OHIO NEAR THE FLOOD STAGE
River Is Stin Rising, Though with
DiminishinS Rapidity-Crest
of Rise Near.

CINCINNATI, Feb. 2s.-The Ohio river
was six feet from flood stage here this
morning, and was rising, though with dl-
minished rapidity. At 10 o'clock the stage
was 43.9 feet, four-tenths higher than at
daylight.
Unless the rains set In again before the
high waters above Point Pleasant reach
here, it is not thought any serious damage
will result. The tributaries in this section
are all swollen, but they show a general
lessenging in their rate Of increase and
the crest OF the local rises is expected
within thlrty-six hours. BY that time the
upper Ohio waters will have begun to
reach here, but not in sufficient volume
to carry the river past the flood stage OF
fifty feet.
