The river and harbor bill, whloh passed the House of Representatives on May 29th, 1890, and wnioh is now under consideration by the Senate committee on oommeroe, provides for the Coosa river as follows: "Improving the Coosa river in Georgia and Alabama, between Rome, in Georgia, and East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia railroad bridge, in Alabama: Continuing improvement un-dor approved existing project, one hundred and fifty thousand dollars.

Also for improving said river botweon Wetumpka, in Alabama, and said Teunossee, Virginia and Georgia railroad bridge, work to be oumtnenced at Wetumpka end, one hundred and fifty thousand dollars, of which so much as may be necessary is authorized to be expended in acquiring, by purchase or condemnation under the laws of Alabama, the lands needed in making such improvement, as the same become necessary; such improvement to bo raado in harmony with the existing approved projoct for the improvement of the Coosa river between Rome, and said bridge; locks to be forty feot Wide and two hundred and ten feet between mitre sills." Tho existing project referred to, provides for tho improvement of the river botween Rome, and the E. V- R. R. bridgo, by tho construction of li.cks forty foot wide and 210 feet long, at such points as may be necessary, and by the removal of rocks and other obstructions between the looks, in such manner as to provide a channel three feet deep at low water. Under this project, which was adpoted in 1878, three locks have been completed between Gadsden, and the Broken Arrow coal fields, which will afford water transportation up-stream from those coal fields to Gadsden, Rome and intermediate points ou the river.

No i'cks have yet been built below the Broken Arrow coal fields. Iu a report to the chief of engineers ou tho survey of the Coosa River between the improvements already completed und Wetumpka, under date of December 30. 1S30, it is estimated that twenty-eight lock9 will be required to open the river from the Brokon Arrow coal fields to Wetumpka, and it is recommended that the size of the locks, to be built to accommodate the down-stream coal and iron oro traffic, shall bo increased to a width of lifty-two feet, and a length of 322 feet, in ordor that one tow-boat and three barges may pass through each lock at one lockage. In January, 1888, Col. William E.

Merrill, Corps of Edgineors, U. S. an officer who has had a large experience in the construction of locks aud dams, and is an expert on the subject of slack water navigation, made an inspection and report on the Coosa river work. The following is an extract from Colonel Merrill's report: "The most serious question is whether or not the present improvement will meet the wants of the people of the Coosa Valley. It is designed to give a low water navigation for steamboats of three feet.

I think that it will undoubtedly secure this object. Whether such a navigatiou will meet popular ex pectation is anotnor question. From my long experience with towing coal on the Ohio river. I feel justified in asserting that coal cannot be profitably handled on less than six feet of water. It is my opinion that it is hardly worth while to improve the Coosa river by so expensive a process as tho construction of locks and dams, unless a navigation is created that will permit the cheap shipment of coal.

On the Coosa, these shipments would naturally be made up-stream to Gadsden and Rome, and down-stream to Wetumpka and points below. Locks 1, 2, and belong to tho up-stream line of navigation, and lock i to the downstream. As the latter look has 'not besu begun, I would recommend that it be changed at once to the dimensions already adopted for the Black Warrior river, so as to pass two standard Pittsburg coal barges (25x130), and one tow-boat in one lockuge." Before beginning work on the locks on the Black Warrior river, near Tus-kaloosa, the plans of Maj. A. N.

Damrell, corps of engineers, U. S. AM were referred to a Board of Engineers. Maj. Damrell's original plans provided for locks 300 feet long and 52 feet wide.

The Board recom mended, on the ground that a profitable coal traffic could not be carried on with; locks of less size, that the length of the locks should be increased 22 feet, and the locks are now being built 322 feet long by 52 feet wide. In a report dated June 21st, 1832, a Board of Engineers appointed to con sider tho question of improvement of the great Kanawha river, in West Virginia, state: "Locks Nos. 4 and 5 are built 50 feet wide and 300 feet between mitre sills. Since the adoption of these dimen sions, mere lias Deen a gradual increase in the size of (coal barges, and tow-boats in, use on the river, and to aooinmodate.it, if the dimensions of No. 6, were increased to a width of 55 feet, and to a length 312 feet between mitre -sills, which change, in the opinion of the board, is a judicious one.

A lock ought to be able to hold at least two barges, and oue first class tow-boat, suon as Habitually ply on tne river." In reports, in 1887, on the improvement of the Cumberland River, Tennessee, a board of engineers make the following remarks: "All their past experience teaches that the requirement) of commerce have demanded enlargement of the projects originally submitted. They attach no importance to the opinions of the river navigators touching this question, as these very men I would be the first to build larger, and I 1 inereiorn proportionately more economical boats, and then blame the engineers for having failed to provide sufficient accommodations. The locks on the Cumberland river are assumed to be specially iutended for the development of the coal traffic of the Upper Cumberland. To handle full tow wltn tow-Doat at one loonage. For the present it is deemed best to assume as the ordinary tow, one tow-boat end three barges, It is assumed that whatever be the present sizes ot Cumberland river coal barges, they will ultimately be made to conform to the standard size in use on the Ohio and Great Kanawha rivers, whloh is 130 feet long and 25 feet wide.

Two barges abreast will then reauire a width of 62 feet. The length of tow-boat that will Drobably be used tor suoh fleets; will be 25 feet wide and 150 feet over all." The length of the look is therefore fixed at 322 feet In view'of the facts stated in these quotations, from reports of distinguished offloers of the Corps of Engineers, who have had large experlenos in slmiliar work, it will be unfortunate to the interests affected by the opening of the Coosa river, should the appropriation for that purpose pass the Senate, with the restrictions, as to the size of the lock9, now oontalned in the river and harbor bill Only one boat. or barge, can pass suoh looks at one time, and it will be neoessafy at each of the twenty-eight looks between the Broken Arrow Coal Fields and Wetumpka, to break up the tow) and pass each boat and barge through separately. So muoh time and expense will be involved in this operation that it is doubtful if coal and iron-ore transportation, nan be carried on, profitably and It is probable that the benefits so anxiously expected to be derived from the opouing of the Coosa river, may be entirely lost, unless the standard size is adopted for the locks. KICKING OI OF THE TRACES.

Some of the more conscientious and scrupulous Republicans have revolted against the mode and method of the party in the present Congress. The main object in view seems to be tho devising of ways and means to retain tho Republican party in power, and when that all desired plan is revealed, it is proposed to carry it out, regard-loss of consequences, nor do they propose to stand upon the order of its en actment. Democrats are to be counted out and Republicans put in until the majority is sufficiently safe beyond all risk, and then the work will begin, the screws tightened and all the weak, kneed whiupod into line. When the McKinley bill was up in tho House Ben Butterworth made a good Democratic speech against it. He characterized it as a measure that would make people pay more for every thing than they pay now, exposed its shortcomings and evils, and yet upon its passage Mr.

Butterworth could not resist party pressure and actually voted for the bill against which he had said so much in debate. He hopes to see the meusure amended in the Senate, but the party lash will be applied there, and although there may bo an outburst of honest indignation, the ro- suit will be the same, 'and the bill passed by. a strict party vote. Only on day before yesterday Mq Teller gave expression to views on the silver bill, greatly1 at variance witU-those of his party in the Senate, tearing it literally to pieces, and yet on its passage he will be found voting with the majority. And so it will be with the election law.

There are a number of Republicans who oppose the high handed scheme, but they will fall into line and give their vote if not their hearty and willing support. Hence this kicking out of traces amounts to but little, and is all for the ears of watchful constituents who are, iu many instances demanding the defeat of the tariff and the silver bills now before Congress. The people have almost learned that the only hope of relief is through the Democratic party, which is the party of the people and which always is in favor of legis lation granting the greatest good to the greatest number. Let the Democratic party stick to the old land mark, remain united upon all fundamental questions of governmental policy, and success awaits it They are having a hot time id South Carolina politics just now, and "Oh, the pity of it Iago," the row is all within the Democratic ranks. If the South Carolina Democrats should profit by the example of those in Ala bama, all will be well.

Birmingham Age-Herald. This can only mean that our Bir mingham contemporary disapproves Tillman and his class movement in South Carolina. Why does it disapprove in that State that which it approved and aided in this? Last Sun day it double-leaded this: uTo the 50,000 (whew!) Alabama farmers who are weekly readers of the Age-Herald, we have a word to say: It was a good fight you made, a fair, honest, honora ble fight of the farmers; one they had a right to make, one we honor them for making." Maro Antony in his famed funeral oration had a great deal to say about a noble cause and honorable men, in the hope of boosting himself in publio opinion. But his campaign clap-trap only caused a temporary tumult The people soon found him out and seeing that he was the same old selfish, scheming demagogue, did not make him their demigod. The Age-Herald's opinion on the South Carolina situation is a dead give-away.

Whero is that Providence that watches over children and another class? In the Senatorial convention for the Twelfth Distriot, composed of tho counties of Franklin, Fayette, Marion and Lamar, held on Tuesday, lion. R. Bradley was nominated. Mr. Bradley represented Lamar county in the last House, and was a careful and pains taking legislator, and will represent his distriot with credit in the Senate.

The Eleventh Congressional Dis triot. of Texas now represented by Samuel W. T. Lanham is composed of 97 counties and a territory about the size of the Entire New England States. There is no building in the distriot large enough to hold more than half the dete gates to a nominating convention, they just take possession Met Tnlnk Thar Will Vo.ro-pean Lootow, Juna 1L The Telegraph today contains a report of its correspondent's interview with Prinot Bismarck.

Prince ridiculed the kind friends of Germany whorejoioed at his resignation end now want him to be speechless. He declared his intention to oontnue to serve the oountry until the last He said he was able to do so now with a freer hand. For instance, in France and Russia the only oountries that could possibly bear a grudge, he was able, now that he was relieved of official restraint, in many. Ways to promote peace. He discussed I at length the relations between Ger-1 many and Franco whioh he said were exoellent The attitude of the French fovernment was exemplary and of tha renoe people paolQo.

Nobody was more earnest for peace than was Emperor William, who, bent upon the internal reforms for Germany, had no idea of aggression. When asked whether it was possible to extinguish the French people's grievance by the restoration of their provinces, the Prlnoe deolafed that restoration was utterly impossible, and that it must be left to time to remove their resentment The relations with Russia, he said, were equally good and certainly would not attack Germany. The Czar was amicably disposed toward Germany. He was averse to conquost He disliked physical exertion, a point whioh was not without importanoe to the peace of Europe. He believed it impossible that England and Germany should ever quarrel seriously.

If thoy did quarrel it might lead to a Continenal oonfllot. even if England abstained from fighting Tnls, however, was contingency that was wildly improbable the Afrloan dispute was a trifling matter. The money involved on the part of both companies was less than a single day's expenditures when preparing for a great war. "A few trustworthy Europeans," said Bismarck. "know or care about these mysterious regions For my own believe that Lord Salisbury's temperate words are more to England's taste than Stanley's fieros ones.

We are both fair dealing people and respeot one another sinoeroly. We can easily oorae to a proper understanding. There has been plenty of arrant nonsense talked and written about tnls paltry affair. A few words dictated by common reason do ho harm." INCLINED TO KICK. Fraae Sand a Note to Egypt oa the Can- Teralon Soheme.

Paris, June 10. The Chamber of Deputies, without debate, has adopted a duty on foreign molasses. In the Chamber to-day Ribot, Min ister of Foreign Affairs, read France's note to Egypt After declaring that tne difficulty of employing tne profits of the conversion debt' is more serious than conversion itself, France contends that the time has arrived when England, in accordance with the many declarations and self congratulations of her ministers and for the prosperity and security of Egypt ought to evacuate the country. The note expresses surprise that the powers do not agree in recognizing that the profits of conversion ought to be applied to increasing Egypt's mili tary forces in order to enable her to dispense with British troops. Believing, however, that all parties interested are disposed to give the subject Iran it consideration, rance assents to the conversion soheme reserving the question of evacuation for future negotiations, ayf After reading the note Ribot de clared that France desired most cordial relations with England, but would lose no opportunity to protest against England establishing herself in Egypt TRAINS COLLIDE.

Big- Loeometivaa Una Together en the Mineral, But Nobody Bart, Birmingham, June 10. Speoial. A head-end collision occurred between freight trains on the Birmingham Mineral road, about 2 o'olook yesterday afternoon, near Woodward's crossing. The trains were Nos. ill and 156.

and the engines Nos. 258 and 259. They were not running very fast at the time or the accident would have been more serious than it was. The smash-up occurred near a curve and no one seoms able to say what the exact cause was. Both engines, which are large four driver consolidation locomotives, were considerably torn up, but not permanently disabled.

None of the trainmen were hurt as all esoaped by jumping or otherwise. The wrecking car was sent out and the track soon cleared. Little delay was caused. The two broken engines will be able to take the road in a few days. THE HEMINGWAY CASES, A Motion for a Contlnnanee Argued and I Befnacd.

Without a previous knowl edge ot the soil whenoe has sprung all these marvelous blossoms of a human intellect it is quite natural that the first question should be whether this precocity but presages an ultimate fiasco, or work stronger than any that this century has yet known.

Lionized as a young man can be only in a society which constantly craves a new sensation for its dulled apetite, courted with a persistency which must prove more nattering tnan wnoiesome at tne age of twenty-four, it will not be at all surprising if Mr. Kipling has startled the world tbis year only to fall by the way in the end.

The Advertises on Tuesday, in a Short paragraph, characterized aa editorial in Sunday's Age-Herald as a sort of a Maro Antony oration. The thrust was well aimed, for it has gona to the quick. Our Birmingham contemporary squirmad and writhed all over th9 space of a column yesterday. With its usual insincerity it did not pull at the shaft that pierced it, but snapped and gnawed at another, hoping thereby to mislead on-lookers aud to get undeserved sympathy.

It makes a great fuss about an incidental quotation from The Birmingham Mews, which called it "a inch tariff paper." Instead of honoring The News with soaio of its choice names, it tried to ridicule The Adveb-tisek as an "ignorant, guarrilious old granny." Sj far as being is concerned, whether upoa the tariff or any other political question, it is very evident that Tnz Advertises knew eaoug'i to bo indirectly instrumental in bribing around the changj of front of The Agc-IIorald upon that aud other later Issues. If iho Birmingham journalistic truckUtr is no ordialiy with the party" on tin tariff issue, it is a recent thing, brought a'ooat mainly by the strong anti-protectiou sentiments of tho masses of Alabama. The Ad- yertisss does not think it wide of the truth to say that it has had much to do with educating tho Alabama public into its right thinking on that subject, aud in this right teaching, this paper has for years been opposed by The Ago-Iierald and its predecessors. If The Advertiser is ignorant, what is The Age-Herald, which to-day announces itself to be "cordially" in sympathy with those views on the leading issue of the any which this paper has held for years? However, The Advertiser is not merely an "ignorant," but a "guerrilous old granny." At llrst glance we thought this was meant to be "querulous," but on reflection it is evident that our Birmingham Solomon has coined a new word to express the idea of warlike. It must have had in mind "Grandma's" attitude in the State canvass for the last few' months, the result of which has also shown bow ignorant and foolish she was.

Of coarse, it galls The Age-Herald to be compelled to follow the lead of a silly, aggressive old granny like The Advertises, not only on national issues like the tariff, but on State questions. It is very degrading and unfortunate, and we sincerely pity our foontempor ary. Bat it is tho way of life. Provi dence has always chosen the weak things of this world to oonfound the mighty. The Age-Herald had as well to accept the situation philosophically and begin to venerate in stead of kicking and calling her dis respectful names.

Its present course appears not only unseemly to.the Ala bama public, but really laughable. The more it kicks against the pricks, the mors people laugh. At the State Bankers' Association to meet at Monte Sano on July 2d, Messrs. R. Goldthwaite and A.
