Wat'r is pouring through a crawfish hole 18 to 2u Inches ! in diameter near the base of the levee and the fear is that if the :un-aroun 1 1 cannot be built the weakened levee will give away. Five hundred men arc at the scrap and four rows of cribbing, the longest 2?>o feet, have boon start- ' erl under t4'ie direction of President , Leake, of the levee board. State Engineer Lewis and the planters. i A nm ".-box was built to the rear of , the cribbing. An element of danger ( is the softened condition of the levee I due to the long period that the river 1 has stood against it. A break at this voint would be dangerous, putting the 51 ississippi Valley road out of condition. flooding hundreds of acres of cotton land and truck farms in the new river section an ! submerging thou &ands cf acres of valuable sugar lands In the Ponchartrain district. The work at H.vmolia crevasse was continued today with an increased force of men, but it will be several days before it can be determined whether the renewed effort to close the crevasse will be successful.

The two crevasiscs on the lower I.aKourche are being closed. The river here is 19.0 feet. MANUFACTURERS MEET. National Association Convenes at New Orleans?Large Attendance. New Orleans, April 14.?
