In the northern part OF Clay county, seven
or eight miles south Of the little town Of
Palmer. and passed in a noriheaster,y d.
rection, through Riley county, and into
Marshall and Nemaha counties. 1t cross
ed the Blue river at the junction of the
Missouri Pacific and Union Pacific. and
passed near the town of Axtell. The little

fered broken leg. Surgical aid was asked
from Barnes and neighboring towns
The storm formed about o'clock almost
in the track OF the one that visited this

Washington City. May 1.-THE present
week in tire senate bids fair to be given
up largely to matters pertaining to the
district OF Columbia The consideration
OF tho dollar gas bill will consume con-
siderable more time, and when II tz dis
posed Of the district appropriation bill will
Be taken up. II II IL not cut out by the
conference report Of The legislative bill
IL In expected that the district sppropri-
alton bih viii lead to considerable dis
eussion. There are numerous items In II
which Eiii cali for explanation and pro-
woke sntsgonism. not the least OF which
Is the amendment changing the house pro-
vision cutting oil the SPECIFIC appropria-
tons for charitable institutions. II IL al
legged that many OF these concerns are Sec
tartan and there will be an effort TO have
the house provision restored
III Is expected that there ALL be an effort
TO have the legislative. executive and tu-
dieiaI appropriation bin recommitted for
further consideration OF the provisions Ia
regard To the United States commission
ers, as the house provision. which the SEN
ate conferees have accepted. is distastefai
TO many OF the senators. II Is expected
that the conference report OF the river
and harbor bin VIII be made early In the
week. but whether this will consume much
time WIZ depend much on What the senate
eonferees may concede.
The senate members are s,iii disposed to
press the appropriations to the exclusion
of other business and viii have the forti-
ncztions bill ready TO take up a. soon as
the district biif and the conference on the
other appropriation bills are disposed Of
They do not contemplate giving way to
other bills, except TO those TO whech no
opposition Is made. until the last Of the
appropriations shall be passed. There are
stu three appropriation bills which have
not received the attention OF the senate.
They are the District of Columbia, forti-
fcatious and general deficiency.
