ANXIOUS WATCH KEPT
ON POTOMAC RIVER
Swollen Condition of Western Mary.
land Streams to Be Felt
Here,

An anxious watch is being kept on the
Potomac River for signs of a rise, as a
result of the swollen condition of the
streams in Western Maryland which
join the Potomac. and which are inun-
dating the country through which they
flow.
The Potomac at Washington is muddy,
and the current is unusually swift. The
water yesterday had partly inundated
the big floating barge off the Potomac
Boat Club, and was on a level with the
concrete runway leading down to the
abutments of the Aqueduct Bridge.
Although the rise in the Potomac
off Washington SO far has been in
considerable, rivermen are anxiously
watching the stream for signs of
rapid swell. The river has passed the
flood stage at Harpers' Ferry, and worry
is expressed by shippers here. Captains
of steamboats, yesterday commented on
the unusual roughness and remarkably
swift current of the river.
The rise last night was hardly no.
ticeable, according to the report Of the
Harbor precinct and the watchman at
the draw in the Highway Bridge.
This. however. it was explained. was
because of the wind yesterday. which
helped to keep the river down. With
the heavy rains of the last few days
and the great rainfall in the noun
tains, not to mention the swollen con-
dition of the streams flowing into the
Potomac. grave fears of big rise are
here.
Merchants and manufacturers. who
have their places of business in the
lower sections of the city, kept in close
touch with the conditions up river yes
terday. flood in Washington. while
it would not affect the residence sections
or the business section above Pennsyl-
vania Avenue, might cause great damage
to the lumber mills and other industries
below the Avenue, and might flood the
public buildings along the mall, where
records are stored.
Washington's greatest flood was In
1854 when the river left its banks and
flooded buildings far north as F.
Street.
