ST. LOUIS, March 3l.-Prentiss Teller,
money clerk of the Pacific Express Company
here, whose father is a Louisville detective,
disappeared yesterday about o'clock P. NJ,
taking with him ore or two valises full of
money packages the total amount being
nearly S75, 900. It is the custom of the com.
pany to keep the money clerk and day watch
man on duty in the office on Sunday, the
doors being secured by chain locks and no
one being admitted save messengers who az
rive on the morning trains and have money
packages to turn over. Yesterday afternoon
Teller was on duty, and the watchman re-
manned in back room tending to door, the
front doors being kept locked. About .
o'clock the watchman went out 70 lunch,
leaving three messengers sitting by the stove.
While he was gone Teller went out and re.
turned with a stranger, whom the mes
sengers supposed to be a new clerk or mes
senger. Teller and the stranger went into
the front office and were thought no more Of.
An hour later Teller came into the back
Office to wash his hands, and remarked to the
watchmaD, who had returned, that he be-
lieved he would go cut and get some lunch.
Wiping his hands, he re-sntered the front
office and was not seen again. Half an hour
afterwards the wstchmsn walked into the
front office to get something, and was eur
prised to find the front door unlocked and
Teller absent. He spoke of it TO the mes
sengers who were sitting by the stoya in the
rear, and they told him Of the stranger.
This alarmed him and he summoned the
Superintendent, who soon discovered that

Bismarck Tribune: Although the ad-
vices from above do not indicate that the
people of the lower river will be endan.
gered by foods this spring, still it isbest
always to be prepared. The Missouri, is
an uncertain stream, and floods are at.
tributable more particularly to the con-
dition Of the weather at this season than
the amount of snow or ice. A peculiar.
ity of the Missouri river is that it breaks
at its source first, followed by all tribu.
tary streams, flowing into the
parent river above Bismarck.
Continued warm weather in Mon.
tana and continued cold weather
from Buford down are favorable condi
tion for q flood. By this condition of
the weather the ice remains firm in the
lower river and its break is forced by the
quantity Of water from above. The ice
then breaks in large cakes and gorges
are frequent. The low lands are over.
flowed and thus the damage to property
on bottom lands. A few days ago It
locked as If the floods OF 1881 would be
repeated. The Yellowstone broke
and its waters raised the
Missouri, at Buford, ten feet,
Had warm weather continued the break
would have continued down stream and
foods would have been inevitable. The
sudden fall in the temperature, however,
tended to check the break and hold the
ice solid. 1t this condition Of affairs con.
tinnes the waters from the upper tribu.
