Damaging Storms.

The heavy local storms which
have visited this section of Mary.
land, Pennsylvania and Delaware
during the past week have wrought
considerable damage and seriously
interfered with railroad traffic.
Washouts have occurred at a num-
Der of places, telephone and tele-
graph wires were blown down and
more Or less damage has been done
by lightning.
The dam at McLaughlin's Mills
along the Christiana Creek gave
way, and the low lands were com
pletely submerged, fences and out
buildings were carried away, and
live stock persisted in the rush of
water.
One of the heaviest losers was
Farmer John McKearns, who had
his entire drove of cattle swept
away.
The washoqt on the Philadel-
phia, Wilmington Il Baltimore
Railroad, one mile from Iron Hill,
prevented all mails from arriving
or departing from Elkton.
A landslide occurred at Fite's
Eddy and blocked all traffic on the
Columbia road for two days.
