The Nebraska City Newssays: From
M. M. Straub of Avoca, who was in
the city on Monday, we learn of an ac
cident on the rarm ot Floyd Harshman,
to miles east of Avoca and near the
Otoe county line, on last Friday after
noon, which will cost the young man
the loss of one arm and may result in
tlie loss of his life. In any event be
will be maimed lor life. The un
fortunate young man's name is Henry
Weskamp. son of Joseph Weskamp,
who resides at Avoca. The young
man was feeding the machine and in
some way his left hand was caught and
drawn into the machine, and before
any one could realize it or release him
the arm half way up to the elbow had
been drawn Into the knives and cut
to pieces. There was nothing to be
f ur.d of the part of the arm that went
into the machine, save his thumb nail
with a small piece of flesh, so tine was
the same ground up The flow of
blood was stopped and the young man
taken to Wei-ping Water, where the
arm was amputated at the elbow.
This is the second accident of this
kind that has occurred in Cass county
this winter, and in both cases the
victims lost their arm. The young
man stood the shock incident to the
operation and unless blood poison sets
in be will recover.
A' special in the Lincoln Evening
News from Eagle says: John Pump
while working around a corn shredder
pn the Mike Malone place on Tuesday
had his band caught in the n.achine.
It was immediately pulled into the
roller and torn off above the . wrist.
Medical aid was summoned, and he
will probably live. .

WASHINGTON LETTER.
(From Our Regular Correspondent)
Washington, D. Cv, Jan. 14, 1902.
That is an ideal country in which the
least injury to the meanest citizen is
an injury to all." said Representative
Chas. R. Schirm, of Maryland, in ex
planation of what Is known as his
'tablet bill". Appreciating that
every bill which Speaker Henderson
could refer to the committee on naval
affairs, and which was in any way
ravorable to Admiral Schley would be
permitted to "die in committee,"' Mr.
Schirm has introduced a bill provid
ing for the erection in conspicuous
places in the capitol, of six bronze
tablets four by four feet. These
tablets are to commemoiate the naval
victories of the United States over
foreign foes, and each is to bear the
name of but one officer and that the
name of the officer in command. The
last tablet is to commemorate the
battle of Santiago and bear the inscri p
tion "Winfield Scott Schley, com
mander." This bill the speaker was
obliged to refer to the library com
mittee, from which Mr. Schirm hopes
to secure Its favorable report.
Mr. William Sulzer, democratic
representative from Jfew York City,
introduced a bill in the house which
he believes will attract wide attention.
By it the secretary of tlie treasury is
instructed to deposit the surplus funds
of the treasury in national banks hav
ing a capital stock of $."00.000 and a
urplus of $500,000 on condition thai
uch banks apply for the deposits and
that they pay to the United Stales
interest at the rate of two per cent on
such deposits, the deposit of the
United States In no case to exceed the
aggregate or the capital and surplus
of the hank and to constitute a first
lien on the assets of the bank.
Speaking on this subject Mr. Sulzei
said: "At the present time a few
lavored banks, perhaps fourteen in
number, are made the depositaries ol
the surplus funds in the treasury.
mis gives to them an unfair and a
prejudical advantage in the control ot
the money market. By the provisions
of my bill all of the banks will have
an opportunity to profit by the
treasury surplus, the government will
receive interest on Its deposits and in
the event of a stringent money market
such deposits will afford immediate
relief. Moreover, there will be
nothing to fear from the possession by
the government of a surplus of any
magnitude as this measure will serve
to keep the money in circulation, for
wherever there is a demand for money
great enough to raise the rate of
interest to three per cent or more
there will the treasury surplus flow."
I am creditably advised that the
democrats in the senate are preparing
to force the majority to make a
definite statement of their policy in
regard to Cuba. So far the republicans
have attempted to escape any frank
statement of their policy and so be
prepared to retreat from whatever
position they may have determined
upon in the light of any new develop
ments which may take place. They
have not taken their democratic
colleagues into their confidence and
the latter believe they nave a rignt to
know what the administration and
the republican majority are con
templatlng. Senator Lodge, on behalf
of the president, is actively prosecut
ing his campaign for reciprocity on
t.ie broadest plane but he is being
opposed by the high protectionists.
Senator Piatt, of Connecticut, chair
man or the committee on cuoan
relations, is unqualifiedly opposed to
any concessions to Cuba's needs, as is
Representative Payne, chairman of
tlie ways and means committee of the
house, but General Grosvenor, whose
Influence in the house is extensive
and who prior to the holiday recess
was a staunch supporterof Mr Payne s
views, has been told some very plain
truths by his Ohio constituents and
has returned almost prepared to lend
his assistance to Senator Lodge. The
junior senator, from Massachusetts
has the warm support of Senator
Mason of Illinois who said, "We would
be making a terrible mistake if we
were to deny reciprocity to Cuba but
we wont do It." It is believed, too,
that he has the support of Senator
Cullom who seems to have reciprocal
leanings but who is too politic to
express himseir strongly on any
subject for fear of making an enemy,
something the senior senator from
Illinois never maices if he can help it.
It is now believed that the senate
committee on relations with the
I'hilippines will report the Philipp ne
tariff bill with but few changes-, and
the democrats in the senate are prepar
ing to make a vigorous onslaught on
the measure. They appreciate, of
course, that tuey are in too great
miuority to effect any material change
but they regard it as a matter of duty
to make as vigorous a protest as possi
able. There Is no lack of political or of
social lions in Washington but when a
man comes from France with an inter
oceanic canal in his pocket and In
volving a forty million dollar deal, he
is worth seeing. Your correspondent,
therefore, armed with an introduction
from the French embassy, called upon
Mr. Lampre at bis rooms in the new
Willard. The Panama canal rep
resentative is a typical Frenchman
about forty years old, of slight build,
with a waxed mustache a la Napoleon
III. He was sufficiently acquainted
with the English language to be able
to say with a pronounced accent,
'You American Journalists are surely
early birds," and he was sufficiently
diplomatic and reticent to avoid say
ing anything much about the canal.
By a system of Indirect questioning,
certain information was elicited and
there is no doubt that be is duly ac
credited both by the company and his

L ampre has made no effort to see any
one on the subject except Admiral
Walker. This appears to be on the ac
count of Admiral Walker's known fair
ness and Impartiality with reference
to the selection of a canal route and
also on account of his great courtesy
to his predecessor, M. Hutin, who is
alleged to have offered the same pro
perty for the sum of $109,000,000.

502 Main Street
Postmasters Meet In Plattsmouth.
Cass county postmasters act? in
session here on Wednesday, mapping
out routes for the rural delivery
system that will soon be Inaugurated
throughout the county. The meeting
did not result in any definite plan be
ing agreed upon, and another meeting
will be held at Weeping Water In the
near future. Some of the postmasters,
notably those who are Interested in
selling peanuts, newspapers, etc., in
their offices, are not very heartily In
favor of the free delivery system as It
would undoubtedly seriously affect
their business interests by reason of
the fact that the patrons of their
offices would no longer have to call for
their mail but would have it delivered
at their houses on the farm. But
thisobjectlou will hae no effect what
ever on the adoption of the system In
Cass county, as Congressman Burkett
has already arranged for a more com
plete and thorough system for Cass
county than is now in use in any county
in tbe west.
