TRENTON, January lS.-Tbe flood
which commenced pouring down the
river yesterday and last evening, has
been very destructive 10 property in this
vicinity. 1t is reported to be the worst
that has occurred here since 1915. The
new depot in this city is rendered useless
for the purpose it is intended for, and
the passengers have to be carted in .
round about way to reach the Pennsyl.
vania eide OF the city in order to pro-
ceed south and west. At tJohn Taylor's
slaughter house. seven steers and one
hundred hogs were washed away by the
food, several OF which were drowned
Several bridges up the country have
been swept away and hoated down the

ice has given way this morning below
Bristol, and this will relieve the

PARKER's LANDING, January l9.-
About four o'clock this afternoon fire
broke ont in the Opera House saloon.
The flames spread rapidly in both di-
rectious, taking both sides Of the street
to the extreme upper end, and south to
the large building owned BY James
Morrison. The cause OF the fire is un .
known at present, but is supposed to be
the work Of an incendiary. The fol-
lowing buildings were burned: Spen-
GERS Opera House, J. A. Stalls livery
stable, Ed. Dolan's saloon and billiard
room, Kittanning saloon, owned by
uirsch & Hall, II. R. Fullerton's resi-
dence and Office, James Borgsin's
bakery, John Laughlin's residence, A.
W. Lewis grocery, A. c. Wilson's con
iectionery, H. L. A. Browns furniture
store, and several small stores and resi-
dences at the upper end OF the town
Chslfant Il Graf. hardware store;
Tom McConnelly, Office; J. R. Shirley,
residence; Union Hotel; shoe store,
name unknown; w. R Daley, grocery,
entire stock; A. Bennett, tin store;
Odd Fellows Hall, Transcript Office,
John Phipp's residence; Worthington's
livery stable; Oil Exchange Hotel the
Greeley House; G. B. Flock's barber
shop; McMansi's saloon; Briso's drug
store Lehman's shoe store; J. 6. GAL
ley's office and the Wallace House
When the FIRE first broke out the wind
was blowing pretty strong TO the north,
carving the flames rapidly in that
direction, consuming all combustible
matter in that direction very soon. But
about six o'clock it became perfectly
calm and the flames moved south ward,
rendering the checking OF it much less
difficult. The fire might have been
extinguished when it first broke out
had the engine been in proper order.
1t was promptly on the ground but
failed TO work. The inhabitants OF the
lower part OF the town entertained no
hopes OF escaping the fate OF the upper
end and moved everything out OF the
reach Of any possible danger. When
the FIRE fret started regular panic
prevailed. The streets were crowded
with vehicles and people rushing in
every direction. Strange to cay the
FIRE burned exactly to the house where
the fire Of two years ago stopped. At
8 o'clock it was completely under con-
troll and no further damage is sppre-
hended. The loss cannot be estimated
at present.
