BREAKS IN THE LEVEE
CreVaSSeS on the MiSSiSSippi
Causing the River to Re-
Cede at Memphis.
Water Rushing Into Arkansas
and Suffering There Is
Intensified.
Northwestern Situation Seri-
Gus, but Conditions Are
Improving.

MEMPHIS, March 22.-For the first
time in many weeks the Mississippi
river is reported falling at Memphis,
the gauge reading 81 feet. Several
breaks in the levees are known to have
occurred between Osceola, Ark, and
Memphis, and the fall of the river here
is attributed to these cTevasses. The
break at Sans Souci is widening, and
the mad rush of the waters through
Three additional breaks, all near Sans
Souci, are reported, and the suffering
of the people in Eastern Arkansas will
surely be greatly intensified.
The railroad situation at Memphis is
somewhat better. The Yazoo and Mis-
sissippi Valley have sent its trains to
New Orleans, the tracks between Mem
phis and Lakeview having been raised
above the water level The Illinois
Central south and the Kansas City,
Memphis and Birmingham east are
running trains on time.
Over in Arkansas the town of Marion
is in bad condition All the houses
are suIIoundeu ny water, ana Ine
whole face of the earth is submerged
except here and there a small Indian
mound remains above water. There
are many breaks in the levee, or at
least many places where the water is
running over the levee like a millrace
The water is also pouring over the
Kansas City railway at three places in
the town of Marion, and possibly at
more At these places the current is
exceedingly rapid, and the waves roll
and dash eight and ten feet high

Replied to a Greek Protest.

ATHENS, March 22.-In reply to the
protest of the Greek government
against the sinking of the Greek vessel
by an Austrian gunboat off the coast of
Crete, the Austrian charge d'atfaires,
has replied that the firing upon the ves-
sci referred to was provoked by an in-
surgent attack upon the gunboat.
Thereupon the Greek government con-
sented to await the result of the in.
quiries, which are being made into the
affair.

FOREST RESERVE ORDER.
Formal Applj ntions to Have 1t Set Aside
Under Amusement.

Under Advisement.
WASHINGTON, March 22.-A formal
application for resembling part of Presi.
dent Cleveland's forestry order of Feb.
%, last has been filed at the interior
department by Senator Wilson OF
Washington, supported by Representa-.
tive Jones of the same state. 1t gives
reasons why the signers believe the
reservations made i'll Washington are
prejudicial to pubic interests, but asks
for immediate restoration of only one
of the reserves, the Washington forest
reserve, the largest in the state and
embracing 3,294,574 acres. All the
others i'll Washington, however, are
also pointed out as Objectionable ThN
application contends that many mIII-
ions of scores of the best lands are thus
reserved from settlement and the terms
of the proclamation controlling miners
are such that the latter will have to be
abandoned. The reservation is termed
unnecessary as the rainfall is lSd
inches year over some of the tracts
reserved. In the largest reserve all
the waters flowing into the Pacific

proclamation, the application and other
documents and a resume of newspaper
comments clipped for reference. The
secretary has taken the question under
advisement.
