Somewhat ENCOURAGING.

Memphis, April 2O-The river at
Vicksburg. Helena, Natchez and all
along from st. Joseph, La, to Bayou
Sara, La, is reported either stationary
or falling tonight. This condition is the
result of the vast amount of water
passing through the crevasses at Biggs
and Reds levees, above Natchez, and at
Hancock's, below.
The levee in the Immediate vicinity
of Natchez continues TO hold under
the great strain, but their holding is
now of little interest TO the planters
in Concordia, .Tensas and Madison par
ishes, as the water, backed up from
the breaks above and below, will soon
flood the rich lands of these counties
and the result will be almost as dis
astrous as if other breaks should oc-
cur. The Red and Tensas rivers are
now swelling and almost running over
their banks and by tomorrow they will
begin spreading over a section of 30
miles to the interior.
Work continues on the leveeS with
out abatement and everything posi-
bic is being done TO hold the levee sys-
tenn intact. Refugees continue to flock
into the principal towns of the Mis-
sissippi delta and the relief committees
are taxed to their utmost to provide
for the wants of the destitute. At
Memphis the river continues to fall.
Reports from Greenville. Rosedale and
Cairo state that an encouraging de-
cline is noted

One clerk would pass him along to an

of each run he would be passed along
again. In an average. he would make
the rounds of the whole mail system

TURKS TRIUMPHANT.
Charge Against the Greeks in the
Name OF God.

Summit of the Milouna Pass. Monday
morning, April 19-(Copyrighted, 1897, by
the associated Press. 1.-The Turkish
victory OF yesterday in the Milouna
pass was complete. The Greeks retired
TO the plain of Thessaly, leaving a
guard or the hill, from which they
were driven later by four battalions of
Turkish infantry.
The Turks pulled up to the top of the
hill three mountain batteries singing,
laughing and weeping with joy like
children. One battery opened fire upon
the Greeks, who were retreating on the
plain Of Traves, and did terrible exc
cution. The correspondent of the As
ISOLATED Press saw some of the Turk
ish shells burst in the middle of a
serried battalion of Greeks, with the
result that whole groups were killed or
wounded.
Yesterday evening seven new Turkish
battalions and several mounted bat
teries of artillery left for the front and
a dawn the guns were trained on the
Greek block house on the plain below.
Junes Effendi, the Turkish COM
mander, and his men had been &c louws
without food or drink. When they were
preparing TO capture the Greek block
house Junes addressed his soldiers, say
ing:
"All those who love GOD must adj
vance to the assault"
This was enough. Every man, with
loud exultant shouts, dashed forward
in the direction of the block house.
Even the muleteers, who were bringing
UP the reserve ammunition, Joined in
the assault on the block house, which
was held bv the Greeks with magnifi-
cent courage. The Turks. with slendid
dash. charged with the bayonet and
eventually leaped over the ramparts
with shouts of triumph.
The Greeks waited their approach I'M
Ill the Turks We're within so yards be-
fore withdrawing. In this assault the
Turks had only 16 men killed and II
wounded Everywhere was to be seen
the effect of the Turkish artillery, their
terrible shells bursting just at the cal
culated moment The Greeks. on the
other hand, appeared to be lacking in
artillery.
The Greeks attempted to reply to the
Turkish artillery, but were forced to
retire. The correspondent saw num-
berless Greek bodies stripped of their
uniforms by the Greeks, leaving only
their shirts and drawers on.
Most of the dead, however, were car
ried off by the Turks. who raised the
corpses of the Greeks reverently and
placed them beneath the shade of
trees.
The Turkish losses in the fighting of
Yesterday were only so killed and $50
wounded
