Rains in the Free State Make Fords
ImpaSSabIe.

MODDER RIVER, Jan. 12-(Delayed in
transmission Rains in the Free State
have raised the Modder River three feet
and as there is a strong current it is i'm
possible to use the fords. The only means
OF transit is by the pon.oon bridges.
A mounted Boer picket was seen after
daybreak today a mile beyond the left
front of our picket line in the direction
Drosmead. There were eight men in the
party all mounted. They spread out over
a distance Of 200 yards and were very
quick and successful in their scouting
work, taking advantage Of every particle
of cover. AS soon as the day broke they
disappeared.
The night signaling Of the Beers can be
seen fol a distance of twelve miles along
the mountain ranges They use the Ger
man code and can only send three words
a minute.
Yesterday a Boer dressed in kits and
khaki walked alone toward a picket OF the
Highland Brigade. The Scotchmen thought
he was a comrade who had escaped from
the Beers or one Of their own men who
had got beyond the lines. When he was
about 500 yards from he line the Boer
fired three shots at the Highland picket
and then turned and ran toward the Boer
camp. The Highlanders sent volley aft
er him, but il . believed the burgher es-

THE WAR REVENUE LAWS.
A Conference With the President Re
specting "a Revision

Representatives Steele Of Indiana. Payne
of New York, Huh Of Iowa, and DaIzeIl of
Pennsylvania. called together on the Presi-
dent this morning.
They came to the White House 10 dis
| cuss in a general way the question of
! framing certain amendments 10 the War
Revenue bill. Il is not expected that these
will be many or very important
From all parts OF the country have come
complaints 70 members Of Congress regard
ing the hardships or Inconvenience Of the
stamp tax As consequence. the Admin
istration members OF Congress feel that
something should be done to satisfy con-
situents and TO modify some OF the more
inconyenient features Of the law II is
well understood that the revenues viii
stand some slight reductions, without en-
barrassing the Government A few of the
taxed articles, it is said, could be Topped
off "a please constituents without a whole
sale revision of the Revenue law.
The stamp on express receipts causes a
good deal OF trouble in various parts OF
the country. complaints regarding it have
been frequent and bitter and ii is thought
by the House leaders that the income from
this source might well be sacrificed to the
public convenience.
The beer tax and the stamps required
on proprietary articles have also been the
cause Of much friction among the people.
who have the tax to pay.
It is believed the House leaders have
hit upon a plan OF introducing a few
amendments to the Revenue law, which
will not stir up too much excitement in
Congress, and which will please the PEOPLE
Of the country by tightening taxes. This
plan was presented 10 the President this
morning by Representative Steele end
those who accompanied him.
The growing influence OF the Congress
siOnal delegation from Iowa is a matter OF
comment at the White House For in
stance, this morning Senator Allison called
upon the President and was with him
some time talking over an appointment
and discussing the progress of the Cur
rency bill and the Subsidy bill which is to
follow It.
Representative Dolliver Is a FREQUENT
caller, as are Mr.. Hepburn and Mr.. Cous-
ins. In fact. there are about six Iowans.
including Speaker Henderson, who are
very prominent in Administration councils.
They consult Mr.. Mckinley with a fre-
quency that has excited comment here, 1t
begins to look as though the influence
once Welded by the State of Maine in
Washington had been transferred to Iowa.

Report OF Governments survey
Transmitted to Congress.
The Secretary Of War has transmitted to
Congress a letter from the Chief Of Engi-
neers, United States Army. together with
cCIy Of a report from a Board Of Engineers
consisting Of Major James b. Quinn. Capt
Charles : Richie. and Capt. Clement A. f.
FIagIer. Corps Of Engineers. OF a survey Of
the proposed channel through Sabine Lake
Texas. made in compliance with the provis-
ions OF the River and Harbor act Of March
3. 1888.
The board has had under consideration
four different locations for the channel with
depths Of 9. L. and - feet through Sabine
Lake and il recommends the construction
OF a channel 100 feet wide on bottom and
125 feet wide on too with mean low-water
depth Of feet along the Louisiana shore
Of the lake, and connecting mouths Of
Sabine and Neches Rivers, all at an esti-
mated cost Of $3O0. COO
In the opinion of the Board any channel
through the lake will require dredging for
maintenance. and the report contemplates
the purchase OF a suitable dredge at a cost
Of 500, OOO. and an annual appropriation OF
$50 900 for its operation. The need Of q
channel through this lake is principally fo-
the transportation Of lumber to vessels
lying in the pass. The lumber is at pres
ent in danger of loss on this passage. and
subject TO a freight rate or 81 per l 900. This
rate is due 20 risk OF loss and demurrage
OccasiOned by storms causing low water in
the lake. II was stated to the board that
this rate would be reduced 20 per cent by
a G-foot channel through the lake.
