GOOD FOR THE ARKANSAS.
The Mississippi River Again Rising,
and the Arkansas May be Able
to Clear the Bar.

st. Louis. May 1s.-Since Saturday
night the Mississippi river at this
point has risen nearly four feet, and
there are indica tions of a continued
rise.
Rivermen are preparing to bring
their boats nearer to the shore.
In the opinion of several pilots,
who have recently come up the river,
the monitor Arkansas should be able
to lift anchor and resume her delayed
journey to the sea as soon as the pres
ent tide reaches her at Ste. Genevieve.
If the rise brings an additional foot
or two, as some of the rivermen pre-
dict that it will, there will be moth
ing further to hinder the Arkansas
progress. Once in the current the
craft may ride the high wave through
to deep water in safety.
The Arkansas draws 1115- feet, and
the soundings on the bar at Ste Gene
We've show a depth of only 91a feet.
With the rise indicated at ST. Louis
the government vessel will be able to
cross the bar which has been holding
it a prisoner.
kilograms from up-the-river points
show that an increasing volume of
water is pouring into the Mississippi
from it's tributaries, marking the be-
ginning of what is known as the June
rise.

mission of the United States, COM
posed of the secretaries of war and

regard to the settlement of claims
against the government and the
counter claims of the government
against the State. The amount in
volved aggregates about $1,000
900. The claim of the State against
the government grows out of the
confscation of railroad properties
by the United States government
during the war, and repeated efforts
have been made to get the govern
ment to settle the matter, without
results.

edy existing evils along this line is
first to secure necessary reform leg
islation, and, second, to improve the

of the order, made telling remarks
along the same line.
