RIVER IS FALLING
FROM STAGE OF TyzTRTY-EIGHT
 FEET, DECLINE BEGAN.
No Rise Expected as slight Rains VIII Not ChecIk Decrease--Eafr and
 Colder Predicted Today.

After going to stage of nearly sS feet early yesterday morning. the Ala bama River began to fall slowly, the gauge showing a reading of about 36.5 feet at the report of o'clock yester- day morning. During all of yesterday there was fall of about two inches per hour. Reports from Selma show that the water Is still rising very slow ly, the gauge showing a stage of about 37.e feet.
 No more rises are expected, as 1t will take several very excessive rainfalls to check tue present rate of fall.
 The cioudiness of yesterday afternoon and the slight rain towards night was induced by low barometer area then moving eastward over the Middle Ms sissippi Valley. This area also caused rains in Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas. with snow in Mississippi, Nebraska and Iowa.
 It was expected that thfs low area would move east with sufficient rapid- ity to cause rains over Alabama last night and early this morning. No heavy rains are expected. however. and their general character will be similar to that which fell yesterday af- ternoon.
 The unsettled weather will quickly give way to generally fair and colder weather today in advance of an area of high barometer moving in from the west. Brisk to high winds, of which taste was given to Montgomertans yesterday afternoon In the shape of dust whiris on Dexter Avenue and other thoroughfares. are expected to accompaniy the passing of the low area and the advance of the high.
 So citizens need not be alarmed and say things under breaths about bIeak- fast time this morning becauseN the weather seems to be cloudy and there are all the evidence of another seige of rain. Such will not be the case.
