FIND ANOTHeFfUSION GRAFT
Olllcliiln Who Drew the Miliary hot Did
.Not Do the Work I3peeteil
of Tlieiu.
LINCOLN, Murch C (Special.) The
manner In which the late fusion adminis
tration Illched from tho taxpayers and
gathered In tho loavos nnd fishes is gradu
ally coming to light. The latent discovery
Is in the state auditing department, where
it bad been found that at least ono man had
his imino carried on tho pny roll at $1,203
per year es county trensury examiner, but
devoted much, If not all, of his tlmo to the
examination of Insurance companies, thus
not only drawing double pay, but neglecting
to do what ho was paid for doing.
Tho law requires that county treasuries
shall bo examined nt least every two years,
ami tho state auditor Is empowered to ap
point two individuals to perform that duty.
Investigation reveals tho fact that this part
of tho public service during Auditor Cor
nell's lust term wns sadly neglected, muuy
of tho county treasuries in iho state not
having t:e2ii examined In tho last three
years, nnd the system hnvlng degenerated
Into n completo fnrce.
Tho secret of thU neglect lies In tho fact
that tho examiners nra paid n salary of
$1,200 per year, whether they work or nut,
and as no fees nro allowed and as fees of
from ffi to 10 per day anil expenses tiro
allowed Insurance exunilners, tha recreant
officials found it more profitable to neglect
their specific dutlrB nnd forage upon in
surance companies,
Thcro lo documentary evidence In (nu
auditing derartmeut that ouo J. A. STmpson,
who was u county treasury oxamlner under
Auditor Cornell,- drew his s.ijary regularly
ns 'biicb, yet neglected that part of his
duties- nnd devoted much of his tlmo to In
surunco examination, for which ho received
fees of from $5 to f 10 per day and expenses.

WASHINGTON. March C Again today
Vlco President Hoosevclt was the central
figure on tlio opening proceedings of the
senate. When he appeared nt his desk to
call tho scnato to order a wave nf npplauce
swept over tho thronged galleries.
Ho evidently was Impatient nt the demon
stration and sharply tapping his desk with
tho gavel, Warned the spectators that repe
tition of the applause would result In an
order to clear the galleries.
After a brief debate the amendment to
the rules of the senate placing u limit on
tho duration of debate, offered yesterday
by Mr. Plott of Connecticut was referred
to tho commltteo on rulca. The debato
brought forth the fact that no lntcutlon
exists with the proponent of the amend
ment to urgo Its discussion at tho present
extraordinary session.
Tho chaplain In his Invocation referred
with deep pathos to the sorrow which has
fallen upon tho Junior senator from Ala-
bamn (Mr. Pcttus) nnd his wife. In the death
of their only son.
Plntt Calls' I i Aineiiiliiientj
Mr. Piatt of Connecticut (hen called up
the amendment lo the rules of which he
gave notice yesterday, relating to the lim
itation of debate.
After the journal wns read Mr. Teller of
Colorado Inquired of Mr. Plntt whether ho
expected to secure action upon tho nmend
mcut nt the present extraordinary session,
Mrr Plntt replied thnt ho did not desire to
discuss tho proposed amendment nt the
present time. He wished to have tho
amendment referred to tho commltteo on
rules,, but ho doubted very much whether
tbo commltteo on rules could consider It
so fully ns to cnnble the sonntu to take
action upon It nt this session. Ho had
felt, he said, that the senntc ought to
chnngo Its rules nud he had thought that
the proper tlmo to Introduce his proposi
tion was nt tho beginning of a new session
of congress.
Ho added that ho would be glad to huvo
action upon tho amendment ut this ses
sion, hut ho did uot suppose It could be
had. He desired that the amendment be
referred to tho committee on rules, In order
that thn commltteo might have opportunity
to consider It during tho recess.
"I hope," said he In conclusion, "Hint
some fair amendment to the rules may be
dcvl3od by which thcro can be n reasonable
(not an unreasonable) limit plnced on de
bate." (ior to t'oinnilttee on Hole.
Mr. Teller said he had no wish to enter
objection to the reference of the amend
ment to the commltteo on rules, That was
tho proper placo for It. Ho Inquired, how
ever, whether thero was any expectation on
the part of the majority to do anything more
during tlio preiiont session than executive
business. Tending n answer to thnt ques
tion, Vlco President Hoosevclt announced
In n low but distinct tone that tho pro
posed amendment would be referred In tho
nbeenco of objection to tho commltteo on
rules.
Responding to tho inquiry of Mr. Tollor,
Mr. Halo of Maine, disclaiming any at
tempt to speaksfor anybody but hlmBelf,
said tho extraordinary session had boen
called for the,- transaction of purely cxecu-
tlvo business. Ho did not supposo the
scuato would bo kept lu session many days
or bo called upon to consider any other
subjects than purely oxecutlvo business.
Mr, Teller submitted somo brief com
ments upon tbo transaction of business at
extraordinary sessions of tho senate, hold
ing that tho body had a perfect right, In
accordance with precedents, to do any
thing It could do In transaction of business.
Mr. Plntt, speaking for himself alone, ex
pressed tho opinion that It would not bo
wise to enter upon the transaction of gen
eral legislative business at this extraordi
nary session. It would not be the part of
wisdom to attend to more thnn executive
business.
Mnmun 'lii u n ilrrn Wnr.
Mr. Morgan, who yesterday offered n

A mother writes, saying: "Our children
aro all so much better and stronger than
they havo ever been since we made a
change In the character of tho food. Wo
havo quit using potatoes three times a
day with coffee and so much meat. Now
wo give the llttlo folks some fruit, either
fresh, stewed, or canned, some Oram-
Nuts with cream, occasionally some soft
bulled eggs, and some l'ostum Food Coffee

It would be h)ird to reallzo the change lu

FRED METZ, SR., IS DEAD
3ti(l Comes nt 1'lic Minute lnt Three
This Mnrnlnir, After it I , I ti -RerliiK
lllnes,
Fred Metz, sr., died nt Mvo minutes past
3 o'clock this morning, after a lingering
Illness.
Frederick Metz, sr., nchlcvcd success In
llfo by his own pcrsljtent efforts, not hav
ing enjoyed the advantages of wealth and
Influence nt the outset of his business
career. His Immense, business nnd largo
fortune enmo to him only through the hnrd
est kind o"f work nnd'thc strictest applica
tion of his natural nbllltles to tho ac
complishment ot his plans. From a poor
emigrant without n dollar In his pocket he
became, not only a prosperous business
man, but an Influential factor In the up
building of the community lu which he
lived.
Mr. Metz wns born nt Hessel-CasfiCl, Ger
many, In 1S32, and was educated to tho
profession of forester In his native city.
Not taking kindly to his avocation he re-
sohed to seek his fortune in a new business
nud lu a new country, and when ho wns
but 19 years of ago ho set out for America
In a sailing vessel. After being tossed
nbout by the Atlantic waves for sixty-five
days, ho lauded at New Orleans with noth
ing but a counterfeit dollar In his pocket
nnd without knowing Just where or how
to turn for n livelihood. He spent but a
few months In tho Crescent City, during
which ho managed to Ilvo by taking odd
Jobs, und then went to St. Louis, where ho
secured a position as clerk In n dry goods
utora fit a. salary of $8 a month.
In '1857 ho came to Nebraska and en
gaged In tho mercantile business at Hello-
vue with Peter Hartels. remaining there
until 18G2. Mr. Hartels had gone lo Den
ver, Colo., nnd sent word back to his part
ner that riches wero In prospect there. Mr.
Metz hurriedly packed his belongings Into
a two-horso wngon nnd with his own family
and that of Mr. Hartels started overland for
Denver. After spending two years In Colo
rado and not having realized his dreams
of the wealth to bo picked up there, Mr.
Metz decided to return to Nebraska.
Ho had been thrifty. If not thriving, and
when ho arrived In Omaha early In 1SGI ho
had sufficient means to purchase a halt
Interest In a ono-horso brewery. In later
years Mr. Metz always roforred to his first
Omaha venture ns a one-horse browcry for
tho vory good reason that it was operated
with one-horso power at tho tlmo it was
stnrted. His brother Philip was his partner
In the enrly days of the business and It
was their ciiBtom to deliver their product
to local dealers In a wheelbarrow. When
nn order would bo received nt tho brewery
tho goods would bo lifted onto the barrow
nnd ono of tho proprietors would then
wheel It to tho customer without nny seem
ing loss ot dignity.
It was hy such devotion as this to the
details of his business that Frederick Metz
succeeded In gradually building up one ot
tho largest browing concerns west of tho
Missouri river. The firm naino for many
years was Metz Uro, then Metz Pros,
and a tew years ago tho business passed
to the present corporation, known ns tho
Metz Bros, Browing compnny and com
posed of Mr. Metz and his four sons. Al
though tho father was the president of tho
corporation, he has uot taken an active
part In tho business for twelve years.
Although Mr. Metz never sought political
proferment, ho wns sent to the stato scnato
from Douglas county In 1871 nnd again
In 1SS5. In 189(i ho wns elected presidential
elector on tho Hryan ticket nnd wns selected
by bis collengues to carry the vote of tho
stato to Washington.
Mr. Metz was always foremost In public
movements nnd devoted muah of his time
and money to furthering the Interests of
Omalm. His name could ulwaya be found
among subscribers to funds for carrying out
public undertakings nnd ho gavo liberally
to chnrltles ot all kinds.
He was ouo of tho organizers of the
Omaha Turners' society nnd for yenrs took
a most nctlvo part In Its work. Ho also
bolongod to many other stato and local
organizations.
Tho last years of Mr. Metz's llfo were
passed In comfortable retirement and In
tho pleasures afforded by occasional trips
to his old homo In Germany. At tho time
ho was stricken with his last illness ho
wns taking nn actlvo purt In tho organiza
tion ot the Old Settlers' Association of
Omaha.
Mr. Metz was married lu 1855 to Louisa
Heato Cesser in St. Louis, Sho was born
and reared thero and departed this llfo In
1872, leaving a family of flvo sous and two
daughters, Charles, Frederick, Tony, Arthur,
Louis, Minute and Kstclle. In 1877 hu
mnrrlcd Adelo Wassmer, who wns born In
Holsteln, Germany, and reared In Nebraska.
They had a family of ono son and one
daughter, Herman and Louisa,
