THE FLOOD IN OTHER PLACES.
Several Points in New York State Report
Serious Storm Damage.


Serious Storm Damage.
Hudson, N Y.-The heavy rains have
caused a great freshet in the Hudson and
all its tributaries in this vicinity. The
docks here are under three feet of water,
the highest rise for years, and considerable
damage has resulted, mostly to cotton in
store houses. Greeks have overflowed their
banks and bridges have been carried away
in all directions The lightkeeper at the
Hudson lighthouse escaped last evening
by means of "A boat on runners, and after
a hazardous trip succeeded in landing his
family The force of the ice is shaking the
lighthouse from its foundations.
Whitehall, N. Y.-The water in the
Wood creek is higher than at any time
during the past twenty-five years. The
large flume of the Champlain Silk mills
was swept away, and this will throw out
of employment 300 hands until the damage
can be repaired. The Whitehall Milling
company's power wheel was destroyed and
the electric light station flooded. Several
road bridges we're carried away.
Amsterdam, N. Y.-The heavy rain
caused the Chuctanuna to overflow, caus-
ing much damage to the mills and build
inrs along its banks. The bulkhead and
thirty feet of the trunk of the Forest Pa
per mills were washed away, together with
the footbridge across the Sanform dam.
The cellar of the city buildings was
flooded with six feet of water. All the
mills were badly damaged. 1t was neces-
sary to erect temporary bridges across
some of the streets. The Mohawk river
has overfowed the lowlands.
Saratoga N.Y.-During the storm three
dams at Schuylerville and all the bridges
between Ballston Spa and Rock City Falls
were carried away. The water was four
feet deep on several streets here. Saratoga
lake has risen three feet and Loughberry
lake five feet
Dover, n H-The Cocheco river is now
ten feet higher than known for years. The
! houses which border on the river are sub
merged,
Fonda, n. Y,-The Mohawk river has
overhown its banks at this point. The ice
| is intact although the river is free of ice a
few miles east. Schoharie creek is at the
highest point it has reached in years.
Gloversville, N, Y.-The power house Of
tho Cayadutta Electric road was sub.
merged and the fires extinguished, pre-
venting the running of the cars. Many
small bridges were carried away,
Springfield Mass.-All western Massa-
chusetts suffered by floods yesterday, the
great and sudden thaw causing the rivers
TO overflow their banks and sending the
ice down stream on the swift current,

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..
Preparations for the Great Struggle
to Take Place in Philadelphia.

Philadelphia, Nov. 20.-Harvard and
Pennsylvania meet tomorrow on
Franklin field in their annual contest
on the gridiron and the struggle be-
tween the two teams promises to be
one to the death. For almost the first
time this year Harvard will go upon
the field with its full VARSITY team in
tact and in fairly good condition. Here
tofore at all games this year Harvard
has been unable for various reasons to
play it's full strength throughout the
game, but tomorrow when they line up
against the Quakers they will have the
strongest eleven they have had this
year.
Since Monday night the Pennsylvania
men have been drawing in life and
strength among the mountains around
the Delaware Water Gap. The team
came back from the Gap tonight and
were given a royal reception by their
fellow students. This afternoon the
students of Pennsylvania almost to a
man assembled on the campus at the
university and $500 strong, headed by
brass band they marched to Broad
street station to meet the team. Near
" every man carried the cOlors Of
Pennsylvania, and when they massed
themselves upon the station platform
they made the big train shed ring with
their cheers and college song When
the team alighted from the train ar
irving at $40 there was wild rush of
enthusiastic students to greet them
and platoon of police, which had been
stationed about the exit gates. was
swept away by the cheering, bowling
mob of men who swarmed down upon
the players. 1t was only by main
strength that Captain Wharton and
his men forced their way through the
cheering mob, and, finally in despair.
of reaching the street, the players scat
tered and made an individual run of
1t 10 the street cars to take them to the
training house. After the escape Of
the players the students reformed into
ranks and marched to the Hotel Stem
ton, where they cheered for the Harv-
ard team and then the procession took
up its way to the university.
PENN VASTLY IMPROVED.
The Pennsylvania men looked
vastly improved by their couple of
days outing in the mountains and ev-
cry man is fit and ready to play to-
morrow for his life. The followers of
Pennsylvania cannot see how their
team can lose, and few Of them will
admN that, barring the fatal tumble
and block kick. which have created
such havoc with the Quakers' play this
year, that Harvard will even score. The
followers of Harvard are not so san
guine Of victory as they might be, Is
shown by the fact that they are de-
manding odds Of to in the betting.
Immense preparations have been
made for the game tomorrow, and the
stands inclosing the gridiron at Frank
lin field with their seating capacity Of
$4,000. promise to be filled tomorrow
with people. for, II Philadelphia is true
to its sporting instincts in any one
thing 1t is in foot ball. and all Phila-
delphians are almost a unit in their
loyalty and partisanship to the wear
ers Of the red and blue. The officials
for tomorrow's game will be wyckoff.
