WILLIAMS
An Interview With the Demo-

The Truth About the Reports that A. L. VIII

The Tribune yesterday morning endeav-
ored to shield its candidate for collector,
A. L. Williams, and have it appear that
the Democratic candidate opposing him, NJ.
b. Sowles, had, in an unwarranted manner
voted to affidavits, etc, signed by Williams,
TO prove that Mr.. Sowles was villain OF
the deepest dye, and to boost up Williams,
Both candidates have been in the field
nearly a month, and for the Tribune to
bring in at the last moment, as il would,
boomerang upon Mr.. Sowles, man whose
very name disarms criticism, is simply
sewerage work.
A HERALD reporter last evening asked
Mr. Sowles for a statement as to what he
had said about his competitor, and that
statement will be believed by sll who know
him. MIR. Sowles said: II went into Nc
Cornick's bank last Friday 10 cash a check.
Mr. Mccormick hailed me and entered into
conversation upon the county collectorship.
MIR. Mccormick brought up the report
about Williams ambling, and / acknowl-
edged to him that / had heard Of IL. In
fact mentioned the fact to Mccormick that

standing. Only two days ago long article
upon his record was written for publication

ments of public Office are not so enticing

SODA SPRINGS, Aug. /, 1S91-[ Special
correspondence OF The HERALD. THE
Jay Gould train of one engine, three pas
senger cars and one baggage car has lain
quiet at Soda Springs for a week past.
One car is devoted to Mr.. Gould. the other
TO Mr.. Clark. the other to MIR. Dickinson
ana the engine is kept to transport the
train wherever il has a mind to 10. The
movements of the party are shrouded in as
much my stery as those of the Car of all

solely to driving around the excellent
roads, and the fishing and hunting are
done by Mr.. Clark and the boys AS far
as have been able to observe, the party
has not been inordinately successful in its
sporting pursuits, and If Mr.. Gould's
table relied on the fish and game
secured by mis- friends, he would be in

very gray and his face is pale; mis- hand
shakes when ne lifts the ightest weight,

Dickinson, who does not seem to like this
enforced quiet. He pulled out for Salt

NEARLY FATAL RIDE
A Party of Ladies and Gentlemen
Almost Dashed to Death.
DOWN THE CRESCENT TRAMwAY
While Descending the Steep Incline They
Meet an Approaching Train Coming
on at Full Speed.

A party Of Salt Lake ladies and gentle
men went to Park City yesterday to visit
the great mines. 1t consisted of Mr.. Nc
Kone, a wholesale tobacco merchant OF
this city, and his estimsble wife; Miss
Boutwell,, Mr.. II. G. Coffan. chief clerk of
General Passenger Agent Bennett, Of the
Rio Grande Western; Miss Davis a cousin
of the late Jefferson Davis, president Of
the Southern Confederacy, and Mr.. Gif-
ford, OF New York city. II. NJ. Hinsdill,
secretary of the Crescent mine, was also
on the car.
The people had passed the day pleasantly,
penetrating the dark chambers OF the Ores
cent mine, and were flush of adventure and
daring.
Thus elated they mounted the car for the
Crescent tramway. Persons familiar with
II know OF its picturesque dangers both
from the steep incline and the narrow
ledge on which IL is almost suspended in
the air, and that any accident causing the
car to leave the track would hurl the oc-
cupants down yawning chasm OF a thou
sand feet.
To pilot the car with its precious con-
tents down this path OF danger the distin
guished niece of the dead leader OF the
confederacy was placed at the brake. Down
the car dashed. Faster and faster il made
It's mad descent, yet all the company
laughed when u timid person whimpered.
AL was well, and the canon breezes
Tanned the bloom of roses into the cheeks
OF the faces OF the fair passengers. when
all at once a locomotive stared at them but
few hundred feet below. 1t was coming
on at full speed with a train attached 10 il.
In another moment the car would crash
into tue black monster and all its happy
inmates would be dashed to death.
The lady at the brake was first to sight
the danger, and with rare presence of mind
she wound the chain as tightly as she
could.
Jump, Jumpl Your only hope is in
iumping!n cried Coffman, whose railroad
experience told him the chances OF a col
lislon. The ladies were first to leap and
they sprang against the rocks on the high
side OF the track. The men jumped the
other way, and had but a narrow ledge TO
rest on, the mountain at this side being
nearly perpendicular. Just as the car
touched the locomotive il came TO a stop,
the brake put on by Miss Davis having done
its duty. Miss Boutwell, tainted, and was so
severely Jared that IL took two hours to
resusciIate her. Mrs. Mckone was bruised
about the face. while Miss Davis escaped
unhurt.
Mrs. Mckone was taken to the home of

Crescent mine, aud every attention posi-
ole was shown her and the rest of the party

CRUSHED TO DEATH
Jimmy Lawson Killed by an
Elevator Accident
n THE TEMPLETON HOTEL.
While Absorbed In Cleaning the Windows the
Lift Rises and Presses Him
to the Ceiling.

A shocking acciden: occurred at the
Templeton hotel yesterday morning. which
resulted in the deaf of Jimmy Lawson,
the elevator boy.
1t seems that at about 10 80 o'clock, the
elevator was rising slowly from the fourth
to the fifth floor. The boy was standing
on chair in the corner of the elevator, en-.
gagged in cleaning the windows. To &C
complish this, he leaned out through the
opening and was wiping the glass. He
was evidently so absorbed in
his occupation that he failed to
realize the near approach OF the elevator
warning came when his head was caught
between the ceiling and the side OF the ris
ing elevator, and a guest who stood near
the shaft on the fifth floor heard him cry,
''Stop the elevetor, step the elevator -
This was followed by a gurgling sound as
the life was crushed out of the unfortunate
lad, and when the guest got 10 the elevator
he beheld the boy in the position indicated.
The guest jumped into the elevator and
reversed it, releasing the victim, whose
lifeless body fell into his arms.
A physician was at once called, and upon
examination he found that the lads back
had been broken, so that his sufferings
were but momentary.
The boy was about 10 years old, and had
been in the service of the hotel for six
months, but he had been running the eleva-
tor only month. He was a general
favorite with both employees and guests.
His parents. who are old residents of
this city, live on Second South street, be-
tween Fifth and Sixth East, and the
mother is Frustrated with grief over her
boys sad death. The body was taken home
shortly after the accident, but the time for
the funeral has not yet been announced.
No blame can be attached TO anyone for
the accident as it was due entirely to the
carelessness of the boy.

THE BASEBALL GAME
The TailOrs Down the Evans Men
in Fine Shape.
Lame Shoulder Knocks Barker Out Of the
Box-A Large Crowd in Attendance
The Score 8 to 3.

The game Of base ball between the NJ. r.
Evans nine and thu London Tailors at
tracted the largest crowd OF the season at
National park yesterday afternoon. The
fact that a 800 purse was hung up for the
winners no doubt had something to do with
the large attendance. Unfortunately for
the Evans men, their pitcher, Barker, was
handicapped with lame shoulder, and
during the two innings that he pitched. he
was batted all over the field by the Tailors
Gotschell then went into the box, but he
was unable TO hold the Tailors down, al
though he was-well supported in the field.
A number of fine plays were made, and the
crowd was well satisfied, although the
game was not close enough TO be very ex-
citing at any stage. the Tailors won by a
score OF to 3, as follows:

The New Union Pacific Time Table Went
Into Effect Yesterday.
Grasshoppers held up Jay Gould's train

There appears to be no doubt about the
coming sale of the Pacific Short Line. The
order has been prepared in Sioux City and
will be published in q few days. Septem-
Der Goth is named as the date when the
road will be offered to the public The
conditions of the sale insure the payment
of all claims against the road, but does not
protect the holders Of the stock, who will
not be sin itr until the last moment There
are those who look upon the sale as being
more of benefit than otherwise, as they
believe that it will settle several questions
that have delayed and promised to further
hinder the construction of the line.
The report is revived that this week will
see the adjustment Of all tourist sleeping
cars on the Union Pacific. The reasons
given for this action are that the tourist
has become so popular as to seriously cut
into the revenues of the Pullman service.
To q man up q tree, It would seem as
though opposition to the Pullman monopoly
should be encouraged rather than frowned
down upon.
