Feb. 19-An Evening Journal special from Lyons says the situation is becoming hourly more alarming. Persons coming in from up the river say that the Lansing ice has nearly reached here and that it is a tremendous body of water. Buildings are being anchored in expectation of the Lansing ice coming across the prairie. It is feared the water will yet reach five feet above the present limits.
