ONE MORE SENT UP.
David w. Leaker Goes UP for SEM
tence and Begins TO Argue
His case.

David w. Leaker, the Eleventh ward
butcher, recently convicted of II. C. on a
one-count indictment, was called for sem
tence in the Third District Court this
morning.
Brother Leaker advanced to the bench
and stood nervously awaiting his fate.
The Court asked whether or not he in
tended to obey the law in the future.
Leaker started off on the same old
story about having gone into polygamy
before there was any law against it, and
about having tried to obey the law, and
told in dulcet tones how it seemed that
his efforts had been unavailing. He then
began to explain to the Court that he
| didn't see how it was that on the day OF
his trial nobody could understand the
exact position of his two houses; and,
starting out to explain how they were
two separate and distinct houses, under
the same roof, he would doubtless have
wound up chad he ever wound up at az
infinite distance. from the point the Court
was trying to reach.
The Court, however, cut him short,
and after he had said once more that he
didn't think he could promise, he was
sentenced to serve term of six months
in the penitentiary and to pay fine o
| 5000 and the costs of prosecution, and tc
stand committed until the fine and costs
are paid.

THE STODDART RAPE CASE.
Disgusting Particulars Unfit for
Publication.

The case against Frank Stoddart, the
young boy charged with committing rape
at Hooper in May last, came up for trial
in the Third District Court this morning.
The little girl Elizabeth King, the victim
OF the assault, was first put upon the
stand. She told straight story of how
she had been met upon the road while
returning from school, and how the fiend
whoever he was, forced her into the
lucerne patch near by and accomplished
his object
The girl pointed out the prisoner
Stoddart, as the man who assaulted her.
She said that she did not know him, and
had never seen him before the time of
the assault. She also stated that she
mad never before returned from school
alone, but had always been accompanied
by her sister and some larger girls who
lived near by.
The evidence of the prosecution proves
beyond doubt that the dastardly assault
was committed, but the defense made
good showing for the defendant, by way
OF proving an alibi The question rests
now simply upon the identity of the
ravisher, and there is apparently good
show for the defense to prove that Stod-
dart is the wrong man.
The evidence was disgusting in the
extreme and is therefore entirely
sighted.
AT the time our report closed, the
evidence was all in and the arguments
were about to begin.

The Stock Business.

The San Francisco Chronicle says the
Central Pacific Land Office is in almost
daily receipt OF various items OF interest
relative to the development OF the coun-
try along the road.
Rather gloomy reports are received
about the stock interests OF Nevada, Utah
and the region south extending into West
ern Texas, which have suffered this year
from the most extensive drouth that has,
it is said been known. In Eastern Ne
vada and Western Utah there is not
grass enough to feed the cattle, and the
alternative has been forced on the owners
of cattle either to ship hay to their stock
or to transport their stock to grass. Con-
siderations of an economical character
have determined many to ship their stock
to grass. Close examination has shown
them that this is cheaper than to buy
hay and feed it to their stock. In conse-
quence there has been a removal from
Eastern to Western Nevada, where grass
enough can be found to put them in con-
dition to withstand the severity of the
coming winter. Five thousand head will
soon be removed by rail from near the
Utah line to the vicinity of the sink OF
the Humboldt, and train OF thirty cars
will be devoted to this business alone.
Later in the season all will be transported
back to the range from which they came.

People who remember Zelda Seguin and
recall her triumphs with the Castle-Kel-
Observation-Disclosures combination
and see her in comic opera OF the Gilbert
and Sullivan repertoire, almost regret
that time has wrought such changes.
But there is a kind of glamour sur
rounding her name, and tender recol-
lection of the work she has done in
greater roles that adds more than an or
binary interest to such roles as the
Queen in "Iolanthe," and Katsha in the
"Mikado," when interpreted by such
an artistic
Miss Seguin has the proud distinction
OF being the best American contralto that
ever sang in grand opera, save, perhaps,
Adelaide Phillip. Her Azucena in
"Trovatore" was simply magnificent,
and in countless other operas, such as
Figaro" Martha" and Bohemian
Girl, her great voice was shown at its
best The charming lady has many adj
mirers here.

THE HAWTHORNE DEMURRER.
Judge Mcbride Begins His Argue
ment Upon the FaIiacIes of the
Indictment,

In the Third District Court this morn
ing Judge Mcbride began his argument
upon the demurrer, previously entered,
TO the indictment in the Hawthorne poly
gamy case. y
The demurrer is a general one upon
the insufliciency OF the Indictment. The
first point brought up is that the indict-
ment does not identify either the time,
place nor person concerned in the first
marriage. Mr.. Mcbride read the Terri
torial statute, under which the indict-
ment was made out, and proceeded to
show that the Indictment could not have
been made under any other statute. The
ground taken is that as the statute makes
IL absolutely necessary that the
time and place Of the first
marriage should be named, the
jury had no right to return the
indictment without first having ascer-
tanned these facts. Mr.. Mcbride said
that such an indictment as the one found
against Hawthorne gave the defendant
no chance to answer, as the occurrence
OF the previous marriage was so indefin-
itely stated that it would be impossible
for him to tell what it was he had to
answer to. He said that it might be that
the defendant had been married several
times before taking the step which con-
summated the ohense charged, and in
such case he would be entirely at a loss
to know for which of the previous mar
riages he had to account. lie stated fur
Their that the defendant had probably
been married several times before, and
each time legally married, and that if
such were the case he could not be
obliged to bring witnesses to prove that
he had been divorced from the previous
women or that one or more of them had
died. In short, the gentleman claimed
that the jury had no right to bring an in
dictment, to which man could not reply
without proving every action of his past
history.
Mr.. Mcbride was interrupted before he
was half way through his argument, but
he will soon have chance to finish what
he has to say on the point.

The Hewlett Case Continued.

AT the opening Of the District Court
this morning Mr.. Rawlins arose and
stated that he had several affidavits in
regard to the physical condition of his
client, Walter j. Hewlett, who stands in
dicted upon the charge of murder.
Mr.. Rawlns read one OF the affidavits,
sworn to by the wife Of the defendant,
which represents that the defendant is
subject to epileptic fits and that he is
taken with them sometimes once or twice
a week, and sometimes as often as twice
in one day.
Policeman Smith was then sworn and
stated that he had known the defendant
for years and that for the last ten years
he had been subject to fits and had often
fallen in the street with them.
Mr.. Rawlins presented other affidavits
to the Court and His Honor decided to
continue the case for the term, and an
order was made to that effect. The wit
nesses were all excused until re-sub-
p9naed.
Hewlett will be remembered as the
man who engaged in fight with one
Gordon, at Bingham, some three or four
years ago, which resulted fatally to the
latter. The trial of his case has been
pending for some years and the prospects
are that it will be pending for several
years more.

A Crooked Snintess.

The following is from last Mondays
Elko New independents: yesterday
morning, Sheriff Atwell received dis
patch from United States Marshal Dyer,
OF Salt Lake City, ordering the arrest OF
one Claude lie Roy, woman who was
supposed to be passenger on No. 2, and
a former resident of Zion. On the arrival
OF the train the Sheriff and his deputy
were promptly on hand, and from the de-
scription given had no difficulty in spot
ting their game. When the gentle Claude
emerged from the hotel dning-room, af-
ter partaking Of hearty breakfast, she
was politely informed that certain unfor-
seen circumstances required that she
should torego the pleasure of a visit to
the State Fair (she held ticket to Reno),
and Tor the time become the guest of the
Hotel de Atwell. After some quiet re.
monstrance the lie Roy consented to ac-
cept the Inequalities OF the Sheriff and
was escorted to the bastle.
The occasion for the arrest is unknown,
but from what could be gained
from the prisoner it is SUP.
posed that the charge is that of OBJ.
tanning money under false pretenses.
Being informed that she could return to
Salt Lake City at once or await the legal
process of requisition, the prisoner
waived the requisition and last night the
fair Claude, under the escort Of the gal
liant Sheriff, took the train for the East. "

THE EXPRESS WAR.
Gut Hates to Competitive Points
The Pacific Company Will
60 No Lower.

Since the breaking OF the pool between
the two express companies having their
headquarters in this city, quiet little
war has been going on between them,
and the prospects are that it will not soon
cease.
1t appears that the Pacific people
thought they had the worst Of the bar
gain upon which the pool was founded,
and so, at their first opportunity they
drew out to go it alone. The d. u X. u.
Company did not, of course, take kindly
to this, and soon after the dissolution
they began the cutting of rates. The
chief objective points are the stations
between Ogden and Denver which are
touched by both lines, and the
D. & r. G. Company is making a
strong fight for Colorado points,
The original rate to these points was $3.50
per hundred, and the Denver Company
has been cutting on this little at time
until it came as low as 80 cents per hun
dred The Pacific Company followed
until they reached the 81 rate, and they
have decided now that they can better
afford to let the d. & r. G.. have this
business than to make any further cuts
On New York goods, the Pacific peo-
pie made 0.5c rate, and are not likely
to go lower as they have the advantage
of Wells Fargo's eastern connections.
1t is claimed that the object of the fight
is to force the Pacific into another pool,
but ii this is the case those who ought tC
know, state that it will never be
accomplished. There are already ru-
mors of a return to old rates, andit may
be that a few more days will see the war
at an end.

A Great Millinery House.

1t would be strange indeed to see a
season pass by without noting some
changes and improvements about the
premises OF the enterprising millinery es-
adjustment of Simon Bros. This season
has again witnessed one of the surprising
but pleasing changes. The front, beau
titled by two splendid show windows
nearly reaching to the ground, has
donned its new garb for the autumn sea-
son, no small share of credit being due to
the artist who designed the splendid com
bination Of colors, artistically blending
one with the other, the finishing touch
being given by seven small gilt signs
upon each OF the seven iron columns Of
the building.
The stores within have that hustle and
cheerfulness which is Immediately noticed
upon entering a first-class, wide-awake
business house. No signs Of dull times
there. The proprietors, clerks, sales
ladies and even the boys are on the con-
slant jump, filling orders, selling goods,
delivering bundles and packages.
Anyone visiting this place of business
will upon leaving deem himself fully re-
paid for having gone to the trouble of
doing so.

interest TO this part OF the country, the
Omaha Republican says: "There appears
to be quiet understanding in Union
Pacific circles that the fast train scheme
will bob up again shortly and be put into
operation, Car Service Agent Thompson
is busily engaged now making out a new
time table, and Assistant General Super
intendent Dickinson arrived here yester-
day to help him. Several movements
have been made since the matter was
on before that indicate an early inau-
guration of the fast train system, and
things are drifting in that direction about
as rapidly as they can"
