UNLESS A HEAVY RAIN SHOULD CONE.
The committee Of merchants appointed to
look after the river held no meeting to-day.
Members Of the committee stated to-day that
there was no immediate danger, and that II the
weather OF to-day should continue several days
longer the ice would probably 60 out Of the river
without any assistance from the committee.
What is most feared is a rain, which will pre-
c1Pitate q flood. In case IL rains the committee
Will immediately employ tugs, and set them at
work breaking the ice in the harbor.
