POKT DEPOSIT. March Slice gorge here
has passed away and the river is clear of ice.
The river is rising slowly, but no alarm is
felt as the water freshet can do no harm.
WILLIAMsPoRr, PA, March 81. The
river rose six inches last night. The ice AT
Lock Haven commenced moving last night.
but stopped at the head OF the boom, seven
miles above here. Glen Union gorge com
menced moving AT nine O'Clock this morn
ing 1t is hoped that ice in the dam and
boom here will move out before the ice ffom
Glen Union reaches here. At Watsontown
The river rose seven inches, but everything
safe.

rose one foot iasl night and is still rising
Lehigh Valley railroad track, between
Wiikesbarre ard Pittston, lis covered with
SIX inches OF water. The river is now Is feet
above low water mark. Crowds ara con
gregated along the river bank in anticipa-
ton OF the gorge moving, which may occur a {
any moment. The weather is mild a ID

DELAWARE WATER GAP, PA, March 81.
The river here il continually on the rise,
and has now reached a stage that may bring
the ice down at any time. Reports from
above say that the ice gorge is now in mo-
ZION, or rather that portions of it are being
showed from place 10 place by action of the
manner of huge dam. The water must
certainly reach such a height that Its power
will be greater than the ice can resist, and
then everything viii come down together.
There is strong probability that this will
be accomplished to-day or to- morrow, par
ticularly as the sky is overcast and threatens
rain. Railroad officials are continually
travelling back and forth, and the utmost
anxiety is felt.

at Glen Union started this morning about 9
O'Clock, with rise in the river ae that point
OF II feet. The river here is rising now. The
