Senator elect Elkins while the latter
was here making preparations for his
trip to Mexico and the West. The
courtesy of Senator Camden in thus

sonally, although politically they fight

What is Going ON Among the Boats and
BOatmen.

Boatmen.
Weather clear and warm.
River - feet 4 inches and falling.
The ferry boat Charleston was
brought up from the foot of the Island
yesterday morning and is now moored
to the float on the Island. She Will
likely commence running either to-day
or tomorrow.
The tow boat George Shiras left
PitsbWg Saturday afternoon with five
boats of coal for Louisville. This is
considered a rather dangerous under
taking by the rivermen on account Of
the present condition of the river.
The Lexington has been repaired
while lying up at the wharf and is now
i'm frst-class condition. She will re
sumo her regular trips in the Matamor-
as trade tomorrow morning. She will
leave here at 1890 a. m.
The river is still rising slowly and
Will probably go several feet higher
before the maximum stage is reached.
The gorge at Kittanning had not brok-
en- yesterday evening, but from reports
received ii probably broke last night,
or will to-day. Yesterday Oil creek
and the headwaters had poured out
their ice and water, and the smaller
streams were putting out large quanti-
ties of water. which was swelling the
Allegheny at Kittanning at the rate Of
six inches an hour The ice from above
was lodging at FoXburg and the head
of the gorge and the increa ing weight
of ice was being slowly buoyed up by
the rising river. The residents OF the
towns along the Allegheny were so
alarmed that they kept watch all night.
The feeling that the Kittanning bridge
will at least be injured if not swept
away bodily grew steadily as the move
ment of the ice was delayed. 1t is sim
liar to the bridge that was swept away
at Parker's Landing about ten years
ago by ice not so heavy as that in the
river now. The superstructure OF the
Kittanning bridge is rather light, but
the piers are as heavy as are ordinarily
put under bridges that far up the Allie
