Batesville May Lose Harbor.
Washington, D. C., July 22.—
Several weeks ago at the request
of a large number of citizens of
Batesville, Arkansas, Senator
Joe Robinson filed a petition set
ting forth the danger of three
posible changes of the current
in White river near Batesville,
asking if any funds are availa
ble for such purpose, and re
questing that speedy action be
taken by the war department to
anticipate and prevent this dan
ger.
Senator Robinson has just re
ceived information from the wrar
department that Captain Put
nam, district engineer in charge,
has made a survey of the situa
tion and reports that there ’ is
no danger of any serious condi
tion arising suddenly or in the
near future as to two of the
changes feared by the people of
Batesville, but there is great
danger of the loss of the har
bor at Batesville by the caving
of the head of
that certain work . slar>dj
to maintain the hart„>
The war departm
that such work leP<
within the
project of improvement ^
there are no fuilds '«J«
the work specified by h kfe|
<*sary. It will Jh
quire legislation *»• r °re
authorize imm-ove^0”***1
Senator Robinson wil?8 *
prepare and introduce
that purpose. a ^
However, it is „ot „k
the measure can he "
during the present t***
is limitinug its work chip?
the tariff and currency t?
will be referred to the Com,
Committee, of which c ”
