HELENA, April I5.-F.arly today
an uncontrollable flood is rapidly
advancing up on Great Falls, a city
of 15,000 population and it is be
lieved that the Boston, and Montana
smelter,, one, of the largest in the
world is doomed to destruction, it
id built on the river bank and fears
for, its Safety are felt at each re
currence of" high water, Its employes
number more than 1500 men.
The employes have been engaged
alii night in the 'construction of a
wing dam around the smelter. Prep
arations have also been made to
dynamite "the dam at Crcat Falls
from which the smelter secures its
power, and this may be done as a
last resort.
It is believed that the flood will
reach the city by daylight and that
the lowlands of the town will be
submerged before noon.
Craig, Mont., probably has been
wiped off the map, although as far
as is shown, all of the 400 inhabitants
escaped. Cascade, a town of 400
population, 69 miles from Helena and
23 miles north of Craig, is now un
der water, and in danger of being
swept away.
A relief train and inspection party
s scheduled to leave Great Falls at
3 o'clock this morning to investigate
the situation. Thus far no loss of
life has been reported although the
river is thickly strewn with the
debris of ranch houses and haystacks, j
among which many animals are bat
tling for their lives. Officials of the
company announce. their intention of
beginning the rebuilding of the
structure at once and have
plans to supply their customers with
power until1 the work is completed.
