Death of Mr. Charles Walker Yesterday-—The Burial Occurred Today, Had Been a Resid ical For Forty-c Leayes a Family, e Years Mr. Charles Walker, the well known carpenter, died of cancer at his home, 1720 Broad street, yester- ness. The deceased was one of the best known river carpenters in the city, having resided here since ’56, and having been on the Tennessee river boats for about twelve years. The deceased was born in Petersburg, Va., on October 18, 1848, and was and will resort to armed intervention without delay. Spain will be given a brief but sufficient time to evacuate Cuba, and upon her failure to com- ply with the demand, hostilities will begin.” MOVEMENTS OF THE NAVY, The plan of the naval department upon the outbreak of hostilities is to send the flying squadron to Porto Rico, which will be blockaded and bombarded. The big guns of the battleship Massachusetts will be used for reducing the fortifications at San Juan, after which the Massachusetts will be exchanged for the fleeter cruise er New York, and the flying squad- ron, which will also include the crvis+ ers New Orleans and San Francisco, willcross the Atlantic and destroy any Spanish fleets it encounters, The Key West squadron, which ex- pected to proceed to Havana on the outbreak of hostilities, will be com. pelled to change its‘plans on account of the ordering South of the army, as the squadron will now have to act in conjunction with the military arm in providing a place for occupation. Already regiments ure under way for the mobilization of the army in the South. By tomorrow it is expected therefore 49 years old. He married adaughter of the late ex-Marsbal Sam Faller, and leaves besides a fe one child, to mourn his loss, In addition he leaves two brothers here, Messrs, J.

Telephone and telegraph license and taxes will also be discussed. The gravel ordi- nance, as amended, will come up for second passage, ‘The first ordinance provided for screened gravel on the streets, and it was amended by pre- scribing the manner of screening it, at the suggestion of Mayor Lang. It 1s understood that Mr. Eades, of the street committee, is opposed to the amendment. An ordinance will be introduced to change the rental of city poles. The rent has heretofore been 50 cents for each pole, and on account of the orbitant price, many poles have been panies that would otherwise use the city’s po Several have agreed to rent city poles and take up their own if the rents are changed to 25 cents per pole.

LOW WATER Is What the River Mer —Damage in Bottom uit 11:30 being well ar Next Ants. The next trouble of the rivermen will be low water. The river is very unaccommodating and as a genera rule is either too bigh or too low suit the steamboatmen, Only about a week ago the general wish was for 2 fall. Now complaints are already coming from Pittsburg that the water is falling so rapidly that much of the coal intended for southern points may not be ableto get away. Of course there is no danger at present, when the river begins to full it falls rapidly and there is now no telling to day morning, after a lingering ijl-] when steamers may lve inconvenienced | by low water, The gauge at this port this morn- ing showed a stage of 21.6 feet with the water receding rapidly. The weather is warm and clear. Farmers ia the bottoms say over- flows are no longer beneficial to their land, The reason is that the for- ests are being cleared away so rapid- ly that the sediment deposited by an overflow contains no richness and is a detriment instead of an advantage to farm land, COURT AT MURRAY.
