Ail effort today were directed to removing houaehold good and merchandise out of reach of the flood. Every team in the city haa been engaged in thla work. Every resident and business Arm of River street have moved out. The Chippewa Lumber and Boom mill and yard are under company water, and all hope haa vanished of saving the entire business portion of the place from being submerged, and the water will aoon reach the courthouse, eight blocks from the river. A' report from Little Falla was brought In thla morning that another gorge wa formed thirty miles above here, and thla greatly added to the alarm, end In case It should break, nothing could save the city from being wept away. Reports of a Very serious nature come from down the river. The country everywhere le flooded. The gorge continues to grow In extent It la now five mile long and In many place thirty to fifty feet high.

The Chippewa river Is filled with gorge at many poluta. At Flambeau farm the river ran over Its banks, destroying 300 head of live stock and ruining a dozen farms. It la feared the course of the river will be changed, throwing It directly on the town and Completely Inundating It. In that event heavy loss to property and llfe,cannot be avoided. The business portion of Chippewa Falls Is abandoned tonight, and the .flood may sweep away many of the building without damaging scarcely a dollar's worth of merchandise and other valuable goods that were stored there until today. Business men decided not to take chances with the foe that threatened to sweep their possessions from them, and at an early hour they began the removal of their stocks. At 6 oclock tonight every business house on Spring street and Bridge street from the river to Center street Is the contents of buildings have been stored In unoccupied structure In remote portion of the city, where the floods cannot reach unless the entire city Is overwhelmed and swept away. The Chippewa river show no signs of abatement. It rose four feet today and at 9 oclock this evening the water Is rising at the rate of two Inches an hour. The postoflice Is under three feet of aler, and Postmaster McCall has moved the office seven blocks from Its old location. Ten stores on the south side of Spring street are Inundated.

At Chippewa Falls the river Is fully of a mile wide, and Its surface Is covered with Ice to a depth varying from ten to thirty feet. The most stubborn resistance offered by the obstruction Is In that portion of the river between the wagon bridge and the Central railroad bridge, about half a mile In Ice-pac- k three-quarte- length. 18i)G NUMBER 44, retary Robrrt Burke, President Carter WORK FOR CONGRESS.
