Lock Haven, Pa, March 4.-The i'm
mense ice gorge, several feet high,
which lodged above this city several
weeks ago, and which proved menace
to railroad property, moved last night
and passed through the city on the six
foot rise without causing damage. All
danger is believed to have passed.
Richmond, Va, March 1.-THE water
in the James River is up Twenty-Five
feet at Columbia and is still rising.
There is heavy flush here and fears
are entertained of disastrous flood

tiers come down. Merchants in the
lower part of the city are removing
their goods.
Wilkesbarre, Pa, March 5.-The Sus-
Guehanna river rose rapidly to-day and
this afternoon it overfowed its banks
between Port Bowkle and Plymouth.
The lowlands between Wilkesbarre and
Plymouth on the west side of the river
are entirely submerged and the street
cars are unable to run. AT South
Wilkesbarre, the people living on the
lowlands were compelled to vacate their
homes. Some who remained in their
houses until the last moment had to be
taken away in boats.

BILE rainstorm here last night was fol-
lowed this afternoon by wind storm
that was cyclonic in its nature, and
great damage was done. Telegraph
poles along the line of the West Vir-

causing considerable damage. The
wind was so strong that pedestrians
were lifted off their feet.
Reports from towns along the West
Virginia Central and the Georges
Creek region are that great havoc was
wrought. A farm house a few miles
distant was raised and the inmates
barely escaped with their lives.

Charleston, w. Va, March 5.-The
Kanawha valley is flooded and nearly
all the towns along the river are under
water. The Kanawha reached the
height of forty-One feet and four inches

Considerable damage was done to

TO add to the suffering in the city
the gas and electric lights are cut OFF
and the streets are in total darkness.
All day long the water has been creep

Charleston, W. Va, March 5.-The
Kanawha Valley was visited to-day by
one of the worst floods in local history.
After several days of heavy rainfall
the Kanawha and Elk river in an I'M
precedented short time have covered al
most the entire valley. Charleston is
almost entirely under water. -Four
feet surround the State capitol. The
Mayor and leading citizens have open
ed a relief station and are distribute
ing provisions and clothing among the
suffering. Considerable damage has
been caused to the coal property along
the Kanawha river. The Winifrede
Coal tipple, dry docks and a dozen
barges were swept away about ten
miles above Charleston. The Black
Cat coal tipple, near East Bank, was
destroyed. Tonight the water works,
both gas plants, electric light works,
are shut down and the city is in dark
ness. Hundreds of families are quar-
tered in the City Building, Capitol,
Court House and other buildings.
Much distress prevails Considerable
distance of the Kanawha and Michigan
railway between here and Point Pleas

or five days before traffic is resumed.
The indications, however, are that to-
night the flood has reached its height
and will commence to fall by morning.

A FRENCH HORROR.
The Naval Magazine in the Depart

Soldiers and Citizens Killed.
Forty Bodies Recovered.
BULLETIN:

BULLETIN:
Toulon, March 5.-The naval powder
magazine of La Goubran, between La
Seine and Toulon, in the Department of
Var, Southern France, exploded at
half-past two o'clock this morning. ,
All of the soldiers on duty at the
magazine were killed, and a number of
inhabitants of the surrounding district,
the buildings of which were razed, also
fell victims.
Forty corpses have already been re-
covered The cause of the explosion is
not known.
Fifty thousand kilogrammes Of black
powder exploded. 1t looks as though
a volcanic eruption had occurred, the
country being swept almost bare within
a radius of two miles, houses destroyed,
trees overturned and distorted, fields
devastated and covered with tones and
impalpable black dust.
Some of the stones are enormous.
One weighing fifty kilogrammes fell in
the suburb of Pone de Las. Signs of
the explosion are evident in all the
suburbs of Toulon and in the city it.
self. Even at st. Jean de Var, five
miles distant, windows were shattered
and doors battered in.
Later reports show that of the sew
en- sentries, four were killed outright
and the others were severely injured,
the corporal being literally scalped
and the scalp overhanging his face like
a veil.
A large number of soldiers are now
employed in clearing away the debris,
but the work is very difficult.
1t is impossible to ascertain accur-
ately the number killed, but it is be-
lieved that no fewer than a hundred
were injured.
Although it was a clear night, the
explosion was so terrific as to produce
a slight rainfall.
Fortunately the neighboring maya
zines escaped. 1t is now believed that
the explosion originated in chemical
decomposition in smokeiess powder.
There is no suggestion of foul play.
To-day the whole city is in mourn
ing, flags are at half mast, the theatres
are draped and the casinos closed.
Both the government and municipal
authorities are forwarding relief funds.
Four of the injured have succumbed
to their injuries. 1t is believed that
fifteen are still buried in the debris.
All the bodies were terribly mutila-
ted. Sixteen were found in the rocks
near the shore, and it is feared others
were precipitated into the sea.
A vehicle moving along road near
the sea was lifted bodily into the wa
ter by the force of the explosion, two
Of it's occupants being drowned.
The scene at the village OF La Gou-
bran was appalling.

 From Mr. Duponts remarks it may be safely inferred that the rough work of exploring a railway route will be completed in less than twelve months and the way will then be open for pri- vate enterprise to connect the klondike and eastern centers of supply and dis tribution. The completion of such d railway would mean the opening up of the rich quartz mines that are nWo lying undevelopcd in the Yukon terri tory owing to the vast cNpcn-c of tax ing in machinery and shipping out ore.
