OUTLOOK 7B8TKKDAY
A B1GHER RISE THAK EVZB IN PROS-
TSCX.
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. . They received the following tel
egram about 10 a. m. :
Sioux Crrr , April 21,1881.
C. W. 3fead , Omaha :
. ' Hirer TOSS one foot five inches lagtnight ,
and is'now one inch below the highest rite
of. the season , which was the 7th , and is
rising. T. J. STONE.
It Is jearn ' d that the Driver is also
rlaing.at Fc. Thompson. That this
means a 'considerably lirger rise "for
Omaha' than that of. a few days atnce
jail the interested.parties concede.
_ THB RATDBOADS AKD MAILS.
All trains from the east reached
Council. 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. Verily , the mighty watera
are round about us

the Safe.
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.
