J Monday morning the food in the

greatest damage on it's. Little Schuyl-
XIII branch, and Sunday night orders
were issued calling out the wreck
trains. Trains of cars were gotten to-
gether early Monday morning, and the
cars were loaded with cinder and other
material and taken up the road. 1t
was learned that the trouble was so
serious and the water so high that it
was impossible to reach the washouts
on the Little Schuiykill branch. The
water there is subsiding, however, and
it is expected the work of repairing
the damage will be commenced Monday
afternoon. d.

laboring man in Ithaca was given
work, and efforts were made to secure
men from Owego and other nearby
towns. Brockton, five miles east,
suffered much by the flood, several
buildings being carried away.
