INSPECTS MEMPHIS HARBOR
Members of River Commission Pay
Memphis Visit and Inspect I'M
provement Work.

Memphis, Tenn.-Gravity of the
Memphis harbor situation was i'm
pressed on members of the Mississip-
pi River Commission in a hearing held
by that body on the government boat
Mississippi.
B. L. Mallory was the spokesman
of the delegation Of Memphis citizens
who appeared before the river COM
mission in the assembly room of the
Mississippi. Mr.. Mallory reviewed
the conditions which exist on the
Memphis river front. He informed the
government men that probably one
fifth OF the cotton which comes into
Memphis annually has come by river,
which, he informed them, meant the
transportation here by boat of approx
imately 10000 bales Of cotton an
nually. The boats which carry the
cotton on their outbound trips carry
merchandise, he explained, holding a
large part of the trade between Mem
phis jobbers and manufacturers and
landings along the river in both direc-
lions.
Col. Townsend admitted that much
OF the work being done now is largely
in the nature Of an experiment. The
commissioners will be unable to tell
until after high water stage whether
the experiment is going to do what is
hoped of it, he added.
Ideas which have been advanced of
building jetties on the Arkansas side
Of the river to throw the current to
the Memphis side, in the hope of cut
ting away Mud Island or of trying to
throw the main current of the river
through Loosahatchie Chute, may as
well be abandoned, he said, as similar
efforts at other places on the 'Missis-
sippi rave proved futile.
Dredges will be kept at work here
until high water necessitates break
In their activities, the commissioner
promised.
Harry Pharr, chief engineer and H.
D. Tomlinson, president of the st.
Francis Levee Board, appeared before
the officials in regard to work being
eondr ID under their direction. Con-
struct "A of loop-levee near Barfield
Landing, at cost Of SAL, 400, and pur-
chase of right OF way for vaious levees

PEACE MOVEMENT GROWING
Concerted Effort To Bring About
Peace Is Gaining Considerable
Momentum.

Berlin (via Londonl.-The move.
ment for peace negotiations. according
to reports from the Swiss frontier,
which were printed by the Koelnische
Zeitung, is about to assume definite
shape in the form of Joint call from
various neutral governments to the
belligerents, asking them to send dele
gates to a peace convention.
The reports assert that the several
European neutrals are already in
touch with the American government,
and that various belligerents have been
sounded ON the proposition of a con-
ference.
According to this story, the confer
ence would necessarily open its sit
tings without an armistice being pro-
claimed, interruption of hostilities
coming only after 1t was established
that the negotiations are apt to be
crowned with success.

His was the proudest house In Eu-
rope. and his the most solitary and
ISOLATED Of all royal lives There was
little comfort for him in his sorrows,
hut he worked on unrelentingly and
, died 'steadfast" at his post.
There were many who said that the
unprecedented list of family disasters
that attended his life was due to a
curse that hung over the house of
Hapsburg, uttered by the aged Coun-
tess Carolyn, whose son was put to
death for participating In the Hun
agrian uprising in 1S4S. She called
on heaven and hell to blast the hap
piness of the emperor to exterminate
his family, to strike him through those
that. he loved, to wreck his life and
ruin his children.
