A LONDON FLOOD
(British Official Wireless.) RUGBY, June 17. Remarkable scenes followed the bursting of a water main in the centre of London today. Neighbouring streets were soon several feet deep with a swirling tide which swept into shops, flooded cellars, and brought traffic to a standstill. The tramway tunnel from Kingsway to the Embankment was flooded, and dislocation of the tramway service resulted over a considerable area.
