WOULD BUILD BOAT
FOR LEAF kIVER
CAPTAIN N. n. ROUSE SAYS IT
WOULD SAVE CITY 100000
ANNUALLY.

A steamboat line from Hattiesburg
to the Gulf would save the city in re-
duced freight rates 100000 the first
year." said Capt. M. H. Rouse, an old
time steamboat man who is here to
consult with R. c. Hauenstein, secre
tary of the Commercial. He will build
a boat to navigate the river, he says, II
he can get sufficient encouragement
from the city of Hattiesburg and ship
pers along the river.
Capt. Rouse is accompanied by his
son, j. G. Rouse, who is also a steam
boat man of wide experience. There
is no reason why the river can not be
navigated with the right sort of boat,
he says. He will probably make a trip
down the river In a bateau to inspect
the channel and find out what sort OF
boat is needed and what ohstructions
will have to be removed. There are
no permanent distractions In this river,
he says, and the few bars and snags
could be removed by private capital.
Capt. Rouse says he has operated
boats on rivers much smaller than
Leaf river Hetsays he does not re-
quire much more than heavy dew on
the grass to float boat If 1t is con-
structed right. On the Arkansas river,
he says, boats have web feet and
jointed boilers because the river is
changing so much, but the condition
here would not be so difficult.
The boat, he said, would probably
draw about Is inches of water and
would be 1Sx9O feet in the hull The
boat would push a couple of barges in
front and could greatly reduce the cost
of freight to the Gulf.
Mr.. Hauenstein has taken the matter
under advisement and will probably
take the matter up at the next meeting
of the club.

Marking Prices Up.

SOPHISTICATED as Wall street IL sup
posed to be, II is never SO surprised as
when the stock market rises simply on
it's technical conditions and not because
of any news development which might
radically affect sentiment That In why
Wall street was surprised yesterday and
advanced all sorts of fantastic rumors,
such as that Louis r. Brandeis had
taken the long side of the market, to ex-
plain the rise. The impulse which started
the move might have been the effect of
any rumor, however improbable. upon the
speculative element, but the underlying
cause was simply the absence OF stock
Offering combined with the existence Of a
fair sized short interest. The financial
district rad plain warning that the stock
market was in condition that made
something of the kind that occurred yes
terday probable. The Clafiin failure eliml-
mated what weak long position there was,
hut did not induce liquidation from out
slders Since Thursday prices had
moved within "A narrow range In way
TO induce remaking OF contracts for
the fall rather than for the rise. The
extensive gains scored yesterday were
out of all proportion to tho volume OF
business Transactions were barely over
the quarter OF IA million shares mark,
making II obvious that the market was
not advanced by main force, but rose
simply because the available supply was
exceedingly limited. Broadly speaking.
what happened was marking up OF
uriccs lust as they had been similarly
marked down last week on small sales,
substantially all by the professional or
semi professional element.
