HOUSES WRECKED By AUSTIN FLOOD.
/ Couemaugh river. eighteen miles above
/ the city. The break released the wa
tiers Of Conemaugh lake. wh-,h was
two and a half miles long. one and a
half miles wide and in places 100
| feet deep. This great volume Of water
swept down the narrow valley at ter
rife speed. covering the eighteen miles
between the dam and JohuStOwn in
seven minutes.
Though the people OF Johnstown had
lr en- warned beforehand that the dam
might break. they had paid little heed.
and when they heard the roar Of the
oncoming water and realized what il
was they had not time 10 escape.
A railroad bridge just south Of the
town formed a barrier against the for
ward rush of the food and caused the
waters 10 spread farther up the sides
of the valley. trapping even those who
had attempted to flee.
Fire Added to the Horror.
Johnstown and the surrounding VII
lagos were engulfed. and their inhab-
itantS were drowned by hundreds. To
add to the horror, debris which had
been caught by the railroad bridge took
fire, and the flames took the lives Of
many who had been spared by the
water
Aid was sent TO the survivors from
all the states of the Union and from
many foreign countries. The cOntribu-
tons totaled nearly 100000.
JohnStown was at once rebuilt and
has grown rapidly. In its cemetery
there are 500 graves Of unidentified vic
tins OF the food.
4 railway train which was crossing
the bridge at the time was hurled from
the rails and buried in the Swirling
sands. 1t was not until the fall Of 1897
that workmen while excavating for
building came upon the engine Of the
lost train four feet beneath the streets
of Johnstown.
