Drowned.

Drowned.
At Martins Ferry the usual damage
about the Cleveland & Pittsburgh rail-
road was done, Clark's run overlooking
its banks, and carrying tons Of dirt,
stones and logs down the track. Nearly
every house from the beginning OF
Paull's addition to the Elson glass house
was surrounded by water, rubbish and
stones, and the railroad track literally
covered with old cross ties and logs,
The run coming through Seabright's
addition overlooked, covered the roads
with deblis, and Quilted the Cleveland 4
Pittsburgh track, and in its course to the
river filed cellars and floors with water
and mud.
Back OF Paull's addition the lowlands
looked like n small lake, covering the
g., L. 4 w. railroad from sight. The G.
q z, trains we're stopped at the Clarke
Run crossing, where tons OF sand and
gravel covered the track, and were una
bic to get through until this morning.
At the culvert passing under the O., L.
4 w, road at Mears' cooper shop, which
washed out the piling ten days ago, the
same damage was done again. The low.
lands directly back OF these contained
about fifteen feet Of water, which could
not get through the cuiYert.

great damage to both the Northern and
Bellaire & st. Clairsville railroads. The
latter road is a complete wreck, bridges
and road bed being washed out and
land slides being numerous all along the
line.
The engine is now lying in the drift
wood four miles down with a number Of
passengers. 1t will take weeks to repair
the damage. The former road is not
nearly so bad, although the damage is
great and it will take some time to put
It in running order.
Great damage was done to crops and
thousands Of dollars have been lost
thereby.
