en permission to recruit another at
his home town. Both companies will
be equipped by the state, and after
organization may be admitted to th
guard.
Orders were also issued for the for
mation of a signal corps and en
gineers' corps at Fremont and two ad
ditional sections of artillery, the latter
probably at Plattsmouth and' Grand
Island, though the location is still un
determined. This activity in the Nebraska Na
tional guard has caused many to be
lieve that a third regiment is to be
organized, but General Colby says
there is no ground for that belief, as
the independent companies, do not in
dicate a new regiment. He says the
matter of organizing a third regimenj
is undetermined.
The formation of "two additional sec
tions of artillery will necessitate more
guns, as each section is supposed to
have two guns. General Colby has
taken steps to secure four new model
breech-loading cannon, together with
harness and equipment.
MANY WANT BOOKS TO READ
Applications Are Keeelved Dally by State
Library I'omniluloa.
LINCOLN, Neb., Dec. 2. Applica
tions for sets of books are being re
ceived by the State Library commis
sion at the state house. Secretary
Bullock, who will have immediate
charge of the distribution, is making
the preliminary arrangements for the
circulation and expects to have the
system in full operation within the
next few weeks. The applications so
far received are from Blair, German
town, Harvard, Talmage, Syracuse,
Loup City, Alexandria, Douglas, Par
dum, Kenesaw, Fairmont, Oak pre
cinqt and Osceola.
The commission has aprpoximately
11,200 available for the purchase of
books. This money, it is estimated,
will buy over 1,400 books. About one
third of the-books in each set will
be of the juvenile class and a ma
jority of the balance will come under
the general classification of fiction. It
is the desire cf the commission to
have each large town or city which
is a beneficiary of the traveling li
brary system make a small donation
for the purchase of new books. It is
believed that in this way the pur
chase fund will be greatly increased.

uating circumstances. Sentence has
not yet been pronounced.

that saved a serious wreck. The stock

OAS A WARLIKE L

The Colombian Government Terminate
Relations With Venezuela.
ACTION IS VIEWED WITH GRAVITY
Withdrawal of Minister Rico Last Angus
Is Cause of the Breach Foreign Debt
Embarrasses Venezuela What Ger
many's Demands Indicate.
WASHINGTON, Nov. SO. The Stat'
department has received confirmation
of the notification of the Colombian
government to Venezuela that it has
terminated diplomatic relations. This
came in the shape of a cablegram
from Minister Hart. This action is
the result of the hasty withdrawa'.
last August from the Venezuelan cap
ital of Dr. Rico, the Colombian min
ister there.
Such a breach does not necessarily
mean war, though undoubtedly it is
a step in that direction. Venezuela
has had several affairs of this kind,
some of the European nations with
drawing their representatives from
Caracas for long terms, and only a
year and a half ago our own gov
ernment was obliged to give Minister
Loomis an indefinite leave of absence
from Caracas as a warning to Vene
zuela of our dissatisfaction with it3
attitude in the controversy growing
out of the asphalt dispute.
It is said that manifestations of
foreign disapproval have had very lit
tle influence upon the Venezuelan
government. It is a significant fact
that the breach with Colombia has
been created at the moment when Ger
many is considering the adoption of
compulsory measures to secure the
payment by the Venezuelan govern
ment of a very high financial liability
to German citizens.
It is supposed here that President
Castro i3 proceeding under the the
ory that the application of the Mon
roe doctrine would protect him from
unitive action by Germany, but the
impression among officials here is that
this belief is not well founded.
Some of the reports reaching here
show there is apprehension on the
part of some of the Colombians on the
isthmus, including men of consider
able influence, as to the duration of
the stay of American marines. It has
come to the knowledge of officials
here that many wild rumors have been
circulated on the Isthmus as to the
extent of the trouble that the United
States forces, having once landed,
would not be withdrawn.
These reports have led to inquiries
between Washington and Panama,
bringing out responses that the Amer
ican occupation was wholly imagina
tive and that the most definite and
positive assurances had been given
that immediately on the fulfillment
of this government's obligation to
keep open the traffic, our forces would
be debarked, and all authority would
be terminated. This purpose of the
authorities has been made known on
the isthmus and has served to allay
the fears caused by reports of Amer
ican occupation.
With the res'oration of order and
open traffic on the isthmus of Pan
ama it is expected that the War de
partment will be enabled. to withdraw
some of the United States warships
now on duty in that vicinity, and
it is probable that one ship will be
withdrawn on either side.

THE LIVE STOCK MARKET.
Latest Quotations From Sooth Omaha
and Kansas City.
SOUTH OiTAHA.
Cattle Receipts of cattle were fairly
liberal, but the quality of the ofterinK
was not vry good. Good to choice corn
fed Bteerf In particular were scarce and
In reality IJiere were no finished cattle on
the market. The better grades of corn
fed steers did not sell so much different
from yesterday, but aside from those the
market was rather slow and In a good
many cases sales looked a little lower
than the same kind of cattle sold for yes
terday. The trade lacked the snap and
firmness that has characterized It of late.
The cow market was very uneven. In
some cases sales were made that were
fully steady, while in other Instances cat
tle sold fully a dime lower. There was an
active demand for corn-fed bulls at
steady prices, but the thin and common
kinds were neglected. Veal calves sold at
steady prices, and so also did stags. There
.was an active demand for stockt-rs and
feeders. Western range steers brought
close to steady prices where the qxiality
was good, but common kinds were neg
lected. Hogs There was an enormous run of
hogs at all market points and as a refult
there was a break in prices. In view of
the liberal receipts packers did not have
to hurry about filling their orders. They
did not want to pay over $3.90 for the lH't
grades, and as sellers were asking more
money few loads changed hands until the
morning was well advanced. When Fell
ers finally did cut loose It was found that
the heavyweights were selling rln'it
around $5.90, and a few solJ from that
up to $6,00, with the medium weights
bringing about $5.83. Light hogs sold from

charge made against him, it is a sub

the court holds that the practice of
osteopathy is the practice cf medicine
and that it will be necessary for os--teopaths
to be examined the same as
the doctors of any other school.
