minutes. The match was at catch-as
catch-can, best two in three falls, all
holds to go. The Europeans immense
bulk and science were altogether too
much for the Cincinnatian to combat
successfully.
In the first bout, Nouroula back
heeled Wittmer and fell upon him with
his full weight. He secured a catch
hold which he switched to a half hitch
and after a short struggle, pinned both
of Wittmer's shoulders to the mat.
Time, two minutes.
Coming on for the second fall, Witt
secured a strangle hold, which
the Bulgarian easily broke, and then
threw Wittmer to the mat. The GIN
cinnatian struggled out of his half doz-

passed him in a half Nelson and half

The railroads have recovered re-
markably well from the effects of the

various lines have resumed operations

pretension at running on schedule
time will be made.
A look over the ground after the

Add to this the great loss to the rail-

Railroads also Suffer Heavily.

PittsDurg, April 22.-The food is
over. Notwithstanding the fact that
early in the day there was every evil
dence Of a renewal of the high water,
the announcement can be made
auth%oritatively tonight that there is
not the least danger of another. 1t
would require a steady downpour of
rain for "a hours to check the fall and
from present indications such a thing
is not likely. The rivers about this
city are down so that the works along
the banks are running. There is a
good deal of clearing up to be done.
The flood brought in much Shiny mud
that it left when it receded and it will
require a day or two to remove it
from many of the mills. In a number
of places the mud has clogged up the
machinery, some of which will have to
be taken apart and cleaned.
