Damage in Hunt Co.
Greenville, July. 2.—The heav-
iest rain in many years fell in
this section last night and this

and light plant out of Commis-
sion, flooding the low lands and
miking 100 persons temporar-
ily homeless, besides sweeping
uway railroad tracks and tele-
phone and telegraph wires. It is
estimated that the crop damage
to Hunt county by floods will
reach nearly a million dollars.
The Sabine river is now higher

on the Union side in the battle
of Gettysburg and the other
