Partial Breakup Office in the Ohio,

For the. second time within n month,
the fashionable suburb OF Leatherwood
out the Wheeling creek valley. WIS en-
quilted In healthy flood scare, which,
happily. was not more than a scare.
About s o'clock Sunday night, the Ice.
which was passing out OF the creek un-
der the influence of the rise from head
waters. became gorged under the
bridge, at Thompson's. short distance
below Leatherwood. The result was
the instantaneous rising Of the waters
above the gorge, and In very shcrt
time the creek was over its banks. and
the waters spreading over the LOVELY
ing ground at Leatherwood.
Some apprehension was manifested
upon the part OF the suburban residents.
owing to the fear that the gorge would
hold. but shortly before o'clock the
gorge was broken. and the waters rap
idly receded above. Only two houses
were entered, one Of these being Mr..
John A. Topping's stable, from which
the horses were rescued.
No damage resulted kslow the bridge
when the gorge broke.

4 Partial Brcak.lIn,

There was partial breakup of the
Ice In the Ohio river ut this port yester-
day afternoon. at o'clock. 1t was
caused by the rising river. which had
reached 10 feet inches last evening.
and still rising The running out Of
the creek. too. contributed to the break
up. The ice moved gently. and soon
stopped at point opposite the Belmont
mill. foot Of Twenty-fourth street.
South Side. There is now clear water
from the lower part Of the wharf to the
Belmont. At the upper end of the
city. too. there was 4 partial breakup
of the ice during the afternoon. From
the head of the Island to the water
works old pumping station there is now
clear water. 1t was thought likely the
ice at the public landing. being detached
above and below, would move out dur
ing the night.
River men are confident there will be
n general breakup OF the ice along the
upper Ohio to-day. With rising
river and the ice rotted considerably
by the warm weather, it is not thought
there will be much damage to floating
property.

Marietta Stirred Tn,

Just now two Ohio cities are consid-
erably stirred up. Springfield is very
angry over Wheeling scooping her base
ball franchise and club, and Marietta
is exceedingly wroth ever the senate
cutting out the provision in the rivers
and harbors bill for locks and dam at
Marietta. II nothing else can be done,
the Marietta people propose to have the
appropriation for the Wheeling dam
cut In two. half to be used for each.
This, however. will meet with active
opposition from Captain Dovener and
the other West Virginia representatives
and senators. and will not likely re-
ceive favorable consideration.
Says 4 special dispatch from Mar
ietta:
The entire section Of the Ohio VAL
ley. including the West Virginia side.
from Marietta was thoroughly aroused
over the action of the senate commit
tee in taking from the rivers and har-
bors bill the appropriation for the dam
at Marietta. Never did this commun-
ity encounter such disappointment,
nor with greater surprise than Sat-
urday, when the news came. There
are nearly forty passenger and tow
boats harbored at Marietta now. and
their officers and crews are thoroughly
aroused over the matter, Tor they know
better than all others that the worst
point in the Ohio river. and the one
needing attention more than any other.
Is at Marietta and the mouth of the
Muskingum. The board of trade was
hastily called together. and steps ia
ken to try for n reconsideration before
the conference committee. \ telegram
was sent to the Ohio senators, which
read:
1.-THE action OF the senate committee
on the Marietta dam has aroused this
section OF Ohio and the Ohio Valley,
and comes with painful surprise On
behalf of the board of trade and steam
bontmcn assembled here with their.
boats. and every citizen. bescech you
to do all in your power 10 have the ap-
preparation included in the conference
committee"
J. II. GRAFTON, President.
1t Is possible unless favorable nfor-
nation comes that Marietta will send
a large committee OF her most promi
nent citizens to Washington to see If
the appropriation cannot be secured. If
nothing better can be accomplished. 1t
Is proposed to have the Wheeling ap-
preparation divided. for not more than
half of the Wheeling appropriation can
be expended In the next year. and all
the work can proceed simultaneously.
