Slight fall expected by midnight The
water had risen three-tenths of an inch
since Saturday night. Situation remains
unchanged Trains are still delayed, the
most serious stoppage being on the Bur-
lington system between Leavenworth
and Atchison, its trains being from three
10 six hours late. Farmers think the
dyke at the bridge above here is repson-
sible for their lands being inundated and
there is some talk of destroying it.
KANSAS CITY STATIONARY.

strong south wind yesterday drove the
water in the Missouri over the swamp

Observer Connor's predictions for anoth-
er "a hours. The gauge this morning
read 22.1, which is but slight rise over
Saturdays mark. Because of the rise
noted in Harlem, more or less property

Reports As to Destitution aud Crop Hros-
poets From Down the River.

poets From Down the River.
Washington. April 1s.-The war depart
ment officials are regarding the outlook
in the lower Mississippi valley with the
greatest anxiety. fearing that the levee
system there Will prove unable 10 with
stand the terrible strain. A telegram
came to Secretary Alger this morning
from the officer he has watching at New
Orleans, as follows:
According to the latest reports the
levees are intact hence to Red river
Landing, but the river continues 10 rise
slowly. Reports Of restitution below the
organized levee districts on the left
hank above Port ST. Phillip have reach
ed me. If desired that 1 personally in
v5stigate and report, il is suggested that
1 be Instructed TO visit that section. 1t
will take two days by the regular boat"
Captain Martin, of the quartermaster
generals department., mas just returned
10 Washington. and is preparing his re-
port 10 the secretary of war. He was
sent on. &c inspect the conditions in that
section of the country along the ms
sissippi river from Vicksburg 10 Green
vile, and fis report gives some start
ling figures as 10 the extent Of the dsvas-
tation worked by the waters. He says
that there was under water last Wednes-
day sup of land on the east bank of
the river with Vicksburg az It's apex,
with, a base of twenty miles and sixty
miles wide. containing 1850 square miles.
This is all cotton country. 1t is gener-
ally owned in large plantations. the ow-
ners of which divide il into small parcels
and allow negroes to work IL on shares.
In 1890 there was produced in this strip
$4,000 bales of cotton. The population
is estimated al from 10000 to 100000,
about one-siXth of the people being
whites. Captain Martin says that not
more than 20 per cent Of this country is
above water Most of the negroes have
stuck by their cabins. having anywhere
from one TO two weeks supplies by
them However, when the officer left
they were beginning TO swarm into the
towns. He estimated that about Co.
900 persons in this district are in need
of aid from some quarter. The people
themselves are doing all in their power
and Captain Martin cited instances of
great l.berality on the part ow the whites.
AS long as there Is promise of a good
cotton crop to be made the plantation
owners may generally be relied upon 10
feed their negro workers, but with the
disappearance of that chance will come
inability on their part to respond TO fur
ther demands because Of the loss of their
credit with the factors and bankers.
Captain Martin thought that the chances
of making crop this year. though gen.
orally as gloomy at Vicksburg. really
were not so bad and had certainly been
very much improved by the breaking of
the levee at Biggs delta. Though this
was a terrible misfortune to the jewellers
below, the crevasse probably would low
er the waters in the upper reaches of
the river very speedily.

DECLINES TO SHOULDER 1T
Greece Asserts That Turkey is Blamable
as the Aggressor-

! Athens, April I'm sohOuZCS, TIC
Greek minister Of foreign affairs, has
sent a reply 10 the note which ASSN Bey,
/ the retiring Turkish minister, handed 10
him announcing that in consequence OIL
the aggressive attitude Of Greece diplo-
matte relations between the King OF the
Hellenes, the Sultan Of Turkey and their
respective governments were broken on.
NJ. Skouzes in his reply says:
wishing to make Greece responsible
for the rupture of diplomatic relations,
the imperial government appears to lose
sight of the fact that Greece, far from
proceeding 10 acts of hostility against
Turkey, has had 10 suffer during the last
few days from repeated acts Of aggres-
sion upon the part Of the Turkish army
at several points on the frontier. Owing
TO the conflict at Prophet Elias, or
March %, the royal government drew
the attention of the imperial government
to the attitude of the Turkish troops, but,
instead Of yielding TO the spirit of moder-
alton debating this step. the imperial gov
eminent appeared disposed to preciptate
everts. Thus, On Friday, the Turkish
army, without provocation, attempted 10
obtain possession of Analihis, which was
mutually agreed TO be neutral territory.
1t was all owing to the persistence OF the
Greeks that this attempt TO violate neu-
trail territory failed.

in face of these facts, showing there
Is little foundation for the assertion Of the
