Same.

The Hon. Casey Young, Chairman;
General w. j. Smith and Messrs. A.
Woodruff, S. j. Camp, H. A. Mont
gomery, +. S. Davis and r. +. Patter-
son were appointed a committee yes
terday at the Cotton Exchange meet
ing to consider the best means ofrem-
edying the present rapid tumbling of
the central landing river front, below
the mouth Of Wolf and to the foot of
Washington, the committee to report
as early as possible to the Cotton Ex-
change, the object being to memorial
ize Congress for means to defray the
expenses of the work. Business men
and engineers are divided in opinions
as to the method to be properly pur-
sued. Major Benyaurd, the Govern
ment Engineer, is inclined to pile
driving and willow mattresses as the
best preventive. Practical riva'
men and others who have had long
experience with caving banks oppose
this system. Major Benyaurd esti-
mates the probable cost Of the kind
OF protection he favors at about
SIT 900, and this sum would carry the
work as far south as Beale street. He
considers the banks we'll protected
already from Wolf river to the cotton
press in the old Navy Yard. The
gradual caving Of the banks near the
newly constructed elevator, and which
now threatens to undermine that i'm
portant structure at no distant day,
was the question which caused the
meeting yesterday. 1t is an important
topic, in which the entire mercantile
and marine community are interested,
and it is generally admitted that no
delay should be permitted in the eff
forts to check the caving movement

warned by the conductor to stand
back they persisted. Mcfarland
finally approached them and asked
where they were from, and one oil
