has been prevailing down the Peninsula for sew

Saturday which continued at intervals until this
morning. In the dryest sections the rain fell in
torrents part of the time, thoroughly
saturating the earth and leaving
much water on the surface. Pas
sengers who came up over the Md. Il Del R. II. T.,
this morning, say that the track is submerged in
some places but not sufficiently 30 to impede the
passage of trains. At this end Of the State sew

in quantities to suit the requirements of the
country. The fall has been general throughout
the Peninsula and no section that we can hear
from has escaped.
