MISSISSIPPI FLOODS.
Relief to Be Had Only From Properly
Constructed Levees.

The Senate committee on commerce yes
terday agreed to the report of the subcom-
mittee appointed under the resolution of
March. 1897. to investigate and report upon
the floods in the Mississippi river and their
causes and prevention. The subcommittee
consisting of Senators Nelson Elkins, Vest
Mcbride, Galinger Berry and Caffrey has
visited many points on the Mississippi and
its tributaries, taking testimony at various
points and altogether giving the subject
very careful attention. The report was
prepared and submitted by Senator Nelson
chairman of the subcommittee
The committee concludes that no substan-
tial relief from the floods can be obtained
by means of outlets, hence, the conclusion
that only through properly constructed
leyeeS can the proper relief be secured.
The committee furnishes an estimate of
the cost of completing the levee system
from the head of St. Francis basin TO the
head of the passes, putting the figure at
from eighteen to twenty million dollars
and the time necessary at from four to
five years. The opinion is expressed that
with this expenditure levees sufficiently
high AID strong to afford complete protec-
ton could be assured
The report was amended at the meeting
Only in one or two particulars and these
amendments were in the nature of adGi-
tions. One of these additions relates to
reservoirs in st. Francis basin, in which the
committee expresses the opinion thatthe eX
pense of constructing and maintaining such
a system would be enormous, and far
greater than the cost of leveeing the en-
tire river front of the basin, adding that
the scheme is regarded by all engineers
and experts as impractcable and made
quate. To this the committee adds the gem
eral expression: In short, the committee
discovers no adequate relief from reser-
voirs."
The committee also adopted an amend
ment at the instance of Senator Vest, de-
clarng III favor of the improvement of the
Missouri river to afford every facility
for navigation. in the belief that such i'm
proyement will have the effect of reducing
railroad charges.
After the Senate met Senator Nelson pre-
sented the report to the Senate.
