REPORT ON
]. H. BOYD
The Public Works
Committee
Finishes.
SENATE MAY HEAR
DECISION TODAY
Many Conferences Held on APP
pointments and Outlook for
Harmonious Conclusion.

If the report of the committee which
has been investigating the condition
of the Public Works Department is
finished this morning, it will be pre-
scented to the senate. The committee
has finished its work of inquiry and
all that remains is to bring the evil
dence into form for submission to that
body. 1t is understood that there will
be no minority report.
The other committees are still hard
at work and there will be, it is thought,
several days elapse before the reports
will be ready for submission. The
committees are making thorough in
vestigations, and the Land Office COM
mittee, especially, are looking into
various subjects which were aired be-
fore the commission of senator's VINO
spent October in looking into govern
mental conditions.
The matter of appointments is still
hanging fire, and while it is said that
no definite conclusion has been reach
ed on any side, the opinion is freely
expressed that everything will be set
tied to the complete satisfaction of
both senators and executive, Confer
ences have been held between the Gov
ernor and members of the senate and
the Republican committees and the
-outleek is for unanimous action upon
the candidates submitted to the senate
by the head of the executive depart
ment. Senator Crabbe and Committee
man Carter spent an hour with the
Governor yesterday and, while they
would not divulge the results OF their
discussion, it was understood last
evening that an appointment to the
place made vacant by the removal of
Auditor Austin may be expected at
once. In fact, it may come to the Sen
ate today. The original intention was
to await action on all the messages OF
the Governor, and then act on all the
appointments at once, but this has
been abandoned and the outlook is that
the vacancies will be filled as soon as
they have been created by the joint
action of the Senate and the Governor.
Governor Dole yesterday afternoon
acted in the case of Auditor Austin.
The recommendation of the Senate
took such form that the Executive con-
sidered that the best course was to
simply send formal notification to the
former auditor that he had been sep
arated from the Office. The note con-
veyed this information in the briefest
possible language.
The session of the Senate yesterday
was brief and most formal, consisting
OF the reading of the minutes, with in
structions to the clerk to insert in them
the full report made by the various
committees. and the reading of an ac-
Acknowledgement by the secretary of the
Governor of the receipt of the message
concerning the appointments. The ses-
sion adjourned until this morning at
10 o'clock.

ASHES FELL OVER
WIDESPREAD AREAS
Sensational Stories From the Scene of the Vol.
canic Eruption in the Rich Coffee Districts
Of the Guatemalan Republic.

SAN FRANCISCO, November 90
With the arrival of the steamer City
of Para from the Central American
coast comes the details of the great
devastation wrought by the volcano Of
Rosario, in Guatemala, and the result
ant loss of life and destruction of mill
ions of dollars worth of property.
Even as Nero fiddled while Rome burn
ed, Governor Cabrera is accused of
feasting while death and ruin stalked
abroad in the department of Quezalter
ango
While thousands of people were be-
ing rendered homeless and were suffer-
ing for the necessaries of life; while,
they were appealing to the Governor
and to the American minister for aid,
nothing was done by either official to
relieve the distress of either natives or
Americans. 1t is said that Governor
Cabrera not only refused to send re-
lief to the stricken district, but that he
placed a censorship on all news in or
der to prevent information of the dis
aster being given to the world.
In the vicinity of the volcano Of
Rosario, which is small cone lying
at the foot of Santa Maria, all the cof-
fee fincas are covered with ashes, mud
and stones to a depth of from six to
twenty feet, and the loss of property
is complete, as the plantations cannot
be recovered. Thousands of acres Of
rich land now lie an arid waste, totally
irreclaimable.
The loss of life among the Indians
in the vicinity may run into the thou
sands, but it is said that no foreigners
were killed. Houses were crushed by
the weight of stones and ashes, and all
vegetation was so utterly destroyed
that live stock is perishing by thou
sands.
PORTO BARIOS (Guatemala), No
vember IA message received here
today from Guatemala City states that
another eruption Of Santa Maria vol
cano occurred last night. The eruption
was preceded by an incandescent fame
from the crater, which could be seen
hundreds of miles.
This was followed by terrific ex-
plosion which caused the buildings OF
Guatemala City to tremble to their
foundations. The eruption is describ-
ed as more violent that any that had
previously occurred, and it is believed
that every living thing within radius

DEPENDS UPON EARLY VOTE.
Frye Determined to Hold Bill as
Unfinished Business.
QUAY PRo-BEvERlDGE CON.

Washington, Dec. 10. When the
statehood bill was reached in the senate
on the second day from its set time
there was brisk exchange between
NJ. Quay, who favors the omnibus bill,
and senators who oppose it, regarding
its consideration.
Mr.. Beveridge asked that the bill go
over. He said few senators were ready
to proceed, as there had been little OPP
portunity for senators to inform them
selves, the committee report not being
presented.
Mr. Quay offered to let the bill go
over if a time was fixed for taking a
vote.
Mr.. Bate, representing the Demo
Gratis, said his side was ready to vote.
The suggestion brought out protests
from Messrs- Beveridge, Lodge and
Hale
Other senators made suggestions
about reasonable time to prepare for
discussion, and finally Mr.. Quay said:

pie about the admission of territories
in their platform, they can lie about
every other proposition in the plat
form. The air was full of rumors
about how the bill was to be defeated,
not by votes, but by obstruction; that
from day to day the vote will be post
poned until one by one the votes for the
omnibus bill are picked Off"
Senator Quay has been particularly
careful to see that the parliamentary
standing of the bill should be under
stood, and his remark brought from
President pro tenn Frye the statement

There probably will be an attempt tc
kill the bill by talking il TO sleep, and
the statehood champions will try soo1'
er or later to force a vote. If they car
do so in reasonable time, they will

The Grand Lama of Tibet.

An Indian traveller in Tibet who saw
the grand lama in 1882 thus described
him: The grand lama is a child of 8
with a bright and fair complexion and
rosy cheeks. His eyes are large and
penetrating, the shape of his face re-
markedly Aryan. though somewhat
marred by the obliquity of his eyes.
The thinness of his person was prob
ably due to the fatigue of the court
ceremonies and to the religious duties
and ascetic observance of his estate.
A yellow inter covered his head, and
it's pendent lappets hid his ears; a yell
low mantle draped his person, and he
sat cross-legged with joined palms.
The throne on which he sat was sup
ported by carved lions and covered
with silk scarfs. The state officers
moved about with becoming dignity"

Foot And nIouth pI.ea.e.

Washington, Dec. 1.-The depart
ment of agriculture has appealed to
the house committee to aid in stamp
ing out the foot and mouth disease
among cattle in New England. asking
that an emergency appropriation bill
of 81 200, 900 be made. The committee
is advised that there are about 100
herds which, in the opinion of the de-
partment must be slaughtered. De-
partment officials believe the disease
was brought through hay shipped
from abroad.

ONE OF SEVEN.
Only Seven Cities in the United
States With Banking Facilities
Equal to Hutchinson's.
First Nationals High Rank Is Due to
Progressive Enterprise and Conserva-
tive Observation-Disclosures, ST.
100000. 0O-Deposits Ex-
ceeding 100000 90.

Every citizen of Hutchinson and
every well informed business man in
Kansas knows the high standing of
the First National Bank of Hutchin-
SOD. They know that it has kept pace
with the growth of the city and has
year by year grown more solid and
substantial, more able to respond to
the banking needs of the community
Few even of home people know, how
ever, that this bank has made name
for itself and reputation for the City
of Hutchinson, which extends far be-
yond the limits of the State of Kansas.
The last report of the Comptroller
of Currency, Washington. D. c., lists
but seven cities in the United States
population of about 1O,0 600 which have
banks with deposits exceeding 81, o0O,-
boo. 90. One of these is Hutchinson, all
the others are in far eastern cities. In
all the west there is no other bank
with such a record. There are but
three other larger banks in Kansas
than the First National of Hutchinson.
One is in Topeka and the others at
teavenworth and Wichita. The Uni
ted States Treasury has selected the
Hutchinson bank as one of the govern
ment repositories for the state.
The great success of the First Ma
tional Bank is due TO the progressive
enterprise of the gentlemen who have
been its officers and directors during
the last twenty-five years. 1t has been
the policy of the bank to be an in
tegral factor in the public development
Of this part of Kansas. Realizing that
its own welfare is closely connected
with that of Hutchinson and Reno
county in particular and of Kansas in
general, the bank has sought in every
iignifed and legitimate manner to
advance the material interests of the
whole territory mentioned. AS re-
suit, Hutchinson is one of the seven
cities of 10000 population which have
banks with deposits of over a million
and total resources of a million and a
quarter dollars.
The savings department of the bank
Tor boys and girls pays 3 per cent in
crest on all deposits and has been a
source not only of direct, but indirect
benefit to the institution, since the
great Importance to the little ones of
heir tiny deposits must necessarily
.reate interest in the households in the
regular banking department and these
add to its prestige and patronage
through the parents, as well as ere
lting future clientele from the grown

Rhe officers of the First National
Bank are E. L. Meyer, president; L. A.
Bigger, vice president and w. Fl.

yether with James F. Redhead and B.
