ST. LOUIS, March 1O.-Reports from
the lower Mississippi river are to the
effect that the flood has become alarming
ly high all along the coast and that the
levees are breaking at various places,
There is great apprehension that a large
section Of country on both sides of the
river will be inundated. The latest report
is that the levee at S~apington Hoop, six
miles above Arkansas City, Ark broke
yesterday afternoon. The whole river
front from the crevasse to the Louisiana
line will be flooded. The whole Of the
Kansas basin of Louisiana, consisting four
or five parishes, will undoubtedly be GOV.
cred by water. The river at Arkansas
City is four inches above high water mark
and still rising. The present outlook is
that there will be at least a foot more wa
ter and that there will be a heavy loss Of
property.

Exciting Election in Maine.

BDDLEFoRT, Me, March lO-There
was great excitement here over the mu-
nicipal election today. One hundred
special police and twenty-five deputy
sherifs were on duty. The votes of men
whose naturalization papers were issued
by a municipal court in alleged violation
of the law were being challenged. The
special officers were working in sympathy
with the men. In one ward two deputy
sherlffs arrested a challenged voter, but a
special officer and the crowd liberated the
prisoner. In another ward Deputy Uni
ted States Marshal Stockpole drew a re.
volver when the crewd interfered with his
arrest OF a prisoner. Stockpole succeeded
in holding his man and also caused the
arrest of a special officer who interfered.
Warrants were issued for the arrest of
the deputy sheriff and ten minutes later
the local police captured Deputy Stock
pole and Deputy Sheriff Parker of North
Berwick and hustled them to the police
station, followed by a mob. The commo-
ton resulted in a complete victory for the
Democrats.

A Lively pay in wall Street.

New YoRK, March lO.-The most ex-
citing incident in Wall street for some
time occurred today when the big New
York and Philadelphia pool in Reading
sprung a corner op the shorts and COM
peiled them to ray , per cent for the use
of stock FOR one day. The pool, which
had its headquarters in Wormser's office,
is said to have been dissatisfied with the
results of its operations last week, and
after a disagreement today suddenly trans
ferred lis accounts from Wormser's to
Moore & Schley. Then they notified
Wormser to deliver all pool stock to Moore
x Schley. At the same time Moore l.
Schley and all other firms associated with
the pool called in all stock loaned by them
and as a result Wormsers, who were said
to need 80. 900 shares of stock to deliver
to the pool. in addition to being short as
much more on their own account, had to
clinch with the bear traders and the clique
that put out the short lines. None of
the interested parties would make a state.

WASHINGTON, March 10. -Among the
bills reported and placed on the calendar
was one for the construction Of postofice
buildings in towns and cities where the
postofhce receipts have for the last three
years exceeded $1,000 a year.
The bill fixing the times and places for
holding United States courts in the state
of Washington passed. Other public
building bills for the state of Washington
were reported and placed on the calendar
as follows: Tacoma, Seattle and $40
kane Falls, 800, 600; Walla Walla,
$50, 900.
Stanford offered a preamble and reso
luton instructing the committee on
finance to inquire what relief Tor the ex-
lsting agricultural depression may be fur.
nisIed by the United States, and %particu-
larly whether loans may not be made by
the government on mortgages on real
estate, independent of improvements, at
such rates and to such amounts as will
make the security to the government per
feet, the government to receive some
small rate of interest q to 2 per cent, and
to be able to call in the percentage on
loans from time to time at its discre
ton.
Plumb offered a resolution (asreed to-
calling on the secretary of the interior for
a statement as to the cause of withhold
ing patents for lands within the limits of
the Union Pacific land grants.
The bill appropriating $500. 0UO for a
public building at Salt Lake City, Utah,
was passed.
On motion of Sherman the bill provid-
ing for the inspection of meats for expor-
%tation, prohibiting the importation of
adulterated articles OF food or drink. and
authorizing the president to make a
proclamation in certain cases, was taken
from the calendar.
Henderson suggested that one OF the
great troubles in connection with the ex-
portation of meat products was the mu
nicipal requirements of foreign countries,
and he asked Sherman whether there was
anything in the bill that could remedy
that trouble.
Sherman said that for several years
past restrictions had been imposed in
France, Germany and Great Britain on
the importation of meat products. The
general complaint made in all those coun-
tries was that there was no meat inspec
ton laws in the United States such as
existed in EuroTean countries. 1t was
believed that the passage of the bill
would enable the proper authorities of the
United States to procure tie release of the
various restrictions, more or less, and
would thereby add at least a million to
American expectation OF beef products.
Bates remarked that several bills Kindred
to this one we're pending before the agri-
cultural committee; hat it was a matter
of vast importance; that the pending bill
was a substitute for the original bill and
had only been reported last week. and
more time should be allowed for considera-
ton of the measure. The discussion was
further participated in by Allison, Plumb.
Teller and Edmunds. When the hour of
2 o'clock arrived the bill was laid aside
without action and the educational bill
taken up.

KattItng Time in the Commons.


LONDON, March lO.-Tn the commons
tonight the debate on the Parnell report
was resumed, and Sexton protested against
placing on the record the commissions
perverted views of the evidence submitted
to them. In the course of his speech he
said he had a letter marked private"
from Lord Salisbury to Pigott.
Balfour declared that a viler calumny
was never uttered than the insinua,lon
that Lord Salisbury was connected with
the forgeries. He had The prime minis
ter's authority to challenge Sexton to pub
lIsh the letter and dared him to read it.
Sexton retorted that he was ready to
submit the letter and others with it to 4
committee Of inquiry.
Balfour, continuing, denied that the
government assisted the Times to procure
evidence in America. He accused the
Parnellites of Withholding from the com
mission every source of authentic eyi.

against the Parnellites, and he failed to
see why the government ought to apollo
gize. Parnell himself was largely re-
sponsiblY for the effect of the publica-
tions, because had the Parnellites ade-
quately denounced the Phoenix park
murders nobody would have d~iscredIted

attack on the Parnellites.

NEW YORK. March lO.-There
was little of the stock market today out
side OF dealings in Reading. The fear of
the consequences of the completion of the
deal, however, kept the general list in a
feverish and generally unsettled condition,
and the raid by the bears in the last hour,
instead of easing off the pressure upon
the shorts in Reading resulted in wiping
out most of the early gains in the rest of
the list. During the forenoon the corner
in Reading absorbed the entire attention
of the street, and out of 4 total of 379, 5Q3
shares of listed strocks traded in during
the day over 25S, 44O were in Reading.
The prices of Reading were from 3S4 to
40 when bidding for cash lots, and while
sales in the regular way were made as
high as All. cash sales run to 421, and
the difference at times was even larger
than that. Bidding tor cash continued
very urgent till the afternoon, but in the

way.
