A New Castle correspondent writes
that there are more prisoners confined
in the county Jail than ever before,
despite the fact that they are now at
work. The stone pile apparently has
now terrors for tramps nor the class
who come before Judge Ball on the
charge Of drunkenness. The crowd of
prisoners available for this work is so
great that it is necessary to work the
gangs in turns SO that each man may
have an opportunity to. contribute his
labor TO his own support. .

Th9 Harvester Trust Scared Out of Ex-
istence by the Laws Aspect.
CHICAGO. Jan. 9.-President McCor-
mick furnishes the following statement
to. the Associated Press: The American
Harvester company, after securing the
opinion of eminent counsel from differ
eptstates, has been brought face to face
with grave legals obstacles to the con-
summation OF the enterprise for which
it was formed. These are of such a
character that after most serious and
careful consideration, the conclusion has
been reached that the whole undertake
ing must be abandoned. In so doing it
is but adopting such course as it's
united counsel have advised.
1t was only after long deliberations
that the gentlemen composing the trust
decided to abandon it. The hardest
rocks against which it ran were the de-
cisions OF the Illinois and New York
courb. The interests involved in the
trust were 60 great that it was agreed
that $50, ,000. 900 capital would be neces-
sary.so 10 put it on its feet. OF this sum.
$50, ,00O, ,0O0 was to- be apportiOned among
the several institutions. and SIS, ,O00, 900
in bonds, issued for a working capital.
When the company attempted to float
tVhCGC OOuOo, CuC OultCu SDbdbC6 4Iu6UOO.
of New York, declined them on the
ground that the company had been Or
ganized in such away as to violate the
antitrust statutes. Other financial
institutions were appealed to with the
same result. Then it was proposed to
raise the necessary funds with the COM
pany itself, but the various concerns
becoming frightened at the legal aspect
of affairs, refused totie up their individ-
ual establishments where they would be
handicapped by heavy legal and tinan-
cial liabilities. Hence nothing bat dis
solution remained.
A local paper says another cause of
dissolution was the fact that the Nc
Cormick, Deering and other big houses
in the trust were dissatisfied with the
policy mapped out and were ready to
secede anyway. A merry war is now in
prospect. 1t is each firm for itself, cut,
slash and let die those who cannot stand
the gait.

part of the capitol, and he began acting
as governor.
The frst conflict of authority occurred
this afternoon when telegram was re-
ceived stating that an Indian outbreak
was feared in the northern part of the
state, and asking that tire militia now
at the front be placed to repsl the attack.
Governor Boyd ordered Adjutant- Gen.
eral Cole to make preparations, but
Cole replied that he would take orders
only from Governor Thayer. Boyd there
upon declared Cole ousted, and appoint
ed General Victor Vifquain to- the po-
sition. The state militia on the frontier
has two commanders, and it is irmpossi-
BILE to tell whose orders they will obey.
FREEZING OUT PRCEss.
The janitors of the state house have
gone over to Boyd, and it is said the gas
and steam will be turned off from Thay-
er's office:tomorrow. Thayer today peti-
toned the supreme court for quo waG-
ranso writ to determine Boyd's position.
The court will decide next Tuesday.
Meantime Thayer has issued public
statement, saying he wishes the SUI
preme court to decide the matter before
he vaeates the Offices. Boyd has moth
ing to say about his case, except that he
is citizen. His friends claim that if he
was not legally naturalized, he is
citizen of the United States because he
was a citizen of the territory of Ne
braska, and when the state was admit
ted into the union, all it's inhabitants
were invested with full citizenship. All
parties to the struggle are keeping cool.

Associated Press Dispatches
LINCOLN, Neb., Jan. 9.-This morn
ings session of the legislature was
wasted in wrangling over the minutes OF
the joint convention, which were badly
mixed on account of the confusion. This
work was unfinished at noon. All of
the newly elected state officers were in
possession of their Offices, except Cover
nor Boyd,who is kept out by Governor
Thayer, on the grounds that he is incl
igible.
Powers, the Alliance candidate for
governor, took the oath of Office today,
and it is said the legislature will recog-
nize him as governor. All the new state
officers have been recognized, except the
governor. Tom Majors has been in
stalled as lieutenant-governor and
speaker, under protest. Governor Boyd
has been recognized by the new state
officers, and they will report to him.
WHO rs GOVERNOR?
The proceedings in the senate this
afternoon were not of much Importance.
A motion was made toward limiting
employees to about half the number of
given places last session. Several bills
were introduced and an attempt was un-
successfully made to approve the min
utes of the last session. This business
was still pending, when an adjournment
was taken until tomorrow.
In the house an uproar was created by
a motion to appoint committee to wait
on "the governor" and ask for his mes
sage. Amendments directing the COM
mittee to wait upon Governor Thayer,
Governor Boyd and Governor Powers
were proposed, in rapid succession, and
this matter had not reached focus at
the time of adjournment.
Aresolution directing the preparation
of bill appropriating 100000 fog the
reliefof drought sufferers near the Colo
RADIO line, was adopted with enthusiasm.
THE MIx-UP CONTINUES.
The gubernatorial mix-up still ccntin-
ues. Governor Tayer-still holds the fort
against Governor Boyd. As reported IN
these dispatches yesterday, his objection
is that Boyd was never naturalized, and
therefore is ineligible. The board of
public lands and buildings, however, to-
day assigned Boyd quarters in another
