Commanding officers, ordnance sergeants and others in charge of fortifications, or any means of lake or coast defense, will exercise great carein acting upon applications to visit the works, and will grant such only ag may be warranted for good and sufficient military reasons.

From the Inter Ocean. The yearly report of the New York board of city magistrates con- firms the estimates of sociologists throughout the country, Crime during the last ten years has devel- oped in excess of the growth of pop- ulation, Reduced to a nicety, the increase of population in New York has been thirty-three and one-third per cent. during the past ten years, and the increase of the number of persons arrested aud brought to trial has been 50 per cent; if the multitude of cases in which ‘‘no ar rests’? were reported be added, the increase of criminal persons, probab- ly, will be nearer 100 than 50 per cent. In Chicago the increase of population is far greater than that of New York ; it would be interesting to know with exactness what the in- crease of crime has been. It isin the more serious crimes that the increase is most notable. While the total mmcrease is 50 per cvent., the percentage of felonies on on the increase is 90. In 1886 the number of persons charged with fel- sind ey the number was 7,031. ‘The increase of woman felons kept pace with that of the men, A like feature is notice- able in Chicago, Illinois; the number of robberies by violence is largely om the increase, and it is notable that a large pro- portion of these crimes are perpe- trated by young persons, The youth who formerly was a pickpocket now is afootpad or a burglar. The wo- men charged with felonies are for the most partof the class that use bar- lotry as & mask for theft, yet not few- er than sixteen women were arrested and tried as burglars in New York during the past year. ‘The increase of suicide keeps pace with that of crime; in 1886 no more than twenty-five women attempted suicide in New York; in 1896 the number was seventy-two; sixty-four men made such attempts in 1886,and 147 in 1896. These figures do not apply to accomplished suicides, but only to such attemps as failed of their purpose and resulted in the per- sons making them being brought be- fore a magistrate. The crime of murder, though on the increase, is not so alarmingly out of proportion to the growth of popu- lation as are the lesser felonies. — In 1886 the number of women charged with homicide was eight, and the number of men 106; in 1896 charges were preferred against ten women and 168 men. These figures are sadly suggestive of a failure in our scheme of educa- tion. ‘The spread of a mere secular education does not work a diminu- tion of crime. ‘*The moral essence’’ is not sufficiently strong in our treat- ment of youth.

The towboat R. A. Speed arrived here from Mound City yesterday af- ternoon and left on her way up the Tennessee this morning with three empties in tow which she will bring out loaded with ties. The heading factory at Stiles are now greatly in need of a boat and barges to get their heading timber that is daily being washed away off the banks by the rising water, but at the last account had not succeeded in securing one. Owing to the high condition of the river the ferry boat, Bettie Owen, only makes two trips aday and both of these are to Brooklyn, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. She cannot land at her regular land- ing place at the Illinois shore. Steamboats as well as barges are now in greatdemand. All the barges that were heretofore tied up at the bank at this place are now in use and tie boats have considerable trouble in securing « sufficient amount of barges to make thelr trips with. ‘The river front is now the favorite place for the sight-seers, ancl it is vis- ited daily by business men, labor- ing men and all classes of men of the city who seem now to take great in- terest in river matters. The topical subject down about the levee now is how much higher the river is going to come? The question can not be answered by any one. Each has his own opinion. The Ohio river is rising quite rapidly at Pittsburg and arkersburg aud falling at Cincinn: Louisville and Evansville, but continues to rise at Paducah, The Cumberland at Nashville is falling rapidly, and the Tennessee is rising shightly at Chat- tanooga aud Johnsonville, but falling another freshet aad thie “big” Bhisety? sippi is rising at St. Louis, Chester and as far down as Memphis. There is now up the Tennessee thousands of railroad ties being sub- metged by the rising water an will probably be lost. ‘Timbermen' are pressing every boat and barge they can secure into use to take the ties, heading and spoke timber to mle quarters. One firm has somewhat over 1,200 cords of heading tinber on the banks and the water is jow several feet upon it, but can’t gf it moved owing to the scarcity) of steamboats and barges. It was thought yesterday thajthe riyer would be on a stand here by to- night, but from reports this moging it seems to have taken a frest ptart ‘and as a result of the recent mbs it is likely to be rising for sever! days yet. Some river men believe t will approximate forty-five feet, ant indi cations are certainly favorable for se of several feet more. The offi- cial gauge registered this morsing at 7 o'clock 43.2 and rising very slowly but gradually, there being arise of six inches in the last twelve hours. Only « few feet of the formerly big stone levee is now visible, the rest being submerged by the murky water of the raging Obio, Lower Court street and Broadway now serve a» the landing places for the steamers. Watchman Evetts of the wharf boats who several weeks ago was kept buisy sparring his charges off ban! every day, iskept as busy now drawing them into bank so that the: stages will be out of the water. Sev- eral piles of plows and other staff left on the levee by some steamer, were nearly submerged this morning, but were moved to a place of safety by Watchman Billy Evetts, COLORED DEPARTMENT.
