PROBABLE CLEMENCY FOR MURDERER RHEA

Commissioner.
(From a Staft Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, April 21. (Special.) James
Riley of Plsttsmouth has protested to the
secretary ot the State Board of Irrigation
acatnit the allowance of the application
of Andrew Rotewater of Omaha for per
mission to use the water of the Plattamouth
river abort Ashland for power purposes.
Mr. Riley Is the promoter ot an enterprise
somewhat similar In nature, which, were
it carried Into operation, would use the
water near Plattamouth, or below the point
of Mr. Roaewater's claim. SeversI days
aco the secretary of the board acted fa
vorably on Mr. Roaewater's application, and
Bow Mr. Riley demands a hearing, to the
end that a full and free . discussion of the
situation may be bad.
The power plant contemplated In the
plans sJbmltted by Mr. Rosewater Is by
far the largest and most extensive ever
formally proposed in this state. It would
bare a capacity of 60.000 horse power, would
utilize 5,000 cubic feet of water per second,
and would cost $3,000,000 to build. The sys
tem would Include a reservoir of 38,000
acres, extending from a point four miles
below Valley, to within four miles of Ash
land. At the lower end of this reservoir
would be a dam six miles across. The water
would be stored In this Immense basin
and taken as needed through a canal to
another reservoir about midway between
Ashland and Richfield, where the power
machinery would be located. The water
would be returned to tho river, undimin
ished In quantity, except as by evaporation
and natural waste, at a point nearly below
Richfield.
Daata of ftlley Irateat.
Mr. Riley has filed a protest, In which
be says: "I beg leave to call your attention
to the fact that the appropriation of water
at that point Involves tbe construction
of a dam to Impound It, the height of which
will probably be about forty feet, and the
length of It about six miles. I would In
form you further that It- would Involve the
construction of a tunnel leading Into Buf
falo creek, the length of which will bo
two miles. '
"I call your attention further to the fact
of tbe practical impossibility ot the con
struction of such a dam as contemplated.
The undertaking la chimerical and Impos
sible. , . .
"I beg leave to call your attention to
tbe fact that we are undertaking tbe con
struction of a power canal, known as the
Plaltsmoutb canal, commencing at the east
end of Ashland bridge and Intersecting It
or running across said Buffalo creek. Tbe
allowance of tbe said Water right to the
said Rosewater might seriously Interfere
with our financial negotiations, leading up
to the procurement of. a sufficient amount
ot money with which to carry to a success
ful conclusion our undertaking. I, there
fore, protest against tbe allowance to the
said Andrew Rosewater of his water right
or appropriation, to the end that a full
and free discussion of the x'tuatlon of both
sides be held with s view to determining
whether or not his request be granted."
Secretary Dobson of the State Board ot
Irrigation said today he would give Mr.
, Riley en 'opportunity to be beard on his
- protest, and that It he then declines to
revoke (tie permit already Issued to Mr.
Rosewater, the only or next recourse will be
to appeal to the board.
Ktn Wrinkle In laiaraaee,
A new Idea In Insurance waa brought to
the attention of the state Insurance de
partment today and a decision was given to
the effect that It could not be put into
operation In this state, as requested, under
the fraternal Insurance law.' E. M. John
son of Denver, supreme chancellor of the
United Moderns, asked permission for his
1 company to enter the Nebraska field. The
company issues policies on the old-line
basis, but rs organized as a fraternal or
der. In other words. It Is of the stlpu
eted premium class of companies with the
fraternal feature attached. Mr. Babcock.
deputy Insurance auditor, ssya the company
may be licensed in the stipulated class, but
cannot be termed a fraternal order.
In writing to the Insurance department
Mr. Johnson ssys tbe Idea Is used merely
to attract persons who favor the fraternal
. orders because they furnish social sniuse
ment and association.
Hope for Rhea.
Governor Ssvsge has thus far given no
Intimation to what his decision will be In
the application for executive clemency In
wehalf of William Rhea. He has said that
i he will give his decision to tbe public
sometime before April 25, but further than
this he declines to be Interviewed. It Is
'becoming generally believed that the gov
'ernor Intends to commute the sentence.
Several weeks ago. when tha matter was
first being agitated. Private Secretary
Clancey prepared a statement for the gov
ernor to sign denying the plea for clem
ency. The statement was never signed,
but wss returned to Mr. Clancey, so It Is
statet). and has now been forgotten. Mr.
'Clancey in the meantime has found that
there were extenuating circumstances In
the crime end it Is reported that hs has

Head of International Navigation Company
Suggested for President of Oombine.
ENGLISH PRESS CRITICAL T0WAR0 POOL
Thinks Great Britain's Steamship Men
Are t nvvlse to Be nominated
la Bnalneas by Their
Yaakee Coaslas.
NEW YORK, April 21. Clement At Orls
com, head of the International Navigation
company, which Is to enter the steamship
combination, organized by J. P. Morgan,
was In this city today and conferred for a
long time, with some of Mr. Morgan's part
ners. Mr. Grlscom's attention wss called
to a ststement ot Charles H. Cramp, the
Philadelphia ship builder, who is reported
to have declared that the consolidation of
English. German and American steamship
companies on the lines planned by Mr. Mor
gan would work harm to American ship
builders. "Then let the Amertcsn ship
builder swake up and do Something," said
Mr. Grlscora. "There la plenty for him
to do."
Mr. Griacom characterized as "imagi
nary," the reporta coupling his name with
the presidency of the Morgan steamship
combination.
Later In the day It was snnounced st
the office of J. P. Morgan Co., that the
syndlcste In control bad closed the sub
scription books here and abroad. No de
tails aa to allotments of stock were given.
Allotments of Stock.
LONDON. April 21. The allotments of
stock In the new shipping corporation were
all taken up by British members of tbe
syndicate at noon today. What proportion
was given to Europe the Morgans decline to
announce, but evidently It was not near y
so large as desired by the British Interests.
J. P. Morgan is now In Paris, but from
other members of the firm the Associated
Press learns that the corporation will be
run almost exactly on the same linrs ss tbe
United States Steel corporation, each bran h
retaining Ita Individuality, but being sub
ject to the control of the directing body.
The statements Intended tor the stockhold
ers of the new corporation regarding earn
ings, management, etc., will be Issued by a
method similar to the one now employed by
the steel corporation.
Regarding the defection of the Cunard,
Allan. Anchor and French steamship lines
the Morgsn views are as follows:
It remains to be seen whether they will
come In. We think It Is rather a good
thing. In some respects, not to get every
body In at the beginning, the idea being
thst the present combine Is quite big
enough to start with, snd It la better to
get It down to a practical, working basis
before being too anxious to make a clean
sweep.
Anent the possible refusal of the British
and continental shareholders to ratify tbe
directors' action tbe Associated Press is
authoritatively Informed that no such con
tingency Is possible, as the corporation al
rkeady owns a controlling financial Interest
in each line, and so far no indicatlona of
discontent on the part of shareholders over
the prospective conversion of their present
securities have been noted.
Rnsrlanai Is Agitated.
What Is called the "Morganlzlng" of the
greater section of the Atlantic ferry Is
causing considerable perturbation In Great
Britain. The Westminster Gazette sug
gests that It may be entitled to' the grave
attention of the government, as In some
quarters' it Is insisted that the "vital In
terests of the empire In time of war may
be jeopardized by the new arrangement,"
and almost In tbe same breath the' paper
reiterates the argument used when the
combination was first mooted, that It would
be a powerful peace factor between Great
Britain aud America, for the great Amer
ican financiers would find It to their own
Interests to use their Influence against war
between the two countries.
The Pall Msll Gazette thinks the arrange
ment gives tbe United Statea an enormous
pull on the Atlantic and that it is not cred
itable to Great Britain that English steam
ship lines should be domlnsted by Amer
icana. General Terms of t'nloa.
BERLIN, April 21. The general terms
under which the German steamship com
panies have Joined the International ship
combination are understood to be as fol
lows: First The Germsn lines are to have such
representation on the board of control as
to prevent their being outvoted by the
Anglo-American Interests. Tbe German
companlea will thus preserve their Inde
pendence and will no more be controlled
by tbetr associates than they will control
them.
Second A pro rata distribution of profits
according to tonnage will be made.
Third The German companies , are to
share in the advantages derived from what
ever agreements the combination makes
with Amerlcsn railroads.
Besides these principles, which broadly
outline the bails of the contract on tha
union ot the German lines, la brought about,
reports of other Ideas less easily under
stood are In circulation. Tbess are based
upon seemingly suthoritative Information.
Division of Management.
One of these reports is thst It Is the pur
pose of the allied lines that the manage
ment of the combination shall consist ot
ttrse groups, of which the Hamburg-American
Steam Packet company and the North
German Lie yd line shall count for two and
the Anglo-American lines for one.
The future working of the combination
appears to be provided for by a system
which Is largely automatic, thus avoiding
ths possibility of a conflict In management.
Tbe newspapers, for tbe meet part, dis
cuss ths steamship agreement adversely.
The Berliner Tageblatt expresses the be
lief that although the profits of the Ger
man lines may temporarily increase. It
will be at the loss of free development In
the future and the exposure of German
business to destruction, which American
toolhardlness and American conceit of their
greatness are sure to bring about. Tbe
real American peril, continues tbe Tage
blatt does not He In American competition,
but of the possibility of bold financiers en
tangling German business In unsound
schemes.

DR. KILMER CO.. Blnghamton. N. T.
Gentlemen: In the summer of 1898. I was taken violently 111. My trouble be
gan with pain In my stomach and back, so severe that It seemed ss If knlvis were
cutting me. I wss treated by two of the best physicians In the country, and con
sulted soother. None of them suspected that the cause of my trouble was kidney
disease. They all told me that I bad cmcer of the stomach, and would die. 1 grew
so week that I could not walk any more than a child a month old. and I only wcUb'-J
sixty pounds. One dsy my brother saw In a paper your advertisement of Swamp-Root,
the greet kidney remedy. He bought me a bottle at our drug store and I took It. My
family could see a change In me, for the better, so tbey cbtslned more snd I contin
ued the use of Swamp-Root regularly. I was so wesk and run down that It took
considerable time to build me up again. I am now well, thanks to Swamp-Root, and
weigh 141 pounds, and am keeping house for my husband and brother, en a fa. m.
Gwamp-Root cured me after the doctors hsd

The Best
Office Building
Moving Is not pleasant to think about
except when the prospect of a handsome
office is In prospect. You have to get up
a certain amount of steam to move, even
when you are driven to desperation by
poor Janitor mork, wretched elevator ser
vice and offices that have been long in
need of paint as well aa soap and water.
The Bee Building
always looks fresh and attractive because
It Is nsver allowed to get out of repair.
This together with efficient Janitor service
make It a pleasant plsce to do buslnees.
Besides this ths rents are no higher
than la other buildings.

Sick Stomach
It's over-loaded; that's what's the matter, and if this
boy don't get a Cascaret he'll be a sick boy all over.
Too much of a good thing! That's what we are all
liable to take. Grown up, sensible people will some
times do it and make themselves sick. "la time of
peace prepare for war," and have about the house a
pleasant, perfect, palatable, positive medicine for
sour stomach, sick headache, colic, winds, belching,
biliousness, furred tongue, lazy liver, constipation,
bad breath, bad taste, all HabU to result from
over-indulgence in the good things of life. Cascarets
Candy Cathartic are what you want. Eat and drink
what and as much as you please. A tablet after a
big meal will prevent sickness, or a tbl at night
before going to bd, afW a good time, will fix you
all right for morning, and let yoa get tip clear as a
bell, ready for business or pleasure.
