THE CRISIS NEAR
SUPREME TEST IN THE FLOOD SIT.
C., UATION AT HAND.
Levees Below vicIsburg I'm Great
Danger From the Beating of the
Swift Current Against Them
Negroes Drowned MT Davis Island
The Situation I'm the Northwest.

Memphis, April 10. - Advices from
Natclez and other points below vicks-
burg indicate that the supreme test in
the flood situation is at hand. The
swift current, which is rising steadily.
Is beating against the levees with such
force as 10 cause the g.nvest appre-
hension at many places. At Natchez
the river is near the top of the levee
ard everything possible is being done
to fight Dack the water. All kinds of
rumors have been current to-day re-
garding wholesale loss Of life on Davis
island, but dilligent Geographic in
quiry fails to confirm the story. 1t is
known that three negroes were
drowned on the island, but outside of
these fatalities no further loss of life
is known to have occurred At Vicks-
burg the river is rising at the rate of
four tenths Of a foot daily. The vol
ume of water pouring out Of the va
zoo into the Mississippi at a point
twelve miles north of Vicksburg will
continue for sew eral days. The levees
between Bedford's store, four miles
south Of Delta, La, to Buckport, six
miles above, are in precarious con-
dition. and every n an and boy avail
able is at work strengthening the en-
bankments. At some points in this
stretch the water is washing over and
the greatest alarm is felt. A more
cheerful feeling exists in the delta at
present. At Greenville the backwater
from Stops Landing crevasse. which
has been rising in the flooded part of
the town during he last three days, is
stationary and will begin to fall to-
morrow. Rosedale, Friar's Point, Hell
ena and other places report an encour-
aging Improvement in the situation.
The river declined L of a foot at
Greenville to-day, and the fall of 2 of
foot reported at Cairo gives renewed
hope that the vast amount of water
will recede in time to make good
crop. At Memphis the river is station
airy. Capt. Mccoy, of the steamer
Bluff, arrived in port from St. Louis
and brings very encouraging account
of the improve. nent in the condition Of
the overhowed territory above Mem
phis. In order to make the trip down
the river in daylight he remained over
at Tiptcnyille all night. He says that
the waters have :'ece ded sufficiently to
allow steamboats, to land at all places.
There is a marked improvement and
the outlook on the upper river is cheer
full.
