Smyth could substantiate this statement.
Mr. Rosewater ssld he A been told by
prominent men that a large part of the
$180,000 of the Hartley plunder, drawn from
the Omaha National bank, went to, pay for
the prisoner's pardon and bis court trials.
He thought Former Representative George
Mead of Omaha could add light on thla
point. Mr. Rosewater thought the men
who were state bank examiners at the time
of the defalcation ought to be able to give
the committee Information aa to the bank
In which the money waa deposited.
On of Hartley' Offers.
One of the most striking polnte brought
out by the testimony of Mr. Rosewater was
his statement that In the fall of 1891, just
prior to Hartley's latter election as state
treasurer. Cashier Best of a Grand Island
bank told him (Rosewater) that Bartley
had offered to place $10,000 of the state's
money In the Grand Island bank, providing
it would be accepted as a private loan.
Best said he refused. Mr. Rosewater
ststed that Bartley bad persistently re
fused to tell him or his representative what
banks he had deposited this money In. Mr.
Rosewater thought former Deputy Warden
Bowera and Under Warden Davis of the
penitentiary could aid the committee In
getting at information concerning the cigar
box.
The committee went Into executive ses
sion after examining Mr. Rosewater and
consulted with Attorney General Prout,
whu had been summoned as a witness, as
to the mode of procedure, and decided to
exclude everything' as record henceforth
but positive testimony.
Staefer to Be Investigated.
In addition to the special committee
which has 'begun an Inquiry Into the
Bartley transaction, - the house, acting
upon the suggestion of Bears of Burt, today
Instructed the speaker to appoint a com
mittee to Investigate the official conduct of
ex-8tato Treasurer 8tuefer In the Burt
county school bond case. Nelson of Doug
las made the motion to have the commltteo
appointed and the speaker named these
, members: Warner of Lancaster, .Mangold
of Douglas... Meradith of York, Davis of
Buffalo '-404, Flehback of Clay.-, Davis la
' the orilyhouse loader on the' committee.
' Speaker Mockett, Is understood, to be op
. posed to' this' investigation. '
' H. R, 184 appropriates $3,000 for the
" paymirnt , of the ' bond premium of 'Mr.
Btuefe, aa state treasurer. Ia a state
,ment fubmlted to the house some days ago
by Bears he recited the details of the
" purrtiaser ot the ' Burt county bonds by
, a 'broker and their subsequent sale to the
state' by this same broker. It Is charged
that the agent realized a good profit by
clipping coupons. Sears has taken the
most decisive stand against this bill and as
chairman ot the claims committee, says
ha would be stultifying himself to act
favorably on It unless tt la clearly demon
strated that Mr. Stuefer did not realize
ss much off this bond speculation as he Is
asking from the state, $3,000.
"I am willing to have an Investigation
made of any of my official acts," said Mr.
Stuefer, who Is in the city. "I will cheer
fully testify before th committee if it de
alres. . I do not fear my claim will be re
jected. Ten of the claims committee voted
to allow It and only one, Mr. Sears, voted
against It."

tion law, designed to prevent repetitions ot

principally Iowa, were brought Into th

chase of state supplies, the house and sen
ate, acting Jointly, have designated their
committees on accounts and expenditures to
ascertain whether W. H. Clark, custodian
of supplies, waa appointed by Marsh or by
the senate. The claim Is the appointment
should have been made by the aenate. Cer
tain criticisms have been made of Clark's
official conduct and U was with the view
of administering" some sort of correction
that the legislature took this action. The
house and aenate, however, have gone Into
the case with their eyes shut. This ex
tract Is taken from the house journal of
January 1$:
DEPARTMENT OF STATE, LINCOLN,
Neb., Jan. 13, 19"3. To the Honrable House
of Representatives: Following precedent
established, I have appointed Mr. W. H.
Clark custodian and James Jalllson, assist
ant custodian, of the supply room and ask
that they be appointed by your honorable
body. GEORGE W. MARSH.
Mr. Christy moved that the request of
the secretary of state be complied with.
Motion prevailed.

An Item In the Lincoln letter to the
Northwestern, published at Loup City, re
lating to the amendment to the Brady ele
vator bill, tacked on- by the eommittee, has
occasioned much surprise and amusement
among the frienda of the bill. The para
graph said the bill bad been amended by
Senator. Wall, "giving the shipper many
advantages not contained In the Brady bill,
and Is now on general file In the senate
with fair prospects of Its passage."
The amendment proposed by Senator
Wall, or his committee, repeals one ot the
most vital sections in the statutes so far
as shippers are concerned. It strikes from
the statutes the law requiring railroads to
conduct an Interchange business, allowing
shipments to be made over two or more
roads without reloading. That la what
friends ot the bill aay Senator Wall's
amendment has done. Senator Brady and
friends of the measure claim that It Is
purely a railroad Idea and will fight the
amendment to its death.

ment. Marshall of Otoe moved that the resolu

danger ot being washed away.
For some time work on the last span of
the Burlington's new steel bridge at this
point has been" In progress day and night
and this morning the men succeeded In
getting It anchored. The ice commenced
moving out soon after, with a mighty roar,
causing the bridge now In course of con
struction to tremble from cne end to the
other, and for a time It wa feared that
the falsework would be washed away, but
dynamite, was freely used to break up the
Ice. A large portion of the big bar oppo
site this city is now covered with Ice end
water from the' main channel. Planks and
other building material are floating down

Protocol.
WASHINGTON, March 10. Senator Mor
gan today secured his first material con
cession in connection with the canal treaty.
This consists of an agreement to attach the
Spooner canal act bndily to the treaty.
Tbis change was made in compliance
with a request presented by Senator Lodge
during the day's executive Session bt the
senate, whu sugirested thstino injury could
reeult, and unanimous coJnt was given
to the proposal. It was specifically stipu
lated, however,' IhHt It did not amount to
an amendment.
Senator Morgan consumed the entire time"
of yie remainder of the closed session "dis
cussing the canal question from various
points of view. He discussed particularly
the attitude of the Isthmian canal commis
sion. He expressed a desire to have copies of
the correspondence between the govern
ment snd the new Panama Canal company
on the 'option to purchase tho canal for
140,000,000, and the senate consented to re
quest the secretary of Btate for tho cor
respondence. The papers had not arrived at 3:30 and
as Senator Morgan said he' could not con
tinue without them. Senator Cullom moved
that the senate adjourn, and this motion
prevailed.
During the day (here was more or less
Informal discussion pf the proposition to
permit Senator Morgan to publish "his re
marks In the Congressional Record, but
no effort was made to reach a decision.
Senator Cullom takes the position that this
permission should not be granted unless
Senator Morgan will agree to allow a day to
be fixed for a vote.
During the day Senator Morgan distrib
uted copies of eight pamphlets on the
treaty, In which he attacks it from almost
every conceivable ground. He declares the
new canal company Illegally constructed,
the arrangements with Colombia qf doubt
ful validity and repeats his -charges of
bribery.
Hit the Wronaj Nail.
Tho best mechanic will sometimes hit the
wrong nail on the bead and a slight Injury
ot this character may disable him and
cause a loss of several days' 'time when
he can ill afford it. When such injuries
are treated in the same manner as a United
States Army surgeon would treat a wound,
viz., apply an antiseptic dressing as soon as
the Injury is received and before any in
flammation or swelling appears they will
heal in one-third the time usually re
quired. Chamberlain Pain Balm acts on
this same principle. It is an antiseptio
and causes the injured parts to heal with
out maturation, which .insures a saving- of
more than half the time usually required
for them to heal. In c&ne of a burn it
allays the pain almost instantly. Pain
Balm is a liniment and one of the most
remarkable yet discovered. It Is most
widely known on account ot its cures of
rheumatism and lame back.
