THE ROYALTON BRIDGE.
1t Is Now in a Dangerous Con-
dition and. Traffic over it.
y Has Been Stopped.

The ROyaltOn Mississippi bridge
which the citizens Of that place have
been fighting 80 herOicaliy during the
last week to save, had narrow
Escape from destruction Saturday
afternoon. and although 1t fs still
sta nding it il said to be in IA lady
damaged condition, and will need
considerably repairs before traffic
over it can he resumed.
The large log aud ice gorge which
rested on the head Of the island
about u half mile above the bridge,
broke Saturday afternoon and in
going down the logs and ice tore out
nearly all of the piling on the west
side Of the middle pier. That por-
ton Of the middle pier on which the
west span Uf the superstructure
rests was all torn out with the ex.
ceptiops Of two pii;ngs and one Of
these is badly split. This is all that
holds up one end uf the west span.
This morning several RoyaltOn
citizens came up here to get large
boat with which to stretch II shear
boom to- prevent the logs from doing
farther damage to the now shnky
pier. They will also try with the
aid of the boat to put in braces that
will assist the two piling in holding
up the span until the water goes
down and more substantial repairs
can he made. 1t is also reported
from ROyaltOn that Il portion Of the
Muncy dam. about q mile above the
village. has gone out. The large log
and ice jam which broke at the
RoyaItOn bridge Saturday afternoon
went through st. Paul Sunday after
noon. which shows how complete
has been the destruction of the boom
works at Minneapolis.

NO DAMAGE EXPECTED.
The Wateris High and There
is a Large Log Jam. but no
~ Damage is Feared.
THE NEW BOOM WORKS ARE SOLID.
The Jam Moved at Noon Today
but Hangs up on the Pine
H.. Tree Boom Works.

The situation In the Mississippi ut
this place has changed consitierab bly,
since last Saturday evening. but at
present, though the j. water IN con-
sidcrably higher. than Saturday and
there are two large jams above the
city, there IL no seriOls damage an
ticipated.
Saturday night the river rose very
RI pitily. ard in one hour 1t IL said to
have rieen eleven inches. At II
o'clock Saturday night the water
was the highest. and was within a
few inches of the highest point
renc he'd last yenr. After that time
tho water continued to falf until
about six O'Clock Sunday evening.
During that time 1t II said. by parties
,, who were watching the water atthe
Broadway bridge, to have fallen
fourteen inches. At 6o'clOck Sunday
eve ming it hogan rising again, but IL
still several Inches below the h'ghesG
point reached Saturday night.
The sudden rise Of Saturday night
was caused by one Of the jams up
river moving. There are two jams
above this city. The first one rests
on the new boom works put In by
the Pine Tree Lumber company last
winter. aud the other H. formed at
the Belle Pruiri. rapids, about two
miles farther up.
At noon today one Of the h0Oms
broke and Il portion Of the lower
lam started. 1t did not ~ far before
1t hung up on TIE network ct piers,
and there il little doubt but that 1t
will remain there until the drivers
break it tO sort the logs as soon as
the miu starts. There Ia consider
able Ice in the jam. and as this melts
it will probably cause the jam to
move some, hut the Pine Tree COM
pany are comic ent that unless there
il n great rive In the water the boom
works will hold 1t.
H. A. Conner, foreman Oi the river
crew, snid today that ne did not al''

THOUGHT TO BE SAFE.
The Work Done viii Probably
Save the Royalton Bridge
From Damage.

b. Stuart, who Yesterday after
noon took down the fifty pounds vi
dynamite, which was tclephoned for
to pc used In breaking up the ice
above the Royalton mississippi
bridge. returned home last night.
Mr.. Stuart said that there was u
large force Of men at work. and they
were doing everything. possible to
save the bridge from damage or de-
struction by the lie and logs. and
Mr.. Stuart thinks that their efforts
have, been successful aud that there
IL not much further cause Tor alarm.
The Ice for Il distance Ut about
forty rods above the bridge has been
all blasted out lea wing the river clear
near the bridge 10 that the ice and
logs can be carried away without
any gorge forming at the bridge.
There is gorge ri Ice and logs about
half mile above the bridge, which
rests on the head Oi one Of the lsl-
ands. Between this gorge and tn"

should the gorge break It would he

l. thought, do any damage to the
bridge.

proved oi benefit az there was a
small gorge formed on 1t. which
broke up and went under the bridge
without touching the ture.
Mr.. Stuart says the river IL VERY
high at that place. and the Ice gorge
has caused the water to flow around
On the flats Of james Muncey's farm
several feet deep. The road to the
bridge CROSSES this tiut and Ia turn
piked. The water IL several feet
deep at this place. and will probably
wash out the turnpike. Logs and
Ice are going down bv this new
channel.
While the danger ia not entirely
over. Mr.. Stuart says tina, he thinks
there il but little cause to fear for
the safety III the bridge unlets the
water rises considerably more and
the lie and log gorge accumulates
much more before 1t breaks.
