THE MISS SlPPl.

Report ofthe Secretary Of War on the Inn
provements Made During the Last Half
Of the Year on the Mississippi.
WASHINGTON, Dec 1O.-The Secretary of
War yesterday transmitted to the House
Of Representatives the report of the OPP
creations of the Mississippi River Commits
sion from July l, 1856, to November 30,
1886, with financial statements relating to
the appropriations.
No work was done in the first district
Cairo to foot Of Island No. 1000 miles)
except repairs Of plant. The works al
ready constructed remain unchanged, and
q good navigable channel is maintained.
Examinations made at low water disclose
the fact that the revetments at Ashport
and Craighead Point, which were sup
posed to have been carried away, are still
in place entire.
In the second district foot Of Island
No. 40 to mouth Of White river-1SO miles)
in addition to repair Of plant, the work
done has been in pursuance Of an approved
project for completing the work in the
river at Memphis" including the con-
structing of a mattress revetment in front
of the city levee, beginning at the lower
end and extending up stream as far as the
appropriation will admit. Four hundred
feet was completed at the end Of October.
In the third district (mouth of White
river to Warrenton, Miss.-22O miles),
operations have been limited to repair Of
plant and preparations for work at Delta
Point.
The principal work done in the fourth
district (Warrenton to head Of the passes
4S4 miles,, was upon the channel Of Red
river between the Mississippi and the head
of the Atchafalaya-
Altogether the operations were confined
almost wholly to the preservation and re-
pair of the plant. The amount available
for the Commission November 1 last was
2,00O,11S.

Committeeman ut Work

WASHINGTON, Dec. 6-The sub-commit-
tee of the House committee An appropria-
tons having in charge the Sundry Civil
bill, has completed the measure. It ap-
propriates SIG, COS, $40, which is s12, 523,OO9
less than the estimates, S3,652, GOO less than
the appropriation for the current year, and
$2,045,0 600 less than the appropriations
made by the bill as reported to the House
at the last session.
Fourteen members Of the committee
were present at this mornings meeting.
Another meeting will be held this after
noon, and further progress made in the
preparation of the Sundry-Civ bill.
1t is likely that the Government printing
office will be without an appropriation for
some time yet, although Public Printer
Benedict has appeared before the COM
mittee on appropriations and urged action
on an emergency appropriation. Thecelay
is owing to the Secretary Of the Treasury
not having transmitted his estimates on
the subject to the committee.
