AWFUL BLOW FOR WOMEN.
Lack of Faith Must Result From a
Recent Disturbing Discovery.


Recent Disturbing Discovery.
/ In these days when there is trepida-
ton in financial circles and the fear
that some foolish or malicious story
may discredit the soundness and reli-
ability of any institution, no matter
how stable and enduring it may be. it
cannot tighten the burden of appre
tension to learn that confidence has
been shaken in another of the great
repositories of the thrifty. one particu-
larly confided and trusted III by fem
mime depOsitors. says the st. Louis
Globe Democrat. Mrs. Frances Ster-
ling of New York placed $780, 900 worth
Of jewels and $500 in money in small
fiat box in her stocking, on starting
from Washington for her home at the
Powhattan apartments, New York.
and on arriving there found that the
box had worked hole in the stocking
/ and was lost.
This incident will appall thousands
in all parts of the country and cannot
fail to convince women that their faith

ankind-Of an hOnorably guarded
trust. Eut now what are we to think?
One Of these institutions has failed.
and failed utterly. 1t will not repay
cent on the dollar. 1t is the most
disastrous failure in proportion to the
capital involved that has been known
in our national history. No excuses

THE fact that our local railroad,
the Santa Fe, is putting on new
and improved engines, proves that
the managers OF the road see that
this section has bright future.
In fact, the increasing freight and
passenger traffic of the road makes
it imperative to add to the equip

THE common law does not rec
ognize that water may be abso-
lutely appropriated for any pur-
pose. A decision by the Supreme
Court of California is to the effect
that if one opens an artesion flow
of water that another can not open
up the same flow in other parts so
as to stop the flow opened up by
the first party. This seems to be
somewhat new as to the ownership
of underground water. And this
decision may mean something to
mining men in various localities of
this Territory. But the same theory
could not be applied to oil.

Davenport, March 13-The short.
age of Postmaster George Metzger, of
Davenport, amounting to $5,669.24, has
been made good, the last dollar being
raised among his friends. The in
spectors will make report to the
postoffice department department re-
porting the shortage and recommend
ing Mr.. Metzger's removal. They will
give the result of the examination in
detail which has kept them here for
two weeks looking into the affairs of
the office. Mr. Metzger, it is said, will
undoubtedly be removed.
His bondsmen refused to make good
any part of the shortage and have re-
fused to longer stay on his bond. 81.
Mr.. Metzger is we'll known to the
people in this section He is a popu-
lar man and we'll liked in Grand Army
circles, where he is also well known.
1t may be stated in justice to Mr..
Metzger that the missing funds were
appropriated through stress Of circum-
stances which, it is said, entities him
to great leniency in the estimation of
his friends. It is said that a relative
was threatened with arrest and punish
ment because Of criminal act AMI
that Mr.. Metzger prompted by the
kindness of his heart, helped the dis.
tressed one at the expense of himself.
There will be no prosecution, it is
said, but it is stated that another post.
master will be appointed undoubtedly.

Des Moines. March 11.--Bids Will %
asked this week on the constructor
Of forty-four miles Of the Dcs Moihes
and Southern railroad extending from
Winterset west through Greenhelu
and about fifteen miles southwest u
that city.
No estimate Of the cost Of the work
is made at the Offices of the ROAD ~
this city. None will be made. Han
road men estimate for prairie ran
road construction about $ll,O a
mile, including building bridges ana
tracks. Material and labor are hl5n
this year, the road between Greenneid
and Winterset Is not through the most
Lowell section of the state, and It IS
thought that the price may run IRON
SIS to $4,000. If 1t costs S20,OOO a
mile the work will cost $SSO,0O or al.
most million. it is bound to cost 10
exceed $780,
The right OF way for the road has
been bought for considerable dis
lance southwest of Greenfield as well
as between those cities and In them
The right of way in the towns mas
been cleared of the buildings and Is
ready for the work Of construction.
The right of way has been bought as
much as twenty-five miles southwest
of Greenfield, it is said, and the work
is rapidly pushing toward Red OAK,
whence the road is expected to run TO
the Missouri river at Nebraska City.
Bids will be asked on all parts II
the work. General contractors will be
asked to bid on the whole OF the con.
struction and separate bids II offered
will he received. 1t is probable that
the Bids will be opened within thirty
days and that work will begin early in
April.
None\of the financiers or railroad
men in this section have yet been
able to satisfy themselves with re-
spect to the backing which has rade
the enorn3ous investment possible. A
view of he map shows the territory
which the road will occupy to be the
best in the state and the general line
Of the read is farther distant from
parallel lines than would be possible
were it built anywhere else in the
state. Nevertheless the road appears
to have peculiar starting place and
no terminus. This has led to specula-
ton, including surmises, that the road
was branch Of the Great Western.
that it was an. extension of the Rock
Island, that it wss connecting link
between the Santa Fe and Des Moines
either over the Rock Island from Win
terset or some other point in that sec.
ton over the Great Western, and
some have said that the Northwestern
railroad was projecting it with view
to gaining Kansas City outlet from
Des Moines. The general impression
among Des Aioines business men is
that Mr.. F. M. Hubbell is back Of the
big enterprise, which Mr.. Cherry has
so successfully managed and which
now appears to be on it's fefet.

What Has Been Going on.
During the Past
n. Week
BLANCHARD LAW is ATTACKED
Its Constitutlonslity to lie Tested by In
snrance Companies in Federal Court
Nebraska Law Invalidated by Judge
McPherson's Decision.

Des Moines, March ia bill at
lacking the Blanchard anti-compact
law and asking the United States cir
cult court to declare the statute uil,
constitutional, was filed by eleven in.
sucance companies in the federal court
yeste day.
The lar is alleged by the insurance
companies in cGqtravention of the
fourteenth amendment to the federal
constitution, to sectsln 10 OF article ]
Of the constitution OF >the United
States, and to section 6, article |, OF
the bill of rights Of the constitution OF
Iowa.
The fourteenth amendment to the
federal constitution is that declaration
which provides that states shall not
pass laws denying persons the equal
protection of their laws or deprive
them of property without due process
of law, etc. 1t is on the basis of this
constitutional right that the Nebraska
anti-compact law, almost identical
with the Iowa statute, was declared
unconstitutional by Judge Mcpherson
recently. 1t is on this ground that the
insurance men place the most reliance
in the fight they have begun in this
state. The Iowa case will be heard
before Judge MCPHERSON, probably.
The Iowa constitutional provision
on which the insurance men rely is
that which provides that all laws of q
general nature shall have uniform
operation, 1t was on this section of
the state constitution that the iHsur.
ance concerns relied in the proceed.
ings in the federal court in Dubuque,
before Judge Shiras, a few years ago,
begun, to have declared unconstitu-
tional the statute requiring foreign in.
surance companies Is pay more taxes
than the domestic and local com.
panies; the court held that the state
had the right to collect license fees.
The second federal constitutional
provision which is cited by the insur.
ance men is that relating to the In.
hibition upon states not to pass laws
impairing the obligation of contracts.
Carr, Hewitt, Parker & Wright and
James c. Davis are the attorneys for
the insurance companies, and the for
mer filed the bill with Clerk E. r.
Mason of the United States circuit
cocurt yesterday. The suit is brought
in the name of eleven insurance com.
panies against the auditor of state 1t
prays the court to declare the law un.
constitutional and to issue an injunc.
ton restraining the auditor from en-.
forcing the penalties provided in the
law for violation.

to series of crimes which have mys-

Miss Gleason, an evangelist. When
pressed, the boy made confession
which implicated Hazen Rolf, who was
at one time an inmate of the reform

Thomas claims that he was forced to
participate in the crime under threat
OF violence from Jones and Rolf and
