Flood waters from twenty four inches to three feet cover the suburb between Cottage Grove Avenue and Illinois Central tracks from Seventy fifth street to the city limits. The rise halted about 5 AM Monday with no relief in sight forcing residents of Grand Crossing Fordham Rockdale Dauphin Park and Burnside to abandon homes. Passable roads and transit are washed out and business is at a standstill though no loss of life is reported.

Lovers Die by Strychnine on Port William Road
Allert Palmer aged 21 of Jamestown and Mary Conklin aged 18 of Port William were found dead beside a road after riding to Port William in a buggy. A robe was spread for a head seat, two glasses and two strychnine papers lay nearby, and a note asked to bury them together. The case appears a planned double suicide.
