VALLEY ROAD
PRES. BRUBECK AND SEC. SCAN
NELL OFF FOR LONDON.
Track Laying on the Mercur Road
VIII Commence This Week-Spe-
cfaI Conference and Fair Rates.

President Brubeck and Secretary
Seannerl. Of the Sanpete Valley rail-
road left for London last night for the
purpose of meeting with the foreign
stockholders of the company and at
tending to some special business in con-
nection with the proposed further ex-
tensions of the road. While Mr.. Bru
beck was very reticent regarding the
objects of his visit to Europe at this
particular time and contented himself
with the statement that it was neces-
sary for himself and Mr.. Scannell to
hold rersonal interviews with the Eu-
ropean stockholders of the company,
lit is said that there is more behind the
unexpected trip than the gentlemen are
willing to tell, and runlor is already
afloat to the effect that the company
has in immediate contemplation the
extension of the little road north so
las to give it immediate connection with
this city. The object of the visit Is
thought to be the securing of the nee
essary financial aid to carry out the
project.
The grade for the eight mile extern
sion to the coal fields south to Manti
was completed last night and the ties
are being distributed along the road
bed. Within the next week or two the
rails for the extension will be delivered
upon the ground and track laying will
commence Immediately following.

Increasing Sewer Forces.

In accordance with the notice re-
ceived from the board of public works,
the contractors on the gravity sewer
have doubled up their excavating
forces and promise that just as soon as
the latter get reasonable distance
ahead, the same course will be fol-
lowed with the concrete and plastering
gangs. While no sections of the work
have been completed during the past
week, very good progress is being made,
and the indications are that the system
will be completed to North Temple
street without a break in the advance
ment, and then considerable of the anx-
iety now in the minds of the city Off
Gals who have the work in direct
charge will be relieved 1t is the in
tention of the officials to turn City
creek into the main when it shall have
reached North Temple street and make
a practical test of the system before
any more of the work is constructed
OF course, there can be no doubt as to
the result of the tests, but the flow of
the water through the mains will as
sist greatly in preparing it for the
great work which will be required of it,

TOO LATE TO TURN BACK.
Cook Prefers the Life of a Cut-throat
md bandit.

Fort Smith, Ark, Sept 15.-United
States Deputy Marshal w. c. Smith
has just returned from trip that few
men can make and can get back alive.
He has Just come back from the rem
devious Of the Bill Cook-Dalton gang,
which was organized by the union OF
the Bill Cook gang and the remnants of
Bill Dalton's old band. Smith went
there alone, trying to induce Bill Cook
who formerly worked as a member of
Smiths posse, to abandon his life Of
outlawry. Cook assured him, however,
that he proposed to go ahead in his ca
reer, for 1t was now too late to turn
back. There were thirteen men in the
gang, ana they are now as strong as
Bill Dalton's old band ever was. Deputy
Marshal Smith, who has the reputation
of being one of the bravest men in the
service Of the United States marshals
here, found the Whereabouts of the
gang in a very peculiar manner He
learned that one of the band had a
sweetheart at Sspullea, l. T., and ten
days ago Smith went there to see her.
After considerable persuasion he con-
WINGED her that he was alone and pre-
vailed upon her to pilot him to the
camp of the bandits. One week ago,
Wednesday, they left Sapullea and
travelled around several days rather
aimlessly and Sunday morning reached
tie camp. This is the first authentic
news of the movements Of the band
since the Red Fork, 1. II, express rob-

Rapidly the surplus of the city treas

taps, and the 100000 mark has been
passed some time since. Inroads have
already been made into the sum which
was some time ago distributed among
the treasurer banks at IL per cent
interest and if the present rate of ex-
penditures is continued the sum in the
hands of Mr.. Duke, by the time the
taxes begin to roll in with any volume,
will be extremely small. The receipts
for the first eight months of the year
reached the aggregate sum of $1,00S,
612.07 and the disbursements for the
same period were s6S9,S31.69. When
the doors of the treasurer's depart
ment of the municipal service closed
last night that official had in his keep
ing $293, 67121, of which the sum of
$50. 1854 represents the special taxes
thus far collected. The weekly state
ment of the treasurer shows that on
Saturday last the treasury contained

Mayor Baskin's Gold Fish.

Mayor Baskin is taking the greatest
pride possible in the grounds of the
joint building and the fountains are
special features of his attention. In
those fountain basins, which will soon
be filled with water from the jets of
the main parts of the handsome orna-
ments, he will plant water plants and
place gold fish, but although he has
already received one consignment of
the beautiful fish it will be necessary
to obtain another, the fish having been
stolen by interruptions boys. At the
Liberty park there is a small spring
into which the mayor turned the little
golden beauties, awaiting the compile
ton of the fountains. The boys soon
discovered the presence of the fish and
it did not require long for them TO
scoop the goldies in. The spring is now
barren of fish.
