Money to Burn in Kansas.

In the State of Nebraska and in the
other States Of the Middle West the loan
business, as it was formerly conducted, is
over. Hundreds of thousands of dollars
of Eastern money have been sent back
since last fall because there was no
market for it. Only recently bank Off
cial in central New York received letters
of inquiry from Kansas asking as to the
value of certain investments. Some persons
in Kansas had money to lend in the East.
1t is fact beyond dispute that Western
mortgages are being paid off far in ad-
vance of maturity. One agent of loan
company told me that from the West
alone returns ON unmatured loans were
coming in at his Office at the rate of $780,
900 week faster than he could put out
the money again. He said he was simply
sending back all the Eastern money that
was coming to him. He could not find a
market even for his Western money.

The Fleet Horse in Poetry.

F. S. Dellenbaugh has an article en-
titled 1.-THE Quick Horse in February

horses that play such prominent part in
the modern fire department. Mr. Dellen-
baugh says:
Mankind loves the horse, for the horse
has been one of mans most valuable aids
and companions in all ages. But there
are preferences among horses. Some are
priced for their steady working qualities
their ability to draw heavy loads. From
time immemorial the quality of speed has
thrilled humanity and found an echo in

consequence vanishes forever from his
fond sight. ''Sheridan's Ride'' wakes

AND NOW FOR SAMPSON.

Verify this is war OF maSnlncent
distances. Our first great victory In
the Philippines on the other side OF
the world has probably been ere this
followed I'D by another American
victory on the reverse side of the globe
at Porto Rico.
Admiral Sampson has a larger Span
ish fleet to fight than Dewey had, but
he has a considerably more powerful
squadron than Deweys. The battle at
Porto Rico-and report indicates that
one has been fought-was prob
ably not so one-sided as the
Philippine engagement, in which
the Americans came off I'M
scathed while the Spanish lost all. The
Spanish admiral whose fleet prob
ably arrived at Porto Rico at the
same time Sampson did, is said to be
SPANS ablest sea fighter, while his
vessels comprise the most formidsAe
In the Spanish navy. No doubt, how
ever. of the outcome is expressed by
naval officers. Mr. Watson, the great
English naval expert, says that if the
Spanish feet engages Sampson it "will
be smashed hands down"
At the hour of going to press
rumors were thick on the wires and
heavy firing was reported heard In
those waters yesterday, while definite
news was expected at any moment.
A victory by Sampson will end the
war The Spanish will have nothing left
to do but get out of cuba and get out
at once We could undoubtedly have
driven them out of that island long
ago, but the smashing OF Spain's Cape
Verde fleet will not only make victory
doubly sure. but probably obviate the
necessity of landing a single regiment
in Cuba to cause the surrender Of the
Spanish and the freedom Of the island
Meanwhile the American people are
impatient to hear from Admiral Samp-
son.
