ST. LOUIS. Nov, 10 "A complete rev.
olution OF, the government system of
river improvement IL in prospect. Plans
to. that end have already been made,
and some experimental work accom-.
plished. which promises mutual benefit
to st. Louis and the entire country.
The subject of dredging the Missis-
sippi river along its whole nayigable
length is now receiving the earnest
consideration of the members of the
Mississippi river commission, the MEM
bers of which are at present on an in
spection tour OF the big stream from
this city to the gulf. Dredging the
bars which at this season constitute o
Sore Hinhrance to Navigation,
is a matter of deep concern 20 all the
commercial interests of the central tier
of states, and the announcement that
plans are being perfected whereby a
regular AMI continuous system of keep
ing the Mississippi free FROM these OBJ
stacles will be received with much sat
isfaction by thousands Of people who
are vitality interested in uninterrupted
navigation at all seasons.
The commissions committee on
dredges and dredging, composed Of
Colonel Henry Fladd Of this city, and
Major B. III. Harrod Of New Orleans.
some time ago authorized and caused
to be constructed . dredgesfor expert
mental purposes, and for the Incidental
Improvement of the channel.
72 Two Experiments
Thus fur but two experiments of any
consequence hare been made. The first
was at Cherokee bar, below Cairo.
where q new channel was made, af-
fording seven feet Of navigable water,
where only four and one-third feet had
existed before the work began. The
second trial of the machines capacity
was made at DEVILS island, Just above
Cape Girardeau, with the same excel
lent result, although the conditions ex-
listing at the latter place were pretty
bad.
1t may be said, however, that this in
cidental work is no measure of the
dredge's capacity if il were used con-
~tinuously for the sole purpose of i'm
proving navigation.
Prospects Are Excellent.
The dredge now used Is the first ever
constructed here, although the amie
machine with some notifications has
long been used upon the rivers Of Ger
many with remarkable success. 1t is
said at the Office of the commission that
the outlook for the establishment Of q
permanent dredging force with all
needed apparatus was excellent; and
that river men could reasonably look
forward TO a clear channel from Sc.
Louis to the gulf at all seasons, within
q period of two years.
