The Floods Have Not Yet Snbsided.
_JOHNSTOWN, Pa, May 22.—About 3
o’clock this morning J ohnstown was visit-
ed by the most disastrous flood since the
big one of May 31, 1889. At present it is a
hard matter to estimate the loss. but it is
an assured fact that the damage done in
the city and within five miles of it will be
very heavy. The Pennsylvania road is the
heaviest loser. Most of its loss is the re-
sult of a bad washout in 'its track above
Conemaugh. For several days the Cone-
maugh and Stony crock valleys have been
visited by heavy ruins of almost a contin-
uous nature. .
Stony creek reached its highest point
about 9 o’clock yesterday morning and aft-
cr that time began to reccde gradually By
night it had fallen several feet, so that no
serious damage was apprehended. But in
the evening a heavy rain “began in the
Concmaugh valley, which continued until
about 10 o’clock, when a cloudburst oc-
curred near Ebensburg. . The valley in
which the vast volume of water descended
is a tributary of the Concmaugh, and
shortly after the cloud burst the Cone-
maugh had swollen to many times its nat-
ural size. The volume of water reached
this vicinity about 3 o’clock this morning
and was accompanied by wholesale de-
struction. '
The flood was first felt at South Fork,
where numerous small buildings were
swept away. Farther on in the course of
the stream the_ water undermined the track
of the Pennsylvania railroad used by east
bound trains. For almost two miles this
track was rendered impassable, and it be—
came necessafy for trains going either way
to use the one track. All trains were de-
layed. The fast line, due here at 10:30
o’clock, was hold all .night on account of
the Washout at Kit-tanning.
At East Concmaugh the water boat fu-
riously against the large Pennsylvania
raiqupd roundhouse and weakened the
foundations so greatly that it was found
necessary to remove all the engines to a
place of safety. The ‘building, however,
stood. ~
Several Buildings \Vrecked.
Several bridges and wooden structures
below Conemaugh were badly damaged,
but the greatest damage was in this city.
In the Eleventh ,ward the Oklahoma
House. owned' by Peter Seymour, was
caught by the raging waters and swept to
destruction. A three story building be-
longing to Philip Brown was torn from its
foundation and greatly damaged. The
iron bridge at this place was badly
wrecked. Fully $15,000 damage was done
a
sylvania passenger station here. Between
the freight station and the river is an arti-
flcial embankment on which there were
five loaded freight cars on a siding. The
swift water undermined the bank, which
gave way about 4 O’clock, carrying dowo
in the river about 200 foot of track and the
cars. ,
In one of the cars were five tramps, who
are said to have been members of Galvin’s
army. Three of them succeeded in get-
ting away, but two were drewncd. ~ Their
names could not be learned. When the
flood came, there was great excitement.
Parties went from house to house, awaken-
ing the occupants. Whistles blew, and the
city was alive with teams and people, who
were taken to Westmont and Prospect.
In qudvale the streets were covered with
Water to the depth of six feet, and small
houses were washed away.
Swamk’s pottery works, in the Woodvale
section of the city, caught fire,‘and this
conflagration added to the terror of the in-
habitants. It was impossible for the fire
companies to reach the_ building, and it
was ruined before the flames went out of
their own accord. The Woodvale bridge
that it cannot be used.
At 1 p. m. the riverstcgan to fall rapid-
ly, and all danger is apparently past. Three
buildings were carried away in the central
part of the city, and a large number of oth-
ers badly damaged. The store of —Antony
George at the north end of Lincoln bridge
Was submerged, and, although anchored
with ropes the water swept it away with
all its contents. The residences of Manual
James and Charles Stotler also went down
stream. The rear of the Grand Central
hotel, a four story buildingfwas caved in,
but the building stood. Considerable dam-
age was done to the bridges in this vicin
ity, but'the worst is now over. A body
floated past the city, but those who at-
tempted to rescue it failed.
Pennsylvania Railroad Reports.
PHILADELPHIA, May 22.—Manager Pro-
vost of the Pennsylvania railroad received
a telegram from Superintendent Sheppard
at Altoona conveying the fnformation that
about 1,500 feet of the embankment be'
tween bridge No. 6 and Mineral Point had
been washed away during the night. The
water poured down through the narrow
chaism in which the ill fated dam of the
South Fork Fishing club was 1coated, and
,' joining the already swollen Conemaugh
river at South Fork washed away the earth
at the point who‘re the bed of the stream
was changed .-=.~ the flood of-1889.
channel at this point. If the waterrs-
cedes, Superintendent Sheppard will on-
deavor to repair the break by tomorrow
morning, but until repairs are made no
trains can be run farther west than Al»
toona. East bound through trains will
not be sent out from Pittsburg until- the
break is filled in or a temporary trestle is
constructed. Superintendent Sheppard
also reports that the min, which continued
to fall until‘2 oclock this morning, caused
much trouble along the line cast of Al-
toona. At Mill Creek, Vandyke, Mexico,
Port Royal, the Narrows, Lewistown
Junction, McVeytown and Manayunk
bridge the tracks next the river are. n!
passable, and at "one or two points then
have been serious cavelns.
Reports from Williamsport are to the
effect that only a slight rain is falling to-
day, but the skies are still heavily over
cast, and the downpour of the past few days-
may resume at any moment- At 5 O’clock
.the west branch of the Susquehanna was
27 feet above the low water line and rising.
at the rate of six inches an hour. The
river is now about as‘high as it was dur-
ing the flood of 1889, and water is run-
ning through the streets of Williamsport.
- Some river men estimate that it will go
about four feet higher, while others think
the worst is over and that the fall will be-
gin soon. ‘ .
At Renovo, Keating and Karthous,
about 60 miles north of Williamsport, the
river had fallen over two feet at 10 o’clock
this morning. Montgomery bridge, the
mile long structure which spans the west
branch just north of Watsonto‘wn, is
weighted with heavily laden freight cars,
and until the water recedes no traffic will
be allowed to cross the bridge.
The Pacific express, which left here at
11:20 o’clock last night, is held at Watson-
town. The Pennsylvania railroad has
large forces of men on the ground ready to
repair all damage as. soon as the water
falls. Three train loads of west bound
Knights Tcmplars are held up in this city
awaiting the opening of the line to Pitts-
burg. _ They may not be able to proceed
before' tomorrow. ‘ _
Delaware breakwater reports that the
wind is blowling only 10 miles an hour and
that- yesterday’s gale did no damage to
shipping as far as is known.
Two lives were lost in the flood this aft-
ernoon. Adrian :Weichcl, aged 35 years
was trying to rescue a team of horses near
Etna about 1 o’clock, when his feet
caught in the harness, and he was drowned.
A few minutes later an unknown boy
about 15 years old was “drowned in Alle-
gheny while catching drift wood. Both
bodies were swept down’ the stream.
Canaseraga Valley Inundated.
DANSVILLE, N. Y., May 22.—The Cane»
seraga creek and‘its tributaries are on a
terrible rampage, and the flood now at its
height is the worst in the Genesee valley
for years. The water rose steadily last
night on the flats one foot an hour and is
now two feet above the high water mark
of the great freshet of five years ago. As
far as the eye can see down the valley the
whole is a vast expanse of water. Im-
mense trees, torn from the banks of the
raging streams, and all sorts of timbers
and wreckage are floating everywhere,
presenting a scene of destruction terrible to
contemplate. The destruction of growing
and newly planted crops is complete, and
the damage the farmers have sustained
will run up into the hundreds of thou-
sands of dollars. The Bradner creek at
Cummlnsvillc has 'swept everything along
its banks, carrying down acres of rich farm
lands and depositing the soil in the creeks
in the valley below. The Canaseraga val~
ley has suffered terribly. 'Bridges are car—
ried away, and the main roadway is cut
out and washed away for rods in many
places, rendering it impassable. Great
damage has been done in Stony Brook
glen, and the gorge is dammed in several
places' to a great height with trees and
floodwood. The Dansville and Mount
Morris road is under water for miles, and
traffic is suspended. The big bridge below
the town, an immense wood structure, is
under ‘watcr, and fears are entertained
that it is becoming undermined and will
be swept away. The situation in the val-
ley is deplorable, and it will take a long
time to recover from the effects of the ter-
rible flood‘ that now prevails.
Havoc In Western New York.
BUFFALO, May 22,—The J une flood was
a month ahead of time this year. Reports
which .come in from all parts of western
New York show that the flood of the last
three days has not been equaled by any-
thing Sincc the time of the J ohnstown
flood of 1889. '
In the valleys of the Allegheny and its
tributaries the damage seems to be the
worst. In the valley of the Genesee it is
estimated that the damage to the farmers
will reach hundreds of thousands of dol-
lars. In the suburbs of Buflalo, devoted
to market gardening, thousands of dollars
worth of gardens have been inundated and
rendered almost worthless. The crops on
all the low lands have practically been
washed out of the earth. .
Thus far the railroads have not suffered
very extensively. The Buffalo, Rochester
and Pittsburg was unable to run its trains
past West Seneca last night on account of
washouts. The Western New York and
Pennsylvania also had some trouble with
culverts washed out on its Buffalo divi-
sion. Trains on the Erie and other roads
haveZbeen obliged to run slowly and guard
their bridges closely. It would not be sur-
prising if some accidents were to occur, as
the water is still rising in many streams.
\Villiamsport Under \Vater.
WILLIAMSPORT, Pa, May 22.-—The water
in the river has reached a. height of 81 feet
above low water at this hour, one foot
higher than the disastrous flood of 1889.
The entire city is under water, which
ranges in depth from 4 to 20 feet.
The water is still rising at the rate of
six inches an hour. All the logs at the
boom which broke at 1 o’clock this morn-
ing have been swept away as well as many
sawmills and houses in the lower part of
wire is working out of the city with the
single exception of a shaky long distance
telephone which was placed at the dis-
posal of a press correspondent. While he
was talking to Philadelphia he wasdriven
out of the office by the rapid rise of water:

branches or the river are rising. ~f'l'he flood
of 1889 reached a depth of 19 feet.
Oil City lVas Prepared.
OIL CITY, May 2-2.——The constant rains
of the past three days have greatly swollen
the creeks and streams in this city. All
points up the river are submerged, but the
rise was so gradual that the inhabitants
had time to prepare for the worst. In this
city the .flats are inundated, and base-
ments along Seneca, Center and Main
streets in the center Of town are flooded.
The National Transit shops are under wa-
ter,and work has been suspended.
Heavy Loss at Newport.
NEWPORT, Pa, May 22.—-The J uniata
river is 25 feet above low water mark.
about five feet lower than when the terri-
ble flood of 1889 occurred. Families on
Front street have abandoned their homes,
the water flooding the first stories of their
houses. Groger & Shreflier’s planing and
saw 'mills are under about five feet of wa-
ter, and much lumber has been swept
away. The water is now at .a standstill.
The loss will be very heavy.
Cellars Full In Rochester.
ROCHESTER, May 22-.-—The Genesee river
is within a foot of high water mark of the
year. Cellars in the business [portion of

eral railroads entering the city. It is still
raining, and should the storm continue a
freshet is feared. Towns up the valley re-
steady rise of the river.
