If the party should not reach Mont
gomery until Monday 1t rs probable a
larger steamboat than the Mills will
be used. AS members OF the River I'm
provement Committee from Wetump-
ka, Selma and Mobile are to be invited

a larger boat than the Mills will be
needed.

Of Wetumpka, who is a member of the
Committee, was advised by telephone
yesterday Of the coming of Mr.. Bur
ton. He said that Messrs Tate and
McMorris, the other Wetumpka mem
bers of the Committee. and himself
would probably join the party here.
The Selma members Of the Committee
were also advised and they have gone
to work to provide entertainment for
the party when II reaches the Central
City.
While the program is necessarily in
definite 1t Is certain that the steam
boat bearing the party will leave
Montgomery in the early morning ana
will reach Selma about twilight. A

ton and his party will go from Selma
direct to Washington.
ut is probable said Mr.. VandiveT
yesterday. that Mr.. burton will go to
Mobile before he comes TO Montgom-
cry. l certainly hope he will do SO
as Mobile harbor needs the support OF
