ed thirty.s.1 feet even and still rising at
the old rate of two inches per hour. At
that time, however, it was not thought
possible that the rise would con.
tinue beyond 4 a. m., it having been re.
ported that the river became stationary
at Steubenville at midnight. Even at
this hour number OF business houses
were open and gangs Of men IN hand
ready to take stocks out OF collars near
the thirty-six foot line. 1t can be said
with certainty, almost, that the rive,
will become stationary at o. a. M,
with not over 36 feet / inches as the
maximum height.
An Associated Press dispatch received
at a. m. shows that the situation at
Pittsburgh has frightened. The dis.
patch follows:
The flood height has been passed aud
the waters are falling. Reports late to-
night from points up both rivers indi-
cate that the fall will be rrpid to.mor-
row. At midnight the Allegheny stood
% feet and falling; the Mononsahela at
% feet and failing. The upper Allie
cheny did not come out, and it is not
thought probable that it will, as the
cold wave will freeze up everything in
the mountains and hold the water back.

Heated Discussion OF the Anti. .Bevolution
Measure by Herr Auer.

hchteu DNCusloh OF tne hnti.bevOlution
Measure by Herr hurr.
BERLIN, Jan. S.-The roichstag ro.
assembled to-day and resumed tho do
bate on the auti.revolution bill. Herr
Auer said that the government intro.
duced this measure 80 that in the event
oil its expected rejection there would be
a pretext for the dissolution OF parlia-
ment, in order to obtain from new
parliament Increased grants for military
purposes.
Tho reason assigned for introducing
the bill, that tho existing penal laws
were inadequate, was not warranted.
Herr Auer declared that such argu-
ments were always used when it was
intended to curtail the liberties OF clti.
zens. The anti.revolution bill, he said,
was solely directed against the Social
Democrats. lie disclaimed any con-
nection with the Anarchists, and denied
that the Socialists were connected with
the broadsides recently cited by DR..
Rierhiding.
Herr Auer concluded with the asser-
ton that the agragrian. anti.semites
and lineal theologians could be easily
struck by tho bill. Not everyone agreed
that there was necessity for protect.
ing the monarchy. Large numbers of
Germans, he added, favored republic,
and there was growing tendency
toward Byzantine rule which betokens
national decadency. But the working
classes marched forward with courage
and deliberation, while the supporters
ot the bill displayed the white feather.
Tho debate on the anti-reyolution
bill will be resumed tomorrow.
