Severe Damage to Mills and Dams.
Loss ABOUT Sc, 900, 600.

NORWICH, Conn.,, Feb. 10.
The heavy rains on Saturday and Saturday
night have swollen all the steams in this vicin-
lty to an almost unprecedented height. The
Shetucket and Thames at this place have over
flowed their banks, and the lower part of the
city is inundated. The connection of the
track between the New London, Northern and
Worcester Railroads has been submerged, and
in some places completely torn up, so that the
Boston train on Saturday night was compelled
to land the passengers at AlIyn's Point, where
they took the steamer. The dams in the Yam
tic, Shetucket and Quinnibaug have sustained
severe damage, and in several places have been
carried away entirely One hundred and fifty
feet OF the new dam at Oceun, fivemiles above
Norwich, has been carried away. Two large
holes were made in the dam at Sprague 8,
Obernam's paper mills, and half of Kings
wOolen mill at Eaglesville has been carried
away. The dams at Danielsonville and Plain
field have gone by the board, the latter carry
ing away SIX bridges in its progress Sturte-
wants mill on the Yantic is considerably dam
aged by the water and floating ice, which swept
through the lower story. AT Montville, seven
miles below Norwich, the large Dam of the
Pequot Company has been swept away
and the mill itself has been damaged to the
amount of from $4,000 to $4,000. The amount
of damage to mills and mill property in this
vicinity cannot be estimated yet, but so far as
heard from will not fall short of $15O,00O.
PROVIDENCE, r. l., Feb 10.
The heavy rain of Saturday night carried
away most of the snow and caused damaging
Hood in all our mill streams, surprising any
thing of the kind since 1887. Dams and
bridges are carried away in various parts of
ihe State, and many mills and mill tenements
were partially submerged. The Air Line Rail-
road bridge near Woonsocket is partially car
ried away. The loss by the flood in t.is yicin-
ity may reach one or two hundred Thousand
dollars; The Journal reports the fall of rain
on Friday and Saturday nights at four inches
and fifteen one-hundredths
