8t. Louis, June 4.—Sloavly the Mis­sissippi river Is creeping «p the levee inch by Inch. The gauge now mgrka thirty-two feet. The surface of the swiftly flowing water Is thickly strewn with driftwood, indicating that the crest of the flood is approaching. A number of frame houses submerged to the roofs have passed St. Louis and m*v and then a dead animal, but no human bodies have been seen, •!- though a vigilant watch has been maintained. llarl>or department offi­cials look for a thirty-five foot stage.

In South Bt. Ixiuls several houses along the river’s edge have been flood­ed, but the occupants have removed their property and vacated. On the Illinois side there Is a more serious flood condition. Venice, situated north oT East fit. Louis, Is In gffisoet imme­diate danger of inundation. A rise of one foot more will submerge the west portion of the town, and manafactiir' lug industries will suffer heavy losses,

Between Venice and Ehst 8t. Louis is a lowland area used as farming lands. Water now covers this area to a depth o f twelve feet, forming a lake about a mile square. Many squatter families have been forced out, leaving everything behind.

People along the river have received a general wurnlng, aid it is believed all in danger have escaped to higher ground.
