OUR NEW SERVICE.
SALT LAKE IN TOUCH WITH THE
GREAT CITIES.
Opening of Leased Wire of the As
sOciated Press to the Coast
Marks an Important Era in
American journalism.

New York, March 15.-The Associ-
ated Press began forwarding the tele-
graphic news of the world tonight over
ocean to ocean and on both sides of the
continent from the most northern city
to the southern city.
This was made possible by the ex-
tension of the leased wire system
from Denver, Colorado, heretofore the
western terminus of the Associated
Press leased wire system, to Salt Lake,
Sacramento and San Francisco, and
geles and San Diego and north to
Portland, Tacoma and Seattle.
It marks an important era in Amer
lean journalism, illustrating the prog
resS- made in the Geographic news SER
vice. 1t places for the first time the
great cities of the country, without an
exception, in actual touch, through
their large newspapers
The first leased wire of the Asso-
ciated Press was established between
New York and Chicago in 1885. 1t was
regarded as a great innovation in
newspaper progress, as it exacted the
employment by the Associated Press
of its own expert operators and the
handling of the news direct into the
general offices OF the Associated Press.
The leased wire circuits were grad
ually increased until they extended
throughout the east and west as far as
Denver and Iatterly throughout the
south as far as Galveston and San An
tonic The final link in making the
service transcontinental was added to-
night when the Pacific coast became a
part of this great system, which now
embraces an actual mileage in excess
of $4,000 miles.
Tonight. therefore, when the night
circuit was opened in New York city,
every principal city in the United
States, east and west, north and south,
embracing all the cities of the Pacific
coast, We're connected and are receiv-
ing the Associated Press practically
simultaneously.

The Queen City Receives Another
Black Optic.

Denver Col, March 1.-THE Nation
al Guard of Colorado is under arms,
the federal troops from Fort Logan,
have been called out, and although
martial law has not been officially pro
claimed, there is no other recognized
authority in Denver tonight but the
strong. arm of the military.
The critical situation has been
brought about by the determination of
Governor Waite to GUST the two mem
bers of the fire and police board,
Jackson Orr and D. J. Martin, whom
he removed for protecting gambling
houses, and place in. office their sue
cessors, S. D. Barnes and Dennis Null

Told to Use Their Gums.
Messrs. Orr and Martin having OBJ
tanned from the district court an ia-
junction restraining Governor Waite
from forcibly removing them, We're de-
termined to resist to the uttermost.
They accordingly kept the entire police
force at he city hall all day under
orders to resist the soldiers l. attacked.
In addition, several hundreds of the
toughest citizens, many of whom have
records as man-killers, were sworn in
as deputies by Sheriff BurchiaeIl and
placed in the city hall as 4 reinforce
ment of the police department. Each
deputy was armed with two six shoot
ers and instructed to use them in case
| of necessity. The police were armed
with shot guns in addition to their
clubs and revolverS.
The first regiment and the Chaffe
Light Artillery arrived at he city hall
at o'clock, and General Brooks, COM
lmander, delivered to Lieutenant
| Clay, in command outside the hall q
message to the effect that if the re-
moved police commissioners did not
vacate within half an hour the Office
would be taken by force

Thousands of people lined the streets,
through which, shortly after 2 o'clock.
the troops marched to the city hall,
and many loudly expressed approval
or diSapproval of the governors action.
Many engaged in hot argument,
and so bitter was the feeling on the
part of both Of these who opposed and
those who defended the governor, that
| it seemed as if a general riot would
ensue should a shot be fired.
Massed in the vicinity of the city
hall were thousands, most Of them
drawn to the spot out of mere curios-
ity and reckless of the danger that
seemed imminent.
Part of the policemen, armed with
reYolverS and clubs, were drawn up in
| line outside the hall, awaiting the ap-
proach of the enemy. Inside were the
remainder and large force of deputy
sheriffs armed with rifles, revolvers.

Members of the chamber of com

but he alternately made threats anC

scared soldiers stood patiently in the

Enloe, of Tennessee, offered an
amendment to strike out all parts for
the maintenance of this burden.
The secretary Of state announced to
the House the passage of the seignior-

ceived with many manifestations of
approval on the Democratic side.
After considerable debate, Enloe's
amendment was ruled out of order.
Enloe appealed from the decision and
the House refused to sustain the APP
peal. Enloe then changed his tactics
by moving to strike out the items of
appropriations for the coast and geo
detic surveys and supported this pro-
position in a long speech. Without ac-
ton ON the amendment the House, at

man remains. They We're those of the
man who threw the bomb. Intestines,
brains and blood were scattered
over large area. On the
body a number of anarchist papers
and portrait of Ravachol, the execut-
ed anarchist, were found. Fortunately
there were few people in the church
at the time. The church was very
