from Butte to Silver Bow. The
only serious delay to the Short Line
trains was to the one that should
have left Butte Wednesday after
noon, which did not get out till 4
o'clock yesterday morning, and the
one that was due to leave Butte
early yesterday morning, but did
not depart till 10:40 O'clock. The
train from the south, due in Butte
at 4:45 o'clock Wednesday afternoon,
got in at $50 o'clock yesterday
morning. Yesterday afternoon, it
was claimed, the Short Line trains
were running nearly on time.
Late last night the Short Line
tracks became somewhat damaged
again and the train due to leave for
the south at 2 o'clock this morn
ing was ordered held in Butte until
daylight.
For a few hours yesterday it look
ed as if the storm had passed and
good weather have arrived to stay.
But about 4 o'clock the rain came
down ir torrents again. At dark
this turned into a snowstorm and
the indications are that there will
be several inches of snow upon the
ground this morning.

Missoula, June 5.-At 6 100 o'clock
tonight the flood situation in western
Montana is growing more serious each
minute. The Great Northern branch
lines are out of service, and the main
line in northern Montana is cut in
several places. The Northern Pacific
trains that were started eastward out
of Spokane over the Great Northern
tracks are tied up again. There is no
communication east of Missoula by
rail or telegraph.
All the streams continue to rise.
The big Blackfoot river is nearing it's
highest food mark. The Northern
Pacific lost several miles of track here
during the day. At Bonita, Nimrod
and Bearmouth the telegraph opera
tors have been compelled to leave
their posts, driven out by the rising
water. At Garrison nearly all the res
idents have fled from their homes, and
are camped on the hills in the rain.
This afternoon the Northern Pacific
released by wagon transfer 200 of the
passengers that had been marooned
east of here. They will be sent to
Spokane on made-up train. Among
the passengers who have been flood
bound, and who came in this after
noon, is Emma Goldman, the anarch-
ist lecturer, and who is now in Mis-
soula.
An attempt was made to have her
address the passengers at Drummond,
but the passengers would not permit
it. DR.. Reitman, Miss Goldman s
manager, had a narrow escape from
rough treatment during one of the
early days of the delay. He was smok-
ing in the observation car of the ma
rooned train and some ladies asked
him to stop He refused and his man
ner was offensive. A man who noticed
the incident scored Reitman roundly
and threatened to thrash him. Reitmar
made warm retort, and the members
of the Tacoma baseball team, who
were on the train, threatened to throw
him into the river.
The damage to the new roadbed Of
the St. Paul line between Missouls
and Butte will not fall short of a mil
lion dollars, and is becoming greater
all the time.
