A RAT IN THE AUDIENCE
Huge Rodent Disports Itself at the
Auditorium.

Work at the Auditorium today was
laid aside to permit employees to go
hunting. The object of the search was
a large rat which attended the perform
ance of "Leah Kleschna,' by Mrs.
Fiske last evening. The animal ca
vorted gaily thru the aisles during the
woment present. After the last act it
ran about blindlv looking for an exit,
and created much confusion. The ami
NAL was cornered and killed today. It
had got in by running up the belt from
the engine to the organ motor. No more
rats will be admitted to the Auditorium.

MRS. CODY AGAIN DENIES.
Insists That Reports Affecting Her
Are False.

North Platte, Neb., March 2. - The
hearing of the Cody divorce case clos
ed here last evening, with the cross
examination of Mrs. Cody. All day
she submitted to a fire of questions
from Chief Counsel Ridgley, for the
plaintiff, and only twice lost control of
herself, and then she made admissions
that will weaken her case materially,
in the opinion of counsel for Colonel
Cody.
On direct examination yesterday she
steadfastly denied all charges made by
Cody against her. He and she never
had quarreled, she said. He was kind
and she treated him in a like manner.
He was poor during the first few years
of their married life and had not pro-
vide(, well for her, she said.
Yesterday, smarting under the exam
nation she admitted that Cody had
provided for her in the early days as
best he could; that when he went away
orders were left with the post quarter
master to give her plenty of provisions.
and the sutler was instructed to see
that she wanted for nothing. Mrs.
Cody admitted that she quarreled with
Cody during the early days over the
saloon and tavern business because he
did not make enough money.
Again, while living near North
Platte, the coloners dogs were pois-.
oned and he took her to task for it, and

This Ii construed by some to mean
the reasons for opposing Peabody dis
appeared with the death OF Wolcott,
but Frewen will not confirm this con-
struction and many regard 1t as an
unmeaning remark.
Last night 1t was known that SIX re-
ports were made to the Legislature on
the governorship contest this morn
ing. Fourteen republican committee
men will recommend that Peabody be
seated; nine Adams adherents will IA
vor Adams retaining his seat one COM
mitteeman will advocate q compromise
by making Lieutenant Governor jesse
Mcdonald chief executive, while three
committeeman will offer individual re-
ports, the contents of which are not
known. The legislature Is not bound
by the report OF the committeeman.
1t Is probable both Adams and Pea
body will be given eight hours apiece
in which to present their case and leg
islators will be allowed ten minutes
each for debate. IT the Peabody report
carries that of itself will make Pea
body governor. Adams has decided In
that event to step down as gracefully
as possible. 1t is believed, however,
the matter will not be decided until
Friday at least.
Thousands of citizens from outside
towns are here to watch the contest.
but no trouble Is expected, altho there
are many gun fighters belonging to
opposing parties in the crowd.

.kuropatkin,. Army crumblina.

ST Petersburg, March 2.-The entire
center Of General Kuropatkin's army
seems to be in imminent danger of COL
lapse.
The Russians have been defeated at
the railroad bridge across the Shakhe
river after an all night battle, in which
the losses on both sides were enor-
NOUS.
The Japanese opened fire on Putiloff
(Lone Tree HilD with siege howitzers
yesterday afternoon. The hill, which
is the key to General Kuropatkin's CEN
ter position, soon presented the ap-
pearance of an erupting volcano. being
nearly hidden by clouds of dust and
smoke. The artillery is busy along the
whole front, distance of eight miles.
It is rumored that division on the
extreme Japanese right is marching
northward.
Although it is not admitted at the
war office, the general impression in
military circles is that General Kuro-
patkin may be forced to withdraw. Not
only is General Kuroki threatening his
communications, but the redoubts at
Putiloff and Novgorod hills, and even
the hills themselves, keys to the posi-
tion of the Russian center, appear to
be crumbling away under the impact of
terrible eleven-inch shells, such as
leyeled the fortifications of Port Arthur
and rendered the fortress untenable.
No troops wilS be able to retain the
position long, if the bombardnent
continues.

RAILROADS WILL GO TO LAW.
Will Not Obey Interstate Commerce,
Commission RuIinq.

Chicago, March 2. = Executive Off
cials of the western railroads have de-
cided to ignore the order of the inter-
state commerce commission requiring
them to charge no higher rates for
livestock than are charged for the
transportation of livestock products.
BY the advice of the attorneys for
the different roads the matter will be
tested in the courts, as the railroads
are agreed that it will be impossible
either to lower the livestock rates or
to increase the rates on livestock pro-
ducts. A reduction on the livestock
rates in compliance with the decision
Of the commission would mean a min
imum reduction of 3R cents and a
maximum of about 8 cents per hundred
pounds, and would affect fully 40 per
cent Of all the livestock traffic west
of Chicago. The railroads estimate
that compliance with the order of the
commission would mean an annual ag-
gregate loss to the railroads Of about
$2,00O,000.

RULES TO GOVERN DRAWBACK
Attorney General Moody Clears Up
Points Regarding Foreign Wheat.

Points Regarding Foreign Wheat.
Washington, March 2 - Attorney
General Moody, in an opinion received
by the secretary OF the treasury yes
terday, holds, in effect, that the draw
back on the export OF -four made from
imported wheat should be computed
according to the relative values of the
flour and other products at the time
and place Of manufacture. 1t also Is
held that where only part Of the pro-
ducts made from imported wheat are
exported 1t is proper to determine the
proportionate value of the same for
drawback purposes without allowing
anything for the increased price such
part would bring in the domestic mar
kets because OF the privilege of ex-
portation with right Of drawback.
The questions covered by the decis-
ion arose in the preparation of regu-
lations allowing drawbackNon exported
flour and its by-products made IN
whole or In part from importer wheist.
There was some question in Inc DEPART
lncnt as to whether the value of the
flour and it's y-products at the place
of manufacture or at the point of ex-
port should determine the proportion
ate amount of drawback to be allowed
on each. Inasmuch as the flour and
its y-products made from imported
wheat would be entitled. on exporta-
ton, to drawback at the rate of 20
cents a bushel, less 1 per cent, on the
amount Of wheat used and hence would
command higher price in the market
than the products Of domestic wheat,
tl1e question was raised whether this
increased value should be taken into
account in fixing the relative amount
of drawback to be allowed or whether
the value of the products for domestic
use should govern. The attorney gen
eral finds that the relative values at
the place of manufacture and for do
mestic use should be the basis Of ad-
justment.

Coon's testimony, which was develop
ed by much refreshing of his memory
by the attorneys, was that in 1903.
he made Mrs. Chadwick loans aggre-
eating from 100000 to $4,000. He was
given a certificate by Iri Reynolds,
the face value Of which was $150,00O

$4,000 to $30,0OO His bonus, he ad-
mitted, was to be about $4,000, besides
the regular interest.
Wasn't this transaction Of yours
with Mrs. Chadwick, a trifle extraordi-
nary?' asked Referee Remington, OF
the witness.
II mean in the manner Of it."
"Well, it was in this" conceded
Coons, "that Mrs. Chadwick wanted
nothing known about it, or her affairs" /"
Wuerst testified that for one loan Of
$2,5O0 he had charged a bonus to Mrs.
Chadwick of $500 in addition to to

him $16,500 for which he hold notes for
S22,5OO. For this he held as collateral
jewelry sufficient to cover the face OF
the claim and more, but Collector Of

Neither Auditor Carroll nor any Of his
deputies care to discuss the matter for
publication as the reports thus far
published in the newspapers are brief
and the Beuthiens may have been ac-

one that will make possible wholesale

1t is understood here the Beuthiens

trary to the statutes, which state that

The Institutes will now work in har-
mony and have a schedule Of dates for
the Institutes 80 that the dates will
not conflict. This makes 1t possible
to secure the best speakers in the
country to attend the Institutes and
speak at each. 1t has been difficult

as he could speak at but one or two
institutes without making long trips

There seems likely to be some devel-
opments over the state on the collat-
eral inheritance tax matters. Inves-
legations are proceeding in number
Of counties by the county attorneys to
discover whether or not there are es-
tates that have not paid the collateral
inheritance tax. In Benton county a
bout forty cases have been discovered
in which the tax has not been paid.
Some estates have been discovered
over the state where the. estates have
been settled up and the administrator
discharged. Under the law in such
cases the administrator is held liable
for the amount Of the tax. AS the
estate are discovered they are reporty
ed to the state treasurer and he gives
power of attorney to the county at
torney to proceed to collect the tax.
