A MERCHANT IN TROUBLE.

Brookhaven. some time past
J. M. Wood, grocery man Of this
place, has been missing various arti-
eles from his store which disappeared
mysteriously. Some of these being Of
peculiar brand, handled only by
himself, were identified one day last
week in the store Of a merchant
named Renfro, doing business in the
same block. Further investigation led
to Renfro's being arrested and bound
over to the circuit court for receiving
and concealing stolen property. The
evidence brought out on the prelimi-
nary trial showed that two negro
youths employed as porters in Woods
store have been engaged in stealing
articles whenever the opportunity
presented and delivering them through
back lot to the other merchant.

Vicksburg. General T. @. Catch
ings, the senior democratic member of
the house committee on rivers and
harbors, is in the city and expects to
leave for Washington some day this
week. In speaking Of the threatened
defeat Of the rivers and harbors bill
he said: II am hopeful that the
rivers and harbors bill will pass, not
withstanding the troubles which now
seem to best it, There is plenty OF
time If there is real purpose to pass
It, and l believe there is. There are
too many important works involved
to justify any apprehension that an
effort will be seriously made to de-
feat it. When it passes the senate 1t
will no doubt be in unsatisfactory
shape as to many features. 1t will
hen GO to a conference committee,
which will revise and reform it.
