A heavy | Tain storm set in about 3% o'clock p. continued several hours, the water falling in | torrents and flooding the stree*s and avenues, j making many of them impassable. Daring the evening there was considerable thunder and | lightning, and the temperature fell several de~ | grees. There was some damage done to un‘in hed sewer work, but not to a serious extent. ‘THE PRESHET IN THE TIBER. The Tiber was unusually high, bat the new arch over that stream carried off all the wa’ at the topor arch. A the creek at Indiana avenue was slightly dam- aged. At the outlet near Maryland avenue br the water spread and overfowed a large mof the low grounds in that vicinity, the eer foers of the es being tlooded so as to render housekeeping work on the first toors in- practicable for some time.

Along in the oid First Ward, about the circle, where the track- layers have been at work, the tracks were cov- ered with water, conveying saud and grave}, making progress almost impossible. In Bridge street, Georgetown, where Riker’s men have torn up the big cobblestones, they leftthem sc tered along the track allover the street, causing pedestrians to stumbie and riders and drivers to get well jolted up.
