THE WEATHER,
The Story of a Day as Told by the
Map.

The Story of a Day as Told by the
Map.
Today's weather conditions favor a con-
tinuance of the present disagreeable state
of things. The country generally is SUBJ
jected to very severe rain and snow. The
small low area which was yesterday noted
in northern Texas. without any precipta-
ton, has moved eastward to northern
Louisiana, and is now the nucleus for a rain
area extending along the entire gulf coast
and covering most Of the southern Atlantic
territory. There is also a storm area
in the region west of the Mississippi, ac-
ccmpanied by a cold wave of small dimen-
sions in the region of St. Paul. but there
Is an area Of very high barometer coming In
from the Canadian border north of Mon
tana that will doubtless lead to better con-
ditions later in. the week. The general
forecast for today, issued at am, Is as
follows:
"Cloudy weather and rain continue east
of the Mississippi and In the southwest,
and light SHOWS are reported from the up
Fer lake region, and thence westward to
the central Rocky Mountain districts. The
barometer has fallen east of the Mississip-
pi, and it has risen rapidly to the west OF IT.
A depression of moderate energy is central
in the lower Mississippi valley, attended by
heavy rains. The area of high pressure
continues central, north OF Montana, at
tended by decided cold wave, the temper
allure having fallen from 10 to 70 degrees to
the northwest and central Rocky Mountain
districts but it Is generally warmer TINS
morning east of the Mississippi.
General rains are indicated in the SOUTH

Not Much Indian SUFFERING.

Although it has been a most severe win
ter, there has been less complaint than
usual of suffering among the Indians.
Usually there have been several tribes
where especial effort has been made to
prevent them from starving and freezing
to death. Sometimes SPECIAL appropria-
lions have. been passed to meet such emer-
gencies, but during the present winter the
Indian office has been able out of it's gen.
eral fund to care for different cases where
rations have been short and suffering
among the Indians was more than usually
severe.

THE CASE OF TAYLOR.
The President Has All the Papers and
May Soon Take Action.

May Soon Take Action.
Recorder Taylor was at the White House
today and had an interview with Private
Secretary Thurber, the subject of which
was not disclosed. Mr.. Thurber Is quoted
as having said that no action whatever will
be taken in the case of Taylor in the alb
sence of the President. The President has
received the report of the civil service
commission recommending the dismissal of
Recorder Taylor for levying political as
sessments in violation of the civil service
law, and is said to be fully informed of the
matters developed in the Chase libel case
Consequently he may be prepared to act
in the matter soon after his return from
his ducking expedition.

POLICE GUARD THE CHURCH.
No Further Attack on knrminslf n
Omaha.

Omaha.
OMAHA, Neb., March l3.-An night long
a battalion of police guarded st. Pauls
Roman Catholic Church to prevent another
battle between factions Of the Polish con-
gregation. A report had been circulated
that the Poles of South Omaha were going
to Shelley Station to capture the church.
and that they would be assisted by some
Poles from Council Bluffs and the attack
ing party of yesterday.
Excitement ran high, and the 1oiiowers
of Priest Karminski flocked to the church
heavily armed with revolvers and shot-
guns. Sentinels were stationed at the rear
of the church on the inside, and sWore TO
hold possession of the church as long as
they mad life enough I'm their bodies to
make a resistance. But the anticipated at
tack did not materialize.
The men stationed in the church, as the
hours rolled by and no signs OF the at
lacking party was seen, began feeling more
cheerful and secure, and frequent trips
were made to the neighboring saloons. AS
the spirits went down so rose the conn
dence of the party in possession tnat tney
would be able to cope successfully with
any attacking party and would be able TO
retain the advantage which they had been
successful in holding yesterday.
