IS STEADILY RISING.
The Mississippi Likely to Reach
: the High Water Mark OF 'SS.

the High Water Mark of 'SS.
At IL o'clock last night the river meas
ured twelve feet at the Jackson street
dock line, and was steadily rising. Ii it
rises another foot, as now seems very
probable. the West side flats will be in
danger. and it will be necessary for
many of the residents to vacate their
homes. Old river men now express the
opinion that the city is going to eX-
perience spell of high water, and that
some damage will be done before the
waters abate. The houses on the upper
flats are also in imminent danger, and
most of the occupants have prepared to
leave. MeMiilan's packing house will
probably be abandoned today if the river
rises any further. The boundaries on
the West side leyee will also be OBJ
iiged to stop operations. and great
deal of damage will be Oecasioned. The
floods in the Minnesota river are
mostly responsible for the rise here. and
il there is any more rainfall the outlook
is indeed gloomy, not only to the pe0-
pie whose homes are flooded, but for
the many manufacturers located on the
river bank. The local weather bureau
does not anticipate that the river will
GO higher than the high water mark of
1888. but, Notwithstanding. it may
cause a great deal of suffering and
misery among the poor people whose
homes are ruined by the flood.

BY ANY TRAIN
MayOr-Elect Wright Is Expected
to Return From the East.

to Return From the East.
The mayor-elect is expected homo
from his Eastern trip any day, or on
any train, now. He has been inspect
ng the administrative policies of the
great metropolises f-the nation. and it
is therefore likely that he will now be
ready to give some outline of what he
proposes to do when he takes his seat.
The Republican councilmen-slect will
hail his return with Joy, for they have
been aching to go into joint caucus to
decide finally upon the recipients of
council favors. True, they have al
ready decided upon the organization of
the new council, but should the course
proposed by the councilmen fail to
meet with the approval Of the mayor a
change of base may enSue. The mayors
wishes, especially concerning who shall
be the acting mayor, will doubtless be
especially respected.
When the assembly had its caucus
and decided upon president, vice pres
ident and also president of the joint
body, it was agreed that another caucus
should be held just as soon as the mayor
returned from his tour. 1t was agreed,
moreover, that the nominations of the
caucus should be submitted to Col.
Wright for his approval.
