. A. L. bridge over the Wa teree was washed away this morning. carrying all the Postal Cable wires and the railroad wires with it. The Western Union wires are all under the Cape Fear river south of Godwin Prominent farmers from all parts of the county, who are In town to-da; attending court, say that the present rainfall is far in excess of a::y;hing they remember, and that the damage to crops, land, etc., in this county !s enormous. branch of the A. C. L. alone are run ning on schedule time. The train from Wilmington reach ed the steel bridge, which spands the river In Campbellton, and there It remains, unable to proceed across on account of the great train of coal cars, which were placed on it to aid In re sisting, the force of the great flood This train of steel cars, all loaded with coal. Is estimated to weigh three and quarter million pounds. ""' North-bound'passenger' train No. SO arrived here at one o'clock, and is held here until it can be ascertained it It is safe .to proceed. The new steel bridge on the main line of the Cape Fear, two miles from this cltj-vls piled high With togs and trashand its safe ty is by no means assured. All trains on the Raleigh & South- port were annulled yesterday, and remain so. At 4 o'clock, passenger train- No. 80 was still held here, with little pros pects of getting away soon. The track beyond the steel bridge is flooded for great distance, and no trains from the north will be able to much heri this afternoon or to-night, and all trains from the south are, of course, likewise blocked. Many Houses Surrounded by Water. Fram Wednesday's Daily. The waters of both Cross and Blount creeks are backed way up into their respective parts of the city, especial!'' Cross Creek, and many houses arc waste deep in water. Mayor Bullard s house can only be reached by a batteau. Dr. Marsh's res idence stands like an island partly sub merged in an inland sea. The flood has driven both families from their homes, and many other houses are in the same predicament. The water is gradually creeping up on Judge Sut ton's residence, which stands on a igh hill on the banks of Cross Creek. and has already passed the big oak tree on his lawn. Only two bridges, out ot the large number that cross these creeks, are now passible. Eccles' bridge on Green street, and the railroad bridge cn Rus sell street. The dam at the Merchants Mill is completely covered, and the waters backed over Eccles' Park, and as far up and beyond Mason street as far up and beyond Ma-son street and surround the Masonic Lodge. The old knitting mill building on Cool Spring street i-about to be swamped by the flood, the wai -r being way up above the .second story. THE CAPE FEAR RISES TO HEIGHTS UNDREAMED OF ALREADY SURPASSED THE PRO HIBITION FRESHET BY FIVE FEET. It la Called The "Bryan Flood.' Frow Thursday's Dally. At 3 o'clock this afternoon there wa. 63 feet of water in the Cape Fear river, with a rise in progress of four inches to the hour. It is impossible to tel what the limit wUl be, but the indica tions are that it will "not reach ove sixty-five feet. With the water now at 63 feet, the Prohibition freshet 1901 with its record-breaking mark of . 58.8, is left far behind. The Clarendon bridge, for the first time in ita history, is submerged in water, and the water is within a few Inches of the tracks on the steel bridge of the Atlantic Coast Line, a few hun dred yards below. This bridge is weighted down with a string of hear lly loaded steel coat cars, and Is like ly to remain in tact. The Clarendon bridge, too, is holding its own surpriz ingly well, with little Indications ot its giving away, though, if the water rises ' a few feet more, it may be flooded andJ t swept away. ' . . The river Is almost over the enor mously high banks in Campbellton while, where it can find an outlet, such as the creeks that enter it in Camp bellton,' and the Clarendon bridge, it - Saa spread out far to the eastward covering miles ot land, and surround ing many houses. From Cedar Creek to Dawson's Landing, a distance 15 miles, the waters have spread out j. to the eastward, a distance of a mile or more. - ; . The damage to crops Is beyond estl- nation at present, but it is enormous. - ' LATER. ', ' At 4 o'clock the Cape Fear Is still rising at the rate ot 3 inches an hour. Hops Mills No. 2 Flooded. At Hope Mills No. 2, on Big Rock Osh, the water is backed over the great concrete dam, and, now stands four feet deep in the weave and quill rooms. It will be a week or more after the water subsides, before the ma chinery can be adjusted, and the fac tory started up again. All the wooden bridges in the coun ty have been either swept away or are floating, but the. steel bridges over Lock's Creek and Little River are still Btandlng. The steel bridges in Har nett county at Lillington and Duke are reported as swept away. Traffic on Railroads Practically at Standstill. '' .Railroad traffic over all lines run ning into this city Is practically at H'simlstlll, or where an attempt Is be "; m:nU 1o run the trains are greatly . v.M. - ., - -, t aint on the- BenneUsvllle REEKS BACKED. UP IN THE CITY. GREAT DISASTER WROUGHT BT FLOOD. THE CAPE FEAR HAS RISEN SEVENTY FEET, AND IS STILL RISING. TO A Large Portion of the Water. City Under From Friday's Daily. Sherman Freshet, 185556 Populist Freshet, 189557 Prohibition Freshet, 1901 58.8 Present Freshet 70 feet, still rising. Little did we or our readers sus pect, when the Observer went to pres3 yesterday afternoon, that the flood, bad as it was at that time, would reach the tremendous proportions to which It has now obtained, with the might river, still slowly but surely creeping up into the heart of the city. At 3 o'clock this afternoon, at least one hundred bouses are entirely sub merged in water, while hundreds more are surrounded with water, waist -deep in scores of them'. All lower Fayette ville, from the old Flour Warehouse to the river, three quarters of a mile distant, and then across the river, for in -some places a distance of a mile, is flooded, and the only means of trans portation is by boat Boats are plying as far np as Capt. W. A. Robeson's res idence on Person street, three quar ters of a mile from the river channel. We say channel, for the river itself Is far np Into the city. Campbellton, of course, is the worst sufferer, and in this great territory hundreds of houses an partially sub merged, while a number have disap pea red under the water entirely. The flood area, with the Clarendon bridge as. the centre. Is at least two miles square, while In some directions on the east side of the river, its ex tent is as yet unknown, as no one can reach the limits, and the country a tar as the eye ean see is one vast Jake. Hundreds of people have been forced to flee from their, homes and seek shelter higher up in the city. Yesterday afternoon and' all through last night every available boat in this section was being used in carrying peo ple from their homes,-who as mut-n of their furniture and belongings as possible, to dry land.- In many cases the people, not dreaming of such a flood, looked on unconcernedly as the waters lapped up under their homes, but as hour alter hour the water stead ily rose, with varying degrees of velo city, at times as much as eight inches to the hour, they became panic-stricken and flee, leaving furniture and all to the mercy of the flood. ; It is ho un common sight to see pianos, organs, bedsteads and other household effects floating around, while the bodies of chickens and hogs, caught by the wat ers end drowned, Can be seen on eve-' ry hand. ' In one Instance, and this right in the heart of the city, near Evans' Chapel, William Terry, a young negro, who is dying with consump tion had to he lowered from the second-story window of his bouse into a boat, and thus carried to safety, the water had risen almost to the second floor, to which he had been carried as a sure refuge. ; . , i J , Higher up still in the city, and more than a mile from the river channel, es pecially on Green,--Mason, Raeford Lane, the only means of transportation is by boat, and a score bf families on tiguous to them, have had to move out of their homes. Mr. Duncan's family, who resides on Mason street, was one of the last to 'give up, but finally they too were forced to leave, and Wheirthls decision waa reached . this : morning they found that the only way they could gt t away waa by boat. So a batteau was sent to their reaief, and the grand-mother and the children ta ken away first. When all were on dry land, one ot the children discover ed that the billy goat and cat had been left behind, so the boat returned, and they too were rescued. V In this neighborhood the Masonic Lodge and MaJ, B. R. Huske's resi dence are also surrounded by water. On Green street the water Is almost up to St. John's church, and the only means of reaching the northern part ot the city, unless one goes way up around the toot ot Haymonnt, is by boats: At Eccles' bridge, which spans Cross Creek at the Merchants Mill, a regular, ferry has teen established. Near this point the residences ot May or Bullard. Dr. Marsh and Mr. L. C. Wooten are entirely flooded, the wat er being several feet deep above the first floor. The residences of Mr. J. A. Colvin and Mr. J. H. Pearce, Just above these, are also surrounded by water, while the lots in the rear of all the houses on the east side ot Green, are covered many feet deep. The cem etery and all the houses in the rear ot Green street are also flooded. On Russell street, the water has come up as high as ex-Mayor Cook's residence, and from there down boats are also plying. So Fayettevllle is a veritable Venice to-day. A lady who lives on Green street was down on Person street yesterday evei ing viewing the great flood with a ba'oy in her arms. A friend met her and said; "What in the world did you bring your baby along for. She rep.l-d. laughingly: "Because I was afraid I might find my house surround ed by water when I returned." Lit tle did she think that what she Jok ingly said would come true a few hours afterwards. Now her house is sur rounded by six feet of water. The extent of the damage in Fay ettevllle i3 great, but throughout this section it is enormous. Mr. R. B. Evans had a narrow escape with his familr, but managed to reach this city at noon by driving many miles out of his way. He is one of the worst suff erers, with five or six hundred acres of cotton and corn, a few days ago in splendid condition, now entirely cov ered by water, and a total loss. Mr. J. B. Hair, lower "down the river, is also probably the largest loser in the county, with growing crops on a thous and acres under water and a big loss. It would take columns to enumerate th3 farmers along the Cape Fear who have lost all, or a great portion of their crops. The Cape Fear now presents a grand and awe inspiring sight sight, and thousands of people have gathered as near aa they can to view it. The Clarendon bridge and both, the Atlantic Coast Line steel bridges are atil! ':. tact as far as can be seen. The gr v Clarendon bridge is half sub- mergf i. the water now pouring thr h the diamond-shaped windows, sis i t above the floor. It is holding itc ovn nobly, and its strength is one of the wonders of the flood. If it tl i go, it would undoubtedly carry A. C. L. steel bridge a few hun yri3 bolow, with its loaded steel car3 ih it. 4 o'clock this afternoon there 70 ts water in the Cape Fear wi h a rise of half an inch an hour in progress. ' At thi-; hour there is every indica tes thti the flood win begin to recede bef-re c orning. At 3 o'clock this morning the elec tric light plant was put out of business. and to-night the city will be in dark ness Railroad traffic is still paralyzed. The sua peeped out at 3 o'clock this af ernocn for the first time in a week, but remained shining only a few min- utes. Fjod is. getting scarce in the city, especially beef, eggs and chickens. th dr.. cot THE GREAT FLOOD IS RECEDING. REACHES THE PHENOMENAL HEIGHT OF 71 FEET. ' SPLENDID RESPONSE TO CALL .'FOR RELIEF. , Citizens Still Reaching Homes By Boat The River Bridges Still Holding OutReports from Country Districts Meagre. ' . From Saturday's Dally, At 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon the flood reached lis greatest height, the phenomenal record of 71 feet It then stood at & standstill for several hour, and shortly after midnight began t recede slowly, To-day opened clear and beautlfu, and the great river, branching pot over miles of territory, presents a magni ficent sight , -"v. The novelty of using boats as means of transportation through, the streets and to homes, has about worn off, and it Is now looked upon as matter ot course. Merchants, banker.., doctors, newspaper men and promin ent citizens is ell walks of life take to boats' like ducks to water. Several accidents in this mode of transport' Hon have happened j but all more o. lest of a ludicious nature, especially where some clumsy citizen shifts too near the . side of a batteau and turns It over, sending its occupants into the water.? - U-l ;. T -' It Is estimated that fully two hun- theee streets, as well err streets eon- drd Houses In tall City" If ere surround- by water, and fully one hundred families forced to leave them and seek higher ground. In the districts outside bf Fayett- ville, great numbers ot people have huj to abandon their houses, but, aa com munication is cut oft with them, re ports are very meagre. Some estimates place the loss by the flood in this county aa high as a quar ter ot a million dollars, and we do n-il believe that figure will miss the marK far. ' Mr. R. B. Evans returned from his farms near Sherwood last night. and soys that ot his six hundred ami fifty acres under cultivation, one acre alone escaped the flood; and that, though his house stands on high ground, it was surrounded by water. He got his eleven mules to safety, by placing a negro on each one, and with himself at the head ot the procession on another, swam, them a -distance ot halt a mile to the sand hills. His plan tation Is in three' tiers, the lowlands he calls his gambling lands, that is he expects them to be destroyed by a big freshet; the next tier, only a great freshet like that of 1901 could reach. and the last tier, he termed his Govern ment Bond land, which no known, or prospective freshet could reach. The phenomenal happened, however, and the Bond land met the same fate a: the gambling lands. He takes his loss philosophically, however, and, though he does not say it might have been worse, he just says it can't be helped. It will be several days before the city will be able to resume ita normul condition, and railroad traffic resumed. The track just beyond the steel bridge on the tnaitt line ot the Atlantic Coast Line is washed away for a mile or more, and it will be several days be fore trains can pass over it. Many miles of the Raleigh & Southport has been washed away or underminded, and it will be late into next week hp fore that road can resume business. The trestle leading np to the ste-l bridge over the Cape Fear at Camp bellton, on the Wilmington division ot the A. C. L., though not washt-d away, is badly damaged, and it will take some time to repair it. Meantime the trains have beentransferringat that point. The BenneUsvllle and Sanfoil trains alone are running on schedule time. Many people, on their way to Fayettevllle, are hung up at various pfaces, while hundreds of others, en route here, have had to turn back. THE PEOPLE RESPONDING. The people of this city are respond ing nobly to the appeal for relief of the flood sufferers. Nearly one thous and dollars have been subscribed ; 1- ready to the Relief Fund toy individ uals. Lodge No. 1081, B. P. O. B., mi last night and subscribed $100. Dr. McKenna, of Reldsvtlle, wired' to-day to draw on him for $100 If necessary Dr. F. S. Clark, who Is out of the cltv. wired to draw on him for $50. The Fi nance Committee has not yet taken any action as to Dr. McKenna's gener ous offer; but, in response .to Dr Clark's kind telegram, the Committee drew on him for half the amount ten dered. The Board of Aldermen met yester day afternoon and opened the city' purse to the Committee to any amount necessary, and .the Board of County Commissioners met to-day and voted aid to the extent of $250. RELIEF HEADQUARTERS. Relief Headquarters were opened to day in the Highsmlth Block, and here a liberal supply provisions, and cloth ing, etc. is being issued for distrt bntion. Already there is a long line ot sufferers in these headquarters, awaiting their turn to be relieved. LITTLE INCIDENTS OF AMUSE MENT. ,j Standing with ruin all around them some of the worst sufferers have found little Incidents, which, in spite of them selves, have caused them to laugh. At one home a great big turkey is left us the only guardian, and he stands proudly on top of the house, surveying with dignified nerve, the flood around him. At another, the rats have con gregated from all parts of the lot and house, and are now In possession of the upper floors. At another, one can see sitting cn the piazza, the family, a mule, a goat, and several chickens roosting on .the railing. Persons belated In getting home at night have a bard lime, and their ef forts to get boat to carry them tneir residences often cause amuse ment to the neighbors, who gather at their windows in response to the shouts of the one in distress, and lauh heartily at his frantic efforts to hall a boat r-.-'vy ' ADMINISTRATOR'S NOTICE.
