Vermillion Submerges
More Land.

Vermillion, S. D.. March 1.-THE wa
ter of the Missouri river is again
spreading out over the bottom lands to
the west Of Vermillion and southwest
OF Gayville. The rise in the river which
was reported from Chamberlain Satur-
dayday struck the big ice gorge about
s o'clock Sunday morning. AS the
channel above the gorge was full 10 the
banks before the high water came
down the three-foot rise is rapidly in
undating the lowlands. The people
fearing that there will be q greater
flood thar that of two weeks ago. are
alarmed.
More Farms Submerged.
The land which is now overflowed
consists partially of that which was
flooded during the first rise and also of
many hundreds of acres farther up
the river, in Meekling township. All
along the bottoms, from the ice gorge
TO a point six miles southwest of Meek
ling, known as Hagan's bend. the low
land is more or less under water. The
flood water seems to be still rising and
the Milwaukee officials are afraid that
unless the water begins to recede
the tracks of the line west of Vermil-
lion will be washed out
Cut Off From Gorge.
Government Engineer w. d De-
Witt, who had planned to start for
the gorge with powder Monday
morning, has given up that course, as
he finds that because of the high
water he will not be able to get near
the Ice. He asserts that in his opin-
lon the high water will carry the
gorge out, but the farmers along the
bottoms cannot be persuaded that such
Is the probability and they are desert
ing their homes for the bluffs.
MIR. Dewitt has been trying to get
communication with Yankton, but so
far he has failed. The telephone Enc
to Gayville has also been cut off. but
whether the high water broke the lire
IS not known definitely.

Aberdeen, S. D., March S.-Fearing a
break of the ice jam at Mobridge, and
the carrying away of the temporary
bridge across the Missouri at that
point, the Milwaukee and st. Paul
rushed three engines through here to
get across the structure. 1t was a race
against the weather. the engines being
bound for the other side of the Mis-
souri,, where the construction of work is
going on in connection with the Mil
waukee's Pacific coast extension.
A report stated that the bridge is
in danger of being washed away, that
the ice appears to be ready to break
and that if it does, the structure car
not withstand the pressure.
abatement of the disease. To add to
the strife and hard feeling among
farmers, ana especially among those
who have suffered the loss of a number
of animals, is the dispute between the
ex-state's attorney and the present in
cumbent; n of them arguing that the
disease is CHAMBERS and the other that
it Is not. In the meantime the trouble
is spreading among the animals and
the loss before it is stamped out will
mount into thousands of dollars.
