HEARING NlECENFIND CASE
Jury Secured and Testimony introduced in
Pierce County Murder Case.
MRS. sRtYER OVERCOME BY EXCITEMENT
Daughter and sister Of victims Tells
n Straight story of tbs AFFAIR
One witness Not So
willing.

PIERCE, Neb., Oct. 29.-(special Tele-
gram.)-1n the Niegenhnd case the jury
was secured at about 1850 this forenoon.
The defense exhausted its sixteen chal-
lenges, but the prosecution let its last chal-
lenge go by default.
The jurymen are all farmers, viz. w.
F. Anderson OF Mclean; Chris Lerum OF
Dry Creek, w. ]. Brown of Willow Greek,
j. r. Long of Osmond. G. ]. Straub OF Dry
Creek, G. e. North of Dry Creek, G. B.
Lewis OF Dry Creek, S. Harmon Of Dry
Creek, Louis Nelson of Plainview, J. NJ.
Rhodes of Eastern, w. A. Parsons Of East
ern and w. c. bubbles of Eastern.
The Jury. at the request OF Attorney KEEL
ley for the defense, was placed in charge Of
Constable G W. Goff and will remain in
his charge throughout the trial.
Court convened at 1 o'clock this afternoon
and the opening statements to the jury by
the state and defense are now being made.
About sixty witnesses are subpoenaed
by the prosecution in the Breyer-Peters
murder case and forty by the defense.
Mrs. Breyer was the first witness and told
Of the tragedy at the farm. She said she
heard shooting in the yard and ran around
the barn and helped her husband, who had
been shot. She said Anna Peters came
around the barn and told N~iegenfnd not
to shoot her father, whereupon he turned
and shot her.
Mrs. Breyer became very excited while
giving her testimony. She was quieted by
the states attorney, but it was not long
before she became much excited again,
so much so that she had to be taken out
Of the room without finishing her testi-
mony.
Lena BTeyer, the 17-year-old daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. Breyer, was a good wit
ness for the state. She said she heard
shots that night and ran out of the house
to the barnyard and there, on the south
side Of the barn, she saw Niegenind load
ing a revolver and then she saw him shoot
her father. She then ran over to Ed
Wichman's for help. but found no one at
home. She then came back to the barn
yard and there saw her sister, Anna Peters
lying on the ground north of the water
tank, shot in the right side OF the head
near the temple.
Henry Carstens, the bachelor with whom
Niegenind stopped the night of the shoot
Ing, was called, but proved an unwilling
witness for the state. He refused to iden-
tify the hat he traded to Niegenfnd The
morning after the murder. The courtroom
was packed and standing room was at a
premium.

STOPS THE CANAL
Action Of Naval officers Anglers Government
of that Country.
SOME OTHER ROUTE MAY BE SELECTED
or United states Government Might
: Purchase Outright Franchise OF
French Company and Pay No
Attention TO Colombia.

.MAsHINGToN Oct 29.-The status to-
day OF the Colombian canal negotiations is
fhat both sides here are awaiting a de-
cision OF the Colombian government as to
whether Minister concha shall proceed un-
der bis original Instructions 20 present to
the State department the Colombian re-
Spouse to the departments proposal for a
treaty .
When the Response arrived in Washing
ton two. days ago the minister promptly
notified the STATE department Of the fact,
but he added to HIS notice the statement
in view of recent developments (meaning
events that had happened ON the isthmus
since the. note started from Bogo:a. Sep
TENDER IT, he had regarded Il as his duty
to withhold It until he heard further from
Ibis gove Nnent.
AS theeBtate department had in some way
come to know that the Colombian response
would. IL submitted. go far toward meeting
the desires .of-this government in the mat
ter ora canal Treaty. this delay was very
annoying. But assthe minister had his own
notiaR of duty In the MATTER II. was decided
that an appeal should be taken over his
head to the authorities In Bogota-
Accordingly a cablegFam. was sent to
United States Minister Hart at the Colom-
blan ~capitalk notifying him Of the action OF
the Colombian minister here NO specific
complaint was made, But It was desired to
make sure that the Colombian government
knew that the note had been held back.
ReasOn Of the Delay.
The matter of objection by our own off,
eihis is the attempt TO link the negotia-
TONS for a canal treaty. pure and simple,
with the discussion of the questions of the
correctness of the attitude Of our naval
officers on the isthmus. 1t is expected hat
the delay will not be long. for even II the
Colombian answer is not satisfactory the
United States ~goverpment Will still be
bound by the terms Of the s~poouer act to
proceed toward the construction of an
isthmian canal, and the only question to
be decided is as to the method.
There are two ways open, even in case
of an adverse attitude on the part of CO.
lombia, namely, either the United States
government to proceed without delay Il
complete the treaties with Nicaragua and
Costa Rica necessary for the construction
of a canal In those countries, or. and this
latter course would be adopted with re-
l~uctance. the government might purchase
outright the franchise of the French
Panama Canal company and go on reso-
lutely with the construction OF the Panama
canal. taking the ground that II would
have a right to improve its own property
without reference to any other govern.
ment. and taking no further notice Of Co.
lombia.

WANTED, A BANK
Millions of DOIIaEs in Deposits watt
Ing for II.

Opportunity makes the man. Opportunity
makes the bank. Opportunity created bank
depositors. II there are no banks there
can be no depositors. II there are banks
and the opportunity they offer is limited
II will limit the number of depositors.
There are hundreds of millions of dollars
on deposit in England which never would
have been on deposit but for the estab-
lishment by the government of the post
ONCE savings bank system. At the close
of the year 1874, after the hard work of
education In savings had been accom-
plished, there we're S115. 1877. 345 deposited
in the postofice savings banks of Great
Britain. The money had waited for the
opportunity which the new banking system
afforded.
Millions of money have waited a similar
opportunity in America. These millions
represent, in chief, the weekly wages OF
the great army OF craftsmen the country
employs, There has heretofore been no
opportunity for them to deposit. The banks
did not want their business, because under
| existing methods. 1t could not be handled
at a profit.
But the opportunity which will reach
these millions of dollars has come at last.
as IL was bound to come in time.
The United States Bankers Corporation
has secured control OF the Economic Bank
ing System, by which small deposits can be
handled at a large profit. The system has
| the approval of eminent hnanciers, among
them John G. Carlisle, ex-secretary Of the
treasury, who figures in the directory of
the corporation and is also its general
counsel.
The United States Bankers Corporation
will organize trust and deposit banks in
forty OF the leading cities of the United
States. The cities are selected. The work
Of organization is being rapidly pushed.
Each trust company organized and es-
tablished by the corporation will operate
the economic system of banking. This
system appeals to everybody. To the de-
positors, because it gives them privileges
which can be given under no other bank
ing system. To merchants, because 1t in
creases trade and reduces risk and loss in
business. To employers OF labor, because
il promotes economy and thrift and de-
velops business habits in their employees.
What the postofiee savings banks have
done in England, gathering in hundreds Of
millions which otherwise would be un-
reached, this new banking system will dc
for the United States. II will reap In one
Of the richest financial fields in existence.
