ITALIAN FLOODS
DANGER TO ROME. (Australian and N.Z. Cable Association ; LONDON, December 8. The “Daily Telegraph’s” Rome correspondent says: —“The Tiber threatens the city of Rome with another historic inundation. The depth of water is already 40 feet in many places. The river is almost at the level of the embankment walls along a great part of its course through the city, and is level with, streets at Ponte Milvio, where the bridge itself is flooded, the water pouring over instead of under the arches. Floods threaten the greater part of Campagna, where large areas and numerous establishments are ten to 20 feet under water. Lakes, previously non-existent, have appeared between the outskirts of Rome and Ostia.
