Nowhere in the city are the effects
of Mondays rain and the mild
weather of yesterday more apparent
than on the river below the Kennebcc
dam. The ice near the apron of the
dam began to break up. Monday after
noon and. yesterday. the open water
reached nearly to the railroad bridge.
while below that structure the ice was
broken up. and will probably disap-
pear within short time. The swift
current Is also wearing the ice away
below the kennebec bridge. and, last
night. there was seam opened nearly
to Whites coal wharf. A gentleman
who was in Waterville, yesterday, said
that between that city and Augusta
there were open places and that the
ice showed signs of weakening.
