The Nebraska Situation.

LINCOLN, Neb., January lS.-The State Supreme Court has allowed quo warrauto proceedings begun by ex Gov. Thayer against Gov. Boyd, to go on file and sum mons to issue. The ruling was oral and by Chief Justice Cobb. The Court announced that in case the Lieetnnant Governor should desire to intervene in the proceed ings 1t would allow such jurisdiction, and also ruled that ex.-Gov Thayer would lose nothing by vscating the apartments held by him. The hearing may be opened in five weeks. The summons is returnable on the second Monday after the issue, and the defendant has until the third Monday thereafter to answer. Notwithstanding the decision of the Supreme Court the in- dependeutsin in the House stubbornly refuse to recognize Boyd as Governor, and declare they will never do so until the question of citizenship is determined. It looks as if sll legislation will be stopped until the contest is decided.

AN INSANE GOVERNOR
The Tragedy of the Nebraska
 Muddle,
GOV. THAYER PROSRRATED
Nebraska's EI- I-Governor Said to Have Become Inssne Over tho Recent Gubernatoriai Troubies--A
 Sad Denoumeut.

LINCOLN, Neb,, January l9.--The recent which there were three claimants to seat of Governor promises to have tragic end ing in the possible death of one of the three aspirants for the gubernatorial seat. Gov. Thayer, who was chief executive of the State for four years, was tho most san suine of the three contestants. After Boyd was sworn in and acknowledged Governor, Thsyer refused to surrender the gubernatorlal office, claiming that Boyd was not citizen. For over eighty hours ex-Gov. Thayer remained in forcible pos session of the office, with a squad of police on the outside of the door ard a number of militia on the inside. Despite this warliks display Gov. Boyd finally triumphed, as he first ordered tue police to leave, next scat tered the militia and finally made Thayer vacate.
