morning registered 46 feet, decline of
inches during the past ID hours A negro
man is reported drowned on Bob Neal g
place, opposite here last evening. No
decline in the overflow back in the bot
toms and it will require considerable more
fall of the river to produce material
change in the situation behind the levees.
The water from the great st. Francis
basin IS coming out rapidly, and is as
clear as crystal. having deposited its load
of murky sediment IN that dismal bay.
Preparations for new crop are ener-
getically going forward, The damage to
the Mobile & Northwestern railway bed
win be quickly repaired, as soon as the
water fails sufficiently to admit of work.
Trains will probably be moving over the
line within two weeks Currents through
the crevasses south of this point are all
improving. As yet the outflow can't be
delayed many days It will go with o
rush when it is once started.
