W. Fl. Gibbs, OF Portage precinct, both
in Box Elder county, have presented
petitions for wqits of mandate against
the Utah commission to compel the
commission to issue TO the petitioners
certificates Of their election as MEM

turns. The writ was issued returnabie
on Dec. q. Tie petitions are based on

WHERE IS BOB SMITH?
He Made Love to the Lady and
SKIPPED with Her Cash.

Butte, Mont, Dec. 15.-[Special]-
The city authorities today sent re-
quest to Salt Lake for the arrest of
Bob Smith, on the charge of grand
larceny. Smith was a bartender in
Butte until few days ago and then
skipped out with about 5000 belonging
to Nine. Shields, the -proprietress of a
hair goods establishment, from whom he
had borrowed it under promise of mar
riage. Smith has a wife in Salt Lake
and he went to join her. Some months
ago he met Nine. Shields and showed
her letter from his wife, in which the
latter told him that she had left him
for good and taken up with another
man. An attachment sprung up be-
tween Mime. Shields and Smith, and
they made preparations to get married
as soon as he should get divorce
which was to have been within a few
weeks. During this stage of affairs
Mrs. Smith came from Salt Lake and
remained in Butte for a short time
Mime. Shields says Smith put detec-
tives on his wife's tracks for the pur-
pose of securing evidence for a divorce.
The result was that Smith forced
himself into his wife's room while
Butte banker was there. This was de-
nounced as matchmaking scheme.
Since Smith got away with Mme.
Shields 5000, she has learned, so she
says that Smith and his wife are a
pair, and that they worked
together in getting her money and in

The hearing on motion to set aside
1.-THE decree of divorce in the suit of
Fred King VS.. JENNIE NJ King, was

default, by Chief Justice Zane. Suisse
quently the lady caused the case to be
Teopened and then put in an answer

Later there was some talk of a set
Element, by which the decree might
stand. Attorney Ogden Hiles, Mrs.
Kings attorney at that time, was
eventually given to understand that
the matter had been so arranged and
thereupon agreed by stipulation that
the decree should stand. 1t was re-
affirmed by Judge Bartch. But after
wards Mrs. King Tepudiated the whole
proceeding, saying she knew nothing

PRATT STILL II THE PEN.
The Grand Jury VIII. However,
Make Their Final Report TomOrr-
row.

Contrary to expectations. the final
report of the grand jury for the Sep
TENDER term was not presented in
court yesterday.
Shortly before noon the members of
that body presented themselves before
the bar of Judge Bartch's division of
the court and handed in five indict-
ments under the territorial statutes.
The final report was ready for pre-
sentation, but Judge Bartch, after
few minutes consultation with United
States District Attorney Judd, came TO
the conclusion that there were still
some cases for the inquisitors to in
quire into, and asked them to defer the
presentation Of their final report until
Monday morning. His honor said he
had consulted with the chief justice.
and it had been decided that as the
December term did rot open until Mon
day morning at II o'clock, the present
term need not close until that time.
His honor suggested that in the
meantime the grand Jurors examine as
far as possible into other offenses
which might come before them, as it
would be some time before another
grand jury would come together.
The grand jurors looking rather dis
appointed, returned to their room.
This turn of affairs was in the nature
of a disappointment to Chief of Police
Pratt and Officers Sheets and Fergu-
son. who are still incarcerated- in the
penitentiary for contempt and who
fully expected that with the adjourn
ment of the grand jury they would be
restored to liberty.
The friends of the imprisoned Of
fcers were also &. good deal disappoint-
ed and during the afternoon Messrs.
Salisbury and Jennings, of the police
and fire commission. accompanied by
City Attorney Hoge, came down 70 the
palace of justice to see if anything
could be done to get the prisoners lib
Grated; but after consulting some law
books they decided 10 let things re-
main statu quo until Monday, when it
is fully expected the chief and his two
will be discharged.

CHARLES CARTER.
Judge Powers Argued Motion for
n New Trial.

Judge Powers presented and argued
a motion for new trial in the case
of Charles Carter, found guilty of
grand larceny of $1,000 worth of gold
bullion from the Cane Springs Consoli-
dated Mining company. His honor took
the matter under adyisement, and in
the meantime judgment was stayed.
The motion was based upon error on
THE part of the court in its decision on
matters of law arising during the trial,
misdirection of the jury, and error as
charging the jury as follows: THE
court further charges you that if you
find that the defendant felonious1y
took the bullion in Tooele county. in
this territory, and then with feIonious
intent to convert it to his own use and
deprive the owner, whoever he might
be, OF his property, carried it into Salt

is guilty of grand larceny if you fur
ther find the value of the property so
taken and carried away exceeds tine
sum of $50'

Chinaman, Gets OF Easily.
William Leatham, found guilty of
rolJbing Chinaman of 1886, came UP
for sentence and was ordered to pay
a fine of $40 and the costs of the case,
which amount to about $40 He was
given thirty days in which TO pay, fail
ing which he is to be arrested and
committed.
Prior to the passing of sentence Nor
ris Sommer his attorney, said few
words in mitigation of punishment, re
minding the court that Leatham was
convicted upon the unsupported testi-
mony of a. Chinaman. He had gone
on a spree and that was the cause of
his falling into his present trouble
Counsel further stated that the de
PENDANT had a JOB of work to which ne
could now go, and asked that a fine
be imposed instead of Imprisonment.
Prosecuting Attorney EIowat said he
believed the defendant committed the
offense more out of spirit of bravado
than as a thief by instinct. He was
inclined to think, however, that Lea
than had been spending some of his
money in riotous living instead OF be-
slowing it all upon his parents. II,
however. the court thought fine
would serve in this case, he himself
would not offer any objection ON the
part of the prosecution.
Judge Bartch expressed surprise at
seeing a young man OF the defendant
parentage and apparent responsibility
in such a position and gave him some
good counsel. Having obtained from
him the promise that he would con-
duct himself well in the future. the
court imposed the penalty as stated
above
