| Nebraska CAPITOL'S WEST WING MAY FALL State Board Has Made Call for Eeti- mates of Amount Required to Fix It Up. KEPT THE SITDATION QUIET (From a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, Nov. 13.—(Special)—Plans have been drawn and a call for estimates made by the board in charge of the state house for the purpose of doing something to save the west wing of the ancient structure from falling down on top of the people who are seeking to earn their bread by the sweat of their brows work- ing on the inside, This is something entirely new and un- looked for In s house conditions. It has been known for several vears that the east wing of the bullding was on the verge of collapse and considerable money has been laid out in an effort to keep the southeast corner from falling out, the foundation having already settled about eight inches, but nobody knew that the ‘west wing was in a dangerous condition auntil about a week ago when a part of the foundation in the basement crumbled and fel] inside. Matte- Kept Quiet. The matter was kept quiet by the board, but the fact that estimates had been asked for at the time indicates that the board considered the matter serious. About $75,000 has been pald out in the last four or five yearas on the old shell 4n en attempt to get it in condition so that people who had taken a chance on ® political job might have a show of serving their terms without having to call on the undertaker. Now it appeara to be a pretty good chance that some- time, if something is not done pretty #oon, the state may be called upon to pay heavy damages to the families of those who some day may be burifed In the ruins of the shaky old buliding. It may need some such calmity to convince future legislatures that the state really needs a state house which may not be taken by visitors to be one of the old ruins found tn Mexico moved to Ne- braska.
