The-water has risen a foot and a half here in a little over an hour, and now twenty-one feet above low-water mark, but the gorge shows no 6igos of giving" way, and may hold out through the night. The water is backing up at West PittstonL and is 'Just beginning to flood that place. The Lehigh Valley Railroad is. flooded here and Plttston. and all trains have been abandoned between the places, and there are no from the North.

The last train down reached here, at 7 o'clock this evening, two hours behind. -time.

A rough from Ceniralia and Patches turned on Chief Burgess and fired several shots at him. No arrests were made, the police fearing it would cause a greater riot. Great excitement, prevails. The eitizens fear there will be trouble to-night. There ia a re-: port to the effect that the blackleg, as they are termed at the Mansion House, employed- by 'the Pennsylvania Reading Railroad Company, will be attacked to-day.

Between Locust' Gap and Alaska colliery the train-hands were stoned, fired ucoa and driven from their train. Superintendent Olhauser went to the spot and brought the train through safely. societies were their way from Heckscherville to Ashland, and tiring a salute at Gordon, one of the men had an arm shot off and another was badly wounded internally by the premature discharge of cannon.

They called to obtain his opinion as to what they had better do under the circumstances. The Governor informed them that he had isened a proclamation to the local officials to use their full authority to prevent bloodshed or the destruction of property, and that, with the law, was amply sufficient to meet alL cases.

They were not known. The Teamsters bariod them in their saddle blankets and hastened on.
