CAE ORDER FROM BOARD
COMES TO OMAHA TO LEAR$
TO BE A NURSE. -..
From a Staff CorreiponiUnt.)
Lincoln. Sept. 30. (Special.)
Some of the occupants of the state
superintendent's office were given a
fright again this morning over the
condition of the southeast corner of
the capitol, which they are afraid may
collapsn. It was reported that the
walls had settled more Friday night,
cracking the plate glass in one of the
windows and throwing State En
gineer Johnson's plumb line out an
inch to the west.
Investigation showed the window
had been cracked for some time, but
recent settling had made it more no
ticeable. Little significance was at
tached to the change in the plumb line
by the stale engineer when it was
learned that one of the supports had
been removed and this was respon
sible for the change...
Moritx Ii Uneasy.
- R, D. Moritz of the educational de
partment called on Governor More
head and Land Commissioner licck
mann, whom he urged to have the
southeast section of the building con
demned. He thought the state de-
?artment should move out of the of.
ices. The officials directed State En
gineer Johnson to make another ex
amination and he declared there was
no grave reason for fear it the pres
enr time. , '
' The investigation, however, revealed
that the capitol is in bad condition.
Some of tire heavy joists and beams
of the roof havt been rotting, allow
