Steel Barges for the Mississippi

From the New Orleans Times-Democrat
 The arrival here yesterday of two of the new steel barges from St. Louis, loaded with grain and other produce, marks an important event in river history, and may mean revolution in our transportation business. The whaleback steamer has solved the problem of transportation on the great lakes; it may do the same for the Mississippi and restore the prestige and usefulness of New Orleans water route to the interior. These barges more- over, come at a most suspicious time, when Chicago as well as St. Louis seems to realize the value of the river as a trans- portation route and as doing everything possible to secure its improvement.
 We are now trying for the third time barges as a means of moving river freight. The old flatboats were but barges, moved, however, wholly by the current of the river, and not by steam or other mos tive power. They were the crudest of barges; the losses were heavy, and they were soon abandoned. During the seven ties St. Louis again tried barges as offer ing the best means of getting the grain to the seaboard; and for time nearly all the grain sent out to New Orleans came by the river route. The railroads were not able to meet the water rate
 Now it Is proposed to go back to barges; but this time they are of 8 different char acter, built of steel and of the whAleback variety, or at least somewhat on the whale back principal. It Is pretty much the s<.ue change as we have seen upon the ocean, first the sailing vessel, followed by the wooden steamer, and finally by the steamer built of steel.
 The advantages of this particular kind of barge need not be discussed. They have been thoroughly tested on the great lakes, where they are doing an immense business and carrying freight at rates previously believed impossible. A large part of the grain grown in the west reaches the sea- board in these vessels, and the irOR and copper ores of Michigan are handled by them only. The wonderful increase which has recently taken place in the lake com merce is mainly attributable to the great freight capacity of the whalebacks and their safety against all ordinary dangers.
 There Is every reason to believe that the whalebAck will prove as we'll adapted to the commerce of the Mississippi to that of the great lakes The first trip down here has been eminently successful in all re- spects, being made in comparatively short time and without loss or danger.
 New Orleans feels deeply interested in the experiment, for 1t recognizes how much a successful barge line on the rivor means for it and it's trade.

DETECTIVE RYAN
Shot by Negro Who Had Under Ar.
 rest.

New Decatur, November 22.-(Special.)- Last night L. 6 N. Detective J. W. Ryan arrested two negro hoboes in the com panys yards here, who had just arrived on freight from the North, and as MT. Ryan was placing the handcuffs on one of the negroes the other negro fired on him with a 3S-calabre revolver One ball en- tered the back of MT. Ryan's neck causing a painful, though not a dangerous wound The remarkable part of the story is that MT. Ryan had searched both negroes pre- vious to the shooting and could find no weapons of any kind.
 At the commencement of the shooting both negroes fled and Mir Ryan opened fire on them with 44-calabre Colts revol- yer, and it is supposed that one of the negroes was mortally wounded as he gave a cry of pain at the discharge of MT. Ry- ans gun. The two negroes fled in the darkness and no trace of them has yet been found.
 A posse is in search of the negroes, and if caught they will be roughly dealt with

From the Memphis Schimitar
 At the seventh-ward registration booth on Tuesday night an old negro applied for his certificate.
 The clerks propounded the usual category of questions to him regarding his age, the period of his abode in the State and city, his place of residence and like matters. Fin ally he was asked to name his occupation. 'I belongs to de city scrimAtory force," was his reply.
 What sort of an organization is that?' asked the bewildered clerk.
 'Why, just scrimatory, dats all. We scrimates things.
 Well, you have sprung a new occupa- ton on us. What kind of things do you scrimate?"
 "Cats and dogs and horses and mules everything dat's 'cep'n folks," answered tho negro.
 Then it dawned on the clerk that he be- longed to the crematory department of the city scavengers.

From Memphis.

Memphis, Tenn November 22-Telegraph and telephone communication with most of the points struck by Tuesday afternoons storm has been restored, but the reports re- ceived thus far today indicate that the full measure of the disaster in Mississippi and Tennessee has not been told in the dis patches of yesterday and last night
 The more remote country districts In the path of the storm have not been fully heard from, but owing to the Comparatively small population 1t is believed that few names will be added by them to the list of killed and injured
 So far it Is impossible to approximate the property loss. Except in LaGrange, and in Maurey and Williamson Counties, rennes- see, the buildings destroyed were of small value, taken in detail, though the aggregate loss on them all will be large.
 The damage to the cotton crop in the torm-swept localities from the terrific wind and beating rain will be heavy.
