Tba complaint Is based upon the allegation that the rates from the south on lumber, cement, glass. salt, coal, brick, rice, sugar, egg case fill ers and other commodltlea are higher to Lincoln than the rates on tbe same com modities to Omaha, over the same roads, though tbe distance to the latter city Is from .two to seventy-five miles farther.

Each representative waa told to aerate h a name. The last name scratched waa to be the oil Inspector aa he would be the least objectionable to the entire bunch. The men aid as the governor suggested and Just aa the last name waa scratched some one took the sheet and the governor woke up without seeing the name so the matter la still up in the air.

Official confirmation , haa been obtained by the Aaaoclated Preea ' of the report that negotiations are In I progress between France and Japan look- tng to an understanding mutually guar j an teeing the political and commercial In I terests of the two powers In ths tar east- Harmonious conferences on the subject have been going on at Tokio. France haa recognised that Its poeseeaiona In Indo China and Biam aa well as lta commercial Interests in the far east would be ex tremely vulnerable In the event of war. At the aame time. It ia explained tfra en tente will be strictly limited to the main tenance of the status quo. It does not touch China and haa nothing resembling an offensive or defensive feature. Neverthe less, taken In connection with the Russo Japanese understanding which shortly will be concluded, and the Anglo-Ruaaian agree ment, both of which are supplementary to Anglo-Japanese and Franco-Russian al liances and the Anglo-French understand ing, the entente creates a combination In the far east and a new grouping of the powers In Europe of extreme significance. It constitutes in effect another signal evi dence of the success of Great Britain a diplomatic maneuvering for the Isolation of Germany. It is learned that the recent Japanese loan floated In Paria and London waa In volved in the negotiations and that Great Britain and Russia already have approved the general lines of the arrangement. LONDON. May 1 Great Britain haa been advised that France and Japan are carrying on negotiations with the view of reaching an understanding providing for the maintenance of the status quo In tbe far east so far aa those nations are con cerned. The discussions have shown that France and Japan hold the aame vlewa with respect to China. While the agree ment will not go as far aa the Anglo Japaneee treaty It will remove any exist ing uneasiness regarding the security of the French possessions In tbe far east. The new Russo-Japanese treaty will, tt ia also believed, embody similar features, so four nations will soon have practically entered into a similar understanding not to Interfere with each other' Interests in the far east.
