The McCook tribune. (McCook, Neb.) 1886-1936, 1902-12-05
SENATE TO TALK NEW STATES
Trusts, Tariff and Reciprocity Will
Also Be Taken Up.

WASHINGTON-The admission OF
the territories of Oklahoma. New Mex
leo and Arizona as states of the un-
ion will probably be the subject of
most importance to receive attention
by the senate at the coming ses-
sion.
After the omnibus territorial bill
passed the house last season its
friends in the senate were so insistent
ON action and so strong in point of
numbers that in the interest of other
pending legislation unanimous agree
ment was reached that the committee
on territories should report next We'd
nesday, December 3, and week later
the bill will be come the unfinished
business of the senate. This means
that unless the measure is displaced
by vote Or by unanimous consent it
will occupy the first place on the SEN
ate calendar until disposed of.
1t is the current expectation that
this program will be carried out,
whether the committees report is IA
vorable or unfavorable, as the agree
ment contemplated consideration, re-
gardless of the character of the re-
port.
There is no definite information as
to what the committees decision will
be, but at the last session all the re-
publican members of the committee
except Senator Quay voted to defer
consideration, while Senator Quay and
all the democratic members voted for
immediate action, the result being
majority of one for postponement. 1t
is known that some of the republican
members favor an amendment of the
bill so as to provide for the admission
Of Oklahoma only, and it is the pre-
vailing opinion that the committee will
divide on this proposition, all repub-
lican members except Senator Quay
being considered favorable to it. How
ever, the transposition of one repub-
lican vote would insure the report of
bill to admit all three territories.

LEFT TO FREEZE
ROBBED ON THE PRAIRIE, THEN
DESERTED.
The FATE OF AN OMAHA MAN
Drugged by Bandits, All of His Mon
ey Taken, Then Left on the Desert
Unconscious-Feet Badly Frozen
When Found.

RAWL1NS. Wyo.-A. H. Bree, en-
ployed by the Flato Commission com,
pany of South Omaha, was found in a
railroad cut west of town on Thursday
morning
His feet were badly frozen and he
had been without food since Sunday
noon. He was taken to the state hos
pital at Rock Springs, where both legs
will probably be amputated.
Bree tells an almost incredible
story, but his appearance certainly
bears out his statement. He says he
arrived in Rawlins Friday from his
home in South Omaha. Sunday he
met three men who said they had a
bunch of sheep three miles from town
that they would sell cheap.
Bree accompanied them to the place,
but the sheep were not to be found.
One of the men suggested they sit
down on a rock, eat lunch and rest
and then continue the search for the
flock. Bree assented and remembers
nothing that occurred after he par
took of the lunch
He regained consciousness during
the snow storm of Tuesday night.
His feet were so badly frozen that he
could not stand and he was almost
famished. With the lights of the
town as a guide he started to crawl
the three miles. All night he kept up
the snail-like pace over the snow-cOv-
cred ground, his hands and knees torn
and bleeding. At daylight he crawled
into the railroad cut and was seen by
the section men who brought him in.
When Bree went out on the prairie
with the three strangers he carried
$3.50 in his pockets, but when he
awoke from his long sleep the money
was gone. The authorities are salts
fled the strangers doped Bree, stole
the money and left him on the prairie
to die. There is not a single clue to
the identity of the would-be murder
ers.

Has Enough of Public Life.

WASHINGTON-After a years SER
vice Adam McMullen has resigned the
position of private secretary to Sena-
tor Dietrich to engage in business in
his own behalf at his home. Mr. Nc
Mullen came to Washington five years
ago and after graduating with high
honors from Columbian Law college
accepted position in the war depart
ment, which he held until appointed
Senator Dietrich's secretary last year.
He has served the senator efficiently
and was requested to remain in the
position, but Mr. McMulIen decided
that it was better for him to adhere
to his original intention.

NEBRASKA is TRIUMPHANT.
Winds Up the Foot Ball Season with
Great Victory.

LINCOLN-The foot ball season of
1902 at the University of Nebraska
was terminated Thursday in a blaze
of glory. Before 5000 people, the
greatest crowd that ever assembled
about Nebraska gridiron, the unbeat-

this season or even being scored
against, on the record claims the
championship of the west. 1t defeat

Wisconsin and Chicago, against which
Nebraska did not play. Michigan on
Thursday also defeated Minnesota,
and while it was by larger score than
Nebraskas victory, it was scored
against in this game, as well as sew
eral others during the season.

Quesada Hopeful for Treaty,

Observation-Disclosures a brief
call on the president Friday by Min
lister Quesada OF Cuba, there was some
incidental reference TO the proposed
reciprocity treaty between the United
States and the island. Minister Que
sada hopes there will be some tan
gible results on the subject in a short
time. The minister's object in calling
on the president was primarily for
the purpose Of informing him that his
advices from Havana showed that the
disorders growing out of the strike had
terminated and that quiet had been
restored.

Burglars Get Away with Two to Four
Thousand Dollars.

Thousand Dollars.
BANCROFT, Neb.-The Bancroft
bank, owned by J. E. Turner, was en-
tered by burglars Monday morning
about 2 o'clock. Entrance was obtain
ed by use of a skeleton key to the
front door.
The building is a one-story brick.
The safe was not kept in a vault,
which made it easier work for the
burglars.
1t is not known exactly what amount
was taken, probably from $4,000 to
$4,000.
All the cash on hand is missing, ex-
cept S1.25, which was found in the
wreck in the morning.
Two explosions were made, the first
one on the outer door, which blew
it across the room and almost through
the brick wall. The second was on
the inner steel chest and was a clean
job.
