w. III. Little Injured

w. Fl. Little was quite badly injured
Monday by the collapse of staging on
which he was at work near the top OF
the second story of a lodging house on
Third avenue, Seattle. The staging
fell upon stationary engine. Tie
physician summoned ordered Little
removed to the Seattle General Hos
pital, but he "refused point blank to
60" According to the Seattle Times,
"He said he was in debt. He told the
doctor that no later than last week he
had sent his family away where living
was not so expensive, so that he might
save more money. His Indebtedness.
while not more than $50, seemed enor-
nous to this laboring man. DIR. Willis
pleaded with him. He said while his
injuries might not be serious, it wss
necessary to use appliances that could
be bad only in hospital. In falling,
Little evidently struck on his stomach,
as that part of his body, particularly
on the right side, was badly bruise d..
In spite of it all, however, Little
steadfastly refused to incur this addi-
tional expense. He said his brother,
who was with him, and who had been
slightly injured last week, could pro-
vide for him at home"

thirty days. This is an error. The 3
per cent rebate is allowed only on real
estate taxes paid in full within thirty
days after they become due.

THOUGHT OF HIS MOTHER IT MAY END THIS WEEK
Young Chicago Murderer Has Bloody
 Secrets to Tell.

Chicago, Nov. 29.-Peter Neider- meier one of the members of the quartette of young bandits who for the last six months have terrorized Chicago. in another confession today added several more crimes to the long list already charged against him and his companions Vandine. Marx and Roeski. With parental lover upper most ;n his mind, Neidermeier offered to tell Chief of Police O'Neill of n score of train hold-ups. burglaries and other crimes that he has commit - ted, if the rewards offered will only be given to his mother.
 "I want to know that my mother will be care for after I am hung, said the 21 year old boy who is now the self confessed murderer of five men.
 ''I am guilty of crimes of which you know nothing and for which innocent men are now suffering. There are re- wards offered for my capture and con viction. If you will guarantee that these rewards will go to my mother T will convict myself. I will confess crimes that will startle you"
 Chief of Police ONeill believes he is telling the truth and an effort will be made to secure a full confession.

The Lately Deposed President Does not Admit the Truth of a Rumor but His Manner is Significant.

San Juan, P. R.. Nov. 29.-General Wos Gil arrived last night on the German cruiser Fake. The Fake started at day light this morn- ing on her trip to San Domingo
 h. the course of an interview with representative of the Associated Press, General Gil said:
 No significance attaches to the fact of my travelling on the cruiser FallIe. United States Minister Powell offered me passage on the gunboat Newport to New Orleans. or Kingston, Jamaica. but I preferred to come to San Juan and the German officials kindly offered me transpOrtatiOn.'
 When asked if he were contemplat- ing urging the United States govern ment to establish q protectorate over Santo Domingo, the general placed his finger upon his lips, and waved his hand significantly, his entire manner in- dicating the truth of the rumor that such a step was the object of Senor Galvans mission to President Roost- welt.

Future of Republic Assured
 byRdtifiCatiOn of Treaty
A PART OF THIS C0UNTR
At Least Part of it in the Event that the Young Resublic Should Ever be in Need of Help-No Attention Paid to Colombian Movements.

Colon, Nov. 29.--The next event of political importance to the new repub- he of Panama will be the ratification of the canal treaty and its return to which is looked forward to with much interest as conclusively settling Panama's status. The ratifi- cation of the treaty appears to be con sidered by he government as the final step so far as Panama is concerned. absolutely binding the new republic to the protection of the United States
 After this has been effected it is thought on the isthmus that there will remain nothing for Panama to do. eN- cept to proceed under the security of the protection of the friendship of the United States with the development of her internal affairs. The possibility of war with or armed trouble from Colombia is not taken into serious consideration anywhere on the isthnlus and never is heard discussed officially or otherwise.
 The government officials seem tO think that in the event of any difficult situation arising they will have nothing to do but turn to the United States for wise counsel and guidance and that if help is needed by Panama the United States will supply it.

ThereWiII be Little Done by HOuSeOr Senate this Week

Doubt as to Whether the Extra Ses- sion Will Come to an End by Reso- luton or Whether it Will be Allow
 ed to Run irto the Regular Session.

Washington, Nov. 29.-The senate will not do any business other than of a routine character during the pre- sent week.
 It will meet Tuesday, and unless the house manifests a disposition by that time to reach a final adjournment, It will adjourn over to the following; Friday The understanding is that the senate will not originate resolution for the adjournment of the session, but some of the senators entertain the hope that the house will send ov CT an adjournment resolution net la ter than Friday.
 The Cuban reciprocity bill is ca the calendar as unfinished business. but no speeches will be made on it until after the beginning of the regular ses- sion of a week from tomorrow. The committee on military affairs will continue its inquiry into the case of General Wood during the week.
