The City Council IMPLICATED

The case Of the Ogden City Electric
Light company against Ogden City ct al,
came to conclusion in the First district
court yesterday. The case, because of the
peculiar manner in which it came about,
has caused the public to watch the progress
OF the proceedings before Judge Miner
with interest The entire city council of
Ogden is implicated in the case The Citi-
zens' Electric Light company composed al
most entirely of members of the city coun-
cil5 have an electric light plant almost
completed aad ready for operation.
They hive made contracts to fur
nish lights TO individuals and firms
about the city, and have a
contract already signed with the city off,
Gals (themselves) to light the streets of
Ogden for term of years. Thus drawing
the funds OF the city for their own personal
benefit, and crowding out the Ogden CITY
Electric Light company, who at present
light the streets from plant located in the
Ogden canon.
The Ogden City company feeling that a
great injustice was being done them, and
as a scheme that is seemingly fraudulent
one, was being exercised to deprive them
OF their franchise, they went before Judge
Miner and prayed for an Injunction issue
TO prevent the payment of public moneys
by this city to the Citizens company, and
from fulfilling the contract heretofore
made with them.
The case was holly argued, and almost
every technical point of law was brough,
out. The Injunction was granted.

The switchmen,s Strike

Hardly wheel turned in the Union Pa
citic freight yards in this city yesterday,
on account of the switchmen's strike.
No passenger trains and no freight was
handled, only through the efforts of the
yard and train masters yesterday Regard
less of this, nearly all the passenger trains
left the depot on time.
The swltchmen made no effort to stop
those at work, nor showed any signs of de-
monstrations of the loud order, but re-
NAMED calm and disposed in the waiting
room of the union depot a greater part OF
the day.
Several of the strikers were seen by a
HERALD reporter, but they did not feel in
clined to talk about their grievances with
the Union Pacific company. However,
they felt free to state that several helpers
had been, discharged and that they de.
manded their reinstatement, and an ad-
vance of % cents day for the night crew.
The yardmaster refused to talk on the
subject at all, but he felt certain that the
trouble would not last long, as it would be
a very easy matter for the Union Pacific
company to get men to take the strikers
places at this time of the year 1t was re-
ported that the committee of switchmen
who went to Salt Lake to wait upon Man
ager Ressiguie, were refused recognition
by that official. But message from him
yesterday contradicted the statement [,
is understood that Superintendent Mertz-
himer will be in the city today to hear the
grievances of the switchmen;' and will
make an effort TO settle the difficulty. II

the most influential factor in the situation this

Her Home Life, Her Industry and
Her Thought for the Poor.
A London correspondent of the Boston
Transcript who visited Ellen Terry's
home at Barkston Gardens. South Ken
sington, says: Admitted into the
house. l was conducted up broad stair
case, broken by one of those delight
fully large landings which in summer
are equal to another room, papered
with striking design of magnOlias in
shades of terra-cotta, and ornamanted
with several prints of Mr.. Irving and
other celebrated actors. Passing
through heavily curtained doors, | found
myself in the drawing-room. or rather
presence chamber, where Miss Terry
gave me kindly welcome.
As all those who have had the priv
ilege of seeing her know, the distin-
guished actress is, like her quasi-name-
sake of Troy, ''divinely tall'' aud most
divinely fair; and nothing could be
more charming than the picture made
by my hostess, as she lay on a broad
sofa, surrounded by friends. They
were not sitting at her feet in the Ian
gorous attitudes of aesthetic estacy,
and at once became aware that if their
tongues were busy their dett fingers
were still more active. Miss Terry her
self, attired in becoming tea gown of
gray corded silk. with ruffles of white
mousSeline de sole at neck and wrists,

were welding their needles and other
instruments of the textile art like so
many Penelopes.

to remark on the industry of the party,
I'VE all work: L keep that basket full OF
odds and ends of things Tor the poor.
When my friends come to see me they
can take their choice of knitting, GRO
cheting or sewing, and we use our need
les whilst we talk"
A beautiful old lady with large, gentle
brown eyes and white hair, reminding
one of New England grandmamma Of
last century, was presented to menas
my friend, Mrs. Rumbold," and in her
l recognized striking figure at
Lyceum first nights. Mrs. Rumbold,
who many years ago came to live with
Miss Terry as her companion, is trea ted
by her charge with truly filial care. and
Miss Terry always considers that one of
the grandest successes of her life has
been that, through her, this dear old
lady'S existence is one of peace and
happiness. II.
Mrs. Rumbold has been of great
service to ''her Nell'' in protecting her
from that Unsuitable pest. the begging
letter-wrIter. Before her time, Miss
Terry, whose heart is always touch ed
by tale of distress, used to spend half
her income in relieving the fictitious
wants of profesSed mendicantS; but
Mrs. Rumbold insisted on taking charge
OF her friends correspondence. and
since then impostors have not TO und
the trade quite so profitable.
