RIVER NEWS.
Daily Chronicle of tho Movements OF the
Boats and Boarmen.

Daily Chronicle OF the Movements OF the
Boats and fsoarmen.
The stage of the river last evening
was twenty-one inches and rising. The
indications are that the extent of the
present swell may be in the neighbor-
hood of three feet Three feet is fair
navigable stage. but as the river is fall
ing at Pittsburg and other points above
it will not last long enough to ensure
any extended traffic should the packets
be cut loose. What is needed now is
another rain like that of the beginning
of the week, for every inch of its fall
would be effective, as the pools and bars
are fairly well soaked as as to throw it
directly to the stream. 1t may be said
with certainty that navigation will not
be resumed until more rain is had, and
it is the opinion of the rivermen that
it will not be long forthcoming.
The rain in the basins of the Monon-
gahela and Allegheny rivers during the
past forty-eight hours had no mater
ial effect on the water stages. Major
Charles F. Powell, United States en-
gineer in charge OF the Allegheny and
Monongahela rivers, said that the dry
ground absorbed so much of the rain
that the rivers were not benefited The
stage was so low in the middle pools
of the Monongahela that water had to
be drawn from pool No. to help out
navigation in pools Nos. 4, and 6.
Major Powell's report of government
work done during October will show
over 100 snags removed and much gen.
eral improvement in the channel and
on the dams of the rivers under his
charge.

NOTHING TO CROW ABOUT

The 1ntelligencer puts its pet coon
up over the returns on the river front
against John H. Campbell. A less sem
sitive or more manly paper would hes
itate to make a great adoo over a ma
jority on the river front of about one
hundred over Campbell, when the ma
jority against Campbell's party ON
that river front last year was 929, a
clear loss of over 500. Mr. Campbell
has cause to feel proud over his run,
and but for the large sums of money
put into this county, and the sending
to this county of host of State Off
Gals to work against him. he would
certainly have been elected. The In
telligencer, as the enemy of organized
labor, may feel elated over the defeat
of this leading labor man, but had bet
ter smother its eXultation because 9TH
er elections are still ahead, and in this
county, if it will compare the figures
we give elsewhere, there is only one
more river to cross before the silver
party is in control. Tribune
