Big Damage Done by Flood
A total money loss of $163,000,000 was caused by the flood in the Ohio
Valley. The Weather Bureau at Washington estimates that as the sum,
which includes loss to railroads, telegraph and telephone lines and to
farms and farm property, including prospective crops The latter alone
amounted to about $11,000,000. Of the total amount more than 70 per
cent was sustained in Ohio and Indiana. In point of magnitude the
1913 flood probably ranks second with all Ohio Valley floods, being overtopped
only by the midwinter flood of 1884, the report declares. In the
lower Mississippi, the crest stages attained exceeded all previous records
(illegible) Cairo and Galena.
