are plain that W. G. =. Breckenridge Will
have a hard fight TO succeed himself as a
member Of Congress from the Seventh
Kentucky district
At least two opposing candidates are al
ready announced, and one more is expect
ed. Perhaps the most formidable Of these
is w. G. Owens, who was temporary chair
man OF the last Democratic National Con-
vention. Before leaving for Washington,
Mr.. Breckinridge was asked regarding
his candidacy for reelection and the fight
that had already commenced against MIN.
He stated that he would not submit 10
an interview at this time since he was
satisfied that the voters in the district that
had so unanimously honored him with the
position for so many years were willing
TO await the result of the pending Pollard
breach of promise suit at Washington.

MARSHAL BRIGHAM NOW.
Benton Steps Gut and His Successor
Qualities.
Ledyard NJ. Bailey Appointed as a Deputy
Cannon and Archer Reappointed-
Second District Appointments.

The political wheel of fortune made
another revolution yesterday, making L.
A. Benton private citizen and Nat M.
Brigham the possessor of the reported
latest federal Office in the territory. at
2 o'clock in the afternoon Mr.. Brigham
went before Judge Zane and took the
oath of office as United States marshal for
Utah and his bond was at the
same time approved. Mr.. Benton leaves
the Office with the good will and esteem
of everybody with whom he hes done
business during his incumbency.
Marshall Brigham, so far as his
management of this important office is
concerned, is an unknown quantity, but
his friends believing him to be a thorough
business man and able to readily get his
bearings at any critical time, are OF the
opinion that he will discharge his obliga-
tons creditabiy to himself and in perfect
accord with the administration of which
he is part.
Marshal Brigham made several new
appointments yesterday.
j. II. McGarry was appointed chief at
Beaver, and Thomas Lowe deputy at the
same place, both fling their bonds imme-
diately with the marshal.
The bonds of the appointees at Ogden
and Provo are also on file with the mar
shall.
Ledyard NJ. Bailey, who for four years
has been the Salt Lake agent of the Con :
tinental Oil company, was appointed as a
deputy. Mr.. Bailey will engage in Office
work and serve in the capacity of private
secretary for the marshal. He will quail
ify today.
Bowman Cannon, one OF the old stand
bys and very efficient officer, was re-
appointed deputy and was the first of the
late appointees to file his bond with the
supreme clerk. Deputy Archer was also
reappointed and his bonds were filed.

That Ticket Disnnte.

The article in yesterdays HERALD con-
corning the discontinue of the real estate
exchange over the returns from the recent
excursion seems to have created some dis
satisfaction, or rather misunderstanding
on the part of the Salt Lake & Los An
geles officials. 1t was not the intention
to intimate, and no intimation was made
by THE HERALD that there had been any
crookedness on the part OF anyone. The
Saltair pavilion, in itself, the grandest in
the world, is monument to the eagacity
and business integrity of the Salt Lake
& Los Angeles people.
The same dispute arose last season be-
tween the Garfield Beach management
and the Press club, and it is owing, in a
great measure, to the tendency to over
estimate the number of people in crowd.

Edgar and Phaeton.
Malta, June 3O.-The British cruisers
Edgar and Phaeton, of the Mediterranean
squadron, have arrived with the surviv-
ors of the battle ship Victoria, sunk in
collision with the Camperdown off Trip
oil, Syria. Great crowds gathered along
the water front and hundr went out in
boats to meet them. The survivors were
greeted with cheers as the vessels passed
to anchorage.
Representatives here of the Associated
Press had interviews today with several
survivors of the disaster and the stories
told by them confirm the report as to the
collision with the Camperdown as tele-
graphed from Beyerout.
A special dispatch received at Plymouth
from Malta confirms the cause of the dis
aster- 1t is clear beyond controversy
that If orders signalled from the Victoria
had been fully executed every pair of
ships wonld have come into collision.
Other vessels, however, observed what
would happen in tune to prevent dis
aster to the whole squadron.
