At the office of Mr.. Kletting, a HERALD
representative, yesterday, inspected the
plans for the Deaf Mute institute, now in
course of erection on the Deseret Univer-
sity grounds 1t proved conclusively that,
when completed, the building will be one
Of the most convenient and thoroughly APP
pointed in the west. In height, it will be
two stories and basement, but as the lat
ter will be mainly above ground, it will be,
to all intents and purposes, three-stOry
structure, 121X10 feet inches.
In the basement will be located the
kitchen, scallery, pantry, store room, din
ing room, laundry and drying room, gym
nasium and workshop, and in all OF these
there will be ample room for carrying on
the various pursuits.
On the first floor will be the study rooms
for girls and boys, separate and distinct
from each other, 22x40 feet, that for the
girls being on the west and the boys on the
east. In addition to the study rooms, there
are also four class rooms, 24X26 feet each,
two for the boys and two for the girls.
Then there are the living rooms for the
principal, reception room and office.
The second floor is devoted to the sleep
ing apartments. There are seven dOrmi-
tories, three for the gentler sex and four
for the boys, teachers bed rooms, bath
rooms, etc. Then there is considerable
space under the roof; the use to which il
viii be put remains as yet undecided.
Mr.. Kletting, when asked when the
building would be finished, said probably
within year. if the next legislature is as
liberal as the last one. There is little
doubt, however, but the roof will be on err
the snow flies once more. The building
will be heated by steam and lighted by ga
or electricity When completed it will b.
an ornament to the city and credit to tn
territory

A Slight Improvement in the
Demand for 1t.
THE DEAF MUTE INSTITUTE.
A Description of the Building-ln the Real
Estate Market-Brief Business
Bits of Interest.
THE DEAF MUTE INSTITUTE

The members of the Utah produce eX-
cbanoe report an increased demand for
old Utah potatoes, and say they will be en-
abled to place quite a large amount during
the next few days. Orders have recently
been received from Texas and other points,
and five or six carloads have been sent OUT
this week, and yet there is demand Tor
more. The price offered for them, how
ever. is not such as to command any great
amount of enthusiasm-35c per hundred,
sacked. being all that is obtainable. Still,
this is considerably better than nothing,
and farmers having stocks on hand IN GOOD
condition will do well to communicate at
once with any member of the exchange,
who will furnish them any information in
their power. The present demand is not
likely to continue for any length OF time,
however, as the new potatoes will soon be
on the market at such prices as must shut
the old ones out.
Reports from some sections of the coun-
try are to the effect that but compare
lively small area has been devoted to po-
tatoes this year, the farmers having IN
mind the big demand for wheat and the
fact that potatoes were drug IN the mar
ket last year. 1.-The result Will be, salo q
prominent farmer yesterday, THAT the
coming fall viii see the situation reversed
potatoes will be in demand and wheat
win be plentiful, that is, providing oul
crops are up to the average, and there IS
now no apparent reason why they should
not be, because, even III those sections
where a scarcity of water was feared, the
spring rains have prevented all danger of {
drouth, and have given the crops such {
start as to preclude the possibility OF

The Coal Crash.

81 do not know how you managed to dig
m the facts in relation to the status Of the
coal question: said a dealer yesterday, to
a HERALD man, but you struck the nail
souarely on the head. l believe speaking
for myself. that the D. & r. G. intends
withdrawing from the contract mainly be-
cause it sees an opportunity to make better
terms with the smelters and manufacturers
in this region. One thing IS clear, however,
a REDUCTION in prices on large outside orders
means. also, a reduction on the ms de-, or
retail prices. l look for cheaper coal this
summer. and your winter supply viii not
cost as much as it did year ago"
From another source it was learned that
the Denver & Rio Grande people have
great faith in the new mines recently
opened up by them at Castle Gate. They
claim that the coal being mined there IS far
superior to that obtained from othe
pleasant valley mines, it being very clear,
and containing many of the virtues OF an
thracite.

Died From His Injuries.

WATERLOO, Ia, April 1s.-[Special Tele-
gram to THE BEE. - Robert Shidley, of
Mason, was buried to-day. His death was
caused by burns which he received while
trying to save his wife from being burned to
death on April 5. They were riding to town
in a lumber wagon during high wind, and
the hay IN the wagon was set on fire by a
spark from his pipe. Before they noticed it
Mrs Shdley's clothing was on fire. He got
her out of the wagon and tried to smother
the flames. In doing so the dry grass beside
the road caught fire from her clothing, and
the heat was so intense that she suffocated
lying in her husbands arms. His hands and
arms were fearfully burned, the flesh COM
ing from them in shreds. He suffered in
tense pain, but fingered until Tuesday, last,
when ho too died. Mr.. Shidley was sixty
eight years old and his wife sixty-four.

A Raft BOat Sunk.

BURLINGTON, Ia, April 1s.--[Specal Tele-
gram to The BEE. THE steamer Everett, a
raft boat owned by the Burlington Lumber
company, was on her way from this city to
New Boston Bay this evening, when she was
struck about o'clock by terrific gale of
wind and sunk at the head of Otter Island,
about eight miles north of here. She carried
sixteen persons in all, and Us she sank in
about twenty feet OF water, all these persons
were quickly flung into the water. Ten Of
the sixteen were on the lower deck
or in other open parts OF the
boat and these all managed to es-
cape by swimming to the overturned
craft and clinging to the small portion of it
which remained above the water. Captain
Vincent Peel, Mrs. Harry Bell the clerk,
and her three-year-old daughter, George
Howard and wife, respectively first and Sec
ond cook, ana nurse girl, name unknown
were in the cabin. This was submerged and
filled with water, all but one small corner.
Mrs Howard found this and renamed in it,
calling for hep until the roof was broken In
and she was rescued almost dead. All the
others were drowned. Captain Peel leaves n
wife and several children, and Mr.. and Mrs
Howard little child. The body Of
Mrs. Bell has been rescued, but
the others are supposed to be
still in the cabin. The survivors called for
help until their cries were heard by Andrew
and Samuel Jacobs, who rescued them in u
sklf. They were taken to the Illinois shore,
where they made a fire, the only man in the
company who couldn't swim having escaped
without wettipg by climbing up the stanch-
ions, and he fortunately had matches in his
pocket The people are still out in the woods
unsheltered and a hard rain is falling. The
boat was valued at $4,000, but will be raised
with small loss

FATAL POLE CUTTING.
A New York Workman Killed and
Another Fatally Injured.


, NEW York, April 1s.-The removal OF the
wires ana poles on Sixth avenue this morn
ing was attended by an unfortunate accident
whereby Michael Early and Hugh Reilly,
hnemen employed by the department of pub
lie works, were dragged from a third-story
window by a rope attached to n falling pole.
Early being instantly killed and Reilly seri
ously injured
The men were engaged in staying pole
that was being cut down. When the pole
was chopped off at the bottom, the base slid
pulling both men from the window. Early's
body was picked up in terribly
crushed condition and was removed to
the police station, while Reilly was taken to
the hospital. Reilly had both bones Of both
legs broken, as well as the smaller bones of
his right foot. SIN addition there were severe
contusions on his hand and head. The sur
geon believes there is a possibility that the
spine was fractured. If this is so the
chances for his recovery are not good. Con-
tractor Busby and Inspector Roth, who
were III charge of the work on Sixth avenue,
and under whose instructions Early and
Reilly were working when the accident oc.
Cured, were arrested and taken to Jefferson
Market police court. Both men stated that
it was an accident which could not have been
avoided. A witness of the accident testified
that the pole was heavy enough to have
pulled the whole side of the house out, and
that Roth had been told so by some of the
men. Other evidence was given to the effect
that Roth was himself holding a guy rope,
and that the letting go of that rope caused
the falling of the pole, with the above fatal
result. Busby was discharged and Roth was
turned over to the Coroner's Office.
