WASHINGTON, Feb. 15.-After hear
ing from engineer officers of the gov
ernment and delegations appointed to
lay the matter before congress, the

cided to recommend the adoption of a
most liberal policy for the improve
ment of the great internal water way

bill will be reported to the senate max
ing an appropriation of $15, 900, 600 for
the improvement of the Mississippi

expended under the direction of
the secretary OF war, in accord
ance with such plans OF the Missis-
