DOE GULLY CURVES.

About half way between Cumberland
and Martinsburg on the Second Dlvis.
ion of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad
is picturesque spot known as Doe Gull.
". There is quite a little hill at this
point that the road goes through and
the approaches to this tunnel include
several reverse curves. The Company
has been engaged for the past two
months in removing these curves and
reducing the grades. The Chief En-.
gineer says that the improvement will
do away with one of the most objec.
tionable pieces Of track on the Second
Division. since Seven Curves were
eliminated, and will remove four re-
verse curves. 1t will not only make
much better riding track for fast train,
but materially assist the west-bound
freights in climbing this grade.

RIVER NEWS.
Heavy Rains at Nearly All the Upper
River Stations.
RAIN FELL HERE YESTERDAY
MORNING AND EVENING-RIV-
Err STARTED TO RISE IN THE
MORNING, BUT BECAME STA
TIONARY LATER-NO SIGN AS
YET OF A FLOOD AT PITTSBURG.

The river situation at this point is
very peculiar to say the least After
the gradual fall for the past few
days, the water in the channel here
suddenly stopped falling. At II a. M.
yesterday the river became stationary.
Then one of those unaccountable rises
began and at 5 p. m. the marks showed
a stage of Is feet and stationary. The
only way to account for the rise might
be a heavy rain at the headwaters of
some tributary, causing a heavy run
out. At midnight the marks showed
the river to be still stationary at Is
feet.
Some rain fell early in the morning
and late in the evening there was a
heavy shower of about a half hours
duration.
All day Sunday there were heavy
rains in the upper valleys. Should
the rains continue for day or two
longer, with the stage of water already
in the river the result might prove dis
asterous. If there is any snow left in
the mountains yesterdays rain will
have cleaned it all out.
Yesterdays boats were the Keystone
State for Pittsburg, at a. M; Ben
Hur for Pittsburg, at a. m; Kanawha
for Pittsburg, at 1 p. m. and the Ava
Ion for Parkersburg at II a. m. All
had good freight consignments. Pas
senger traffic on the river at the pres
ent is very light.
To-day's packets are the Bayne for
Steubenville at $50 p. M; Leroy for
Darlington, and the Ruth for Sisters
vile at $3.50 p. M, and the Ben Hur
for Parkersburg at p. m.
This week will see all the packets
out in their several trades. There is
a good stage of water to run in and
nothing to hinder them for some time
to come.
With a good coal boating stage on
the Pittsburg operators are rushing
all empties home as fast as possible to
take advantage of it. A number of
towboats with empties are due 10 pass
this point early this morning. The
James Moran passed up with a big
string of empties at midnight.
The ferry boat at Martins Ferry has
been all refitted during the time the
river was closed and is now in an ex-
cellent condition to resume business.
Midnight, raining.

NO INDICATIONS
OF Flood as Yet at Pittsburg-Raining
All Along the Allegheny.

All Along the Allegheny.
Special to the Register.
Pittsburg, Pa, February 26.-At 8
o'clock this evening there was II feet
31a inches of water in the Ohio river at
Davis Island dam. The stream is rising
and 10 or IA feet is expected by to-
morrow morning. There is no sign of
a food, notwithstanding heavy rains
to-day. Reports from up river stations
showed the streams are falling. Only
one place reported a rise. This was
Brownsville, where the river was COM
ing up slowly. Considerable rain fell
in the Allegheny Valley, but the Allie
gheny river continued falling. Coal
operators here expected the rains would
bring an unusually high stage Of water
Nearly all the coal has gone out. The
Little Fred left to-day with six barges
and one fiat. There are a few loaded
pieces still left in the pools and they
be rushed out on the present high wa
ter. The Keystone State and Ben Hur
packets arrived up after a battle with
the tail end Of the ice.

Last evening Mayor Sweeney was
seen after returning from the Smoky
City, and said: The visit of Chief
Clemans, Councilman Chew and myself
to Pittsburg has no particular signifi-
canoe so far as the city government is
concerned We went up on invitation
from Pittsburg officials and incidentally
investigated the Pittsburg system of
city government. We visited the build
ing of Public Safety and were presented
each with a copy of the reports for the
past year"
Mr. Sweeney when asked if the visit
of the Wheeling officials should be con-
strued as an intimation that some of
the stringent reforms in force and eff
feet in that city are TO find counter
part in Wheeling, he replied that so far
as he was concerned his principal OBJ
ject was to gain some information up
on certain municipal affairs with the
intention of incorporating it by way of
suggestion in his coming message to
Council, if deemed pertinent to condi-
lions here.
