At noon yesterday when the signal service officer made his measurement the water waa 21 feat ; and 7 inches above low water mark , which ii just 5 Inches below the recent risa , and was btill rising. A BEE reporter vis ited tha lumber yards and found the situation very bad. Foster's boom , which li the farthest down the stream , broke yesterday and about ten thousand feet went out , a very little of which was , secured in the neighborhood of the U.P. bridge. A gang of men was stationed at the break , who Bayed , most of the lum ber which' came down ' afterward. Hoagland's property and that of the Chicago Lumber company It , If pos sible , in worse shape than in the re cent flood. In both yards lumber piles are and floating down against the booms and in several .instances where the piles have beeu.large.thay have fallen over the booms and considerable quan tities have floated down with the cur rent Two lime houses , belonging to Hoagland , which stood 100 feet north of Douglas itreel are now below that street , while one small building , crushed by the flood , stands in the middle. On every side lumber piles are toppling over and floating down with the current , and within the ten minutes during which the reporter was standing in front cf the Chicago lumber office not less than 30,000 feet floated away In this manner. While this lumber is held by booms at present , its constant increase , and the accelerated force of the current , is likely to break the booms. For some reason the stream through the yards appears tbread F to rnn with far greater force than during the late risa. Between 11 a. m. and 12 the river rose 2 inches. The lumber companies are doing nothing as yet toward removing the lumber from the yards.and.lt isquestionable if anything can be , done. THE SMELTING WORKS. The situation of the smelting works appears perilous In the extreme , .but Mr. "Naeh informed a BEE reporter thai the water had done Its worst Harm In reaching its presentrue and that a foot or two more of rise would not Increase the damage. The. com pany , can io nothing to protect , .its property AN ALARMXKOjraOSPECT. Telegrams from Sioux City were re ceived yesterday by several parties interested. 'One of these telegrams stated that the river waa twenty feet above-low water mark , had risen three feetalnce Wednesday noon and waa still rising The Smelting wort , h vo r- nuKementa by wbich they receive two telegrams daily from Cashier Stone , of the First National Bank of Siooi City. .

Blufis on time yesterday aud. paateugera and baggage were transferred. The mills , ao far aa can be learned , were not ; . Spoon Lake bridge la again flooded and .the Union Pacific has improyisad a bridge of flat , can , similar to that used during the 'late rise , for , the transfer of passengers , .ba-jgage.etc. At .noon the Wabaah and 0. , B. &Q. tracks were still open 'to the 17. P. tranfer and it is expected , to make' connections easl with all the pool lines , and the Wab&sh this afternoon. The U. P westJbousd tralnleft.considerably late. TheB"Ml track Is flooded between Omaha and Bellevne , and they are running no trains. The 0. M. St. P. & 0. E , R. , Is in the same condition. It is safe to conclude thai before this morning all travel east , north and soaih will be inter rupted. AT THESE O'CLOCK. At this hoar the water had rlien two inches since noon and waa still rising. The effect of this steady Increate - create in the great volume of watei waa plainly seen. Each inch of addi tional muddy liquid added a tramen- deus pressure against thebpoms which surround the lumber yardsand caused large piles of boards and timbers to topple and fall , the crash of each pile belngheardforalongdlatanoe. Mostol this lumber in tha Hoagland and Fos ter & Gray yards .was saved , after the unfinished boom belonging to the lat ter named firm was broken ; but the Chicago company fared worse. It was estimated last evening by lumber men , who haVe _ been .constantly on the scene ; ' that full ; 300,000 , FEET or TIMBIB. had been swept -out of the Chlcag : yard and taken down atream. A portion tion of this was caught near Boyd't packing hous , but the remainder swept on and is irreclaiBoaWy lost. Two of the booms which were stretch ed nearly straight acroaa the current through the yards , about six o'clock began , to "wobble , " and were again strengthened by extra cables. The amount of rope used In securing these booms will be no inconsiderable affair for the companies interested. THEOUOH THE SMELTnTQ WORKS the current rushed with increasing momentum , and juat after dark1 it car ried away another aection of the fence which has so valiantly , withstood the great force brought lagalnst It Nothing of a decided nature could be learned at a late hour last night as to the barn belonging to the U. P. com pany , and which , it was rumored , waa rising from Its foundations. The same I rumors existed In relation to the sash houses and offices of the Chicago com pany's and * Hoagland yarda , but they were notconfirmed by examination at 12 o'clock. The lumber men were all watchfulness and expressed confidence in their booms unless a rise of more than a foot more should come. In the latter event , however , they said that they couldn't tell what would happen. The pressure on the booms was so [ reat now that a break at any time would not surprise them. THE BATLKOADS. Next to the large amount of prop erty imperiled the blockade of travel [ a the most important The trains from the eastwith the ex ception of the Northwestern man aged to gat Into the depot in the forenoon. At 4 o'clock a neld- glass disclosed the Northwestern train about four miles up the river , at a dead stand. It was impossible to pro- caed farther.and only those passengers who had the hardihood to attempt it came inby the aid of wagons. In many place.on this road's track the water stands two feet deep. Three trains from the Rock Island road came , in , all in a bunch. Th'ia unsettled state of 'affairs waa caused by washouts in io'wa. The Burlington and Missouri train was run in on the Wabwh track ffomMalvern , la. A land elide at that point caused a slight delay of tha regular train. BABBED OUT. Although some of the tracks could be used for incoming trainsthe height of'the water at 6 o'clock In the after noon .rendered it very difficult for the trains going out from tha transfer depot to get through. All of the tracks were aeep in water , save the "Wabasfi , and the other tralna will net attempt crossing again. Between the bridge and the transfer platform , and the aitnation ot affairs ia very much aa it waa two weeks ago. The water baa washed away much of the earth under the track on both aidea of tie bridge overJSpoon lake , but flU cars which were run on before the waahont com menced and heavily loaded with iron , keep the raila in about the proper place. All of the flat cars are sunken nearly up to the tops of the trucks , but still famish a place for a rude plank ing , over which the through paisen- gera were yesterday obliged to walk , and the malls and baggage were car ried. Two transfers were made yea- terdsy , and all passengers carried safe ly across. TTTBTT. T. TTAS'HO'DT. About 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon , as the Union Pacific train was about to leave the Omaha depot for ita west ern run , the startllngintelligence came by telegraph that a portion of the approachea to the iron bridge over the Elkhorn river had been washed a.way , and It was impossible to get across. This deterred the train from starting. Later information confirmed the report TheElkhorn rose seven feet in two hours on Wednes day and rose rapidly yesterday. About 1:30 : three sections of the earthwork approach to the bridge from this elde suddenly gave way , and a yawning gap which it was impossible to bridge until the water went down , was opened. Train No. 4 , due here at 355 p. m. , had not reached the bridge. It was sent back to Fremont , where its pissengers are now , per force , rusticating. The Elkhorn , which falls as rapldiy as it rises , com menced to go down last night , and it is expected that facilities for trans ferring passengers will be ready by noon to-day , and the west bound travel and -traffic go through all right. The train from Lincoln cme in about 2:30 yesterday afternoon , having just passed the bridge before the breas : occurred. IK THE BLTJJTFS the altuation ia very nearly the same as it was two weeks ago. There Is water all over the bottom land , and nearly all of the families are out of their houses. The U. P. transfer hotel is again surrounded , and the fire undar the 'boilers has again gone out. The weather , however , being warmer , the absence of steam heat in the building is less uncomfortable. All of the C. , B. & Q. rolling stock was yesterday taken to higher ground. The arrival of the eastern trains last evening , with no way to get to the transfer except by boati , filled the hotels at the Bluffs. OK THIS SIDE the water Is causing mlschlevious damage in various ways. It seriously threatens the barns'in the Willow Springs distillery as well ai other low buildings. Work was shut down in the distillery yesterday , and the fires in the boilers were drawn. TWO O'CLOCK UPOBT. At two o'clock this morning the river waa at a point hitherto unsurpass ed , twenty-two feet and two inches above low water , and over three feet above the so-called high watar mark. The meesurement of the signal ser vice officers at 8 o'clock last evening showed twenty-one feet and ten inches , and up to the time of going to press the height waa steadily increasing. MOBE WATEB COMINO. The following dispatch waa received at THE BEE office about 12 e'clock last night , and la entirely relUblo. It presages a continuous rlae ot the "wa ter here for several days , and there Is little doubt that the effect will be moat disastrous. The following is the dis patch : BpeeUl Dispatch to TBI BK. Sioux Crrr , Ia. , April 22 Midnight The rirer hu risen twenty-three Inches in twenty-four hears , and is still rising slow ly. The wires are doxnand no news can be obtained from up the. river , but boat men report lots of snow yet-to melt. All the small streams are over their banks. In the city there are four hundred Lousts flooded or surrounded by the overflow. Jon. PIEBCE. CUT OFF OK ALL SIDES. With the possible exception of one read running eastward , Omaha will , by morning , probably be cut off from all rail connection , with the outer world. The railroad running north , the St. Paul & Omaha , is overflown , at the very threshold of the city. The B. &M. Is cut off this aide of Belle vuo. The break in the approach to the bridge over the Elkhorn effectu ally shuts off travel westward over the U. P. , or the O. & R V. road ; while the only outlet eastward ia hourly threatened.

The Plunder of No Value ; to the Burglars IB 'There' , an - Organized Gang in Town 9 A bold attempt at safe breaking at the U. P. coal house on' Thirteenth street' was recorded in THE BEE a few days since , and Wednesday an even bolder attempt was made at'the office of Hobble .Brothers , ticket brokers ) en Tenth street , near the depot. The burglars entered by forcing the front door , and aa a preliminary step went through a trunk' ' belonging to one Rudolph Jlarr , filled with clothing , which had been left in Hobble's office by its owner , an old friend of theirs. A large quantity of the clothing was taken out ; dampened and 'packed around the safe to deaden the sound when they should attempt to blow .off thiF < lpprv-A hota was drilled through the outer door , just above the.combinatibn , through which the powder waa placed. ' On arriving at the office at 8 o'clock yesterday Mr. . H. C. ' Hobble found the front door unfastened and enterIng - Ing discovered the nature of the event which , had occurred. The safe door waa blown open and partially shatter ed and the drawers in the lower part of the aafe had "been torn open and more or lesa broken to pieces. These drawers had contained certain valua ble papers , mortgages , deeds , etc. , which were of no value to the burglars , but all of which , had been taken and have not yet been recovered. The burglar proof box which con tained the railroad tickets and a small sum of money they had been unable to open , though it had been scratched and battered by their persistent at tempts. Two heavy iron barawhichthey bad used atood in a corner of the room and are apparently taken from aome lumber yard. The rear door of the office atood ajar , and several boards in the roof of the coal shed , into which ihls door opens , had been removed , while a piece of balustrade had been placed against the aide of the building aa a step. The burglara had thus pre pared for a quick egress from the rear n case they % ere discovered. Several boot tracks in the rear yard , which had bean partially washed out by the rain , in dicated that the work must have been done soon after midnight. Parties were sleeping next door on both aides of the office , but heard no sound. The manner in which the work was done indicates that this job , like that at the coal shed , was done by profes sionals , who are probably making their headquarters here.
