Terrible Scenes of Five Years Ago
Being Repeated.

JOHNsToWN, Pa, Nav 20.-The heaviest
ramstorm since the big flood of 1889 ceased
this morning and early light disclosed
flooded streets aud all the alleys aud Gel
lars full of wafer. Merchants here worked
all night getting goods out of the cellars.
Fifty feet of stone wall along the Cone
maugh River was washed away and crops
in the vicinity were ruined, eutailIng loss
of thousands of dollars.
Reports from Ebenburg at 10 o'clock to-
night say the heaviest rain since 1889 Is fall
ing there and the streets are under water.
Bridges across small streams are swept
away. The report says farm crops are
washed out. The rain at EDenburg con-
tinues and the river here is likely to be
again much swollen when the streams In
the north empty into it. The ringing of
the river bells is the only thing which has
prevented heavy destruction if not an ex-
tensive loss of life The water was higher
last night than at any time since the big
food. The Chesap peake and Ohio Railroad
tracks were flooded and trains were much
delayed. Streetcar lines stopped last night
This evening the water was 13 feet 9
inches in Pittsburg and in Stonoy Greek
10 feet. The damage to bridges and crops
is reported very heavy.
Tom McVealers, lad 13 years old, was
drowned in the Conemaugh River to-day
while trying TO ride log.

Strange Disappearance of a Schooner
After Flying Signals of
Distress.

CHICAGO, May 90 The friends and
relatives of four young men living at 126
Ambrose street, who bired a boat at the
Van Buren, street pier last Thursday
afternoon for a fishing excursion, and were
last seen rowing in an easterly direction
on the lake, have had no tidings of them
since. 1t is thought they were lost in the
storm which put in its appearance about
O'Clock Thursday afternoon, as the boat
was found to-day floating bottom up. The
men were Sigfried Kearns, Alfred Martin,
Max Braun and Max Rerkimer.
Another wreck may have been added to
the long list of ill-fated vessels that have
gone to the bottom of the lake during the
prevailing storm.
Some painters at work on Calvary Gem
etery noticed a three masted schooner
about three miles off shore at noon. Two
of her masts were goue and distress sig
nal was flying.
They notified the Evanston life-saving
crew. The crew went to the point, but on
their arrival could see neither vessel Tor
piece of wreckage.
SHEBoYGAN. Wis.,, May 20.-Ths wind
storm has been increasing In velocity to-
day, and the heaviest sea ever known for

from shore. Her crew can be seen run
