Pennsylvania Flood Swept.
Great Damage. Done oy Overflowing Streams. Ice
Gorges in the Susquehanna, Allegheny and Monon-
gahela. Lives Lost and an Immense Amount of
Property Destroyed.
JonNsTOWN, Feb. 28.—High water is
causing endless excitement and serious
damage here to-night. The two rivers,
the Little Conemaugh and Stony Creek,
which are in confluence at the great stone
bridge of the Pennsylvania railroad in this
city, are almost bank high their entire
length and in some places near the centre
of the city have overflowed, flooding the
streets and driving people from their
homes. Stony Creek, which under
usual conditions is a shallow stream aver-
aging scarcely more than two feet in depth,
at 9 o’clock to-night registered sixteen and
a half feet, remaining stationary after a
continual rise since morning. The current
is very swift and large quautities of ice,
logs and driftwood bave passed down.
During the evening the remarkable
scenes of hundreds of families being re-
moved in carriages, rafts and other means
from the water surrounded homes in the
flooded districts were enacted.
There is no danger to life, but exten-
sive property damage is inevitable.
Business was practically suspended and
thousands of people watched events. The
works at the Cambria steel company are
almost completely paralyzed and if is esti-
mated 10,000 people are idle. There is
from, two to three feet of water in some
parts of the Cambria yards and in many
of the shops.
The big ice gorge at Hooversville, above
Johnstown in the Stony Creek, broke this
morning and came tearing down the stream,
carrying away two foot bridges in the city.
To-night some parts of the city streets are
flooded to a depth of from one to five feet
and in consequencee the street car service
has been almost totally abandoned. Mox-
ham and Cambria City, suburbs of the city,
are completely isolated. Teamsters cannot
reach the lower part of the city except by
going miles over the hills.
In the First, Seventh, Eighth, Twentieth
and Twenty first wards, hundreds of fami-
lies are water hound hut men in high rub-
ber boots and on horseback are attending to
their wants.
On Main and Clinton streets practically
every basement of the business houses was
flooded with from two to five feet of water
and fire engines were working all the after-
noon and night endeavoring to pump them
out, but are making little progress, so fast
does the water run in.
At South Fork, this county, two bridges
were washed away, on one of which were
three men, who were rescued with much
difficulty. All were severely injured.
Telephone wires reaching surrounding
towns are all down and information outside
of the city is difficult to obtain.
JoHNSTOWN, March. 1.—At 2:30 a. m.
the water in Stony creek had receded to
fifteen feet. The worst is thought to have
been passed.
BEDFORD, Feb. 28.—The heavy rains of
yesterday and today have changed the snow
on the mountains into rushing torrents and
the creeks have reached the high water
mark, both Dunning creek and the Rays-
town branch of the Juniata being higher
than they were at the time of the Johns-
town flood after floodtide. More damage
bas been done to this division of the Penn-
sylvania than at any time in its history. A
number of railroad bridges have heen wash-
ed away and the tracks in lower places cov-
ered for miles. The worst damage was
done the road between here and Cumber-
land, and as a consequence no trains has
gotten through today and the indications
are that all traffic between here and Cam-
berland will be suspended for several days.
The great ice gorge at Mann’s Choice burst
this morning and with a roar that could be
heard for miles, crashed in the fine new
country place. crushing it like an egg shell
and carrying the broken timber and every-
thing else in its way. The lower part of
town was badly flooded. The first stories
of the houses are under water. The elec-
tric light plant is submerged and conse-
quently the town was in total darkness.
The water is higher in Everett than it has
ever been. The water is above the count-
ers in several business houses of the town.
LANCASTER, Feb. 28,—The condition of
the Susquehanna is practically unchanged
tonight, rising and falling as intervals and
with the water at about a seven foot rise.
The ice, however, is piled high at places
and is within two feet of the bottom of the
Pennsylvania railroad bridge. The great
mass of ice jammed against the upper side
of the bridge still towers from eight to ten
feet above its floor. This evening loaded
freight cars were run on the bridge to give
it additional weight. Considerable ice is
now coming down the river and packing
against that already jammed at this poins.
A message from Columbia at midnight
said the water is rising rapidly above that
place, having gone up fourteen inches in
the past hour at Marietta. This would
seem to indicate that the fears of another
freshet, resulting from today’s rain and the
recent melting, are about to be realized.
The flood water should reach Columba
shortly. The effects of its striking the
gorges at this place can only be surmised,
but the situation is considered very grave
by those familiar with previous floods.
HARRISBURG, March 1.—At midnight
the Susquehanna stood seventeen feet ahove
Jow water mark and was rising at the rate
of eight inches an hour. The plant of the
Central Iron and Steel company was par-
tially submerged and cannot be operated.
This will be a serious loss to the mills,
which are crowded with orders.
READING, Feb. 28.—This city to-day
experienced the worst flood in its history
and to-night the city is in darkness, owing
to the fact that the electric light plant has
ceased operations and the gas works are
flooded. The main streets are flooded and
travel is suspended. Hundreds of families
are held prisoners in their own houses and
boats and horses were in many instances
used to rescue families from imperiled
homes. The cellars of the many business
houses and private dwellings are flooded.
The flood was caused by the bursting of
Stover’s dam. Small creeks in the vicinity
have also swollen.
PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 28.—Heavy rains
and melted ice and snow during the past
week have resulted in the Schuylkill river
going out of its banks and causing the
greatest flood in that waterway since 1864.
From its source in the lower authracite
coal regions to this city where it empties
into the Delaware river, a distance of 120
miles, damage bas been done that cannot
at this time be estimated. Swollen creeks
have added to the flood and to-night the
river is still rising. Beginning with Potts-
ville, the largest town at the upper end of
the Schuylkill, every town on its banks to
this city is more or less damaged.
CONNELLSVILLE, Feb. 28.—The highest
stage of water known in many years has
made the Youghiogheny a raging torrent
to-night. The rise began during the early
hours this morning. At 8 o’clock the wa-
ter was at a flood stage and rising at the
rate of a footan hour. By noon the water
began to flood the lower portion of New
Haven. People began to move from their
houses when surrounded by water. This
afternoon the water rose more than a foot
an hour and rapidly spread over the lower
portions of the district. To-night all the
lower portion of New Haven is submerged.
Only the tops of some of the houses can be
seen and the families are being sheltered at
the homes of the more fortunate.
WILLTAMSPORT, March 1.—At midnight
the West Branch of the Susquetianna river
registered nineteen feet above low water
mark and was rising slowly. No danger
is apprehended.
WILLIAMSPORT, March 2.—The West
branch of the Susquehanna river reached
its highest stage at this pointat 6 o’clock
Saturday night, when the gauge registered
23 feet 3} inches ahove low water mark.
Since that hour the water has slowly reced-
ed and at 6 o'clock to-night the gauge
stood at 19} feet.
Beyond the flooding of a few cellars
practically no damage was done by the
high water in this city. :
Traffic on all railroads was re-opened to-
day and the officials report to-night that
all trains are running regularly.
WILKESBARRE, Feb. 28.—The Wyoming
valley was visited by a terrific rain and
wind storm, accompanied by heavy thunder
to-day. At times the wind blew a gale,
blowing down out-buildings and fences
and uprooting trees.
The creeks feeding the Susquehanna
river became raging torrents, and, over-
flowing their banks, did a great deal of
damage to property.
Toby creek swelled to twice its normal
size and carried everything before it. Some
farmers near Dallas saw their live stock
carried down the creek. Mill creek over-
flowed its banks early in the day aud the
surplus found ite way into this city. Ina
short. time Canal street was covered with
several feet of water and many of the resi-
dents vacated their houses temporarily.
SIX MEN DROWNED.
WILKESBARRE, March 1.—Six men were
drowned in the floods in this vicinity.
They were : Frank Pollock, Edwardsville;
lost while trying to cross Toby’s creek this
afternoon.. E. Huffman, fell into Ply-
mouth creek last night. Willian Walters,
of Wilkesharre; carried away this afternoon
by the current while trying to cross a
flooded road. Guiseppe Poancetti, blown
from bridge into stream at Avoca last
night. James McGuire, of Miners Mills,
Lehigh Valley railroader.
Fisher and McGuire were brakemen on
a train which the company loaded and ran
on the Bridgeport bridge over the Lehigh
last night to hold it down. One span broke
and they, with several cars, were carried
into the flood. The river reached thirty-
one feet here at midnight, and then, the
ice gorge breaking at Nanticoke, it fell to
twenty-two feet in half an hour. Since
then it has risen to twenty-nine feet and is
still rising.’ Hundreds of houses at Fir-
wood, Riverside, Buttonwood, South
Wilkesbarre, Duck Pond, Parsons and
Miners Mills are under water and abandon-
ed. The village of Westmoor, opposite
this city. is surrounded by water and the
people cannot get out.
A big ice floe this morning wrecked one
span of the traction company’s bridge at
Plymouth. Bridges at Luzerne, South
Wilkesbarre, Miners Mills and Mill Creek
have been washed away. The Lehigh Val-
ley railroad is more severely damaged than
at any other time in its existence. The
train which left here at noon yesterday is
stalled at White Haven, and the train due
here from the north at 2 o’clock yester-
day afternoon is held at Coxton by a wash-
out. So many wires are down that the
railroad people cannot just tell what the
damage to their roads is. The Central
Railroad of New Jersey and the Pennsyl-
vania have large stretches of their track
washed out and many bridges are gone.
The Delaware and Hudson restored com-
munication on one track north this after-
noon. The mines throughout the entire
region are idle owing to the flood.
WILKESBARRE, March 2.—A heavy
windfall and rush of water from its upper
tributaries caused the North Branch of the
Susquebanna river to rise rapidly to-day.
At eight o’¢lock this morning it was twen-
ty-eight feet above the low water mark,
and at noon had reached the thirty foot
mark. At 10 o’clock to-night the guage
showed thirty-one feet and three inches.
It is thought that there will be another
rise of a few inches before the water re-
cedes. To-day’s high water mark is equal
to that of 1865, which has always been
known as a record-breaker. ;
The water is over the banks of the river
from Pittston to Nanticoke and resembles
a vast lake. Nearly one half of the city is
under water. At West Moor, Firewood
and Riverside nearly all the residents va-
cated their houses. The water had reached
the first stories and was gradually going
up to the second. The people who linger-
ed too long had to be removed in boats.
The cellers of the Sterling and Wyoming
Valley hotels and many mercantile houses
in the central part of the city were filled
with water early in the day.
The people living on River and adjoin-
ing streets, which is the principal resident
portion of the city, were hemmed in by
the water and were unable to leave their
homes unless by boat. All the streets in
West Pittston are under several feet of
water.
Two hundred families living in the low-
lands in the town of Plymouth had to
leave their houses hastily this afternoon,
the waters covering the floors and putting
out the fires. The body of Mrs. Rowland,
who died this afternoon, had to be remov-
ed from the premises on the boat, as there
was danger of the house being carried
away. Dr. W. J. Butler had to be rowed
in a boat to a house at Riverside to attend
a woman who shortly afterwards gave birth
to a child.
At Nanticoke several houses were swept
away by the rushing waters and the people
living in them bad a narrow escape with
their lives. The flooding of the boiler
room of the power houses of the Wilkes-
barre and Wyoming Valley Traction com-
pany disabled the electric railway system
of the whole valley. The Lehigh Valley
railroad was able to get a train through
from Mauch Chunk this afternoon. It was
the first train from the east since Friday
afternoon. It will take a week before the
roadbed is in such shape as to permit the
running of trains on schedule time. The
tracks of the Delaware, Lackawanna and
Western railway between this city and
Pittston are covered with several feet of
water. Several washouts are reported along
the line of the Central railroad of New Jer-
sey. Itis not known when this road will
be able to resume the running of trains.
Three feet of water covers the tracks of the
Pepnsylvania railroad branch road at But-
tonwood.
Reports from the mines show that many
of them were flooded and it will take some
days before they can be pumped out. This
will curtail the output of coal. Nine lives
have been lost so far. The casualties for
the past twenty-four hours were thiee.
William P. Reilly hired a cab from Rich-
ard Beckers to drive him across the river to
his home in Luzerne borough early this
morning. The carriage, horses and oc-
cupants were caught in the swift current
on the roadway above the North street
bridge and carried down stream. The
horses were quickly drowned. Reilly
clung to a limb of a tree, but was drown-
ed before help could reach him. Beckert
landed on a big cake of ice. His cries were
heard in the darkness. Two men started
after him in a boat and after floating around
on the ice for an hour he was rescued. The
other victims were unknown. One is be-
lieved to be a tramp who had taken refuge
in a barn that had been swept away.
The damage to property is already esti-
mated at $1,000,000.
HARRISBURG, March 2.—The second
and third piers of the famous old camel-
back bridge, on the Harrisburg side, were
washed away by high water early this
morning. The bridge was built in 1816
and was probably the oldest hridge across
the Susquehanna river. It is owned by
Harrisburg capitalists and will immediate-
ly be rebuilt. Much damage has been done
by the high water in and about Harrisburg.
The Pennsylvania railroad’s steel bridge at
Rockville is in danger and the company is
sending its trains over the Cumberland
Valley bridge at Bridgeport. Three of the
piers are badly damaged, and if the water
goes much higher itis expected that the
damaged section will be carried away. The
water has done no damage to the $1,000,-
000 stone bridge which the company is
building at Rockville. The Pennsylvania
Steel works, at Steelton, and the iron and
steel mills in South Harrisburg, have heen
forced to close down on account of water in
the fly wheel pits.
South Harrisburg is under water and
many of the families in that locality are
living in the upper stories of their homes.
Last night 200 persons sought safety in the
school house at Lochiel.
The water has been receding since noon,
although it is feared it will again rise
when the volume of water up the river
comes down. Street car travel between
Harrisburg and Steelton is badly crippled
by high water. The Pennsylvania rail-
road tracks between Middletown and South
Harrisburg are covered with water in some
sections.
SCRANTON, Pa.; March 2.—Incessant
rain all day caused the Lackawauna to rise
to-day at noon and in five hours it bad in-
creased its depth thirty inches. It had
receded five feet prior to this, however,
and when the rain ceased at nightfall dan-
ger of a repetition of Friday’s flooding sub-
sided.
The Delaware, Lackawanna and West-
ern company was tied up Saturday night
by the overflowing of the Delaware at Del-
aware Water Gap and a washout at Elm-
hurst. Traffic was resumed at noon to-
day. It is the only road, except the local
line of the Delaware and Hudson, that is
now open. Hundreds of flood-bound
travelers from Wilkesbarre are flocking
here to get to New York and Philadelphia.
Joseph Gallagher, a 14-year-old boy, of
Taylor, was drowned by falling from a
bridge into the river, and James O'Malley,
a miner 35 years of age, who has not been
seen since Saturday, is supposed to have
lost his life in crossing Keeser Creek on his
way home from work.
PHILADELPHIA, March 2.—The Schuy!-
kill river is again within its banks and
close to its normal condition to-night. The
work of cleaning up was begun during last
night and to-day the railroads which skirt
the shores of the river resumed operations.
the first train out of the Baltimore and
Ohio railroad depot, at Twenty-fourth and
Chesinut streets, left at 7:30 o’clock this
morning for the west. The last train out
of the depot previous to the flood left on
Friday evening. Service to Pottsville and
Reading over both the Pennsylvania and
Reading roads from this city'is again in
operation.
The destruction wrought by the storm
was so great that many industrial estab-
lishments along the river’s bank will be
unable to resume work for several days.
Quite a number of buildings used for manu-
facturing purposes had their foundations
weakened and machinery clogged with
mud. Thousands of persons visited the
scenes of the flood to-day and watched the
hundreds of workmen clearing away the
debris and pumping the water out of cel-
lars and houses and other buildings.
THE FLOOD AT PITTSBURG.
With the recession of the rivers at 9
o'clock Saturday night the great flood of
1902 began to pass into history. The flood
reached the crest at 6:20 o'clock in the
evening. when the official stage at the
Market street gauge was 32.4 feet, within
.9 in. of a foot of the record made on Feb.
6, 1884. The Allegheny river became sta-
tionary at 6 o'clock, when the marks at
Herr’s Island dam showed 35.8 feet.
No flood ever caused more wide spread
damage and suffering. Early Saturday
morning all street car traffic was suspended
to Allegheny. Railroads were crippled and
suburbanites had great difficulty reaching
the city. Wagons took the place of trolley
cars and hauled people across the waters
that backed up Sixth street and other
streets leading to the bridges across the
Allegheny river. Residents of the west end
were compelled early in the day to make a
detour over Mt. Washington to reach the
main city. Mills lining the river banks
were compelled to close, throwing thous-
ands of men out of work. In the two cities
fully 30,000 men were thrown idle.
The loss is incalculable. Furnaces are
ruined in many mills and it will require
days to clean the machinery. Fine engines
are coated with mud and rusted by the
water. The loss that will be felt most will
fall on the workmen, who will be compell-
ed to remain idle for several days. A safe
estimate is that $100,000 per day will not
cover the loss from this cause alone.
The mail service was crippled, every
train arriving late on all the railroads. On
the Pittsburg and Lake Erie railroad trains
did not leave the station at all Saturday.
The water covered the tracks between the
station and the Point bridge several feet
deep. At Sawmill run it was also away
over the tracks.
The Baltimore and Ohio suffered greatly
by the loss of bridges, and was compelled
to send passengers for the east through
Wheeling and Grafton.
The Pennsylvania railroad was in the
best shape, and as soon as the street car
service in Allegheny suspended trains were
run from the union depot every five or ten
minutes. Trains were alsoadded on the
Panhandie between the city and Carnegie.
The city engineers made examinations o-
all the bridges in the afternoon. The Six-
teenth street bridge over the Allegheny was
ordered closed by Director Leslie, of Pitts-
burg, and Director McAfee, of Allegheny.
The bridgesat Herr’s Island and Forty-
third street were also closed. .
Sugar as mn Food.
Rheumatic people are recommended to
leave sugar alone for fear of its developing
acids which areapt to be injurious to them.
Some physicians, however, do not deny
sugar to rheumatic people. Gouty persons
are forbidden sugar; but some maintain
that while gouty subjects who are fat
should not take sugar, those who are thin
may do so. The end of the story is that
sugar is a very valuable food on the whole,
and that its alleged injurious properties
are to be limited to those cases in which
there is gouty disease, diabetes or other
conditions in which it is inadmissible.
As for tooth decay, it is not pure sugar
itself that causes tooth decay, but the im-
purities with which sweets are often load-
ed. Those negroes who live largely on
sugar have the finest teeth in the world,
and for that matter tooth decay is an ail-
ment that has often to be referred back to
our forefathers for its causation, rather
than to be laid $o the credit of the food we
ourselves consume.
Beef Heavier than Woman.
The Pittsburg Zimes tells of a Sharon
woman, Mrs. Samuel Coxson, going into a
butchers shop during his temporary ah-
sence. When he returned the woman
said : ‘I might have walked off with a
quarter of beef while you were out.”” The
butcher replied : ‘‘Well, if you can carry
one home, you are welcome to it. At this
Mrs. Coxson walked across the shop, lifted
a qaarter from the hook, shouldered it, and
carried it three squares to her home. The
butcher looked an in astonishment but said
nothing. The meat weighed 116 pounds
and the woman 110.
Snowdrift’s Tragic Secret.
A force of workmen engaged in shoveling
snowdrifts in an endeavor to open the coun-
try roads near Dale Station in Venango
county, uncovered a hose froze to death,
attached to a sleigh. Relays of men are
Oiaring the vicinity in an effort to find the
river.
