600 feet of trestle was washed away, At

There we're about fifty people from
this city and twenty-five OF thirty from
Benwood and Bellaire who took advant-
age yesterday OF the cheap excursion
rate offered by the Baltimore < Ohio to
Philadelphia and Atlantic City and re-
turn. The majority Of them went out
on the fast express via Pittsburgh at
6:20 o'clock last evening. Among those
who went out on this train were Mr..
and Mrs. Henry speyer, Mr.: n. Z; Whit,
aker and daughter, Miss Elsie, Mr.. and
Mrs. John Moffat, Mr.. and Mrs. Frank
Stamm and Mr.. Bremen OF Bremen &
Schaefer. The train was an unusually
long one and had to have a helper on
the Sixteenth street grade. 1t had ut
tached one OF the company's best sleep
ers and everything was carefully looked
after that could in any way add to the
comfort Of the excursionists.

as
Tho Damage Immease-The Elm Grove
Road md Pike.
In the vicinity east of Wheeling, so
far as the almost impossible condition
of the roads made it possible to learn,
the destruction wreaked by the flood
was fully us serious as in and near the
city. Henry shallcross managed to get
in from Elm Grove by walking around
over Chapline hill. Mr.. W. A. Isett
drove in from out the pike. From these
and other gentlemen the condition OF
affairs was learned to be serious.
The bridge over Woods run, at Leath-
erwood, OF the Wheeling & Elm Grove
road, was washed away, and that road
from Stackyard hollow TO the Toll Gate
was almost entirely ruined. The pike
was in places covered six feet deep with
water. Fences were demolished, bridges
damaged, and travel was dangerous and
all but impossible. At places wagon
floated and the horses swan.
At Elm Grove the Chambers coal tip
pie was washed away, with several cars,
the scales, and number Of small tene-
ment houses above the coal works were
all carried of aud demolished.
It was reported that kimmins's store
was overturned. 1t was so badly flooded
that telephone communication was cut
Off early, and the Western Union oper-
ator had to desert his office, which was
in the store, before the food reached its
worst.
The historic Clay monument at the
Cruger place was undermined by the
water and toppled over.
There was a seemingly authentic re-
port that four children were in one OF
the small houses swept away, and that
they were drowned, but the names
could not be learned.
A new house partly finished and oc-
cupied by the family OF the owner, Mr..
Hill, was overturned.
There was bad slip on the Baltimore
& Ohio road beyond Elm Grove. The
wrecking train was sent out to repair
the damage. Thepassenger train which
left here at $40 p. H., with number OF
excursionists for Atlantic City, is sup
posed to be stuck at this slip, but as the
wires are down and the poles even
swept away, nothing definite could be
learned.
A party of several hundred people
we're caught ut the Park, and the de-
struction Of the Elm Grove road kept
all OF them there but few who got in
in buggics.
The full extent of the damage cannot
be told, The Peninsula was raging
sea. Joseph Marshall lost all his crops
there. Indeed, about every farmer and
gardener in all the valleys OF the county
are heavy losers.

The Newark, Ohio, AdrOcatc, of We'd
nesday, says: The members OF the City
Council, together with those who ac-
companied them on their visit TO Wheel
ing, returned from the Nail City about
8 a. IN. to-day. Each and every one OF
them came back with tongues of praise
for the hospitality and courtesy every.
where shown them in this beautiful and
thriving city Along the Ohio. In addi-
ton to the fourteen members OF the
City Council, something like twenty
five or thirty citizens accompanied the
expedition, which left here ut 5 q. m.
on the Baltimore e. Ohio, in coach
especially provided for them through
the kindness OF the Baltimorc& Ohio
railroad. No incident worthy OF note
occurred on the way down. Word
had been sent to Mayor Seabright, and
he was promptly on hand at the depot
to extend a hearty welcome to the dis
tinguished strangers. On their arrival
the gates OF the city and the walls
thereof like unto Jericho fell down and
the freedom OF the municipality was
theirs. A drive TO the Mcclure house
where breakfast was served was the first
order of the day. Thence to ride on
the electric street railway which pleased
everybody very much and hasty sur
vey Of the brick street paving and the
morning was gone. In the afternoon
they were taken on q dummy TO the
City Park, six miles out, where they
whiled away several delightful hours in
ono Of tho most beautiful spots in the
world. Returning they viewed the
cemetery and later was escorted TO va
rious points Of interest about the city.
The greatest attention and courtesy was
shown them, and an earnest invitation
given them to remain over night as the
guests of the city. But they we're ohlig-
ed to decline all these kindnesses and
return Mt 10 o'clock last night. The
counciimen and their invited guests
have every reason to long remember this
day us one Of the most pleasant in their
lives. The visit will yet more firmly
bind together two cities on the Balti-
more & Ohio road which have SO many
interests in common.

THE loss IN TOWN.
SOME Estimates of the Damage to Iudi-
yidunls or Firms.

Some Estimates of the Damage to Iudi-
vidunls or Firms.
The flooding OF houses and stores
caused serious damage and loss in the
heart Of the city. The aggregate loss
cannot be definitely stated. All along
Market, Main, Twelfth, and Fourteenth
streets the cellars were flooded. McLain
Bros, the druggists, bad much valuable
stock ruined in the cellar, but could not
estimate their loss. Noble Bros, the
matters, VnnKeuren's Dairy restaurant,
Dingcr Bros, matters, all had small
losses.
Probably the heaviest losers are Messrs.
Frew 4 BertSchy. The water came into
their building through the roof and sky
light. On their stock of furniture, ETC.,
they estimate the loss at from 81 500 to
$500. 1t may reach 5000.
The Western Union Telegraph office
had foot OF water on the floor, but
got it swept out pretty well, and Mana
ger Tracy said he would be in pretty
good shape, locally, by noon to-day.
The wires are in bad shape, however,
some OF the poles being washed away.
A little water got into the INTELLIoHN-
GER cellar, but did not do any damage to
speak Of.
Joseph speidel & Co. had about two
feet of water in their cellar. Their loss
could not be learned, but will be heavy.
George X. McMeehen 4 Son had
about two feet OF water in their cellar.
They can at present make no estimate
OF what was in the cellar or Of the loss,
The goods there, they think, were prin-
cipally canned goods, which would not
be damaged except the exterior OF the
packages.
James Mccullough, hardware, says his
loss will not exceed $50. Wickham's
base ball exchange had about six inches
Of water on the first floor, but business is
not interfered with.
MUM & Brandfass had about $500
worth OF stock in their celler, but fortu-
nately it was raised from the floor and
there was no damage. They escaped by
about two inches.
John Sells had about 500 worth Of
paper damaged in his cellar.
L. S. Deiapiain, Son & Co. lost not
more than $50. NJ. Reilly escaped with
out any loss. Bremen & Schaeter had
about 5000 worth OF sugar in the cellar
but the damage will not exceed $3.50.
Neiii & Eiiingbam had about $4,000
worth OF stock in their cellar. Their
loss is about $50. F, II, LOnge lost $500
on n 81 900 stock OF paints in the cellar.
J. W. Hunters cellar was well stocked
with seeds, &c, which will probably be
ruined, as three feet Of water was in his
cellar.
OF course these are but fragmentary
estimates. On the streets covered by
these firms there isprobably not a house
that did not suffer somewhat.
