BREAKING UP or TIE ICE AT Albany.

ip,oisl Dispatch 10 Tho N. Y. Tribune.


ALBANY, Wednesday, Feb 1912 m.
The ice broke up in the river opposite this
city this morning, at 6 O'Clock, and the water
rose perhaps 10 feet, submerging Broadway from
Hudson street to the river
The food had been anticipated, aud the goods
in the warehouses and stores along the docks
were hoiSted into the upper stories, and thus
generally we're protected from damage. The
rapid rise was occasioDed by the river being
choked up with ice about two miles below the city.
The damage is estimated at 500, 000-but
may prove to be greater. II was immediately
caused by rush of ice in the central part Of
