REPORTS FROM ELSEWHERE. 0 Loss to Property “111 Be Very Great, Though Few Persons Perished—The Schuylkill Is Still Rising With Dangerous Bapidity. WILLIAMSPORT, Pa, May 23.—A11 of the horrors of the disastrous flood of 1889 have been repeated, and Williamsport and all of the country around has been swept by a mighty river that spread out over al- most every part of the city, carrying away with it property of such value that it is utterly impossible to calculate the amount. The river is now going down rapidly, and about one-half the-the flooded terri— tory is out of water. This is in the center of the city. The lower parts cast and west are yet under water, and as the rain has continued unccasingly for 48 hours the river is likely to keep up during the next 24 hours. When communication with the outside world was cut off at’2 o'clock Monday morning by the breaking of the wires, the river had overflowcd its banks east'and west. It rapidly came out and spread out over the whole city, and early yesterday morning it was impossible to get any- where except by thc use of boats. The night was one of terrible experi- ences. The water came up so rapidly in some places that the occupants of the houses were compelled to flee to the upper stories for safety and were rescued from there by heroic boatmen, hundreds of whom risked their lives to save others in danger. To add to the. unfortunate situation, the electric light and gas plants were early crippled, and the city was in darkness aft- er 8 o’clock’. Half the big boom, contain- ing 150, 000, 000 feet of legs, went out soon after midnight. The other half went at about 4 o‘clock. The logs in the mills along the river as well as thousands of feet of sawod lumber and portions of mills were also swept away, and the loss to the lumbermen is as great as it was in 1889. The Market street and Maynard street bridges, which cost the county $200,000, were carried away early yesterday morn- ing. The Reading railroad bridge [at Muncy, an imposing iron structure, was swept away yesterday morning. All of the wooden bridges in the neighborhood are. gone. The flood reached its height at about 10 o’clock last night, when the water began to slowly go down. At that time it was about 32 feet high, which was within a foot and 10 inches as high as the flood of 1889. The city at that hour was covered with water as far as the eye could reach. Many of the smaller houses along the river banks were swept away; and others were flooded from 4 to 16 feet. The busi- ness portion of the city suffered less than in 1889, for the reason that the warning came in good season, and their goods had been turned out of the way of harm. Many of them were not placed high enough from the water, and some of the stores are wrecked. ~ No Lives Lost. . A remarkable fact is that not a single life appears to have been lost. Rumors of many drownings have been heard, but so far not a single one has been confirmed. Lock Haven, Renovo, Jersey Shore and other points west were great-er sufferers , than in 1880. North of us the damage was not so great. " East of Williamsport there was great destruction. All of the country rbads and bridges have been swept away, and many of the little mills and stocks of logs have moved with the great body of water. The part of the city that is now out of water is' (Srowdcd with men, women and chil- dren. Many of them are those whose houses, which can be seen in the distance, are still under water. All of our residents fully realize the ex- tent Of the calamity, and all of the priva- tions and sufferings that are yet to come. There is, howovcr, no grumbling and no disposition anywhere to lie down and wor- ry over it. Where the water has gone out of houses and stores their owners and oc- cupants are already busily making them habitable again and are Working with a will that promises to bring order out of chaos in a short time. Mayor Elliott has telegraphed the governor and Mayor Stu- art of Philadelphia, giving the situation. Damage Along the Schuylkill. PHILADELPHIA, May 2 .—’I.‘he floods in the Delaware and Schuylkill were greater than ever at high water. today. Places that were not reached by the waters at high tide yesterday afternoon were sub merged this morning. The most serious damage was done along the' Schuylkill, but property on the Delaware front also suffered severely. ' ' ~ At Manayunk the Schuylkill rose is within a foot of the high 'flood tide of 1869. The mills on the eastibank are flood- ed to the first floor, and as the water is running rapidly it is feared some of them will collapse. The water has submerged the first floors of the houses on the west side, and the peopleiare in the second stor- ies. At \Vissahickon the river reached such an alarming height that families had to be taken out on rafts and removed to places of safety. . The Delaware river bank broke near the Greenwich piers this morning, flooding a portion of Island road west of Broad street and the surrounding section. Several families .at Sun]; street wharf had to be removed from their second sto- ries in boats. The South street and Gray’s Ferry bridges are still intact, but the dan- ger of their destruction is not lessened. At Twenty-fourth .and 'Chestnut streets the water is fully as high as it was yester~ day, and -all business at the Baltimore and Ohio railroad depot is suspended. Su- perintendent Dent says that it will be 10 days, even should the water abate at once, before they can resume operations at that point. ‘ ' Gene'ssce Valley Roadsuumea. DANSVILLE, N. Y., May zit—The pres ent flood W111 1.. :1: in magnitude of destruc- tion to roadways on both sides of the Gen‘ esee valley with the flood of 1856, which is recorded as the most extensive - and de- structive in the history of the county of Livingston. ' The. - innumerable gullies which line each gide of the valley and are comparatively dry- during the summer month'h-are converted into Waterways of uncontrolled power during the prevalence of the rainfall, of such. eopiousness as the present, and the sudden and terri— ble rush of waters tears out every obstruc- tion in its course before it enters the val- my and finds a‘level‘.‘ in the rising - flood. It will take a long time to place the road- ways of- the valley intheir former condi-' tion, and the expense saddled on the towns along the line will be enormous in the aggregate. Railroad Travel Demoralized. ROCHESTER, May 23.—-A washout of 00 feet of track at Avon today completely blocked the Western New York and Penn- sylvania road. The only train out of Rochester today on that road was the Seottsvillc, a distance of 12 miles and re- turn. Over the tracks at Avon from two to three feet of water is flowing. It will be several days before the water subsides, so that the passage can be made. Other minor washouts along the line are report- ed. It will be a week before the trains can run through regularly on this division. The Erie tracks in this city are covered with eight inches of water, extending from the depot for an eighth of a mile. The trains passed through the water in safety today, but as the Gcncsce river continues to rise there is danger thatthe water will soon be too deep to allow the passage of trains. The Susquehanna Still Rising. COLUMBIA, Pa., May 23.——The Susque- hanna river at this point is 12 feet above low water mark, within eight inches of being as high as in June, 1889. and still. rising. The logs from the \Villiamsport boom passed here at 3 o’clock this morning. All boathouses on the banks of the river have been sxvept away. There are no trains running west on the Pennsylvania railroad. The tracks are three feet under water for three miles west of this town. At Marietta all the residents on Front street have moved out of their homes. Along the port roadx south of here many towns are under water. The pumping station, electric light plant and many mills are under water. Telegraph Companies Embarrassed. NEW YORK, May .‘23.—Telcgraph com- panies still report great trouble with the wires on account of the storm. There is much improvement in the wires today as compared with yesterday, however, espe- cially in the south. In New Jersey all along thccoast south of Long Branch points arc'i'eached with difficulty and only after long delays. Communication is very bad throughout Pennsylvania, and Wilkes— barre, Lock Haven and the flooded region are only reached new by one wire. The northern central part of the state is also in bad shape. The California lines he- . twecn Cheyenne and Ogden are all weath~ or bound, but everywhere else they are in good shape, and everything is working well. Unpreparcd at Penn Yan. PENN YAN, N. Y., May filth—The rain of the last two days has caused consider- able damagc. The water in Lake Ken— ka has risen very rapidly and is now pouring over the state dam at the foot of Main street to the depth of 11 inches. The sudden rise, after nearly every one had ceased to expect it, caught many unpre- paer and causes much inconvenience. Many new docks suffer from the loss of planking, and considerable timber piled along the shore is also afloat. Vineyards which have been plowed are very badly gutted, especially along the precipitous side of the Buff Point and the west side of the west branch. Cheering Reports From Several Points. PHILADELPHIA, May 23.—chorts from Williainsport and the territory north of there indicate that the water is falling as rapidly as it rose. It has ceased raining, and the danger may now be regarded as 3past. The \Vestern Union Telegraph opero ators got back to their office this morning, and communication with the outside world has been resumed. At Renovo, Lock Haven, Bellefonte, Clearficld and Drift- vvood the water has receded, and the work The wires are working poorly, and infor— mation from those points is meager. Tracks Under “’ater. ATLANTIC" CITY, May BEL—The storm continued today, but with much less force than during the previous 24 hours. The South J crscy railroad has been badly crip— pled by the tracks being submerged and serious washouts along the road between Cape May and Camden and this place. The tracks oféhe South Jersey road cross- ing the meadows at this place. are com- pletely under water, and trains could not run. Railroad travel to Cape May has been cut off on accmmtof hcavywashouts. Great damage has been done to the grow- ' ing crops in south Jersey. Phoenix Company's Plant Submerged. ,l Pnorslxvnmu, Pa, May 23.—’l‘hc Schuylkill river at this point is more than 18 feet above the low water mark and is still rising. The entire plant of the thnix Iron company is submerged to a depth of from three to eight feet, and all operations have ceased. Schuylkill canal are broken badly in a dozen places, and almost 100 families have been comchled' to‘ move out of then homes. The borough waterworks are submerged so that no water can be pumped into the reservoir, which is fast running dry. Broken Embankment at §unbury. SUNBL'RY, Pa, May 23.—'This city it now flooded.
