Bob Law and a Gang of Bridge Builders From the West Reach Duncan. From Fatarday Evening’s Brx. Brief details reach us of a condition of sffairs on the U. P. railroad in the neighborbood of North Bend, which s most slarming, having alresdy destroyed thousande of dellars worth. of rallrosd _property snd caused grest Inss to hundreds of individuals, while still greatec losses sro threatened. Au e gorge has been forming in the Platte river at that point for seversl days and ye y afternoon st 4 o'clock reached a point where it sud- denly rose sbove the banks and swept over the prairie in the direction cf North Platte in s devastating flood. A mile and a half of U. P. track was swept away at once. General Saper- intendent Clark and Eogineer Lane were at North Bend, where Mr. Clark has been superiutending the buildiog of the mew track and watching the river, These gentlemen returned to Omaba this morning, and Mr. Clark informed & BzE reporter that the U. P. track was covered with water for miles, that the streets of North Bend were flooded several foet deep, snd that many of the people slept lust zight on the depot platform. Clark remarked with grim humor that if the company “‘waated to ge into the ice business they could now fill their station building at Nurtk Bend feom the platform.” THE TRAINS, The west bound cxpress, which left here yesterday expected to go through over the U. P. line, by the new tem track west of Fremont, but on reaching that town was held to awsit the threatened inundation at North Bend, and finally to Omaba last evening. The east bound express came through all n'gl;‘tl,nnnehlng here on time. The west d express was held here until this morning when it was sent west by way of Connail Bluffs, Pacific Junction and Platts- ‘mouth. THE WHY ANKD WHEREFORE. ‘The cause of this change of route is the temporary.abandonment by the B. &M. Co. of their bridge over the Platte at Orespolie. It fa believed that this bridge will not go, but in the present condition of things and with the threatened rise when the gorges break above it is not considered safe to ron the risk. The ice was passing e i of werkil 2 eng: 4 tecting the piors. Movawhile all B, S pemenge, wilro ot prsint , will run for the presen by way of the U. P., the Kausas City youd, & M. bridge at SITUATION AT 2:30 P. M. Kimball and Sa- perintendents Clark and Nichols were absorbed in the labor incldent to the situation when a Bxe reporter called at2:30 p. m. It was plain that the news from the threatened country was not of a cheerful character. It was ed that the water had been slow- A telegram was received during the sunouncing that the Loup bridgeon the Norfolk had gone out, but s it was slso learned that the whole valley of the Loup was flooded, and that the parties by hom he was made were unable to h'nu:op::. at the headquarters that the report false one. The ice Is pour- it Har valley that unless the peo- region took measures some ‘advanoe there must inevitably loss of property and orol loss of life. One telegram sunounced that » family st one point not learned were on the eve of perishivg in the waters when a locomotive and party were sént to their relief and took them out.

An -rfi'io: many square miles is coyered witl water, and it fs most difficuit to lesrn st what point te commence operations, if indeed, anything is practicable. The E’:t of most serious danger on the Loupe is between Genos sud Lost Creek. ‘The Situation Saturcay Night. On Saturday cveaing the #ituation, aa recorded in telogram: TU. P. headquarters, fram time to time, was as follows: The rumor that the Loup furk bridge of the Omaba, Nio- brara & Black Hills branch, was car- ried away, was oonfirmed to the ox- teat that it is known that part of the bridge isgone. Itwss also lesrned that the Loup fork bridge of the Grand Teland & St. Paul road had been car- ried sway. Four spas of the bridge were thrown upon the bank, while two floated down the river. Wagen bridges were also reported generally washed away. The gorges in the Loup had broken and were swelling ' the flood in the main stream, which at some polnts was reported as risiog ten feet in an hour and a half. While the details with regard to the effects of this rise were meagre, it is evident that buildings, hay stacks, fences, farming machinery and vast quanti- ties of live stock have been swept y,.and there is no question that y lives have been lost, how many cin only be learned when the water goes down. The situation at Benton, anew station bstween Columbus and Schuyler, was terrible. Here, within a fow hours, there was ten feet of water, where not drop had been seen in the morning. About ten familtes residing on low ground were caught by the riseand had no time to reach higher ground. The waier came up 8o rapidly that they were driven to the roofs of their dwellings, where they could be plainly seen before dark from the town. The only boat in the village was a small and unsafe one, which could not stand for a moment the surging maelstrom of ice and water. A relief party was organized, which could do mnothing but take positions at tha edge of the waterand walt for it to fall. Parts of houses, bridges, barns, hay stacks, and the dead bodies of numberless stock were soan to drift by. One family was re- ported drowned. All the stock in the locality was said to be lost. At the Iast report, received in the evening, the water had fallen two feet ‘At Colambus six spans of the hand- some wagon bridge across_the Loup were washed away. This bridge was constracted five years ago ata cost of $50,000. It wasa Howe trass with 150 feet spans. Three spans of the pile bridge which forms the approach to the fine fron railroad bridge over the Loup, had gone out, the track between the approach and the fron bridge being washed away to a depth of about three feet, while ties and iron were tumbled into the ditch on the south side. Three-quarters of s mile of track west of the bridge was destroyed. Several families living on the Platte bottoms east of the town were surrounded, and at last reporis in danger of losing theirlives. Three small children were reported lost on the west side of the Loup. At North Bend part of the new $16,000 wagon bridge was carried away, and the railroad track washed out for over amile. In the evening dispatch was received from the ope tor at North Bend, announcing that an immense body of water from the Loup river was reported to be at hand, and people were preparing to leave town if necossary. At 9:30p.m. a dispatch was received aunouncing that the high water had reached the town, and was rising fast, while people on every side were voring to save their stock and property from the flood. At this juncture the wires went down, and what has transpired since s only & matter of conjecture, The wave reached Schuyler between 9and 10 'clock, and the town soon became flooded, and citizens proceeded to load themselves and their goods so far 23 possible, and a train at the sta- tion, which was in readiness to move when necessary. An engine and ca- boose were sent to Rogers’ side track to rescue two families. At this time the flood severed the telegraphic com- munication with Schayler, and noth- ing has been learned from there since. At Fremont the citizens had erected a dam to protect the most exposed portion of the town, but this wes washed away in the evening by the water, and the towa flooded. Heavy loss was anticipated, but no danger to life. Another heavy gorge was repcrted as having broken st Genos, on the Al- bion branch of the Union Pacific, last night, and another flood on its way down the Loup and Platte, Tnformation came from Lincoln, in a dispatch to The Herald of yesterday, that Salt creek had been rising stead- ily for twenty-four hours, until i had spread over the boitom weat of the side tracks for half a mile and for three blocks into the city. The de- ts were surrounded with water, the ouses on the bottoms vacated and loose articles floatlog about. The only way of reaching the depot wasby asmall elevated food bridge, which was threatened with being washed sway last night. The tracks over the bottom were submerged, aud railroad tes, telegraph poles and wood and empty barrels floating abcut. Boats mnrrying{punn(en to and from thedepot. No trains had been run to or from Centrsl City or Colam- bus. The train from Nebraska City went off the track near the prison switoh at 9 o'clock in the evening, no- body hzins hurt. The train was aban- doned, and the prizengers walked into Lincoln through two feet of water. State of Affairs on Yesterday. . Telegraphic communication west of Fromont remained broken all day yes- terdsy. The Platte flood had swept along exstward, submerging and possi- bly washing out part of the U. P. track. The Fremont U. P. express traln, which has taken the place of the through express duriog the interrup- tion in travel, only went to Vallay yesterday and returned in the after- noon. It way evident on the ratura trip that it would not be safe for an- other train to ran beyond Elkhorn, for the entire Platte Valley, several miles in width at this polnt, was one broad sheet of water. General Superintendent Clark left for Eikhorn in a special train yester- day morning, ascompanied by & gang of telegraph repairers. It was Mr. Clark's intention to leave his train at Elkhorn, and procesd west to Valley on a hand car, and from Valley west in whatever ‘manner should prove practicable.” The telegraph men were to establish connection in whatever way should prove most ble with the towns in the fi region, 1€ the water atill keeps up, & line will be run on the higher ground where- ever it can be dome most rapidly. Mr. Clark will direct the operations of a forceof fifty men—| builders, repairers, eto. —who left North Platte yesterday afternoon for the weshouts in charge ot Division Superintendent Rob. Law, of “the Montana division. The force will be increased to seven- ty-five men when it reaches tho toene of cperations, and is fully equi with bridge material. Sk A il railroad officlal ststed yesterday that it would be but a few days, after the freshet was over, be- fore the Ualon Pastfic would be ran- ning traios. A foroe will be set at work which, 1t i believed, will com plete the work within a week afier operations are begua. People who came in last night from Valley stated that many fsrmers and their families had succeeded in resca ing Valley, bu: in an utterly destitute condition, avd many having barely encaped with their lives, Many fauc- flies are missing who would naturally have started for Valley, and it is be- lieved they sre drowned. Reports from Columbus snd Dan- can received afterncon, vis. had gonms at ‘those points and the danger was considered past. Tae destruction of the B. & M. ‘bridge over Salt creek at Lincola hap- ned just in time to leave the weat Bound’ Union Pacific express of Sat- urdsy sud the esst bound exprers of o-day on opposite bsaksof the stream. tach on the wrong baok to complete es trip. A large force of men wers itt st work to replace it yesterday,and n—hup.uu ‘that it will be completed is morping. thSeveral bents of the B. & M. bridge across the Platte at Oreopolis went out yesterday mcrning and it will be some days, under the most favorable circumstances, before travel is re- sumed in that direction. General Manager Touzalin informed “nl B;l reporter yesierday, however, that the remainder of the track was in perfect condition, that it was considered se- cure agmnst the a] ing flood from above and that passenger and t trains would run regularly, go- ingby way of Plattsmouth. It was reported yesterday morning that the B. & M. tracks were threatened and the U. P. contemplated running the everland train by way of St Joseph and the St. Joe & Western railroad or Kunsas City, the Kansas Pacific and one of the Northern Col- orado roads. Mr. Touzalin’s state- ment shows that the B. & M. track is all right. The west bound U. P ex- press of yesterday had not left ata late hour last night. THE LATEST. At 10 o'clock Jast evening the Un- ion Pacific live repairers from the west had established communication between Omaha and Columbus,Schuy- ler, Benton and North Band by way of Kearney. The water was re- ported as about out at all these towns, and no further information was given 84 to the probable loss of life, or the extent of the damage. Superintend- ent Clark and his party reached Valloy on hand cars, and procseded from that point to Fremont in a wagon. He telegraphed last evening that the P].m;d receded from Kremont. The B. & M. had information at the same hour that Salt creek waas still raging, but that no serious results were probable, No buildings in Lin- coln had been damaged, and tte B. & M. track was all right. The Platte was reported very high, but the track all right. Twenty-seven hundred feet of the embankment on thelr Colum bus branch, near Columbus, where the country is very low, was washed away.
