THE PERIL OF PARKER
Has Xot Been Exaggerated by the
Rcuorts of the liig Ice Gorge.
THE BUSINESS PART AN ISLAND,
In Case the Mass Breaks Up and Floods
the Alleshenj Tallej.

Takkek, Feb. IS. Various reports have
appeared as to the ice gorge situation here.
2sonc have overdrawn the situation. A
solid mss of iee, packed to the bottom for
ten or more miles in an unbroken stretch,
5n many places 20 or more feet thick, is
something unknown to our oldest inhabit
ant. Along Eiver avenue's entire length
the ice is jjorged from the bottom of the
river to the top of the bank, and even to
the foundations of many buildings. It is,
therefore, apparent to experienced river
men what an additional amount of rise
will be necessary to move it. Xo current
is here to assist the removal by blasting
with explosives.
The extreme north end of what is known
as ''The I'lats" is lower than in the main
or central part, and even somewhat lower
at the bae of the hill, so -in a flood the
business section is an island. Xo way has
T)een provided to prevent the overflows
irom surrounding this central higher ground.
As in the entire history of Parker she has
been the target of both fire and flood,
many now lear the completion or this bistort-
bv the total destruction of what is
know n"ns The Fiats."
At this writing porses are forming In the
Clarion river, which empties into the Alle
phenv one mile above heie. As the Clarion
riverisa narrow and deep stieam itgener
allv breaks up first. This is wneie our first
anil sieatest danger lies. The bridge at this
place is SCO feet Ion and for five miles
below the ai erase width of the liver is
about the same. The whole distance is
Rorsed from bottom to top.
At the water w oilcs the pumps are entirely
submersed, but are still Tunning. If no
I)reak occurs they can bo kent in motion
until the water leaches the fires, but they
are nearing this point now. The river fell
about 2 feet to-dav. There is no change in
the corse. It will take two days' Rood rain
totaitit. The weather is lossy, wnn indi
cation of rain.

At the opening of the court Joshua Douglass,
one of tho counsel for defendants, moved
that the Com t take the caso from tho jury,
and decide for the deferldants upon 'the
iound of insufficient evidence.
At thecnncluMon of the debate which fol
lowed, the Couit decided that there was not
sufficient evidence showing that G. B. Dela
materand T. A Delamater had knowledge
riiisolvency. A regards the defendant, G.
tv. Delamiter, there was, perhaps, some evi
dence that might go to the J ury, the Court
reserving the i-ight to render a decision on
the po.Mts mised bv counsel for G. TV. Dela
mater at some future time during the trial.
