SPECIAL TO THE sENIINEL.l

CINCINNATI, Feb. ia shocking dis
aster is reported from the western part of
the city. Both the freight and passenger de-
pots of the Cincinnati Southern Railway
were undermined and fell into the sur
rounding water, carrying with them d
hundred or more people. The depots
were one story frame structures, resting
on Mclean Avenue, which was almost
covered by water. Both sides were filled
with water from 80 to 50 feet deep. 1t
had become so soaked as to melt, and the
catastrophe was further hastoned by the
breaking of the sewer, which sent a cur
rent along the bank. Crowds of people
have been in the vicinity looking at the
floods, and it is supposed they are among
the victims. 1t is impossible yet to tell
the extent of the disaster at the Southern
Railroad depot. Only the freight depot
went down. A great crowd were looking
at the flood when Ryan's Restaurant, a
small building near by, vent down. A
crowd rushed over on the platform of the
depot to see what was the matter, when
suddenly the whole depot collapsed and
sank in the water. The track at the
same time was depressed and the cars
standing close by ran into the depression,
covering the people who had gone down
with the falling structure. Not one body
had been recovered at l o'clock, nor could
the bystanders give any intelligent account
of how many had escaped. The work of
recovering the drowned will be exceeding
ly difficult, as the place is isolated and
there is danger of other parts Of the street
melting as this portion did. It is posi-
BILE, however, that the break in the great
sewer in Mclean Avenue caused the depot
to sink.
