The Mississippi's Rapid rise.

DUBUQUE, Ia, May s.-The river flood is
steadily increasing, the rise in the past
twenty-four hours being another twelve
inches. The stage at 9 o'clock tonight is 21
feet. 1 inch, which is higher by ten inches
than three weeks ago. Reports from up the
river are of rise all along River men here
say the rise will be at least foot more, and
in all probability, will go over the high water
mark of 1850, which was % feet, s inches.
The volume of water coming down
is beyond estimate. All the tributaries
are pouring floods into the river-the
Black, the Chippewa, the Wisconsin, the
Platte and the Turkey, besides what comes
from above st. Paul. Much damage is being
done. The water now covers the sidewalk
on the levee, and will soon go over the lower
floors of stores there, from which merchandise
is being taken to safe places. Saw mills are
stopped, and q few inches more will shut
down the iron foundries, plow works, fur
niture factories and other industries. The
Burlington yards are virtually on an island.
The lower floors of flats in the upper part of
the city are covered and many are rendered
homeless. The demage cannot well be esti-

Mr.. McAdoo OF New Jersey said he spoke
as democrat. He contended the best way
in which the surplus could be reduced was
by the abolition of the internal revenue
system. Revenue ought TO be limited in
amount TO the needs of the government econi-
mically administered. %
MIR. Morrow of California argued that no
better course could be pprsued with reference
TO the surplus than TO apply it to the purchase
OF United States bonds. He was in favor OF
an economical administration of the affairs of
the government. No extravagant expendi-
lures should be fnduiged in, but congress
should comply with theiproyision of the con-
stitution granting II the power to provide for
the common defense ana general welfare.
The committee then rose and the house
took a recess until s p. M, the evening
session to be for debate upon the tariff bill
AT the evening session Mr.. Stone of Mis-
souri, laid down the propositions that any ar
ticle, on which tariff duty was levied, was
necessarily increased in cost TO the extent OF
the duty; that high tariff by an accumulation
OF surplus contracted circulation; that
American manufactures had nothing to fear
from foreign competition on equal terms;
that the tariff has nothing to do with MAN.
tanning a high rate of wages; that the pro-
tective system tended to concentrate wealth
in few hands, and that the increase of
national wealth during the last thirty years
was in no possible sense due to protection.
MIR. Chapman of Michigan, denied that the
Mills bill was free trade bill. He did not
pledge himself in advance to vote for it, as
he had some amendments to propose, but
those amendments he would offer in per-
feet good faith because he believed the bill
to be an honest endeavor to benefit the peo-
pie.
MIR. Martin of Texas contrasted the re-
spective status of the two sides of the house
on the tariff question, declaring that the
democrats were boldly struggling for the In
terests of the country, while the republicans,
standing on the tariff laws of 1861 and 1888,
resisted all efforts for tariff revision. In
conclusion he said: 1--WE have a campaign
before us that is to be conducted by the DEM
ocratic party. We are conducting the cam
paign on reduction of taxes. They are
fighting the reduction. We will have hoisted
at the mast head the name of glorious Cleve-
land, and in fighting the battle of the people
we will go to Kansas, Iowa and Michigan,
and all other western states, and carry them
against protection. We will carry this great
nation for Grover Cleveland, president of the
United States.''
The house then adj ourned.
