IN SERIOUS FLIGHT
THOUSANDS MAROONED IN QUEENSLAND FLOODS TWO HORSEMEN DROWNED Reed. 11.30 a.m. BRISBANE, Today. Many parts of Northern and Western Queensland that have been dry for years are now inland seas, and in some parts train passengers have been marooned in railway carriages for a fortnight. Two horsemen at different parts were drowned when their horses plunged into surging waters, and a third man was drowned at Cunnamula. There is now a complete stoppage of railway services in the north and west. Approximately a thousand passengers are stranded at different parls. Supplies of foodstuffs at Mount Isa are running short as the town has been isolated for a fortnight.
