snowshoes. All the hotels. clubs and
public places of evry kind We're crowded
with people living in the suburbs who
got caught in town and who had to be

made no attempt to leave his hotel
while the storm lasted, as it was abso-

HARcouRT's RESIGNATION.

The resignation of Sir William YER

the river. The new boats VIII travel
at the rate of from fifteen to eighteen
miles an hour upstream and from TWEEN
ty-one to twenty-four miles an hour
downstream. Each boat will be steel
hulled, with a length of 300 feet and 90
feet beam. Their draught will be 81
inches light and 36 inches loaded. This
will enable them to run even when the
water Is at Its lowest stage. Their holds
will be furnished by alright compart-
merts. like those of ocean steamers,
rendering them practically unsuitable.
Ii is estimated that the cost of each
passenger steamer will be 100000 and
have ten times that amount pledged
by merchants In every river town from
st, Paul to New Orleans, including
many prominent st. Loulsans.
THE saving of time Will not be en-
trely due to the speed of the boats.
Forty naphtha tenders will be operated
in connection with the line, to obvlate
the necessity of making landings to
take on passengers and freight. Those
tenders will patrol the river, collecting
freight, express matter and passengers,
and will meet the steamer In mid
stream. There will be short stop
when passengers are taken on. Freight
and express matter can be taken on
while the boats are running at full
speed, the result being a great saving
of time. The tenders are being built
at Madison, Ind, and the upper struc-
lures and machinery at Jeffersonvllle,
Ind The strong feature OF the line will
be that steamer VIII leave st. Louis
every day, and there Will be no disap-
polntments. Where 1t now takes seven
days TO make the run from st. Louis to
New Orleans the new steamers will
cover the distance in two and one-half
days, and make the round trip in less
than week. The trip to st. Paul which
now consumes four days, will be made
in thirty-elght hours"
Mr.. Liemke firmly believes that with
faster and better boats and punctual
service, with the freight and passenger
business separated. the levees Of the
great river will once more resound to
the rumbllng of the dray wheels the
crack of the teamsters' whips, the
blasts of the steamboat whistles, and
the song of the darby roustabouts.

STEAMBOAT TRAFFIC.
Mississippi River IL to Teen with a
Fleet of Palatial Vessels.

Ii may sound like dream. but an
other year may witness revival of the
good old days. when the great Missis-
/ sppl teemed with life. and when fleet
and palatlal steamers piled Its broad
! waters in regular and profitable trips
i between all the important points from
/ st. Paul TO New Orleans. To do this
and to regain for traffic on the father Of
waters Its longlost splendor. a mag
nidcent fleet of passenger steamers Is
to be built for service between the two
points named. In elegance of equip
ment the passenger steamers VIII rival
the famous old Robert T.. Lee or the
Natchez. and Will completely Guido
them in speed.
H. H. Liemke. of ST. Louis. an old
river man. who, In years of experience
on the Mississippi. has learned steam
boating from eabin-boy up, is at the
head of the enterprise. and also the III
yentor of the new style of steel boats
which are TO travel the river from its
source to Its mouth. He has labored
on this project for several years, until
today he has people all along the river
Interested in his plans. Mr.. Liemke's
plans are more feasible than any that
have ever been advanced, and he has
received sufficient encouragement from
shippers all along the river TO insure
the construction OF n fleet OF steamers,
such as are shown in the Illustrations.
Mr.. Liemke makes the statement that
the steamers will be so equipped that
they will be formidable competitors OF
the railroads. which now parallel the
river ON both banks. In discussing his
project recently Mr.. Llemke said:

Wilmington, Del, the order for the first
