In the lower Taller of the Platte the water waa very high during Sunday afternoon and nut night At the town r La Platte the Platte river raised all car and at night was rtmninc over the grade of the Missouri Pacific on either side of the bridge, though not Impeding the movement of train. Reports received at the office of the Nebraska, railroad Sunday were to the effect that not a wagon bridge ever the Platte rtrer. with the exception of the one at La Platte, ha been saved. Bartiaatea Heavy i-eeer. The Burlington was probably the heavi est sufferer during Paturdsv and Satur day night. I'p to Saturday It had been able to maintain regular service out of Omaha to the m-est. Saturday night, . however, this service was all shot to piece when one bridge and two culvert on the Omaha-Lincoln line went out be tween Omalia and Ashland. This was a serious blow to the Union Pacific that for two days had been routine; all of Its trains over the Burttngton to Lincoln, t Bonos to Kearney, where they got back unto the company's own line. With the going eat of the bildges on the tine between Omaha and Ashland trains for Lincoln were sent around St t mites la order to cover the fifty-five mile between the two cities. From Omaha they crossed Into Iowa and went down to Part fie Junction, there being ) diverted fo the line running down' the 'river to Kapler, Mo. There the trains 'were crossed over and run to Table Hock, Nab., and thence transfered onto a short line reaching Lincoln. Passengers going to Lincoln over ths usual route pay d.M. but by the route traversed Sunday they paid KM, and were on the road about ten hours. Eearraaont "ridge Oet. From Lincoln west on the Denver line there was mtle difficulty, but the trouble was serious on the line to the northwest. The company had recently completed the repairing of ths wsshout at the t'heyenns river crossing at Udgemont, 8. t. Hatur day. owing to the nv't'ng snow, ths water in thl a I ream again reached the flood stage, washing out the new work and tearing away considerable of the old grade, As a result of the washout oa the Bur. 'lingua east of Ashland, then was no train out or In Omaha Saturday Bight or Sunday morning over the Union Pacific Late In the afternoon repairs were made on the line between Grand Island and Fremont, and half a dona trains want out, using I he Northwestern trees Into Fremont. Beyond that point the track was soft, but with the repairs made, trains were able to get over th road, crawling; along at a snail speed, A aether Laagf ate. Saturday th Union Pacific had a bad washout between Sidney and Jules burg, completely putting that portion of the road out of commission. Trains for th coast and for Uenvee left the Unloa Pari fie mala lis at O' Fallon and run to Newport. There they were picks! up by th Burlington and hauled down t Sidney and from there proceeded west Daring Saturday th Burilnxton handled seventeen of these passenger trains for th Union Pacific." Th Union Pacific's branch from Co lumbus to Norfolk Is still out of service, but It Is thought that repslia will be mad by today, f v Mere Tvwahl. l-aohed For. i Saturday eight the Northwestern 'ue oeeded hv rwalrlnf tba .washout on Its line at irtlrlrrmt and Sunday the train te th iMrtk west weal oat and arrived on schedule, Howsver. mors trouble Is looked for today when the rise la ths Klkhora get daw oet th low lands sbov Kre- Northwest. territory la th south west Is still without service, owing to hlgb water and the wrecking of th bridge over th Platte at Fremont..

Ths North Fork river at Norfolk has fallen a coaple of feet, but the Elknura has risen and caused trouble below here. No trains entered Norfolk yeeterday ex cepting from the Rosebud country on the north and from th west. Five miles of Northwestern track at Beemer. Wlsnsr and West Point are, under water so that no trains ere reaching Norfolk from Omaha, excepting by detouring at Bcrib ner to Oakdale and then to Norfolk. The flood Is th worst in the history of Nebraska, the gauge at the Norfolk mill showing the highest water sine th mill wss built forty-three years ago. A number of school teachers who had been attending the North Nebraska asso ciation convention at Norfolk were taken to their home at Madison and toterme- dlt Milages on a handcar, a washout at Madison on the Union Peine having paralysed train service In that direction. During their stay at the convention some of the teachers hsd been carried from their hotels in men's arms and than transported through the flooded streets in dray. rart af Kearney Bridge Go.

(From a Staff Correspondent.) WASHINGTON. March a. (Special Telegram.) The Borah homestead bill l by no means out of the woods, as se rious difference are likely to arise when It come before the house snd sen ate conferees. Congressmen Tsylor, one of tho house conferees, said today that he would never consent to a conference agreement unless the Klnkaid amendment or som similar provision, making the bill apply to pending quarter and halt sections, were recommended. On the other hnd the friends of the bill fear that if this amendment 1 In corporated it will be vetoed by the presi dent. They base this opinion on the fact that the president vetoed the "burnt tim ber" bill yesterday, presumably because Secretary Fkthr of th interior depart ment was opposed to It. Sine the secre tary is si so opposed to having th Borah Mil eatery to pending en tries, they bellsv that th president Is disposed to stand by ths recommendation of hi cabinet offi cer In all auck matter and would there fore kill th Borah bill. Th "burnt timber" hill provided that settlers, who In the recent forest fires In Montana lost heavily, tn allowed to cut and ael! th remaining timber in th burnt district to help recoup their losses.
