TERRIBLE DESTRUCTION OF PROPERTY ON THE
BOATS, BAReEs AND TIpPLTs DESTROYED
RIVER CHANNELS DLocKED-A COAL FLEET
THREATENED WITH DEsTRucIIoN-rwELvx
MILLIONS WORTH OF PROPERTY SWEPT OFF.
Dx TELEGRAPH TO THE HERALD
rIrrsBuRG, Pa, Jan. Is, 1877.
To-day on either shore OF the Monongahela River,
from this city TO almost the head of navigation. the
devastation and ruin OF yesterday everywhere
apparent. Wrecks OF steamboats,, laden coal barges,
empty barges. coal tippes and iramo house flats
are strcwn In almost incxtricable confusion.
In some places great coal bargos are piled one
upon another and surrounded with hugo masses
OF leo In fanc.ful shapes to . height af-
teen and twenty feet For sixteen miles up stream
there can be noticed at once hourshing coal mines
strange absence OF coal tipples that either
tirey swept away sunk Tpples consist Of frame
work extending out into the river, upon which cars
and carts DO for the purpose OF dumping coal
into tho boats and barges. Tho cost Of . good
tppc, we'll supplied with shute and screens,
though soldly built the tippes wcrc moro straw Ia
she way OF tho huge masses OF Ice which noated
serious features OF ycstordays havoc s tho obstruc
ton 10 navigation.
THE RIVER cHAxSEL nLocKsD or.
In tho Ohio Rive At Brunots Island thousands upon
thousands OF bushels OF coal lie in the channel In
close proximity to IT, Some coal say that will
require months to remove these obstructons.
DESTRUCTION or PROPERTY AND IT'S EFvEcr on BusI-
NESS.
Another bad feature OF The situation is that all the
docks and nearly all OF the empty craft that have been
swept away badly injured as to be useless in
their present shape The result that tho operators
havc boats to hli and the works, In consequence
will have shut down. Tho injury and destruction
to the docks will prevent immediate repairing of
damaged boats and bargcs and tho sweeping away OF
Immense quantities OF material from the sawmils will
delay tho building OF new ones
TWO MILLION DOLLARS LOSS
It impossible 10 give tho aggregate losses but they
viii hardly fall much inside So O00, ,00O Que thing Is
certain, such disaster visited Pittsburg river
interests before However, most Of tho dealers able
stand the losses though perhaps number of them
may for time be crippled but the majority OF them
will quickly regain their feet.
In tho Ohio River, lust below tho city. is anchored
immense coal feet which barely escaped destruc.
tion by the gorge OF yesterday ana this neet Is now
raining heavily since noon, and II Is feared
that tho leo the Allegheny River which yet intact,
will como booming out crushing these heavily laden
barges like many eggshells. II to be hoped, how.
ever that they be removed TO place OF safety be-
fore the Ice In this stream let's go
GOAL sHlPPgR's ESTIMATE OF THE DESTRUCTION

correspondent to night at the Monongaheln House that
