Gated by reliable information just

The ice in the Missouri river at
Bismarck began to break up Wednes-
day evening about 8 o'clock, and by
II o'clock last night it had commenced
to move from below the Northern
Pacific bridge. The flow of ice pro-
ceeded slowly, and was at times inter
rupted by small gorges forming at
the head Of Sibley Island. Grave ap-
prehensions were felt as to the prob
ability Of . flood at this point, but
at the, time of going to press the rise
in the river has ceased, temporarily
at least. and the flood stage Is not
yet been reached. Thursday morning
the river was but 0.6 foot below the
danger stage, and notice was sent
out to residents in the lowlands south
of the city to prepare to move out.
The ice is solid and does not ap-
pear to be honeycombed to any ex-
tent. It has been holding fairly solid
at points below the city, and this was
taken as an omdnous sign. About ten
o'clock water commenced to pour over
the banks south of the city, owing to
a small gorge, but this gave way and
the stream slIbslded below 1lOOd stage
again. At 1 p. m. Thursday, the ice
is flowing along without interruption,
and there is possibility that flood
will be avoided.
All morning long there was con-
slant stream of autos and rigs en-.
route to the river and hundreds of per-
sons footed it out to the bridge to
watch the ice move by. The school
children were granted half holiday
in the morning that they might watch
the majestic scene. They resumed
their studies in the afternoon.
Word reached the city this morning
that the big gorge above Williston,
estimated as being eight miles long
broke at 4 o'clock Thursday morning,
and was moving south. It will prob
ably reach here some time Friday
morning, and may cause another gorge
