BOOSTING IN TREES.

Vicksburg, April 1.-The crevasse in the Riggs levee, La., four miles from this point was 1,7o0 feet wide tonight and rapidly widening The water is rush. ing through with roar like Niagara and all day long refugees have been fleeing to this city with their stock and other property. The water was fifteen feet deep against the levee when it broke and men who were on the spot said t poured through in vast rushes and a whirlpool twenty feet wide. Many persons, in- cluding women. passed twelve hours in the midst of the furious water of the crevasse perchcd in 2 tree. The water reused them from their beds and they had cnly time to seek safety in it's bough when the mighty flood was upon thern

PRINCE HOHENLOHE OUTS And Demands Immediate Accept
 anCe of His Resignation, AGAINST A TARIFF WAR German Workmen Do Not Want a Tariff On Certain American Products War Yes

Copyrighted. 1897, by the Associated
 Press)
 Berlin, April 17.--Prince Hohenlohe, the imperial chancellor the correspondent of the Associated Press understands, in letter dated from Baden Baden, April 13, forwarded his resignation to Emperor William. A brisk exchange of tele- graphic messages followed. His majesty insisted upon the chancellor retaining office for the present, in spite of the cogent reasons cited in Prince Hohen- lohe's letter, urging that his resignation at this juncture would most seriously embarrass the emperor Prince Hohen- lohe again and again insisted that apart rom other serious reasons his health just now was worse. The prince suddenly went 10 Paris, where his wife had pre- ceaed hlm. AS reasons animating him to resign, Prince Hohenlohe urges his inability to carry out his solemn promise to submit to the reichstag and diet two bills, one placing the Prussian law re- gardlng political meetings upon more 1peral and more modern basis and the other reforming the procedure of military trials The princes inability to carry out his promise is said to be due to the extreme reactionary policy of Baron Von Derhorst, the Prussian minister for the interior At this moment it is impossi- ble to say how the crisis will end. but in view or the critical situation of Europe a change of chancellors would now be most unfortunate. The difficulty of in- cluding in the associations bill the means or giving greater freedom of political meeting and at the same time providing measures to suppress socialism, which the emperor desires, is believed to be the real cruX of the situation.
 The United States tariff bill is just now the favorite theme of the press
 The socialist Vorwaerts calls attention to Germany's bad faith in past tariff dealings with America and said:
 we pretended American products were frauds, denounced American pork and oxen as diseased and chased Amer ican insurance eompanies out of the country. Since 1895, while reducing our tarl1f, we have increased the duty on American products such as cotton seed oil and fats. German workmen do not want a tariff war with America"
 The naval authorities have just con- cluded experiments undertaken with a view of discovering the color best de- signed to render men of war inconspicu- ous and have decided to follow the Amer ican example and paint their vessels olive green.
 The emperor and imperial family will remove to the new palace at Potsdam at the beginning of May
 The emperor, on Tuesday, purchased a number of fine American etchings here. While viewing them his majesty re- marked:
 Great fellows, these Americans. They arc the coming great artists of the World.'

ANOTHER B|G LEvEE BREAK
HHUTIICII UIU ELVLL UTILHN lnundateS LoWlands on the Louis
 jana Side. UNFORTUNATES SEEK REFUGE By Perching Themselves in Coughs of Trees Until They Can Be Rescued-Sup-
 plies Sent From Memphis

Vicksburg, Miss, April 17.-Midnight.- An official report says that the crevasse at Biggs, four miles below Dela La. is neally a mile wide at ths hour, and the n-aring torrent is sprea ading over the foWlands of Madison parish with start ling rapddity. This is unquestionably the most destructive break lihat has yet oc- cured and the loss to propersy and stock will be enormous. Mad1 on, Tensas and Conoordfa parishss will be inunda ted. while the fine farms of Franklin and ClNt- ahoula parishes are in imminent danger. Fertile lands of these parishes have bene prepared for this years cpcp and in many ins tanceS cultivation is well under way FIFTEEN HUNDRED FEET WIDE.
 Memphis. April l7.-The break in the lsvee at Blggls, four miles below Delta La, which occurred at 10 o'clock last might, has widened rapidly, and tonight solid stream of water is passing through an opening more than 1,50O feet wide The roar of the wAIer as it rushes through the crevassss can be heard for miles, The town of Delta is n1W inun- dated, and the waters are spreading over the lowlandss and will soon cover many fine ph9p.atiOnS in Ma adiSon parish. All the conyiass at work on the levee when the craVassa came have been safsly puc on boaih a steamer, and so far no loss of life ic reported in tine vicinity of this last break. The outflow of water aat Biggs will do much to relieve the levee on the Mississippi sids. IL will also hasten the passage of ;he flood through the Missis- sipp delta, thus freeing that rich local ity. There are many weak spots on iahe Louisiana levee and another break may occur at any moment. irhroughout the flooded Mississippi delta today the situ- a.fon is more encouraging. The back waters are slowly falling pa ssing through the Ya2oo into 0he main channel north of VickSburg.
 At Helena the river has fallen nearly five feat since April 4. In the northern part of thfnt city, which has been under water more than three weeks, the water has fallen sufficiently to allow many peo- pie to move back into their houses. The water iuE.de the southern part of the oity IS fast disappearing by means of gigantic pumps which are kept running night and day
 At Rosedale, Brookdale F'riars Point, Greenyille and other delta points the river is falling.
 At Memphis a fall of one tenth of a foot is reported and gauge registered BIT feet at o'clock.
 At Cairo, Paducah, Cincinnati and Louisville the water continues to fall
 A large amount of supplies was for warded from Memphis today. The steam CT Harbin carried supplies and food up the St, Francis river to .ihe relief sta tions established there. Lieut. Cana vana went on this trip to superintend the distribution of supplies. The steamer Rowena Lee left this point with a cargo of supplies for stations between Mena- phis and AshpoIt.

 At the local dispatcher's office ignor- anee of any such accident was claimed They gave ou! that an engine had been deraaled a Anniston, and this caused the delay. Ut was said that the rear trucks of the tank had dropped to the cr-sg,ties
 From another source it was learned dlat the engine in charge of Engineer ITawes had split q switch near the An nisilon depot and become derailed. The fireman, a negro named Jordan, became frightened and jumped off. He hurt his leg and was put on the delayed passen- ger tnsain.o isi T. "s

The problem of how to discourage a rush of imports, particularly of we'd and toms law. is one that has caused the framers and advocates of the Dingley bill serious thought. It has been held that to make the new duties retroactive woud bn unconstitutional. but the an- nouncemont has been made that way has been found to make the new duties take effect before the new bill becomes law, no matter when that may be.

London, April 1S--The Greece Turkish situation is understood here to be sub- stantia.y a g fQ1lcws:
 War has not been officially declared between Turkey and Greece, but it has been declared officially to have broken out" The Turkish cabinet has decided to sever diplomatic relations with Greece, and has ordered Edhem f'asha, the com mander of the Turkish forces to take the offensive. IL is considered in London that war between Turkey and Greece has actually begun: that the Turkish decla- rations broken out is for the mere di- plmomatic purpose Of putting the onus of the affair on the kingdom of Greece
