River Conditions at Pittsburg

The three rivers are now at lower
stage than they have been at any other
time this year and it Is probable that
in u very short time navigation will
have been completely suspended. The
fuel boats are doing nothing save
keeping the mills supplied with coal,
and no tows have gone out for some
time. The packet boats are still able
to navigate, but those that will go out
today will do Sc with the risk of hav-
ing to tie up before reaching their des-
tination. Boats from southern ports
will not attempt to reach this city un-
til the rivers rise.

TlllMAh WILL ENTER.
He is Going in the Campaign 10 Fiqht
Prohibition.

Senator Tillman arrived in the
city last night and will leave this
afternoon for the campaign meeting
at Benncttsvillc. Some surprise
was expressed in political circles
that the Senator should again enter
the campaign because he has no op-
position. But it is generally be.
licvcd that he will make number
OF speeches against prohibition. 1t
IS well known that the Senator has
always opposed the prohibition idea
and no doubt he will make it warm
for the advocates of this theory.
Naturally he will defend the dis
pcnsary as the best solution Of the
liquor question, as he was the father
of the plan.
Politicians in expressing them
selves to-day were somewhat divided
on what the effect of Senator Till
mans appearance in the campaign
will be. There are those who be-
licvc that he will arouse the old time
enthusiasm and that the dispcnsary
will win in walk. There are 9TH
crs who think that his interference
may have the opposite effect to
which it was intended to have. Sen
ator Tillman being candidate him
sell has perfect right to speak and
uphold any position he wants, but
somehow there is feeling that he
should hoe his own row and let the
other candidates do the same
