May Get the Convention.

Chief Devine of the fire department,
is working hard to secure the pledges of
a sufficient number of chiefs of fire de-
partments to ensure the holding of the
1885 convention of the National Association
of Fire Engineers IN Salt Lake. Already he
has received a. number of favorable re-
plies from the most prominent and infiu-
entail chiefs in the country. On Aug. IA
the twenty-second annual convention of
the association will be held in Montreal,
Canada, and an effort will be made to in
duce the city council to send Devine to
that convention. 1t would certainly be a
connection the F'iremen's Herald pub
lisnes the following address:
National Association of Fire En-
gineerS, Office of Secretary
Wyoming, o., June, 1894
10 the Authorities of the Several Cities
and Towns Throughout the United
States and Canada:
Your attention, is respectfully called to
the Importance of considering the ad-
visibility of sending the chief or a rep
resentatlve of Its fire department to the
twenty-second annual convention Of the
national association, which will assemble
at Montreal, Canada, August IA, 1894
Whether the chief receives a salary
ing should be borne by the cities and
towns because they derive the benefit
from the same. The chief, IN making the
trip, is endeaVoring to qualify himself by
observation, the better to serve the de-
partment He does not go for his own
personal pleasure. His purpose is to post
himself on the latest Improvements in
fire apparatus; the most approved meth
DDS of eXtingu1shing fires, and, in gen.
eral to avail himself of the wisdom and
experience of others. The cities and
towns can well afford to pay such ex-
penses in securing this information.
The exhibits at this convention will
be the most extensive ever witnessed at
any previous meeting. Extra efforts are
being put forth to have all the latest i'm
provements in fire eXtinguishing and life
saving appliances on exhibition and test.
These exhibits will enlarge the ideas
and broaden the views of all present.
The impression made will bear fruit in
improving the departments throughout
the country. Many of our members
have been connected with the associa-
ton since it's organization in 1873, and
do not hesitate to acknowledge that the
information gained from their inter
course with other chiefs, has been of in
calculable value to them.
We trust you will instruct your chief
to attend the convention and request,
on his return, report of tne proceed
ings.
A cordial invitation is extended 10 the
mayor, fire commissioners and ne com
mlttees of ALI cites and towns to att
tend our meeting.
Reduced rates have been secured on
railroads.
President
HENRY A. HILLS. Wyoming, o.,
Secretary.

THE ANDERSON DIVORCE
THE SUITS IN THESE COURTS VIII. l.
BE ABANDONED.
Mrs. Anderson VIII Go to Chicago
and There Seek For Il Dissolution
of the NUptial Ties.

Judge Anderson yesterday obtained
an extension of sixty days in the time
allowed for him to file his demurrer and
cross complaint to Mrs. Anderson's suit
against him for divorce.
The indications now are that neither
of the suits will ever come up in the
courts in this territory and no more
complaints or documents, unless it be
for the dismissal of the suits already
entered, will be filed in these courts.
1t is stated on good authority that
the parties have come to an under
standing in order to avoid washing
dirty linen in public.
Mrs. Anderson will go east, enter a
suit for divorce, probably in Chicago,
on the ground of desertion or failure to
provide which will not be contested
and the chains which are CALLING to
both will be severed.

AFFAIRS OF THE CITY.
PROPOSED cURTAILMENT IN SOME
Of THE DEPARTMENTS.
intendent Daley is in Charge-At
the Sewer-Water Commission.

Mayor Baskin views with considera-
bic alarm the proposed inroads into
several of the departments of the city
by the council and is of the opinion
that reductions might be made in the
less important branches in order that
others of vital Importance may be pro-
tected and enabled to carry out their
work properly. He has always looked
upon the health, police and fire depart
ments as the most worthy of considera-
ton at the hands of the municipal au-
thorities. with the waterworks close
fourth According to the investigations
of the finance committee the city can
not dispense for the keeping up of her
service more than the sum of $4,000
monthly, exclusive of the regular sal
airy roll and the payment of interest.
The mayor contends that his original
report of the departmental expendi-
lures, in which he placed the amount
at $4,000, with the statement that even
that sum might be rudeced, was per-
fectly correct, and cites the report of
the finance committee to verify it.

Jordan canal. The gentleman has been
on the commission for two years past
and has given entire satisfaction. The
board is now made up of Chairman Do
remus. of the board of public works,
for the city. John Babbott, for the far
mers. and NJ. B. Sowles, representative
of the interests of all parties. The Sc

MAY BE VETOED.
Mayor Basl1in Does Not Approve of
the Proposed Bond Sale.

Mayor B1SlSin Does Not Approve or
the Proposed Bond Sale.
The flank movement of the majority
of the members Of the city council last
night in ordering the sale of the
twenty-five copper plant bonds the sale
to be made by the board of trustees in
whose hands the bonds have been since
their issuance, caused a great deal of
surprise on the part of those who were
not in the swim. 1t is now said that
the trustees are to make an immediate
sale, several offers having been re-
ceived for the paper. Mayor Baskin
may have word to say on the matter,
however, and it is very probable that
his veto of the resolution authorizing
the sale will be filed today AT first it
was not thought his honor had any
power to stop the sale, but a hurried in
vestigation revealed the fact that any
resolution which contemplates the pres
ent or future expenditures of money
must receive the approval of the
mayor, and inasmuch as from the date
of the sale of the bonds the city would
be forced to pay interest at the rate of
s125 per month it is claimed this feature
brings the measure within the province
OF the mayor anu ne VIII SHy MS castor
into the ring. The resolution will be
sent to his honor this morning and &C
ton may be taken upon it at once.
Speaking of the action of the council
in authorizing the sale of the bonds,
Mayor Baskin stated last night that he
favored the immediate sale of the
paper, the proceeds not to be held for
the copper plant people, however, but
devoted to the erection of a city jail
Within the next twenty days the bonds,
if not sold, will be worthless, for within
that time the total assessed valuation
will be definitely fixed and the city will
be considerably over her limit of in
debtedness. The mayor has always
held that the giving of the bonds to the
copper plant, even though indirectly,
would be Illegal and he vetoed the reso-
luton providing for the setting aside of
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1894-07-11

the bonds. In doing so he scored the
former council numerically.
1t is now stated that had the council
passed the resolution providing for the
transfer of the bonds in exchange for
the Kinball block an injunction would
have been served before the necessary
turns could have been made. Some
legal questions may be sprung in any
event within the next day or two.
While favoring the sale of the bonds
the mayor does not believe it is the
thing to allow the trustees to make the
sale, and hold the money.

preparation of $4,000 on account Of the
$4,000 damages allowed them by the
city, and asked the city engineer to
state if he thought the request was a
reasonable one.
The engineer said the contractors
were not progressing with the work as
fast as they should do, and he thought
they had already had plenty of money
appropriated for the amount Of work
they had done.
Cohn opposed paying any more money
on account of the bonus at present.
Clawson also opposed it and said only
$4,000 worth of work had been done on
the sewer under the new contract up to
July 1.
Young, on the statement of the en-

FOREIGN FEARS.
Democratic Government is Now on
Trial Says the Globe.

London, July 1O-The Globe this
afternoon SAYS: Democratic govern
ment as it exists in the United States
is now on trial. 1t has already been
proved wanting. In our eyes the strik-
ers are neither more nor less than
armed rebels who have plenty of SYM
pathy from the people, and among the
soldiery from the Atlantic TO the Pa
cific.''
st. James Gazette thinks that the
present situation indicates the actual
breaking down of the civilized govern
ment in some districts and possible col
lapse in others.

Disastrous to the future.

Berlin, July 1O.-The entire German
press regards the railroad war as disas-
trous to the future of the United States
The newspapers say the action of city,
state and federal authorities shows a
bewildering lack of unity. The
National Zeitung compares the anarchy
in the United States to the communism
of Paris. The Vossische Zeitung says
even if the revolution is to be subdued
fearful series of social battles will be
fought upon American soil.

sewer Work Progressing Rapidly.

Out on the sewer the work is pro-
crossing very satisfactorily and the
completion of the northern section of
the system is but the matter of two or
three weeks more. The loosening up of
railroad traffic is the signal for con-
gratulations among the contractors, as
they will soon be able to secure some
of their delayed cement.
