Pittsburg, May 10. Reports of
damage by last night's storm are
coming in to-day from all parts of
Alleghany, in fact from nearly every
place in Eastern Ohio and Western
Pennsylvania. The loss, however,
cannot be approximated at this
time. Farms were washed out.
bouses, fences and trees along the
banks of the streams swept away,
and landslides occurred on nearly
every road leading out of Pittsburg.
So far but
TWO DEATHS FROM DROWNING
have been reported. Two children
of Conrad Scbaefer, aged 3 and 7
years, respectively, of Spring Garden
.Borough, JNortn ot Alleghany, were
swept1 away by the flood, and Mr.
and Mrs. Shsefer, narrowly escaped
meeting the same fate. Their house
is located near the Bank of Butch
er's Run, the scene of the frightful
disaster of 15 years ago, when 200
persons were swept to death by the
angry waters.
When the banks overflowed last
night, the Scbaefer house was mbv
ed ujava Us foundation, ! and the
family Jeft the house-and sought
sneiter under some trees.
In running out of the house the
children, bpth girls, were caught by
ihe current and carried away. Mrs.
Shaefer becan?p go frantic on seeing
her children in the Run that she
got in the watjer gp and was almost
arrrwneo.
The bodies of the children were
recovered. A physician was called
to see Mrs.; Scbaefer. but it is not
thought she will recover.. Two other
