The water has been exceedingly low
in the Fourth pool, but since Maj.
Powell had some of the upper pools
drained foot there has been an i'm
proyement in navigation ON the low
er pools. Some of the lower river

that there will not be rise in the
rivers, of any consequence, until
there is fall of snow.
