Ulysses Dispatch: 8. r. Neal, Shelly
Westbrook & Co.'s elevator man at Sur
prise. Neb., met with sudden death last
week Tuesday evening at $50, which has
cast terrible gloom over Our little city.
Mr.. VIM. Boston, drayman, and Mr..
Neal were hauling some straw on the
dray wagon, Mr.. Boston driving and
sitting on the seat and Mr.. Neal stand
ing up behind the seat. The horses
we're going at good fast gait and owing
to sudden start OF the team Mr.. Neal
fell OF the wagon, striking on his head,
which produced very near instantaneous
death. Dr.. Beede was called but he was
beyond the need of earthly doctors. In
all probability death was caused by the
rupture OF blood vessel in the brain, or
Q fracture of the base of the brain; he
never spoke after the fall. He leaves .
wife, three small children and one
brother, and was insured in different
orders for over $1,000.

POPULAR LOAN THROUGH POS
TAI SAVINGS BANKS.

When Postmaster General Gary pre-
sented his scheme OF postal savings
banks to congress the problem which
seemed to be most perplexing was how
the money deposited with the govern
ment was to be invested. That question
will find q ready answer in case the
country shall drift into war.
In case of var with Spain the country
must raise the sinews Of war by borrow
ing several hundred million dollars. An
issue OF short-time bonds or treasury
notes bearing from 2 to 3 per cent in
terest has been suggested as the most
feasible plan for meeting the emergency.
Such an issue of bonds in denominations
OF $50 and upward would, according to
professional fnanciers, constitute a
popular loan OF which at least $5OO.OO.-
600 could be easily fioated.
A much moro popular and more feast
ble way OF raising war loan wonld he
through the establishment Of a postal
savings hank system. Experience has
demonstrated that an issue OF bonds
scattered among the people sooner or
later finds it's way into the bank vaults
and in due time is converted into big
blocks in the hands Of the millionaire
coupon clippers. A popular loan through
postal savings banks would remain in
the hands of the common people and
would constitute an invaluable adjunct
to our money circulation whenever there
might be scarcity OF currency.
A postal savings bank certificate
would always be as good as national
banknote. The greatest value OF postal
savings hanks to the people is their
absolute safety. They are, moreover, a
stimulus to thrift and patriotism. The
wage workers who constitute the vast
majority of savings bank depositors he
come the creditors of the nation and
their personal interest in the stability OF
the government will impel them to up
hold its integrity and credit.
From every point of view, therefore,
except that Of the bond broker and
speculator, the most effective way to
popularize q government war loan would
be by opening the pOstoffices as savings
repositories and borrowing the wal
fund directly from the masses. Such a
loan would not bar out all people who
do not possess $50 or 500 but would
enable every man, woman and child
Who has dollar saved up to place 1t at
the disposal of the government at the
lowest possible rate OF interest without
the aid or consent OF any middleman
whether he he a curbstOne broker or
bond syndicate financier.
II the postal savings bank has any
true friends in congress they will pres
emily have chance to show their hands,

the general belief, however, that q rup.
ture is imminent.
''The cabinet council met at 4 O'Clock
this afternoon. The session lasted
three hours. Senior Sagasta, the pre-
mier, submitted . draft of the speech
from the throne. Its tenor is not pre-.
cisely known though It makes an ap-
peal to the highest patriotism OF the
nation. It summarizes the interna.
tional problem and points out that
Spain has always presented an accom-.
modating front in everything which
did not diminish her sovereignty,
though she only agreed to grant q ces.
sation Of hostilities in Cuba when the
pope made his request and the powers
joined in counselling it.
"The speech from tho throne appeals

there is q general popular distrust here
