Freight Packets at Paducah, kyy
 WrenChed From MOorings
SOME SEEN STANDING ON END
Cries for Help Reach Ears of Me- tropolis, H., as Craft Drift Past Opening of MononSahcla River Wei cOmed in Pittsburgh

Paducah, ky, Jan. .29.-Descend1n2 ice gorges in the Tennessee and Ohio rivers, congesting here today, swept the winter fleet of packets and other craft from their mOorings at up-riVer points and in the Paducah harbor and carried it down the Ohio. Appeals for help from persons marooned on the ice- bound crafe plainly were heard as they were carried past this city.
 A report from Metropolis, H., said several packets were seen standing on end in the ice as the foe passed by.
 The number of boats caught in the torrent has not been determined. II was said they proba bly, would reach more than a dozen. An early esti' mate of the damage, if all were lost placed it at more than $200,0O0. =
 Ea gle line steam boats, St. Louis packets, several Tennessee river and other smaller craft were in tn har- Dor here when the gorge broke. The boats rocked and swayed with the impact of the ice. Additional cables hastily were run to short, but failed to hold them as the pressure of the ice became greater and one by one they were torn from their moorings and swept down the riccr.
 Some of the helpless fleet are ex- pectad to reach Cairo, Ill., late to- night

Pittsburgh, Jan 29. Reports reached the weather bureau here to- day that the Monongahela river was rising rapidly from T'airmOnt w Va, north, and the heavy ice was moving out It was expected the ice would reach the pools near Pittsburgh to- night and every precautiOn against damage to river craft was being taken The ice averages about IS inches.
 While there was possibility of con- siderable damage, the news was heard hopefully in Pittsburgh, since the Mono ga,hela has been closed by the severe weather for more than a month and large quantities Of coal, badly needed by the mills in this district, have been tied up. It was estimated this morning that fully 100000 men will be able to resume their cus- tomary employment as soon as the river is open.

over the feat is expressing it mildly.
In relating his experience at the
time when the deer appeared on the
scene, Roy expresses it emphatically
that it was about the most exciting
time of his life, but feels fully re-
warded for his trip. We don't blame
him as deer hunting is some sport.
