A dispatch from Pitisburg, July %, says:
The storm of yesterday, though not so severe
in the city or immediate vicinity, was fearful
in its effects in surrounding villages and
country. The principal damage here was in
washing out Of streets and sidewalks. The
storm throughout the lower oil country was
very damaging. The oil towns Of Petrola
aud Harms Ctr suffered terribly. Twenty
Eve houses in the former place were swept
away and destroyed, and the line of railroad
between Parker and Harms City was submerg-
ed, bridges washed out, cnlverts destroyed
and the road bed ruined in many places. The
people Of that section in many instances barely
escaped with their lives. The rainfall up the
Monongahela valley and along the line OF the
Baltimore and Ohio railroad, winch skirts the
Yoaghiogheny, was the heaviest known Tor
years. Houses, fences, outbuildings, lumber
and other property were swept away ana
many Of the coal mines Hooded. The miners
in some OF them narrowly escaped drowning.
At Shroder's mines, near Elizabeth, the men
waded through water to their chins. Nearly
oil the railroad lines eentering here, with the
exception of the Pennsylvania Central, re-
port more or less damage and consequent
delay or traffic. The only known loss Of life
so far reported is that Of Mrs. Daily, who was
drowned in attempting to cross creek near
Shaners Station on the Baltimore and Ohio
railroad. The damage 10 growing crops has
been very great, but the loss cannot be esti-
mated. AT Irwin's Station the rainfall is re-
ported to have reached seven inches, and the
ioughiogheny Brunch railroad was damaged
in several places, the force Of the water being
so great as to break the steel rails.
In Philadelphia and vicinity there was
much damage to property, roads, and culyerts.
