Indiana Shares in the Boon.

indianapolis, Ind, April 1.-THE first
rain of the season came yesterday and
was general but light over the state.
The drouth had resulted in much dam
age to wheat and in preparing the
ground for early crops, so that the fall
of moisture yesterday was much need
ed relief However, there was hardly
more than enough to start the grass
and shrubbery and the weather bureau
official reports that many times heav-
Ter rain is necessary before any real
benefit can be claimed. In the north
part Of the state about hat inch fell.
At this point the rainfall was only 20
of an inch and it dwindled to OF of an
inch along the Ohio. The indications
are for occasional light showers.

Dust Laid Low In Illinois and Many
Nearby States

Chicago, April illinois was in the
rain storm yesterday and got drenched
all over. The sister states, Missouri and
Iowa, were in it also. Other of the CEN
trail and northern states got partly wet
by the rain, which was so long and anx-
iously awaited. When the big drops be-
gan to fall about l o'clock Sunday
morning the storm was central over
these states. 1t was falling on the west
ern border of Indiana, but began NOV
ing eastward, and at noon yesterday
the weather man said the whole state
was being rained on. 1t was spreading
northward also and the opinion was
that Wisconsin would be included in
the area. n The rain gave indication of
lasting until noon to-day. The other
places got some of the welcome rain
were Southern Minnesota, eastern Ne
braska, eastern Kansas, eastern Indian
Territory, northern Arkansas, and
western Tennessee and Kentucky. South

Beautiful Row in the Nebraska Senate
Yesterday.

G. Stewart, a populist, of Dawes county.
engaged in an encounter with the SER
geant-at-arms on the floor of the senate
yesterday afternoon which, before it
was concluded, almost precipitated
general hand-to-hani conflict between
political friends of the combatants. The
senator caused the trouble by refusing
to obey an order from the chair The
acknowledgements raped for order,
but the senator ignored him. The SER
geant-at-arms was directed to quiet
the speaker, but when he attempted to
do so the now thoroughly angry Dawes
county member resisted vigorously. The
sergeant caught him by the beard and
held on as if his life were at stake. The
chamber by this time was in an uproar.
every member leaving his seat and
crowded around the two original COM
batants, the presiding oBcer meantime
shouting for order at the top of his
voice. Finally Lieut.-Gov. Moore aban-
doned the chair ordered the sergeant

lists moved to adjourn, but this was
voted down and a resolution adopted
giving Senator Stewart twenty-four
hours in which to apologize to the sem
ate or to stand committed as worthy of
vote of censure. The house, after an
exciting debate, defeated the bill to per-

FROM FOREST FIRES.
WESTERN KENTUCKY AND
SOUTHERN INDIANA SUFFER.
Heavy Financial Loss and Six Persons
Known to Have Perished In the Flames
Fire In a Milwaukee Suburb-Other
Blazes Yesterday.

Cincinnati Ohio, April 2.-Specials
from points in western Kentucky and
southern Indiana report that the forest
fires are still raging, but definite in
formation from any localities is lacking.
The loss is estimated at 100000 in Ken
lucky and less in Indiana. The death
Of Henry Filler near Bowling Green,
KY, and two negroes and that of Mrs.
Penny, in addition to those reported
yesterday, make three white men, two
negroes and one woman lost. While
the farmers have been blowing and
doing everything to-day to prevent the
spreading of fires, and there is no
doubt of their loss and danger, yet it is
believed that greatly exaggerated re-
ports of the fires have been circulated.

SAW THE TAYLOR BROTHERS
They Were Met While Returning to Town
After the Meeks Murder.

Carrollton, Mo-, April 2.-The evil
dence for the defense in the Taylor
case was concluded Saturday by the
testimony of the brothers, each swear
ing that he was at home the night Of
the murder and this was supported by
the previous testimony given by their
relatives. They had no witnesses ex-
cept their relatives, and many of them
became badly tangled. The state proved
that Mrs. w. p. Taylor had said that
she had lost all hopes of her husbands
innocence and never wanted to see him
alive again. Attorney Bresnehen is in
receipt of communication from Milan
announcing that DR.. Waters of that
city while making professional call
late at night saw William and George
Taylor driving into town. This i'm
portant evidence, late as it comes, will
almost put the hangman's halter around
the necks of the Inflated Taylors. 1t is
rumored that it may be necessary to
call for military protection if the jury
does not convict them. Interest in the
case increases and bitter feeling pre-
walls

CUEANS PLAN A COUP,
Expect to Ask Recognition of Their
Provisional Government.

Washington, April 1.-The success
es which are said to be attending the
operations of the insurgents in Cuba
will, if they are continued, soon lead to
a determined effort to secure recogni-
ton from the United States. While no
communication, either formal or infor-
NAL, has as yet been received at the
state department, it's arrival is not I'M
expected.
1t has always been the policy Of the
United States to recognize de facto gov
ernments. If. therefore. the Cuban in
surgents can create a provisional gov
eminent, they will have taken a long
step forward in the direction of securing
recognition as belligerents. This coun-
try also demands, as rule, that the
new government shall issue currency
and shall be in possession of a consider
able portion of the territory over which
it assumes control.

BONDSMEN TO SETTLE.
1t Is Said Chicagoans VIII Take $780,
600 for the Se63.O0O Setter Notes.

900 for the S263.OOO Setter Notes.
Carlyle, ILL.,, April 1.-The local credi-
tors of the defunct Ramsay bank met
for the fourth time in this city Satur-
day afternoon. This was the final
meeting, and every arrangement has
been made to contest the $363,000 claim
filed by the bondsmen of the late state
treasurer. 1t is the general opinion
here that several of the noted men Of
the state were large borrowers from
Ramsay, and may be cognizant of facts
pertaining to the deficiency in the treas
ury which they do not care to disclose.
Ex-Banker Setter of Lebanon, ILL.,, bor-
rowed state funds from Ramsay to the
amount of S263000 and gave his notes
for that amount. These notes are held
by the Chicago bondsmen, who will
take $125,000 for these notes-$55, 900 to
be paid in cash, the balance to be Sc
cured by a preferred lien on the Setter
assets. The settlement of these notes
by Setter will leave the local creditors
of the Ramsay bank in a much better
condition. The 1863, 900 claim will be re-
duced to 900 and the depositors
will receive about 40 cents on the dollar.
