WASHINGTON, March l.-(Speclal Teh
gram.) Senators Millard and Burkett made
every effort today to Induce the State de
partment to appoint Max Baehr to serve
at some consulate other than Clenfuegos,
Cuba, If It could not consistently withdraw
the nomination of Mr. Thompson of Illi
nois for that place. The senators called on
the president and stated they were greatly
surprised at the action taken by the State
department In removing Mr. Baehr without
even so much as permitting him to re
sign.
The president said that Nebraska had
more than Its quota of consular officers,
save her from the consequences of her
rash act.
"If he is a friend at all, he ought most
of all, to be one when I am In trouble,"
she said. "I shall never marry hlra
now."
KNOCKED DOWN BY RUNAWAY
Wyoming? Man Badly Braised ae Re

Street.
:- J. 1 Becker, a stockman from Kearney;
was knocked down by a runaway horse at
the corner of Twelfth and Farnam streets at
5:45 last evening. Becker received bruises
about the head and right side, but was not
seriously Injured.
! The horse belonged to Dr. Walker and
was being taken to the doctor's office by
Willie Gerhard, a lS-y ear-old lad, from the
stable where the horse is kept. On the way
to the doctor's office the horse became
scared at something and got beyond the
boy's .control. Becker went to cross Far
nam atrect at Twelfth, not seeing the fast
coming horse, and Just after stepping oft
the curb was struck by the horse and
thrown to the pavement. At the same time
the boy was thrown from the buggy and
the horse broke loose from the buggy and
continued on its way down Farnam street

to even mat tors up picked up an empty beer
bottle which was nnndv and struck An

these men regard the "straining at the
gnat and swallowing the camel" policy as
'very detrimental to thalr cause. They go
further and charge that i this is but the
manifestation of the general scheme of
the railroads to seek to divert attention
of the .legislators and their constituents
from the main Issue and fix it on some sub
ject of leas magnitude and importance,
even though It may be the bridge matters,
which of course are recognised as deserv
ing of serious consideration.
Those members who really want to ful
fill their pledges to the people and enact
salutary railroad ' laws are provoked at
the delay of oertaln hills contemplating this
..purpose. .. They have not yet beard any
outcry from Lancaster county against th s
artful system of procrastination.

After having run the gauntlet of both
houses, been defeated once and resurrected,
S. F. S, the county ,-. engineer bill, has
Anally been declared invalid and Governor
Mickey . has refused to sign It. The bill
did not contain a repealing clause and for
that reasons It was Vetoed by the governor.
Tomorrow,, however, he will make a per
sonal request of the legislature to permit
the introduction of a similar measure. The
bill makes the county surveyors of Doug

gineers to these two counties.
