WATERWAYS MEN JEALOUS
euT DELEGATES FROM ALABAMA
 ARE UNITED.
Some Dissatisfaction Created By De- mand of States Borderlng On the Mississippi and Ohie
 HfYera.

Washington, D. C.. Dec. 1I.--(Spe- ciai. )--Echoes of the recent Rivers and Harbors Congress indicate that some tealousies were aroused. but the dele gates from Alabama do not appear to have been mixed up in them.
 It will be recalled that unusually numerous delegations of leading men were present from the states border ing on the Mississippi and Ohio rivers. They have had strong organizations for number of years. and they seem to be endeavoring to increase the in- terest felt In the propositions for a fourteen-foot channel In the Missis- sippi and nine-foot channel in the Ohio river.
 Delegations from some of the other sections have been heard to express the opinion that this combination wants more than any other part or the country. but there has been no open rupture. as yet. and probably things will work out all right so that har- mony will prevail among the senators and representatives in Congress when the next general river and harbor bill Ia framed. 7t,ef r d,oB9I4y 2
 1t Is generally conceded that a measure carrying liberal appropria- tions will be passed during the pres ent session. and In MT. Taylor. Ala hama. has q member of the committee who will be An a position to insist that Alabama shall not be left out In the provision to be made for future work.
 President Taft's special message concerning rivers and harbors is being awaited with keen interest by the Southern congressman.
 So far Committeeman Barker and Collector Thompson have secured the appointment of one of the postmasters In Alabama whose names were on the list of recommendations handed in about ten days ago.
 1t Is said the other cases will come up soon at the department. Soms people are claiming that Postmaster Garter will be retained at Birming' ham in spite of the indorsen1ent oi Barker and Thompson of Joseph Bow ron, but the prevailing opinion is thai the latter will eventually get the Job Alfred J.
