The Missouri River is Rising
Rapidly Again at St. Joseph.
There Is Much Suffering Among Poor Families
and Situation Is Serious In Some Sections.

Memphis, April THE feature of the
food condition in the Mississippi delta
Is the gradual spread OF water over an
area that hitherto was never overfiowed
The upper crevasse in Tunica county
Is 1000 feet wide, and so great is the out
pour that the water from below til,
break is being drawn up and pushed
over the fertile valley through the cre-
vase. All Of the country east, to thu
main line OF the Yazoo and Missis-
sippi Valley road is Hooded. and in many
places the water has gone over the
tracks, nlling the fazoo river. The
fall in the main channel at Helena
Greenville. Vicksburg and Arkansa,
City is due TO the filling up Of the delta
and the lower White river country. /
the lower levees Of Louisiana and
southeastern Arkansas should hold, the
emptying Of the delta and St. Fran
cis basin would be slow. If they break
and the river continues to fall at Cairo
the upper st. Francis basin and the delta
will be clear Of water by May s. If this
should prove true, there will be no diff
Guilty in growing cotton. But breaks in
Louisiana and southeastern Arkansas
will hold water in that territory until the
middle OF May, after the usual time for
I'anting cotton In that territory.
The river at Memphis is stationary.
At st. Joseph. Mo-, the Missouri river
Is rising rapidly again. The river is now
10 feet above low water mark, and in
dications are that il will continue to
rise. Superintendent Holly Of the Kan
sas City, st. Joe and Council Bluffs
railroad, with a large force OF men, is
stationed at points along the river.
where the Burlington tracks along the
river banks are. watching and hoping to
prevent a repetition Of the flood of sew
eral years ago. when hundreds of yards
OF track went into the river.
Little change is indicated at ST. Louis
for two or three days, with a tendency
toward slight rise. The Missouri will
rise steadily. The Mississippi, north
from Hannibal, Mo-, will rise slowly,
and fall slightly to the south.
The Mississippi shows slight rise from
Vicksburg south, except stationary at
New Orleans. The levees continue in
tact in all sections, and all interests
continue the greatest vigilance to keep
them up. The engineers have barges
OF lumber and sacks at numerous points
on both sides of the river for re-
pair of weak spots, should any appear.
The situation at Fargo, n. D., is ap-
palling. There is much suffering among
poor families, who have been practi-
Cally destitute all winter and this last
blow is most serious.
