The Fall of the River Will be
Slow at Paducah.
Large Crowd Went Out on the Fowler
High Water
News.
SITUATION AT EVANSVILLE

The river has been stationary here
since yesterday. It Is expected that a
slow decline will begin here today.
and the fall of the swollen streams Is
expected to be slower than the rise,
which makes the danger not yet
passed.
Today's reports show the rivers fall
ing everywhere except at one or two
points, which makes the decline here a
certainty. 1t is not known how much
rain there has been above, but il there
has been much. It has not yet been
felt.
There is q general belief among the
river men that the danger Of a higher
stage of water is about over, unless
there should be heavy rains before the
decline has been felt.
There was big rush to go ON the
Dick Fowler's excursion to Smithland
yesterday afternoon. The number of
passengers carried AIS, perhaps the
largest excursion taken out Of Paducah
in several years except on the big Isl.
and Queen. The boat could have car
ried equally as many more who were
on the bank trying to get aboard, had
there been room. The Wheeler Guards,
which intended to go got down to late
ana were crowded of. The boat went
to Smithland and gave the people a
good view of the swollen rivers, and q
most enjoyable afternoon was spent.
Al Evansville the river stands al
Ar feet. A graveyard below there,
six miles ON the Indiana side, wst
washed away, over 80 grsvestones top
ping into the river The burial
ground contained the remains Of some
Of the old pioneers of the county, and
was situated on little knoll.
: At Metropolis a rather peculiar fea'
ture of the present high water stage
in the Ohio is that Cache creek, which
has its source in Massac county, and
empties into the Ohio just above Cal
70, now has remarkably strong cur
rent. Heretofore the stream has been
very sluggish, and more Of a swamp
than anything else. The theory is that
water from the Ohio enters 1t some
where in Massac county, and, forcing
its way out, has washed channel.

and with the expected stage Of nearly
40 feet on the Memphis gauge. and
the probabilities that high pressure
will continue from four to five days
longer, engineers no longer predict
that their embankments can stand the
strain.
The river rose six tenths since 7
last night. The present stage is the
highest ever known. Il is still sta
tionary at New Orleans. The levee at
Holly Bush is washing away rapidly,
and enormt us damage is being done.
The weak point Is thousand yards
long. Hundreds are leaving homes in
North Memphis and the situation is
decidedly worse than ever before. The
street car service there has been aban.
doned and many schedules are annull.

ed at and around Dyersburg. The
water there is higher than ever known
before. The river is still falling be-
tween Cincinnati and Evansville.

Local Politicians are Waiting
for Court Decision.
Then the Candidates will Swarm out
in Great Numbers,
No Doubt.
POSSIBILITIES
MAYORALTY

Local politicians are eagerly await
ing the decision Of the court Of appeals
at Frankfort in the injunction suits,
which will set at rest all doubts as to
the regularity and constitutionality of
the transfer of Paducsh to the second
class.
There is little, if any doubt now,
but nothing definite can well be done
until the court passes ON the question
and settles 1t. One of the principal
questions that is now under discussion
among the leading Democrats is who
will run for mayor. A number of men
have been mentioned, but 1t seems
that most of the politicians realize the
Importance Of concentrating the vote
Of the opposition against Mayor Yei-
ser, IL they expect to beat the latter.
Just whether they will be able to do
this or not is rather uncertain at pres
emit. as number of good Democrats
with strong following have the bee
in their bonnet pretty strong, and il
will take some hard scrapping to pull
them off the track.
Among those who are mentioned as
probable candidates for the nomins-
ton are Colonel r. c. Caldwell, Coun-
Gilman Joe Potter, Former Mayor
James NJ. Lang. Mr.. Job Randall and
former Councilman 10. r. Davis, and
last, but not least, Mayor d. A. Yei-
ser.
1t is conceded that two or three can
didates against Mayor Yeiser would
mean the lstter's nomination as he is
believed to DO strong enough to win
with the opposition divided. even If
be couldn't do it..otherwise. Il is said
that Mr.. Job Randall, who thought he
would run short time ago, has now
decided. not to make the race.
Some of Councilman Joe Potter's
friends say that if he runs he will run
as an independent, while others say
that he would not think Of making the
race except on the Democratic ticket.
There is one faction strongly in ia
vor Of pulling off all the candidates
except former Councilman G. R. Ds-
Wis, and making a warm race between
him and Mayor Yeiser for the nomina-
ton.
Another faction is strongly 10 favor
of running former Mayor Lang. May
or Lang says he wouldn't have the job
again for any considerat ion, but q
strong pressure is daily being brought
to bear on him and his name will not
down, and he may be induced to
change his mind. The greatest prob
lem among the several factions that
are going to fight Mayor Yeiser is how
to get rid of the superfuity of candi-
dates ana be placed in position to
centralize their force on one man. The
present indications are that they will
have to put lot of pretty earnest as
pirants out of business to do this.
As soon as the decision of the appel
late court is announced the Democrat
ic political pot will begin boiling furi-
ously, and interesting developments
are expected.
