If the Sunbury gorge does not give way before the water above comes down the river here by tomorrow night the Susquehanna will have reached as high a stage as last Febru- ary. If the gorge gives way before the water comes down the water in this region will go up still higher and we will have a most disastrous flood
 MT. De Main was advised tonight from Catawissa that the river at that point was rising, and at 3 o'clock was twenty-three feet above low-water point. The railroad tracks are flooded and the ice in the Catawissa and Nes- copeck creeks went out this afternoon. Several county bridges were swept away, and the situation is critical. Al though the conditions in the flooded district of this city and below have inn proved, none of the industries has been able to resume operations and will not attempt to until the water recedes. The Pennsylvania railroad continues to send it's passenger trains east over the Northern Central railroad, and it's freight trains over the Philadelphia and Reading road, because of the water on the tracks between Harrisburg and Middletown.
 The families of George and John Ber- ger and Miss Kurtz, a schol teacher, fourteen persons in all, who have been imprisoned by high water in their homes on Shellys Island, in the Sus- quehanna, opposite Goldsboro, were res- cued to-day. Governor Pennypacker to-day called in James M. Shumaker. superintendent of public grounds and buildings, who volunteered to go to Goldsboro with several other officers and attempt the rescue of those on the island.
 Arriving at Glodsboro, the party started across the ice in a dense fog and reached a point about one hundred feet from the island where they were compelled to stop on account of the rapid flow of waer. They called to the persons on the islands to secure boats and row over to the point where the rescuers were stationed, which they did, after which the Bregers and the teacher were brought ashore by Mir. Shumaker and party. Thousands along the bank watched the proceedings and cheered the climax enthusiastically.

 Wilkesbarre, ,Pa., March 7.-The heavy rain of to-day caused the ice in the Sus- ouehanna river here to break at several points, but the movement was soon stopped and the ice on the river here is still intact. The small streams pour ing into the river are tonight rising at an alarming rate and the mountain creeks are raging throughout the valley
 making the conditions for a flood loke quite serious.
 Traffic on the railroads running on the east and west sides of the river between here and Sudbury was not impeded to- day, but the officials fear that the traffic will be shut off south of Nesco-
 peck before morning. The Pennsylvania and the Lackawanna railroads have made preparations between Sudbury and Nanticoke to move everything on wheels out of danger on a moments notice. Men are patrolling the tracks who are inconstant communication with .he local offices. Tonight the river is rising rapidly. The measurement taken at 10 o'clock showed the stream to be 1a.4 feet above low water mark, rise of feet and inches since last night There is considerable alarm among the residents living in the extreme lower end os this city and on the west side lowlands where the water is back | ing up, causing many to leave their homes for the night.
