SALT LAKE & PACIFIC.
President Hubbard Still Confident the
Money Will Be Raised.

President Hubbard Still Confident the
Money Will Be Raised.
W. E. Hubbard, president Of the cham
Der of commerce. has not given up the
Deep Greek railroad, and is still confident
that the money can be raised.
"Why, only yesterday he said to
HERALD reporter, zone man promised to
raise $25, 000 in cash subscriptions and
another man gave every assurance that
he would take from one to two thou
sand shares of the capital stock. The
trouble has been that nine-tenths OF the
four hundred have not expressed enough
energy to turn shovelfull of dirt, while
the men who went to work kept at it as
long as they could afford to neglect their
own affairs
s'This suggests that the best way to
raise the money is to pay the men who do
the work, - intimated THE HERALD man.
While Mr.. Hubbard did not see how this
could be done it certainly would be the
right way. If the Union Pacific or any
other road wanted to raise 100000 she
would pay the men literally for doing
the local work, and the most practical
way to get the Deep Greek road on its feet
is to reward those who are useful to the
company for value received.

Wonderland.

The Ideal Opera company continues to
draw big audiences at this amusement
house. Lecocq's tuneful music in
Gerofe Gerofa, seems to catch the
crowds no matter how often the critics
stigmatize it as reminiscent" Miss
Flossie Moore has installed herself as a
favorite, the triple line of gaily habited
dudes in front every night attest her
popularity with the gilded juvenile mas
cuiine element, and what could the soul
of light operatic prima donna desire
more.
There is absolutely no doubt whatever
that this operate organization will have
solid and enduring success in this city.
Commencing Thursday of this week,
another popular opera will be produced
| sIolanthe'' or "The "Peer and the
Peri.'' An entire new and novel feature
in the Curio hall will be the cowboy and
girl convention, some of the most noted
representations in this line being on ex-
hibition.
Tonight another OF the popular concerts
will be given.

WOOL RATES REDUCED.
A New Tariff in Eject on the Rio Grando
Western.

The Rio Grande Western announces a
material reduction in wool rates from all
Utah points between Thistle and Utaline
to Missouri river points. The rate on
wool in sacks, carload lots, is reduced
from 81 60 to S1.45; baled wool, carload
lots, from 81. 80 to 81. The new rates will
go into effect tomorrow.
A proposition is also before the Trans
Missouri Association to reduce the all
rail wool rate to Boston from $685. to
g. 10. The rate of the Rio Grande Western
has been cut in favor of the reduction.

as a movement that was bound to benefit
Denver in the largest way and aid in real
izing the prophesy as to the future pre-
eminence in the wide empire of the west.
APPROVED BY THE CHAMBER.
Mr.. jackson then offered the following
resolutions:
Resolved, That the report Of the committee
on railroad building just read be approved.
Resolved, That the president Of the board be
requested to act with said committee and that
it be directed to prepare tie necessary papers
for the organization by the board OF company
such as outlined in said report ana report TO an
adjourned meeting of the board for its action.
Resolved. That the public press OF Colorado
be requested to publish the report OF the rail-
road building committee and in every way Co
operate with the chamber OF commerce In
pressing the construction OF the Denver, salt
Lake q San Francisco railroad.
AN EASY GRADE PRACTICABLE.
Rev. Mr.. Wells made long and inter-
esting talk, tending to prove that the en-
gIneering difficulties to be encountered in
the construction of the line were not nee
essarily OF a formidable character. He
SAID the maximum grade would not be
greater than fifty-three feet to the mile,
and such a grade was less than that OF the
Burlington approaching this city.
Mr.. John z. Leet followed in approval
of the scheme. He thought that the pro-
posed road to Salt Lake would in time be-
come as profitable as the Pennsylvania
Central and would vastly increase the
commercial territory of Denver.
Colonel Platt said he had talked with
the California editors, who recently VS.
tied the city, of the scheme and the iniu-
ence it was likely to exert upon the COM
mercial future OF their own state as well
as that of Colorado. They were warmly
interested in it, and promised the move
ment their hearty support.
Mr.. Jackson's resolutions were then
adopted amid great enthusiasm.

AIMED At HIS Heart.
Despondent Frank Lawrence
Fires a Bullet Into His Breast.
ALL CAUSED BY DRINK.
A Sad Tale of Domestic Trouble and a
Wrecked Home.
He Abused His Wife, Became Hard
Drinker and Sought to End All by
Shielding, but the Wound
Is Not Fatal.

At midnight last night Frank Lawrence
in a fit of dependency caused by drink,
attempted to kill himself in the hallway
leading to his wife's apartments at 154
East Third South.
Lawrence is native of Iowa, Sc years
of age, and paper hanger by trade. Six
years ago he married Maud lookout at
Kansas City, and about two years ago he
came to Salt Lake with his family. He
has been drinking man for years and it
is said has i'll treated and neglected his
wife almost from the time they were mar
ried. His habits did not i'm
prove after coming here, and a
month ago he removed to Sandy, his
wife and two children accompanying him.
His conduct there was such that Mrs.
Lawrence decided she could no longer live
with him, and two weeks ago she re-
turned to her mother, on Third South
street, with her children.
On Friday, Lawrence appeared at the
place, but at the solicitation of Mrs.
lookout, agreed not to modest his wife,
and went away without seeing her. At
noon yesterday he sent note to his wife,
asking if she would let him take their
eldest child to the matinee. She sent
back note, stating that the child was i'll
and could not be taken out.
Lawrence then returned up town
and it is supposed commenced
drinking. At midnight he appeared in
the hallway leading to his wife's room,
and, placing the muzzle of a Al calibre re-
volver against his left breast, fred.
The report aroused people rooming in
the house, and on going into the hallway
they found Lawrence lying on his back,
but conscious. He was taken to room
upstairs, and DIR. Marshall was at once
sent for. He found that the ball had
passed through the chest, an inch above
the heart, and lodged against the shoulder
blade
SERIOUS, BUT NOT FATAL.
After makinga careful examination and
dressing the wound, the doctor stated that
while serious, it was not fatal, and I'M
less something unforeseen happened, the
man would recover. Lawrence never
spoke word after the shooting, and de-
clined TO answer any questions.
| HERALD reporter found Mrs. Law
renee in an adjoining room. She was
much agitated, and said she could ascribe
no cause for her husbands rash act ex-
cept dependency caused by drink. She
said that Lawrence had for long time
been threatening to commit suicide, and
that he had finally attempted to do so.
! A singular fact in connection with this
case is that when Lawrence was six years
old, his father committed suicide in Iowa
/ by hanging himself.

DEMoRAL1zED RATES.
The Reason Why the Wool Rate to the
Coast Was Advanced.

The Reason Why the Wool Rate to the
Coast Was Advanced.
Transcontinental freight rates are be-
coming more demoralized every day, and
the fierce warfare between the Southern
Pacific company, by its ''Sunset Route"
the clipper ships that round the Horn,
and the American Navigation company,
via Panama, has already affected Utah
rates to the extent of causing a material
advance on wool to the coast. This adj
vance was necessitated in order to pre-
veDt the shipment OF wool to the At
lantic sea board by way of San Francisco,
as lower rate could have been secured
by this route than from Salt Lake east.
The American Navigation company
was organized under the protection of the
San Francisco Merchants Traffic associa-
ton, with j T. Leeds as traffic manager,
for the purpose of fighting the Southern
Pacific company, and as transcontinental
rates by all rail were rapidly going to
pieces, the Southern Pacific company
asked permission from the other lines,
members of the tIanscontinental freight
rate committee, to permit the Southern
Pacific company, by its Sunset route, to
meet any competition they discovered
with the clippers or the Panama route,
without being compelled to stand the
delay necessary to put in new rates under
the rules of the association. This per-
mission was granted recently at Chicago,
because ali the lines felt that much of the
business would bave to be taken at rates
so low that they would be Improbable.
A new element has now entered into
the field. The Canadian Pacific cuts
under the rates of the Southern Pacific,
and makes connection with San Francisco
by steamer from Vancouver. AS Salt
Lake railway official put it yesterday, cit
looks very much as though transconti-
mental matters were becoming further de-
moralized, instead of improving, and the

A SHOCKING ACCIDENT.
The Little Daughter of DIR. Wright
Scalded to Death

The Little Daughter of DIR. Wright
Scalded to Death.
A most shocking accident occurred
yesterday afternoon at the residence OF
DR.. E. S. Wright, 72O East Brigham
street which resulted in the death of his
eighteen months old daughter Verda.
It seems that the servant girl had filed a
dishpan full of boiling hot water and left
it standing on the kitchen floor. The lit
tie child who was playing in an adjoining
room, toddled into the kitchen, and fell
backwards into the pan of water. Its
screams brought Mrs. Wright to the
rescue Immediately, but the little one
was terribly scalded. Everything posi-
BILE was done to relieve its sufferings, and
death came at 1890. The parents are al
most distracted with grief, and the sym
pathy of the community will go out to
them in their bereavement.
The funeral will be announced later.
