Crooked Course Of the River.

Mr.. E. Hammer writes to the EVENING LIGHT
as follows:
You would do a good service 10 the public
by writing an article aDout the following
facts:
l. !: is well known that the san Antonio
river from time 70 time OverflOws, doing much
damage to the neighbOring citizens; many
houses are washed away, and four lives have
been lost since 1864.
. The main causes are the crooked course OF
the river and the Instructions as walls, etc.
3. To reduce this danger to a minimum our
CITY authorities never showed an earnest will
nor the capacity requisite. They neglected
and neglect to this day their duty by not pre-
venting new distractions being placed Oh the
banks and thus endangering public safety.
Instead of strengthening the course as much us
possible they allow each lot to have different
line and my intention is To lead attention to
that shameful work in operation at the court
house
