Until a few days ago automobiles could cross on the ice which ranged in thickness of about nine inches. To Get Packet Capt. Joe Weich, who has been on the “Missouri river for 40 years and of pranks, said that he had never witnessed a similar condition. Welch said that the packet Benton, which he handled during the summer, had been frozen in at Deopolis, but that it was not damaged in the bteaking up of the ice. If the river got clear of the ice flow he planned packet back to Bismarck to be put up for the winter. Supt.
