King Emmanuel's Do main Is Threatened by Another Disaster STREAMS ARE OUT OF THEIR BANKS Vatican Quarter of Rome Generally Flooded and Waters In the Streets Around St, Peter's Have Risen to Nearly Five Feet /ty Associated Pi cas, Rome, Feb. 15, 1.36 1». M.—The flood waters in the streets around St. Peter's nave risen to a height of four leet and eleven inches. Several walls have collapsed, but without serious consequences. Home, Feb. 15, 2.65 A. M. —Italy, having just passed through a period of grave anxiety ns a result of destruc tive earthquakes, is now facing a new peril in tlio form of floods. Kvery whero streams are out of their banks, due to heavy rain storms, which 'have continued for several days. In ttho low lying quarters the people have been driven from their homes or are prisoners in the upper stories of their houses. The military authorities have taken cogniz-ince of the situation and troops have been sent to aid in res cue work and to provide food to suf ferers cut off from supplies. River Fifty Feet Out of Banks In Rome the river Tiber is more t'lian fifty feet out of its normal banks and is rising at the rate'of two inches an hour. The one bright snot in the situa tion is that tJhe weather, ugly to-day, showed signs of clearing and this gives hope that the waters will soon recede. The Leonine city, as the Vatican quar ter of Home is called, is in tihe lower •part of the town and this section is generally flooded. The water, however, has not reached the apostolic palace. Pope Benedict is taking a sympathetic interest in tihe situation and has in structed all the parish priests to display the greatest energy in aiding their dis tressed parishioners. The Pope him self spent a good deal of his time Sun day in watching the rising waters in the quarter just below the apostolic palace. Patients Removed From Hospital Two hundred patients in the hospital of Santo Spirito, near the Vatican, have been removed to upper floors of tihe building because of the flood. Some fear is expressed that the rising water may cause the building to collapse. The authorities have closed the road from Rome to the sea in which there are several deposits of carbide and lime. Some of these, through infiltration from the flooded Tiber, have already exploded and caused nearby building* to collapse. Fortunately there were no victims, as the people, forseeing dangei had left the place. St. Angelo Bridge Endangered Great anxiety is felt to-day for the famous St. Angelo bridge, originally erected by Emperor Hadrian and which connects his tomb with the city. The water is already over the pillars of the bridge and troops, engineers and fire men are at the scene doing what is possible to check the ,peril. Milos bridge, built over one hundred years before Christ, is inundated and water also sur rounds the imposing Basilion of St,. Paul's. The Siiblious bridge, the etruc ture sup-posed to have been defended by Horatus and two companions, is also under water. This is thf oldest bridgo in Rome, having been built in the year 639 B. C. Bridges Closed to Traffic The bridges which have shown signs of weakness have been closed to traffic. Many houses in the immediate neigh borhood of St. Peter's have from three to four feet of waiter in the lower stories and the inhabitants were obliged to remove their possessions to tho up per floors. The floods have turned the low lying quarters of the city into a second Venice,,as the streets are now all water ways ami boats are the only means of progression. BURGLAR ENTERS PUBLIC LIBRARY AND STEALS S3Q 1 Continued From First Pag*. o'clock last night, the poiice hu-pe to clear up numerous recent robberies on Allison Hill. It is alleged Williams hail several pipes anil some smokers' sup plies in hi? pocket, and' tolmeco dealers who have been robbed have been asked to come to Police Headquarters to try and identify the property. The Stonesifer place was entered be fore through a broken window. The in truder had pried off a board which was over tihe window. Patrolman McFarlaud says hip found Williams in the place and placed him under arrest. The fifth robbery of the night was reported to the police by R. L. Clouser, of 1307 Walnut street. Entrance was guin'cd to that house through a back window and the hi iges of the safe were removed. The thief ram9aekod the place but, so far as Clouser could learn this morning, nothing uf value was ta ken.
