audacious robbery ever known in these

THE BRIDGE BILL.

The bridge bill passed the Senate yes.
terday but with proviso that will 10 in
crease the cost as to prohibit any railroad
company or companies from engaging In
its construction. This proviso makes II
obligatory upon the company building TO
provide footway for passengers and road
way for vehicles. AS there is nothing TO
justify any such proyiso, nothing on the
other side OF the river or on this that
would justify il. neither trade nor traffic,
and on the Arkansas side nothing like
population, this proyiso can only be con-
strued into an attempt TO overweight the
bill with conditions and kill il. To say that
this Is an outrage isto express very mildly
thesensco OF indignation il arouses The peo-
pie Of Memphis who are most concerned
do not want foot or roadway bridge, they
want a railroad bridge, bridge that will
presently and prospectiyely satisfy NIL the
demands OF great and increasing traffic.
There is nothing In the way Of trade OF
traffic on the Arkansas side OF the river
that the railroads are not now moro than
equal TO, and are likely TO be for n long
time to come. Between West Memphis
and Cawley's ridge, forty miles away,
there is great swamp with here and there
n short ridge on which a few houses are
porchcd above high water, and where a
few plantations may be found that barely
escape overflow. These for their needs
look TO the steamboats, In the ST. Francis,
the White and the Mississippi and 10 the
railroads. They cannot with any degree Of
pcrmanence count on the dirt roads.
These are most Of tho time impossible cx-
cept to persons on horseback, and TO these
are very uncomfortable. To suggest d
bridge for the traffic OF a country like
this sparscly settled, tools ridiculous,
is absurd on lis face. No capitalist with
brains enough 10 know dollar from O
dime would invest In such an enterprise,
because the roadway and iootway part Of

THE APPEAL reporter met Mr.. John 5.
Toof, the merchant, yesterday, and asked
him what he thought Of the situation. Mr..
Tool had just received the telegram from
Gen. Nettleton, which is given elsewhere.
Said Mr.. Toof:
81 think that meeting Of the Cotton
and Merchants exchanges and OF all bust
ness men should be called at once 10 see II
something cannot be done to save the
bridge. The prospect now, in view
OF Gen. Nettletons statement, is
gloomy enough. cannot under
stand why anybody in Memphis
should insist upon loading up the Kansas
City road with such burdens as the Senate
amendments contemplate, and | am sure
that no one who gives this matter sober
thought does so. can see in the amend
ments only the fine Italian hand OF Mr.
Van Benthuysen. Another delegation
should be sent to Washington to represen,
the sentiments OF the Memphis people

GOOD MONEY WASHED AWAY.
The Hindman's Ferry Levee Melting
Away Before tho Flood.

II was reported yesterday that the levee
road, known ms the Hindman's ferry, which
crosses the Wolf river bottom, had broken
in several places, and that the water was
fast making great gaps In the costly piece
Of work. This leyee was constructed at
immense expense 10 the tax-pay-
en OF the county, and for IL
TO be swept away by the unman-
agcablc overflow IL too bad. Those who
knew well at the time the dangers which
would every spring bcsct such n piece OF
work, strongly opposed II, and urged that
Il was simply throwing 10 many thousand
dollars Of the peoples money into the
water, but their opposition amounted 10
