Our report from the Wheeling
whartbcat at 2 o'clock this after
noon Is very encouraging. The
wharfboat men predict from 81 to
IS feet of water at Wheeling. II
takes about 80 feet at that city to
make food here. Last night 1t
was predicted there would be 20
feet of water at Plttsburg this
morning, bat at noon today there
was only Is feet of water but both
rivers are rising.
The snowfall was general yester-
day throughout the Ohio Valley and
averaged from 6 inches to feet in
the mountains. Last night 1t
rained nearly all night long and
one inch of water fell on top of the
big snow at Plttsburg.
The weather men say we will
have fair weather after today, and
while they will not say we will have
no food they refuse to say there
will be one. At best all we can say
now Is the reports are favorable for
our not having any fcod at this
time. The water is coming from
melting SHOWS and for that reason
1t is hard to predict what the river
will do, but our information leads
us to think at this time that while
the river will almost reach the
food mark and may food a few low
houses we do not think 1t will
reach the danger line here.
The Review has used every
known means to give Its readers
the latest information. and in sub
stance, 1t Is, we will not have a
food this time but we will have a
very big FLYER and 1t will nearly
reach the danger line, possibly 1t
will come up as high as we had 1t a
few weeks ago. We will know to-
morrow almost to a certainty just
about how much water we will
have. 1t Is going to be a close
call. Let's hope for the best.
