Senator Plat Getting Data for Coming
investigations.

Washington, ID. c., June Ex-senator
Platt, of Connecticut, chairman OF the
senate committee charged with the i'll
yestigation of the conduct of the Amer
lean government in Cuba, has arrived in
Washington and had consultation
at the war department with Col. Ed
wards, chief of the insular division.
His purpose is to ascertain what ma
terial bearing upon the subject under
Investigation can be secured by the
committee in Washington, in order
that the plans for the investigation
may be intelligently outlined by the
committee. The senator says it is not
possible in advance of the procure
ment of this information to tell when
the committee will go to Cuba or
even to announce the date of its meet
ing in Washington. Senator Piatt
last night said: q
81 have been in consultation with
the war department today with u
view of obtaining at the very earliest
possible moment detailed statement
of receipts and expenditures in the is
land of Cuba from it's occupation TO
April 30, 1900, such detailed statement
being necessary to any thoro and in
telligent investigation as required by
the senate resolution directing the
same. A thoro investigation of all
the expenditures in Cuba is now being
made under the direction OF Gen. Wood
and a corps of expert accountants
employed by him. 1t is evident that
until this is done the work of investi-
eating by witnesses cannot be com
menced."

sHoRTENs A RIVER rs MILES.
Cut Through a Bend In the Missouri
Alters State Linen.

Jackson, Neb., June 23.-An armed
band of thirty-two men from South
Dakota has cut channel thru Rining-
er's Neck, or as it is known on the
maps, Bruigher's Bend, in the Missouri
river. There is great excitement over
the matter here.
The bend is some twenty-five miles
around and not more than a quarter
of mile across it's neck. The neck
is low land, covered with willows and
small timber. At one time probably
the channel of the river ran across it.
Residents of the bottoms along the
river east of Elk Point have always
contended that if a channel could be
cut thru the neck and the river
Strengthened it would prevent the re-
currence of the spring floods which
have SO frequently overfowed the
southwestern portions of Union coun-
ty.
Another result OF cutting thru the
neck of the bend is to throw thousands
of acres of land into South Dakota
which has. been a part of Nebraska.

TRIAL OF p1soF. WILLIAMS.
Charged With Assaultins Woman at
Bloomfield.
100000 o&@&~&&

Bloomfield, June Especially 1.-The
trial OF Prof. A. Williams, principal of
the Southern Iowa Normal school, at
Battery upon Mrs. Mary Priest, who
had charge of the dormitories of the
institution, is in progress today. The
prosecuting witness, Mrs. Priest, al
leges that she was under contract as
a sort of housekeeper for the institu-
ton, dated some time last April, by the
terms of which she was to have charge
of the kitchen, dining room, pantries,
ETC., until August 25. She had keys to
all these rooms and she alleges that
Williams took the keys away from her
room about six weeks ago. She says
that he discharged her June 10 and the
next morning would not allow her to
enter the dining room. Mrs. Priest
went back to her room and again came
back to the dining room accompanied
by ten or twelve students. Admission
was again refused her. The students
also refused to enter unless she was
allowed the same privilege. She made
an attempt to again get into the room
. when, it is alleged, Prof. Williams
struck her on the arm and pushed her
against the wall. She, it is said, made
no further attempt to get into the
dining room and last week swore out
a warrant for the professors arrest on
the charge Of assault and battery. The
defendant is engaged this afternoon in
telling his side of the story, which may
materially change some of the .llega-
tons made by the plaintiff.

coNDI rIoNs FAIRLY coon.
Wheat, Oats and Barley in Good Shape
and Corn Prolnising.

and Corn Promising.
Des Moines, June 26.--(Special.)-
The weekly crop bulletin and weather
report for the week ending June 25,
issued today, is as follows:
The weather conditions of the week
were fairly good for all crops. The
rainfall was unequally distributed,
ranging from very light showers to
heavy downpours in extensive areas.
Some local damage was caused by wind
squalls and hail, but generally the re-
suits were very beneficial, and in near
" all sections there is ample moisture
for present needs.
Good progress has been made in Gull
tivating corn, and work in that line
will be practically completed by the
list of July. The general condition of
that crop is highly promising.
The cool nights and moderate tenn
perature have been favorable to oats,
wheat, and barley, checking the ten
dency to development of smut and rust.
Spring wheat and oats are filling well,
tho in northern and western districts
the stand is thin and straw short Bar
ley harvest will begin within a few
days.
Clover cutting is in progress, with
variable yield. Timothy is generally
thin, but the meadows have been i'm
proved from effects of recent rains by
new growth of clover.
Reports received by the secretary of
the horticultural society indicate some
decline in the condition of apples, es-
pecially in the central and southern
sections.

Paris, June 29.-Iowa spread her

the United States commissioners and
some other interesting Americans.

made Missouri slope group of war;
riors not to be cast down by any other
upholders of the Stars and Stripes

the host had simply wreathed the pa

white and blue; and corn pone came in
from the corn kitchens at the EXPOSE

plenty of ice were the things particu-
larly promised in the menu.
Speeches brought out Mr.. Woodward
and Mr.. Fethers, and, a1tho a stag af-
fair, its delightful features were with
out number. Its success has inspired
a series of brilliant stag parties, which
will be limited almost to Iowa and it's
splendid representatives, who are not
only rich and solid citizens of the
United States, but are soldiers, brave
and laureled, most of them men of title
and recorded valor.

INDIANS TO GRADE RAILROAD.
The Burlington Makes Contract With
Crows at Their IL equest

Chicago, June 2s.-The Burlington
railroad has contracted with number
of Crow Indians to grade ten miles of
roadbed on an extension from Toluca,
Mont, to Cody, Wyo.. in the Big Horn
country. This is the first time Indians
have been employed for such work. and
the strangcst feature is that the Indi-
ans demanded employment.
The new line, as laid out, crosses the
Indian reservation. When the company
was negotiating right of way thru
the reservation with the government
and Indians, the latter embraced the
opportunity of demanding that they be
allowed to do all the work they could.
The Burlington officials say the
Grow Indians have built several fine
irrigating bitches and have otherwise
shown themselves to be an industrious
and progressive people.

Chicago, June 22.-By order Of
Judge Tuley the Western Union Tele-
graph company has been ousted as col
lector of the daily market quotations
on the floor of the Board of Trade, and
that body today commenced to collect
its own quotations and transmit them
to the telegraph companies. The right
to collect quotations is regarded by the
board as an important step in cutting
off the ticket service from bucket
shops. No change will be made in the
manner of distribution of quotations
until the matter is finally passed upon
by the courts.
