Councilman Stephenson objected to
the granuug of this petition on the
ground that the council had previon-ly
decided that itstiuulJ remove all such

tion on t.ie ground that the- bond was

UP K17ER GORGES.
A Belief That the Most Damaging -
aging Flood is Yet
to Come.
Major Furay'B Experiences in
the Flooded Regions.
Major John B. Furay , special agent
of the Post Office Department , re
turned Tuesday from St. Helena ,
Dakota , where he had been on special
business with which the flood swept
conditl n of the country materially
interfered. The Mjor's return trip
was made by way St. James , New
castle and Ponca , Neb. , and he came
Tuesday from Ponca to the railroad ,
a distance of forty miles , meeting on
his way a committee from Sioux City ,
provided wifh Wasting material to
break , if possible , the gorge
above S oux City. The Major's
description of the present condition
of the ri-er indicates tbat aa yet we
have h d but a small specimen of what
we must expect within a few days in
the way of flood. The heaviest gorge
in the river had not , the Maj > r states ,
broken Tuesday , and the water re
suiting therefrom cannot yet have
reached Omaha.
At Sioux City he states that the
people are greatly excited and fear a
most disastrous flood , which will sweep
all the lower portion of the city. In
some business houses goods have been
rejerved for the basements. Mtny
families Hvirgneartha river have re
moved from their dwellings , and the
railroad companies have all their cars
ready to move at a moment's notice ,
Watchmen are on duty at the river
banks , whose duty it is to see that fire
bells are rung , and cannon fired if
the river becomes dangerous. The
most important railroad bridges over
the Sioux river are destroyed.
The committee whom Major Fnray
met from Sioux City comprised
trustees Humbert and Tompkins ,
Deputy Marshal Ogden and Chas.
Poor. They had with them powder ,
Ice tools , augers , etc. An examina
tion of the gorge proved.that.the ice
had formed a solid and compact mass
of such extent that any effjrt to break
it would be useless.
After the explorers had left the
following telegrams passed between
Mayor Smith and General Crook :
SioDiCmr , April 4 , 1881. Gen
eral Crook , Fort Omaha , Neb. :
gorge in river above us causing great
Buttering. Nebraska counties , as
well as Dakota , in parll. Can you
send us dynamite and an engineer , or
dynamite alone ? Would like some by
this evening's trin. Answer.
WM. R Ssirni ,
Mayor Sioux City.
OMAHA , Neb. , April 4 , 1881.
Mayor Smith : Have no appliances ,
dynamite or other suitable explosive ,
and can get nothing ( f the kind in
Omaha. Maj. R. C. Suter , 1351
Washington avenue , St. Louis , could
probably furnish or secure the read
iest assistance.
GEOEGE CROOK , Brig.-Gen.
The first gorge of importance in
going up the river from Sioux City
exists , Major Furay states , at a point
ten or twelve miles above Sioux City
and expends for ten or twelve miles.
Above that is the great fifty
mile gorge. It is feared that the up
per gorge will go out first , carrying
away the lower in its course , and these
in turn taking out the gorges which
have probably formed between Sioux
and vast extent of fhe water at these
gorges give-reason to fear that the
disaster wonld ba an extensive one.
The major gives a graphic descrip
tion of the rise which swept away the
towns of Green Island and Vermillion
in this state. Most of the people were
washed away with their dwellings.
The majority were saved by heroic
efforts with skiffs on the part of neigh
bors , but severs ! were probably drown
ed. In one case a man offered one
thousand dollars to any one who would
save his aged father and dialer , who
were washed away with their
dwelling , and men were readily
found who risked their lives
and succeeding in saving the father
and eislor. In one instance a church
came down in the fljod , still standing
erect and the bell t < lling. Buildings
were washed SiTay standing at points
fifteen feet above the highest water
ever before known.
Of Major Furay's personal part in
the attempts to relieve the unfortunate
he does not speak , but in an ex
change , The Cedar County Nonpareil ,
the following appears :
"Coi. J. B. Furay , of Omaha , Gov
ernment Post Offica Inspector , who is
now in St. Helena on official business ,
deserves great credit in his untiring 1
efforts to relieve the unfortunates I
and see that they were properly cared
for. Col. Furay is comparatively a
strangpr in a strange land , but when
ever and wherever he can do a
good act , it is done with great pleas
