giving his attention to the crswded condition
OF the levee, and is having the piles of freight
removed as rapidly as means OF transporta-
ton can he obtained. He declares that II the
levee is not kept clear he will do so himself,
and tax the owners of the freight allowed to
remain beyond the lawful limit of time.

the ground near where the assault was made
