NEBRASKA CANNOT RECOVER

State 10 Nonsuited In Its Action Against
Two Banks. #
OMAHA, Dec. 26.-The state was non.
suited in the case brought to recover
2O1 900 from the Omaha National bank

now serving time. The state set up
that the warrant which the New York
bank purchased through the Omaha
bank and which was redeemed out Of
the state funds was not negotiable and
the banks had legal notice to that
effect. The court held otherwise.

CERVERA'S PLANS.

He will Not Return to Spain Imme-
diately-Will Be the Last Of Our
Spanish Captives to Go Home.
will See His Crews or First--The
Cases of DR.. Jureda and Captain
Moreu.
Washington. Aug 1s.-Admiral Ger
vera will not return to Spain imme-
diately. The reports from Annapolis
which said he would leave there for
Washington today are declared at the
navy yard to be incorrect. The ad-
miral has made no application to leave
the United States, and 1t is the be-
lief that he will be the last of the
Spanish prisoners to go home. as he
appears to be desirous of seeing his
men on their way homeward before he
starts.
The navy department has not taken
up the question of the final DISPOSE
tion of the Spanish prisoners, although
1t has passed on one or two special
cases in which the circumstances made
speedy action advisable. One of those
was the case of DR.. Jureda, the vener-
able Spanish naval surgeon, who was
held with the other Spanish prisoners
at Annapolis. The surgeons report that
Dr. Jureda is very feeble, and while
he might be able to reach Spain If re-
leased now, he would not be able to
make the trip a month hence. The
navy department accordingly directed
