Grand Island The Cousins Whole
sale Lumber company's yard and of
fices were destroyed by fire here
Tuesday night, with a loss estimated
by O. G. Cousins, the manager, at
approximately $225,000. The cause
i" the blaze was not determined late
tonight.
The lumber yard building was ap
proximately 477 feet by ISO feet and
contnine 1 a stock equal to that of
many of the larger yards in the mid
dle west. The fire was discovered
walk tearly n the evening by Mr. Cousins,
V..i ! who was working in the ottice.
Cousins said he turned in the
alarm, and the fire had spread so
swiftly that he was unable to save
anything after he had called for help.
A change in the wind averted a more
serious fire, and aided firemen in
fighting the flames from three largo
1 gasoline tanks after catwaiks on the
! tanks were in flames.
Roofs of the Christian church and
i several houses, some of them blocks
i from the lumber yard, caught fire
j but the blazes were extinguished
without material damage. The flames
lighted up a large area, and fire
men believed the ruin ; would smoul
der for a day or more, rltho a num
ber of lines of bos..- kept water
streaming on the ember.'.
Trains were delayed for some time
as the flames continued to leap over
the adjoining right cf way of the
Union Pacific system. Tics in the
roadbed cauglit fire and three sets of
tracks were warped into fantastic
curves and bulged by the intense
heat.
Trains were delayed for more than
an hour. After the fire was in check
so that the trains might pass, it was
necessary to replace rails in order

R. D. Stine, the merchant, with
the family, consisting of the good
wife and son, George, were over to
Plattsmouth on last Sunday where
they attended the Ritz theater which
was showing the famous play "East
Lynne" which they enjoyed very
much.
Ottawa Establishment of a super
bank which would buy and control
all the gold and silver resources of
the British empire, possibly also
those of the United States, was advo
cated by J. F. Darling, director of the
British Midland bank and noted Bri
tish authority on currency.
Under his plan, to which he be
lieves the United States would find
it unprofitable not to subscribe, Mr.
Darling said there should be no diffi
culty in restoring stiver and keeping
it In its true comparative parity with
gold. He asserted the rehabilitation
of silver was of immediate import
ance, "because as I sec it we are
drafting rapidly toward economic
chaos."
The sunerbank, binding
me financial structures of the en
tire British commonwealth of na
tions, would establish the ratio of
silver to gold at 20 to 1, which he
said "approximates to the exchange
value of the Indian rupee."
Mrs. F. G. Egei! berger of this city,

London Saturday The Daily Ex
press saya Philip Snowden is con
templating an early resignation as
chancellor of the exchequer, owing
to illness, and may be created a peer.
The paper says Snowdcn's illness is
so serious he is unlikely to be able
to continue his duties as chancellor
and he himself has been the first to
realize It.
The government, however, i.s loath
to lose his services and it is under
stood Prime Minister MacDonald,
with a view of easing Snowden's pol
itical burdens, will recommend that
the king confer the peerage. Snow
den's political views, the paper adds,
are Bach that under ordinary circum
stances he would not be likely to
consent to enter the upper house,
but the laborites are desirious of in
creasing their representation in the
bouse of lord3. and his presence there
would arid immensely to their pres
tige and debating power.
In opposition to such a course.
Meanwhile, President Hoover an
nounced there had been 3,551 more
departures of aliens than arrivals
during each of the past three months.
He said Acting Secretary White of
the labor department had informed
him these departures were of "large
importance" in the labor situation.
