THE RIVER RISING
And a Good Hsrbor for Pittsburg. by the
nauia IaInI,Il Llnrn

And Good Hsrbor for Pittsburg. by the
Davis Island Dam.
The finishing touches are being put on
The famous Davis Island Dam, says the
Pittsburg Dispatch. and in two day from
this morning, when the last wicket viii be
set up, it will be known definitely whether
the dam will be able to do all the work that
is claimed for it. ia depth of IL feet OF
water, at the low stage Of the river at the
present time, can be obtained in the Ohio at
Bellevue, and depth Of six feet can be
reached at the confluence Of the Mononga-
hela and Allegheny rivers IN this city, the
river men will be perfectly satisfied as 10 its
usefulness.
Assistant Engineer Martin, who has
charge Of the fifty men employed in putting
up the wickets expected to be able to have
everything in readiness for test last night,
out owing to the fact that the crab boat
which carries the machinery for raising the
wickets had been disabled, further work had
to be postponed until this morning. The
w.ckets which are used to hold back the
water are made of oak and are about ten
inches in thickness They are Is feet in
height and 3 feet 10 inches wide, 305 Of
them being used to span the river. The
bottom of the wickets rest on an iron sup
port called horse, which in turn is sup
ported by wooden sill which extends across
the bottom of the river and is imbedded in
the earth TO depth of Y feet.
Just six years ago on the 18th Of August,
heavy appropriation having been made by
the United States Government, work was
first begun on the dam. 1t has been con-
tinued steadily ever since exceptin extreme
Geld weather There has been considerable
opposition TO its erection. both on account
Of the expense and belief among some
river men that the dam will be more of an
obstruction of the river. II has already
cost $4,000 and there is a balance left
over of some $4,000, all of which will pro-
baby be used before the Improvements to
the dam contemplated will be finished. In
consequence of the feeling against the
building Of the dam, the engineers, contrac-
tors and those who have always argued that
the dam would be an assistance TO naviga-
ton, have a pardonable feeling Of satisfae.
ton that the long task is so near success
full completion.
II it is found to work all right it will be
of great value to Pittsburg coal men in
their shipment of coal from this city to
Cincinnati, Louisville and other points. As
the river now is they are compelled practi-
cally to do nothing in the way of coal ship
ping from the early part of July to the last
of October or November, about which time
there is generally water enough to allow the
boats to leave the landing at the wharf I'M
less as sometimes happens a number of
heavy rains raise the river sufficiently to al
low couple of days for any boats that are
ready to leave the docks. The Allegheny
and Monongahela rose six inches near the
Point yesterday as a result Of the wicket
raising.

Mr.. Blaine's letter, explaining why he
ordered the dismissal of his libel suit
against the indianapolis Sentinel, is both
cunning and weak. It will be COM
mended by bis partisans. for Mr.. Blaine
knows how to frame an eloquent appeal
to the sympathies of those who admire
him. But it is a vicious thing for him
to say that a jury cannot be found in the
State OF Indiana that would do him
justice. The people of the United States
are not willing to believe that Indiana
citizenship is no longer decent or respect
able on the hippant say-so Of Mr.. Blaine.
Twelve men can readily be picked up in
Indianapolis of as good character as, and
far less partisan than, the defeated can
didats for the Presidency. Justice may
stisi be had in Indiana though Demo.
cratic in the recent election. Whatever
Mr.. Blaine may say to the contrary is
mere gail.
