account of the recent material advance in wheat
the mills throughout Utah have generally ad-
vanced the price of -four from 10 to 10 cents per

In Sundays HERALD there appeared an item
stating that Mrs. Gleason, who kept furnished
apartments over the Times Office, and MI
Irvine, an insurance man, had skipped out
leaving several creditors in the lurch. The in
formation was gained at police headquarters
where it had been regularly reported by partie
interested, and the item was withheld for wv
days on the chance that the parties might T.
all right On Saturday the report was corrot
grated by one of Mrs. Gleason's creditors an
as there appeared to be no reason to doubt it
correctness it was published. 1t now appear
that so far as Mr. Irvine was concerned, tn
item did him an injustice, as ne was in no wa
connected with the matter, as circums lance
indicated. MIR. Irvine was away on business
but he has returned, and further investigation
shows he was in no way connected with tn
matter.
