So far as the oldest inhabitants
know there never before has beer
such a Jam of ice in the Niagara
gorge as at present. From the falls
to Lake Ontario the surface OF the
river is a whitened pathway, run-
ming snake-like between the high
cliffs.
The Whirlpool has its whirling
and swift currents buried under
tons and tons of ice that spread
from shore to shore, from entrance
to outlet, but underneath the quiet
mass there is tumult of water that
is hurrying more ice down stream,
pressing hard on the jam at Lewis
ton, where the icy mass was nearly
so feet higher than ever before
notwithstanding two hotels
that stand high on the river bank.
Docks, lighthouses, private pump
ing plants and stairways have given
way to the pressure Of the ice, and
the end is not yet.
Farther up stream, close to the
Falls, is another jam of ice that
stretches from the Falls to the
Whirlpool Rapids. Usually the tor
rent of the tunnel of the Niagara
Falls Power Company eats its way
through gathered ice clear across
the river, but conditions are
changed now, and only a small
open place indicates where the flood
of water from the portal strikes
the: lower river.
The abutments of the great up
per steel arch bridge are buried in
ice, which has reached such a
height that it is mixing between
the girders of the structure. Under
meath the stream is the old suspen-
sion bridge, destroyed by wind on
the night of January 9, 1889, and,
should the steel arch be torn away,
it would make the second giant
structure to succumb on that site.
1t is believed that the old bridge
has much to do with retarding the
passage of ice and water from the
falls down stream, for last Satur.
day morning the water in front of
the Horseshoe Falls rose 40 feet
above normal level and foated the
Ontario Power Company's station,
1t the waters ledge on the Cana
diarf side. The water and ice en-
tered through the doors and win
lows, and the giant power-produc-
.rs there installed on horizontal
shafts hal to be stopped. They are
still shut down, and it is difficult to
ell the extent of the damage, but
It is apt to be enormous. 1t always
lad been supposed that the station
vas above the danger line, but the
present experience is startling and
uggestive of future danger.
Two miles down stream one of
,hree steel power transmission
overs that carry aluminium cables
.cross the Niagara river is wrecked,
iaving been torn from its founda-
ions and cast topping over on its
stream neighbor.
