Deputy Insurance Commissioner Bryant
lias received a number of Inquiries lately
concerning the State Llfo Insurance com
pany ot Indiana , as to whether hla decision
prevents it from doing an Insurance busi
ness in Nebraska. According to the opin
ion of the deputy commissioner the com
pany is simply prevented from issuing what
in called "local representative contracts"
until permission is granted to issue this
kind of a policy In Indiana. This is a spe
cial form of contract and the decision
therefore docs not exclude the company from
doing ordinary Insurance business. The de
cision on this point has been misinterpreted
by aomo. . Deputy Commissioner Bryant , In
reply to these Inquiries , states that the com
pany is solvent and Is authorized to issue
the usual form of a policy.
James H. Pcabody , a Douglas county pop
ulist , was today appointed a colonel on the
governor's staff.

CHADRON. Nob. , Aug. 26. ( Special. )
The notorious Currlo and hla accomplices ,
over the heads of whom a standing reward
of $5,000 Is offered , dead or alive , for thef
now famous train robbery In which an ex
press car was blown to atoms with dyna
mite and a largo amount of money made
away with , are as remote from the clutches
of the law cow as at any tlmo ilnco their
successful escape into the Hole-ln-the-Woll
country of Wyoming. From authentic Information
mation It Is learned that the recent re
port of Currlc's successful entrance and
escape from this city under the very nose
of skilled detectives and around ofllcaro of
the law , -while supposedly true , lacked foun
dation of fact.
Currlo's shrewdness and tact , coupled with
tbo fact of his being so well known In
Chadron , tend to disquiet even the supposi
tion that ho would take ouch desperate
chances. Curriowill feel satisfied to rest
eocuro with his confederates In the Hole-ln-
thc-Wall , where he la plentifully supplied
with provisions and -whore the combined
efforts of an army of "dead-shots , " de
tectives , officers and 'bloodhounds have meta
a Watsrloo. Currlo Is the "block sheep" of
a family bearing the best of reputation In
this city. It is asserted that should he
enter this town under complete and suc
cessful disguise , ho would not be harbored
by any ono of them. Two of hla sisters
are married to reputable railroad men hold
ing Important positions here. His mother
is a quiet , unpretentious lady , who greatly
deplores the waywardness of her Don ,
George. She la nt present keeping house
with her two younger sons , Hugh and Don ,
and daughter , Barbara , whoso standing in
this community is the best.
