but even old river did not dream of such a
food. All morning houses which had been swept
from their foundations came down the Delaware,
Many of them remained intact until they struck

yesterdays deluse to find property destroyed to the
value OF thousands OF dollars scores OF buildings

sections and schedules abandoned In others. Both
tho Delaware and the Schuylkin rivers are swollen
far above the normal the latter stream being the
cause of vast loss IN money and property TO mill

textile workers idle in Manayunk alone by rea-
son Of the flood. Along the lower Schuylkill there
are many places where the water swept over the
retaining wall and inundated the park drives. or.
further SOUTH buried the railroad tracks so deeply
that service had to be abandoned until well on in
the morning. Shipping at the port Is at a stand
still.
The high tide OF this afternoon forced the waters
OF the Delaware up onto Delawsre-ave. to the
depth Of four feet paralyzng the ferry traffic TO
Camden.
Although the rain ceased falling before daylight.
the floods continued to pour over Flat Rock and
Paramount dams in torrents. while the muddy.
