MILLIONS FOR PENSIONS.
Congress to Be Asked for 81 so, 100000
for the Coming Year.

Congress to Be Asked for 81 1000, 900
for the Coming Year.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 2l.-More than the
usual interest attaches to the forthcom-
ing annual report of the commissioner
of pensions. The statement has been
made that the amount required for pen
sions for the next fiscal year will nearly
reach the enormous sum of 5000 ,000, 900.
The work of compiling the figures, how
ever, is sufficiently advanced to show that
this estimate ia in excess of the actual
requirements. 1t is now thought con-
gress will be asked to make an appropri-
alton of about $3.50 10000 for the com
ing fiscal year, about $lS.000,000 of
which is in anticipation of an increase
of that amount over the actual expendi-
lures Of last year. 1t is the judgment of
General Raum that while this amount is
likely to be increased the next year or
two yet, he feels confident that the
maximum limit is nearly reached.

ST. LOUIS, No., May 20.--At 9 p. NJ. tho
downward tendency of the river was
stopped by the influx of the first of the
water which fell all over the Mississippi
and Missouri valleys on Wednesday. The
gauge then registered $3.50 feet, q
fall of four -tenths of foot in
twenty-four hours. According to
the weather bureau the river will
commence rising in toe morning. A three
foot rise is coming down both rivers and it
is only q matter of conjecture ss to the
height the river here will 60. Itis admitted
that rise of at least six inches may be ex-
pected within two days. while the water
may 60 to thirty seven feet before it goes
down. Light rains are falling all over the
valley tonight.
