Ii is no doubt true that the failure Of
the Eads deep water scheme at Calves
ton has had a depressing effect upon the
future prospects Of that city, and by
reason of the further fact that a good
harbor cannot be obtained there for
anything less than millions. This is I'M
fortunate for Galveston individually,
but ii possibly will be of advantage to
other points that are seeking recogni-
tlon before the River and lIarbor Com
mittee. Aransas Pass, with Galveston
an anxious claimant, could not expect
TO receive much recognition; but with
the prestige of the success Of what work
has been done by the Government,
coupled with the fact that Arkansas can
be made u good and n safe harbor, will
make the securing OF necessary appro-
priation much easier than If Galveston
was on hand and working to secure n
big slice. A good harbor between the
Sabine and the Rio Grande ought TO be
obtained, and no point is more practical
