    New Program for
Debt and Shipping
Bills Developed
Joint Consideration of Two
Measures Planned—Mo
tion of Norris May
Block Proposal.
-•
Washington, Kcb. 12.—An adminis
tration program providing for Joint
consideration of the shipping bill and
of the British debt settlement meas
ure was developed today in the
senate.
The plan, which is understood to
have received the approval of Presi
dent Harding, was disclosed by Chair
man Jones of the commerce commit
tee, who is in charge of the shipping
bill, after he had failed in another ^
attempt to limit debate on the meas
ure through unanimous consent
agreement. It provides that the sen
ate shall adjourn from day to day,
thereby providing a morning hour
each day during which the debt bill
shall be considered, and after which
the shipping bill Is to come up. In
making known the plan, Senator
Jones further informed the senate
that failing to obtain an agreement
to vote on the shipping bill, he would
seek night sessions beginninng i
■Wednesday.
Arrangements Delayed.
Definite arrangements to put the
plan into effect were deferred as dem- |
ocratic senators said they wished
consult with Senator Heed of Mis- -
sourl, democratic member of the fi
nance committee, who returned to the !
capital after an absence of several
weeks, before formulating their views
with respect to the proposal. Repub-1
lican leaders, however, indicated that ]
they expected to begin operations un- j
rier the plan Tuesday.
Standing In the way of the proposed 1
proceedure, howev^k is a motion -
made by Senator Norris, republican,!
Nebraska, and debated throughout I
most of the session, to begin consider- ^
ation of the constitutional amendment i
recently reported by the agriculture j
committee. This amendment would
provide for direct elertion of presi
dent, for moving up the date of the j
presidential inauguration from March !
4 to the third Monday in January, and ;
for elimination of any session of an 1
old congress after election of a new
congress.
.Amendment Planned.
Senator Norris, in discussing the
amendment, announced he would
move to amend it so as to eliminate 1
the provisions relating Jo the presi
dent and press only the portion re ;
garding the meeting of congress. In
this form it is said to be acceptable j
to republicans generally and it was !
indicated that if Senator Norris pro- j
posed to press it, as he announced to- |
day, It would be approved with little
further debate. If extended discus
sion ensues, however, republican lead
ers In charge of the ship bill probably
will counter with a fnove to lay the
Norris motion on the table.
Meantime, some democratic oppo
nents of the shipping legislation indi
cated they would agree to bring It to
a vote if the administration forces
would accept the Madden amendment,
which was approved by the house
hut eliminated by the senate com
merce committee after President
Harding had Informed Chairman
Jones it would nullify the bill. The
amendment would make grants of
government aid to ship operators con
tingent upon appropriations by con
gress.

' Lacks Art Feel in«[
Museum Director Stresses Art
Commission Need — Busi
ng Distriet “Clustered/’
“Omaha is largely lacking in that
feeling of responsibility which tends
to elevate the standards of art and
advance them for1 the purposes of
civic betterment,” was the statement
of Morris Block, director of the Omaha
Museum of Fine Arts, at a meeting of
Uie Chamber of Commerce commit
tee on art, education and muslm Mon
day.
After outlining the work he has
been doing here during the last two
and a half years, Mr. Block stressed
the value of the exhibition Idea as a
means of reaching and Interesting the
general public in the museum. He said
that, while the Society of Fine Arts
has grown from a small group of
women to a membership of more than
1,000 persons, it is not doing enough
work along the lines for which it was
promoted. He said that the art needs
of Omaha are so great that, under
existing conditions, the society cannot
fiofie to do more than fill a part of
them, this for no other reason than
the limitation of finances.
“The'greatest civic need right now
is an art commission," he derived. He I
also said that, while^the city has many
outlying parks, it has nothing like a
breathing spot in the central portion
of the business district, which he de
scribed as being "badly cluttered." Mr.
Block urged more comfort stations i
and the continuing of Twenty third j
street north so that a vista diselos- i
ing the Joslyn Memorial Art Muslum
might bo opened up.

sarilv mean the opening of hostilities,
would give France a freer hand in
putting an end to the repeated pro
tests of Germany over the alleged
illegality of the French action.
It is considered in these circles that
there is ample ground for declaring
a state of war in these facts:
That according to their stand
point, Germany has practically torn
up the treaty of Versailles and thus i
destroyed the peace status that ex
isted by treaty.
• That the principal political Issue ;
in Germany lately turned upon the :
question whether the treaty should ]
he complied with, and that the com
position of the present government |
shows that tne opposition to compli
ance won.
That finally there Is a resistance
by the highest authorities in the
German government to the appli
cation of the measures provided for
in Article XVIII of the treaty of
.of Versailles.
Germans Angered.
Berlin, Feb. 12.—141)—The note of
the French and Belgian governments
forbidding members of the German
government to enter the Ruhr has
brought forth Indignant comment in
the Berlin newspapers. Vorwuerts,
the socialistic organ, declares that
France,and Belgium are showing the
world that they regard the Ruhr as a
mere "department de la JIuhr."

The .Magnificent Adventure
By EMERSON HOUGH.
(Continued from jeaterdaj.)
CHAPTER IX—(Continued.)
The last cruelty was too much. The
boy began to gulp. "I'm not afraid
to fight, sir, I'd fight any man, but
you—no, I'll not do it! Even stripped,
you're rrly commander still."
"Is that the reason'.’"
"Not all of it. You're weak cap
tain, your wound lias you in a fever.
'Twould not be fair—1 could do ns I
liked with you now. I'll not fight
you I couldn't!" —
"What? you will not obey me as
your officer, and will not fight me
as' a man? Do you want to bo
whipped? Do you want to bo shot?
Do you want to be drummed out of
camp tomorrow morning? By Heav
en, Private Shannon, one of these
choices will be yours!"
Hut something of (he icy silence
of the youth who heard these terrible
words gave pause even to the mad
man that was Meriwether Lewis now.
He halted, his hooked hands extended
for the spring upon his « opponent.
' What is it, boy?“ he whispered at
last. "What have 1 done? What
did I say?” Shannon was sobbing
now, “Captain,” he said, and thrust
a hand into the bosom of his tunic—
"captain, for heaven's sake don't do
that! Don't apologize to trie. I un
derstand. Leave me alone. Here's
the letter. There were six—this is
the last.”
Lewi's strained muscles relaxed. Ills
blazing eyes ofteneel . "Shannon!" he
whispered once more. "What have
I done?”
He took the letter in his hand, but
did not look at it. atlliough his fing
ers could feel the seal unbroken.
"Why do you give it to me now. boy?”
lie asked at length. "What changed
you?”
"Because it's orders, sir. She
ordered me—that is, she asked tne—
to give you the^e letters when you
seemed to need them most when
you were sick or in trouble, when any
thing had gone wrong. We couldn't
figure so far on ahead w.ien l ought
io gi\ e volt each one. I hail to do my
best. 1 didn't know at first, but now
I see that you're sirk,. Y'ou're not
yourself—you're In trouble. She told
me not to let you know who carried
them." he added rather incnnseiiuent
]y She said that that migh end it
all. She thought that you might
come back.”
"Come had#—when?”
“She didn't know—we couldn't any
of us tell—It was all a guess. All this
about the letters was left to me, to
do my best. I couldn't ask you, cap
tain, or any one. I don’t know what
was In th% letters, sir, and 1 don't
ask, for that's not my business; but
I promised her."
"What did she promise you
“Nothing. She didn't promise me
pay. because she knew 1 .wouldn t
have done it for pay. She only
looked at me, and she seemed sad. I
don't know why. I couldn't li<lp hut
promise her. I gave her my word of
honor, because she sftid her letters
might lie of use to you, hut that no
one else, must know that aha had
written them.”
' When was all this?”
At St. Louis, just before we start
ed. I reckon she picked me out be
cause she thought I was especially
close to you. 1 thought 1 was doing
something for you. You see. ,h- told
me that her name must not lie men
tioned, that no one must know about
thi«. Jrecause it "ouM hurt a wom
an's reputation, thought th<* rn» n
might talk, and that would he had
for you. 1 could not refuse her Po
you blame me now?”
"No. Shannon. No! In all this
there Is hut one to blame, and that
is your officer, myself!
•• I did not think theie was any
harm in my getting the letters to
you captain. 1 knew that lady was
your friend. I know who she is. She
was more beautiful than any woman
m St. Louis when we were there—
more a lady, somehow. Of coin.#,
I'm not an officer or a gentleman—
I'm only a laiy from the backwoods,
and only a private soldier, 1 couldn t
break my promise to her, and I
couldn't vary well pbey your orders
I did. If I ve hr ok © n any of
the regulations you can punish nw.
You see. I held back this letter—I
gave it to you now tiecauso 1 had
the filling that 1 ought to—that she
would want me to. It Is the fever
sit"'
Ave, the fever!”
Silence fell as they *n>nd there In
the night. And now It was the eye
of Meriwether lewi that suddenly
was wet it wa« hiS YOlcw that tretn

"No. Mr. Shannon, about a woman

The right hand of I'apt Meiivvether
Lewis sought that of Private George
Shannon. Shannon stooped and

and aided lus ►ommander again to

off to his bivouac bed.
Meriwether 1-evvls, limp and la*
now. shivering In the chili under the

away, stepped hack to his own lod^e

ran: ^

• • • • • •
St. Louis seethed with excitement
when tlie expedition finally returned
there. Pierre Chouteau captured the
two leaders and bore th»m off to his
home.
"The president has long ago been
advised of your death," said Chou
teau, laughing. "All the world has
said good by to you. No doubt you
can read your own obituaries."
"We bring better news than that.
What news for us?" asked the two
euptins of their host.
“News!" The voluble Frenchman
throw up his hands. "Nothing but
news' The entire world is changed
since you left. I could not tell you In
a month. Tho Burr duel”—
"Yes," said William Clark. "We
have Jusl heard about it."
"The killing of Mr. Hamilton ended
the career of Colonel Burr,” said
Chouteau. "But for that we might
have different times here In Missis
s.ippi. He had many friends. Hut you
have heard the last news regarding
him? No? Well, he came out here
through this country once more. He
was arrested last summer, on the
Natchez Trace, and carried off to
Washington. The charge is treason
against his government. The country
is full of it—ids trial is to be at Rich
mond. Even now it may be going
on."
He did not notire the sudden change
In Meriwether Lewis' face.
"And all the world is swimming in
blood across the sea," went on their
garrulous informant. "Napoleon and
tireat Britain are at war again. Were
it not so, one or the other of them
would be at the gates of New Or
leans. that is Sure. This country is
still discontented. There was much
in the plan of Colonel Rurr to- separ
ate this valley into a country of its
own. independent—to force a seces
sion from the republic, even though
by war on the flag. Indeed he was
prepared for that; hut now his con
spiracy is done."
The deep voice of Meriwether
Lewis broke in. "This is the, first
time I have known what it was. It
was treason! He sought to disrupt
I his country. I had never dreamed
such a thing as possible of him!"
"But what puzzles me is this."
Chouteau continued. "What halted
the cause of Colonel Burr here in
the west? He seemed to be upon
the point of success. His organiza
tion was complete—his men were in
New Orleans—ije had great lands
purchased as a rendezvous below. He
had understandings with foreign
powers, that is sure. Well, then, here
is Colonel Burr at St. Louis. aJI his
plans arranged. He is ready to
march, to commence his campaign,
to form this valley into a great king
dom with Mexico as part of It. But
of all this comes—nothing! Why?
At the last !>oint something failed—
no one knew what. He waited for
something—no one knew* what.
Something lacked—no orv» can tell
what. And all the time—this is most
curious to me—I learned Jt through
others—Colonel Burr was eager to
hear something nf the expedition of
Lewis and Clark into the west Why?
No one knows; Hoes no one know?"
The captain did not speak, and
t'houteau presently went on. "Why
did Colonel Burr hesitate, why did
ne give up his plans here—why, in
deed. did he fail? You ask me why
these things were? I say, it was lie
cause of you—messieurs, you two
young men. with your Lewis and
Clark expedition! It was you who
broke the Burr conspiracy—for so
they call it In theae days."
CHAPTER X. »
Jefferson'* Advice.

hurried to Washington to report to
the president
Thomas Jefferson was sitting bent
over his deak. as usual littered with a
thousand paper*. And on the top of
the desk, spread out long and over

He turned now toward the floor.
What he saw brought him to hla

jority of -of/erators expected s sharp,
upturn has been the cage for many i
months wlien Chipago was closed. \
At the outside figure Winnipeg
wheat w as 3 1-86 l-4c over the close
on Saturday. Opening prices were

porters w ho were removing hedges
against rash sales and on a keen de
mand, a!] handlers receiving baying
orders over night and offerings were
light the greater part "Ja*he day and
closing reaction from the outside
figures was due to profit taking by
holders of offers.
dicated that a large exf/ort business
had been done in wheat, but a late
wire to Logan & Bryan said that the
actual amounts sold from the seaboard
v.ere small and tiids wrora abroad
