The Gorges Remain.

BALTIMORE, Md, Feb. 13.-The warm
rain of last night and this morning caused
break in the ice gorge in the Susquehanna
river opposite Port Deposit. The water
backed up into the town with such rapidity
that the lower portion was flooded
almost Instantly. Several small dwell
ing were washed away, lumber
yards and Wharves are inundated, and the
Pennsylvania railroad depot was filled with
water TO depth of four feet. The tele-
graph Office had to be abandoned, and COM
munication with the place is entirely cut
off. Parties from there report the low
lying district TO be blOckaded with
ice, piled twenty feet high in places. At
Havre DE Grace the temporary bridge re-
IDENTIFY constructed by the Baltimore d Ohio
railroad was completely wrecked, and it
was reported that several lives were
lost, bnt the report lacks con-
firmation. Full particulars of the
flood cannot be obtained here tonight,
but heavy damage is believed TO have re-
suited. There is still heavy gorge on the
river, and the water is not running with
sufficient freedom to encourage the hope
that the hood will subside tonight. Travel
over the Columbia IL Port Deposit railroad
is suspended, as the tracks for over a mile
are entirely covered with ice and water.

LATE MINNEAPOLIS NEWS.
Washington Rink ReOPened With a
Fine Program of Sports.

under the management Of T. w. Eek, the

race between Will Amanda and W. NJ.
Woodside. The latter was han
dicapped half mile, Woodside
rode a Rudge safety machine, and Mile.
Armaindo rode Columbia. Woodside won.
He made the first two miles in $50, gaining
the half mile. Meanwhile Mile. Armaindo
was apparently not in good condition, and
failed to make as good time
as she recorded during her recen
exhibition. Her speed was regular, but
not fast. Albert SchOck, the champion,
gave an exhibition mile ride and was
greeted with cheers. The five-mile skating
race between r. E. Bromley and R. IL.
Elhert of Chicago proved the most in
tereSting feature of the evening owing to its
being so hOtly consested. Bromley won by
desperate effort in 1920. After the race
EIhert challenged Bromley to skate match
best two in three for 500 a side, which
was accepted and $50 forfeiture was put uI
by each. The races will occur on Thurs
day, Friday and Saturday evenings.
