STORY OF THE DELUGE.

HEARTRENDING- SCENES EH CONE- . jpfAUUK VAiajSY. Willinm Henry Smith's Graphlo Desciip. tloa of-tbo Stood' Awrnl Approach Had Flange of the Aqueous Avalanche on Uie City of Concmntigli How Trains, Wonses. Every tl ting, Went Down Before the Store Niagara Awful Scent or Destruction. Mr. William Henry Smith, General Manager l the Associated Press, was an eye-witness ot Iho awful scenes in Conematuth Valley on tho night of tbe great calamity. Ho tells iho following story of the flood's devastation : Tho fast-line traios that Icavo Chicago at 3 :15 and Cincinnati at. 7 n;. constitute the day express eastward from Fittsl oreh , which runs in two sootious. This tmin loft l'irtRburgli on t'.mo Friday morning, out was stopped for ati hour at Johnst-T by reports of a washout i to.. It hod .em raising hard for over sixt m liours, and th, .-Ides of the mountains vera x i-ered with water descending Into the vrJleys. Tho Conemsugh River, whose tank is followed by the Pennsylvania Ballroad for many miles, looked an angry flood nearly bankful, fassengeni wore in Wrested in seeing bnndreds fit saw-logs and an enonnouo avtouiit 01 ariicwooox snoos bv. and the train Trtirsned its war oa&twam. At Johnstown there was a long wait, as before stated. Tho lower stories of many houses wero submerged by tho slack water, and U10 inhabitants wore lockinK out ot the second stories. Horses were standing up to their inooB In water in the streets ; a side-track of the railroad hod been washed out ; loaded cars were on the bridge to ' keep it steady, and the huge poles of tho Western Union Telegraph Company, carrying ntteen wires, swayed badly, And several soon went down. The two socHooa ran to Oonomaugh, about two miles this side of Johnstown, and lay there about three hours, when tiioy were moved on to the highest ground and itlaoed side by vide. Iho mail bain was placed ia tho rear of the first section, and a freight train was run on to a side track on tho b'.nk of the Oonomaugh. Tho report was that a brid ;o bad beon watthed out, Carrying away one rack, and that tho other track was unsafe. Tl ere was a rumor also that the reservoir at Sent 1 Pork, some time ago a feeder of the Pennsylvania Canal, but latterly the property of a club at Pittsburg, and used for hunting and fishing, was nnsofo and might break.- This mado most of tho passengers uneasy, and - thoy. kept a pretty good lookout for infoi-matlou. The porters of-he Pullman cars remained at their postsSattd comforted iho passengers with tbe assurancV that the Pennsylvania Railroad Company always took core of its patrons. A few gentlemennd some ladios and children quietly seated themselves, apparently contented. Ono and rrJaa(aTfniRo1i3nBl not to do so. a orv oamo that UiowBWttun the reser voir had Broken down tne oarrter ana wee sweeping down the valley. Instantly there was a panic, and a rush for tho mountain side. Children were carried and- women assisted by a few who kept oool heads. It was a race for life. There was seen tho black head of tho Hood, now the monster of don traction, whose crest was high raised to the air, and with this in view even the weak found wings for their foot. No words con adequately describe the terror that filled every breast, or the awful power natures ted by the flood. Tho round-house had stalls for twenty-three locomotives. Thero wore eighteen or twenty of those, standing there at this time. There was an omiuous crash, and' the round-house and locomotives disappeared. Everything in tho main track of tbe flood was first lifted in the air aud then swallowed up by the waters. A hundred, bouses were swopt t.way in a few minutes; these Included the hotel, stores, and saloon on the front street, and residences adjacent. As the fugitive on tbe mountain side witnessed the awful devastation, they wore moved as never before in their lives: They wtre powerless to help those seised upon by the v nitsra ; tho despair of those who had lost every thing except life, and the wailing of those whose relatives or friends were missing filled their breasts with unutterable sorrow. The rain continued to loll steadily, but shelter was not thought of. Very few passengers saved anything from tie train, so sudden was tho cry, "Run far your lives :ths reservoir bos broken. Many wero without hats, and, aa their baggago was loft on thotrointt, they were without the means of rellevirg their unhappy condition. Tho ooenpants of tbe houses still standing on the high ground tore sthem opes to those who bad lost all aud to the passengers of tho train. During the holgiit of the flood the spectators were startled by tie sound of two locomotive whistles from tbe veiy midst of the waters. The engineers, wlthcharaoteristio courage, had remained at their posts, and while there was destruction on every hanl, and apparently no escape for them, they sounded their whistles. This they repeated at Inter, vale tho last time with triumphant vigor its tho waters were receding from the sides of the ir locomotives. By 5 :S0 the force of the resorvolr waters bad been spent on the village of Conomaugh. and tbe Pullman cars and locomotive of tho second section remained unmoved. 3tis was because thy wero oa the highest and harie8Tbode8tiuotlve current of tho reservoir flood had passed between that and the mountain, while tho current of the river did not eat It bway. But the other trains had been destroynd. A solitary locomotive was seen imbedded in Ijie mud wbaro tho round-houso had stood. As tho greatest danger bad passed, tho people of Coneinaugh gave their thoughts to their neighbors of the city of Johnstown. Here vras centered tho groat steel and iron indastrlos, tho prido of Western Pennsylvania, tbe Cambria Iron Works beint; known ovorywhore. Horo were churches, div&y newspapers, banks, dry goods houses, warehouses, and the comf'urtalile and well-built homes Of 12,000 poo :ple. What was their fate? In tho contemplation ot the irresistible force of that awful flood fathering additional momentum as it ewopl on toward tho Gulf, It lircamo clear that the city must be destroyed, and that, unless the inhabitants had telegraphic notice of tho breaking of the reservoir thoy imtst perish. A ory of horror wenti up from the hundreds on tho mountain-side, aud a few instinctively tuvnod their steps toviard Johnstown. The city woe destroyed. All the mills, fuinaces, manufactories; the many and varied industries, the bonks, the roBldoiicos -all. AH were swallowed up beforo tbo shadow J of Sight had settled down upon tbe earth. What ot tbo inhabitants ? Who can toll with any certainty ? Thoso who cams hack by daybreak said that from 5,000 to 8,000 had been drowned. Our hope is that this is an exaggeration, and when tho roll is called most will respond. In the light of this calamity the dest motion at Conemugh sinks into InsigaiUcanee. In this latter place they were already bringing in tbo dead on stretchers. How many had been lost here, at Mineral Point, and at South Fork could not bo told and may never be known. Thero wore some pattsengers and perhaps forty or fifty inhab. Itaattt. Tho loss of property Is enormous. The track of tho railroad company is certainly destrayed for at least lea miles below South Fork, and all other property of the company on the lino. The destruction of Johnstown's industries will alone reach mauy millions. Then to this freatsum add the value ol tho houses and public uildines in that city and of tho villages above and below it, and some idea can be formed of tho wealth obliterated by the flood created by the breaking of the reservoir. And this reservoir was maintained for the Sloasuro of a Pittsburgh club. Upon the niountin w as suspended a body of water three miles long, one mllo wide, and seventy feet deep tor tbo recreation af a row plcasuro-Beokers. What would happen If there should be a break must have boon imperfectly apprehended, since it is said that a bond of only three millions hail been exacted from the club. What are three millions tothegro8S8umforthodostrttclk.it of proper, ty ? Can they restore the dead to life, or assuage tlie grief of the bereaved f Tbe question of moral responsibility swallow up the flnanolal as completely as the angry waters did tho city of Johnstown.

Tho flrnt Oispatcles from this seeno wore many times short of the trcHiendoue truth. Tho catastrophe Is so groat that none dare veuttiro an cstiutate ujion its extent. T.?oodvale and roneuiint0h are utterly destroyod, and their Joint iopiila'!4n of n.OOO is dead. Johnttown is witckid, uud cortaialy 5,009 people lie dead in the streets and antong the driftwood in thft subsiding stream.- The basiiioss jwition of the prosperous little eityis oblitoratd, and for a mllo along Main street the wreckage is piled fifty foot high. fit miles below the debris of shattered houses chokes the stream One hundred and ninety bodies wore nicked Ont of the river at Nineveh, and the majority wero burled tborc to-day.

A sad and gloomy sky, almost sa sad and Slooray as the human faces under it. shrouded ohnatowu to-day, continues Mr. Giles. Rain fell all day and added le tho miseries of tho wretched people. The ftrent plain where tbe best part o? Ji hilstov n u.! t t-iund ie half covered with water. The few sidewalks in tho port that escaped the flood wero incites thick with black sticky" ' mud, tbrt.gh which tramped a steady procesrion of tbo poor women who re left nttorly destitute. Tito tents, where the people are 11,, nsu.i who cannot find other fiheltor, wero celd and ehno-loss. Too town seom.td like a great tomb. The people of Johnstown liave supped so full of horrors that they go about in a sort of a datte and only half conscious of their' griefs. Kvery hour as one goes through tbe streets lie hears neighbors greeting curb, other and then ijimvirmg, without show of feeling, how many each liad lost in bis family. T-day a gray-haired man boiled an. other ocnms tbo street with thi question. "I lost live ; all ate gone but Mary and I," was the reply, "I am worse off than that," said the first old gentleman; "I have only my grandson left. Soven of ub gone." And so thoy passed on without apparent excitement. They and every one else nod heard so much of these melancholy conversations that somehow the calamity bad lost Us significance to them. Thoy treat it exactly as if tbe dead persons bad gone away and were coming baehutawcek. Tbo melancholy task of searching tho ruins for more bodies went on today in tho soaking rain. Thoro were litllo crowds of morbid curiosity hunters around each knot of workingmen, but they were not residents of Johnstown. All their curiosity in that direction was sated long ago. riven those who came in from neighboring towns with tho idea of a day's strange ana ghastly experiences did not care to bo near after thoy had seen ono body exhumed. Thoro wore hundreds and thousands of these visitors from the country. One tiling that makes tbe work of searching for the bodies very slow is tho straugo way that great masses of objects were rolled Into intricate masses of rubbish. As tho flood came down tbo vallev of tho South Fork It obliterated tho suburb of Woodvale, whero not a houso was loft nor a trace of ono. The material thoy hail contained rolled on down tho valley, over and over, grinding it up to pulp and finally leavlm; It against on unusually firm foundation or sit eddy. These masses centftin human bodies, hut it is slow work to plot thoiu to piece. In the side of ono of them was seen the rem. nants ot a carriage, tbo body of a barn. s. .1 hor60. a baby cradle and a dell, a tress of w.-.m an 'ft hair, a rocking-horse, and pisco of be.-i-steak still hanging to a book. 8MAU. TOWNS SWEPT AWAY. Little Left c ?Kornvillo Woodvale a Seu of Mud. Out ot tho 1,000 houses that once mado uiul:littlo town of KcmviUo only 155 remain standing, says a Johnstown spis-iill. Ono thousand people is a low estimate of the number of lives lost from this town. But a few of tbo bodies have been recovered, it is directly above tho ruins at tho bridge, aud tho lodies hate floated down Into them, where they burned. A walk through tho town revealed a desolate sighk Only about twenty-five able-bodied men havo survived and ere olilo to render any assistance. Men and women con ba seen with block eyes, bruised faces, and- out, hiwls. Tho apix'aranco of some of the ladles If neart rending. They were injar.d iu tbe flood and since that have not slept. Their faces have turned a ttckly vellow, aud dark rings surround tho eyes, 'liai.y have succumbed to nertoo prostration. For two days but little assistance could bo rouduied thoiu. No medical attention reached them. Tho wounded remained uucar?d for in some houses rut off by tho water and died from thoir Injuries alone. 8"me wero nllvo on Bunday, and their about could be beard by the people on tbe shore. A man is now in a temporary jail in what Is loft of the town.. Ho was eauRht stealitid a gold watch. A shot was fired at him, but to was not wounded. The wily thing that saved bun from lynching was tbe Buiallness of tho erowd. His sentence will bo tho heaviest that eon bo given hint. A milkman who was ovorohartdng for milk this morning narrowly escaped lynching. Tho Infuriated men uppropriatedall his milk and distributed it among the poor and then drovohiiu out of the town. Services In the chapel from which tho bodies wero buried consisted merely of a prayor by ono of tbo survivors. No minister was present. Each oofiiu had a descriptive card upon it and on tho grave a similar card was placed so that bodies can bo removed later by friends. Where Woodvale once stood there Is now a sea of mud, broken but rarely by a pile of wreckage. Nothing is standing but the old woolett-mtlls. The place Is swept bare of all othor buildings but tho ruins of tho OatiUer wire-mill. The boilers of this great works wero carried 100 yards from their foundation. Pieces of engines, rolls, and othor machinery wero swept far away from whero they onco stood. The wreck of a nose carriage Is sticking up out of thentud. Itltelongod to tho dock eimrpauy of Johnstown. Th engine houso Is swept away and tho cellar is tilled with mud, so that tbo site in obliterated. A German watchman was on guard at the mill when the waters came. Ho ran for tho hillside and euoeiKided in escaping. Bo tollt a graphto story of tho appearance of tho w.tor as it swept down the valley. Ho declares that the first wave was as high as tho third story ot a houso. Tho place is deserted. No effort Is being made to clean off tho e tracts. Tbe miro bas formed tlie grave for many a poor viotim. Arms and legs are protruding from tbo mud, and It makes tlio most sickening of pictures.

Ita Owners Were A war of It Eotten Condition. Messrs. H. Singer, Ooorgii Singer, Louis Cork, and BiHttBsey Jlinns, tf Pittsburg, r.-Rtives of member of the South Pork Fishing Club, hnvs arrived Irum the broken dam, say a dispatch from Johnstown. Tho lake is completely dried out. Tho dm broke in tho center at 3 o'clock on Friday afternoon, and at 1 o'clock It. was dry. That great body of twater paused out in one hour. Messrs. Park and Van Huron, who are building a new draining svefm at tho lolte, tried to avert the disaster by .tigging a sluice-way on one ttiito to case the pressure on the iltwu. They had about forty men at work, and did all they could without avail. The water phased over thodamabont a foot above its top, t-egkuung at about SSO. Whatever happened in tho way of a cloudburst took place during tho night. There bad bten but little rain up to dark, when tho workmen awoke in tho morning tho lake was vory full end was rising at the rate of a foot an hour. It kept on lining un'll 2 o'clock, when It first began breaking over tho dam, undermining it; men wero sent three or four times during tbe day to warn the people below of thoir danger. When iho ileal 1 rrak came at 1) o'clock there was a sound Uko thunder, and trees, rocks, and earth were shot up into mid-air in great columns, and then the wave started down the ravine. A farmer who eficuptd said that tbe water did not eome down like a wavo, but jumped on his house and beat it to fragments in an instant. Ho was safe upon the htltsldo, but his wife and two ehildroo. tvote killed. At the present titno tbe lake looks like a cros3 between the crater of a volcano and huge mud.pttddlo with stumps ol trees aud rocks scattered over It. There is a small strcttm of mnddy water running through tho center f thelaka. the dam was sovontyfeet high, an-1 the break is about 20i 3: t wide, and there is but a small portion of .ho dam left rn either aide No damage was done to any of the buildingB liekinging to tbe dub. Tho whole south tork is swept, with not a troo standing. A man named Moguire save be was standing on tbo edge of tho bike when the walls burst. The water was risirat all day and was on a lev. 1 with a pile of dirt wiiich, he said, was above the wall of the dam. All of a sudden it burst with a report like a cannon and the water started down tho liiouutatn side, sweeping before it trees as if they were chips ; bowlders were rolled down as if thoy woro marbles. Tho rosr was deafening. Tho lake wos emptied in an hour and a half. All tbe water, he said, is now out. The railroad is in a torrlbio condition. At some points holes twenty to thirty feet dep were wasbed in the tracts. On his way do u he stopped at Mineral Point, where sixtoen houses were washed away and several bv.is lost. At East Conewaugli thirty bouses wore carried away by the flood. Tho loss of itfo is largo at this point. ' THB LOSS OF L1KS. The Terrible Sacrifice of Human Life Will Never Be Known, Tho dovelomnonts of every hour make it more and more artparetit that tbo exact number of lives lost in tho Johnstown horror will never bo kuown, says ono correspondent. AU estimates that have been made up to this time are conser. vative and whun all is known will doubtless bo found to have been too small. Over ono thousand bodies have been found since snurise to-dav, and tho most Kkoptfcol concede that tho remains of thousands more rest beneath the debri-t above Johnstown brtrigo. .The population of Johnstown, tho surrounding tovns, and tho ponton of the valley affected by tbe flood is, or was, from fitt) thousand to fifty-five thousand. Associated Press representatives to-day interviewed numerous lea-ling citizens of Johnstown who survived the floods and tbo consensus of opinion was that fully 3d per cent, of the residents of Johnstown and Cambria bad been victims of the combined disasUrs of fire and water. If this ho true the total loss of life in the entire valley may reach Ij.000. Of tho thousands who were devoured by tho flames, aud whose ashes rest -boueatb tho smoklug debris abovo Johnstown bridge, no definite information can ever bo obtained. As little will bo learned of tbo hundreds who sunk beneath tho current and woro borno swiftly down tha Concwaugu cnlv to bo deposited hundreds of miies below on the banks aud in tli driftwood of the raging Ohio. Probably one-third uf the dead will never bo recovered, atid it will take a list of the mising weeks honce to enable oven a close estimate to bo mode of the number of livos that wero snuffed out in that brief hour. That this estimate caii never be accurate is understood when it is remembered that iu many instances whole TIIE OAMBBIA families and tboir relatives wero swept away aud found a common gravo beneath tho wild waste of waters. The total destruction ot tho city loaves no data to even demonstrate that the mimes of thoso unfortunate ever tuuud pla-e 011 the pages of history. "All indications point to tho fact that tbe death-list till reach over five thousand namoti, aud In my opinion the misniug will reach 8,0;0 in number,' declared (ien. O. H. Hastings. At present thoro arc said to be 3,200 recovered bodies. The great- dithculty oxpi'rieuced iu getting a correct list is the great number uf morgues, Thero is no central bureau of information, and to communioato with tho lUflcrcnt dea lhoustB is tho work of hours. In answer to questions from Gov. Reaver, Adjt. ties. Hustings has telegraphed the iolloving: "Good order prevailed throughout, tho city and vicinity last night. Police arrangements are excellent. Not ono arrest made- No need ot sending troops. "About 2.000 bodies have been rescued, and tho work of embalming and burymg the dead is go lug on witn regularity. Thero is plenty of molloal assistance. Wo havo a bountiful supply of food and clothing to-day and the fullest telegraphic fivllltloa ore afforded, aud all inquiries iue pn-mtitly answered. Tho Peunsylvoni railroad will bo completed to Johnstown station to-night, Havo you any instructions or inquiries? "Tbo most conservative estimates horoploco tho loos of lives at f uUy 5,000. Tho prevailing Jmjiression is that the loss will rea-m from 8,0 0 to 10,0 t. Thero are many widows and orphans, and a great many wounded -Impossible to glvo an estimate. Tho property destroyed will reach 845,0011 uoo. The popular estimate will roach $40,000,001 to $.'10,000,000. Obief Burgess Hnrl aud L. C.

gaining puouo oouaueiioo (wore mae itn next trip East. Bastian's arm is tronbling him and By- ' an will, consequently, play short, with ' Farrell in center and Van in left, for some tine to come. Thia puts a good, batting team in tho field for Chicago? ; It is f aid that Jimmy By has beoome -anxious to make a record a ' an iufieldeti.. Anson has every conniienco in his abilU. . ty to play as good a gam t short ns b plays in center. It was in tha morning game. Decoration Bay, in Boston, that Dicky Johnston stepped to bat, with ltadbournon first a: one man out. Dicky had not been hitting the boll up to this time daring the series, and a fair spectator eittwig back of th prose bos expressed tit hope that "Mr, Johnston would hit it this time, anyway." . 'Hit it!" sniffed the voting woman's escort, in just such a tone as a man with "five on Boston" would naturally ussub, "be wouldn't hit his mother-in-lawl" The young woman's exclamation of horror at the remark and the Sound of Dicky's bat as it smote the ball were heard siroxl. taneously in the grand stand, aad the ballsailed off oter the left ftald feucofor home run. A great deal of rivalry exists among th members ot the Chicago team in th try for batting honors, aud tbe following statement of the stick-work done by th toam on the last Eastern trip will thow what the boys are doing: V: id, 1BT ?Brcen; sa .saa Duffy fvyan Van Baltren.
