BoREAS AT WORK.
Wind Storm Played Havoc in Vari-
Gus Portions of the City.

Gus Portions of the City.
The Storm last night played havoc in
several parts of the city, signs being
blown down and things wrecked in a
general manner About il o'clock at
night the two story 'front.' on the one
story building formely occupied by the
Peoples Forwarding company, fell over
and a mass of wires and other bric-a-
brac mingled on the sidewalk No one
was injured, however, although a pas
ser-by had a narrow escape.
Tin announcements galore were torn
from their fastenings and trees of a
weakly nature were blown from their
mornings in several parts of the city.
The Inland Salt works at Saltair suf-
fered the most damage of any of the
reported accidents. Some time about 10
o'clock the wind, which was blowing at
the rate of about 100 miles per hour.
carried away all the upper parts of the
structures and played all the havoc
which one can imagine. There was a
report pending that the roof of the
pavilion at Saltair mad been blown off,
but this could not be verified. Tele-
phone messages were sent to the place.
with no response. None of the officials
of the company had received any word
at an early hour this morning, and it
is safe to presume that there is no
foundation for the reports
Information from Garfield say that all
the loose articles of furniture laying
around loose on the pavilion was car
ried away and that two boats which
were tied up are now cut adrift from
their mornings and are somewhere on
the bosom of the late. AS far as can
be ascertained there were no serious
accidents.

Corporations and Individuals Must
Account For Earnings.

After many delays the Internal reve-

regarding the enforcement of the pro-
visions of the income tax, which be-
came of full force and effect on the first
day of the year. Collector Lyman, OF
the district of Montana, Utah and
Idaho, whose headquarters are in
Helena, has received these instructions
and by the first of the week Deputy
Cabell, of Utah, should also be instruc-
ted how to proceed. Mr.. CabelI has
not been idle since the passage of the
income tax act and his fences are now
in pretty good shape. 1t is highly prob
able that the Utah branch of the de-
parment will be given one or more ad-
ditional collectors.

forcement of the act are sent out by

CAUSED MUCH CONSIDERATION.
Purchasers of County Warrants SUR
prised at the Courts Action.

CONSERVATION has been caused IN the
ranks of the purchasers of Salt Lake
county warrants for investment pur-
poses by the action of the county court,
which is looked upon as an indication
that an attempt will be made to repudi-
ate the paper already issued. From
par, the warrants now outstanding
above No. 17,024, said to be the limit of
the county legal Indebtedness, have
dropped to absolutely nothing, except
where there are daring spirits who are
not afraid to make a gamble that the
paper will be paid. These latter argue
that the county of Salt Lake can not
afford to repudiate a debt of that char
acter and in this they are borne out by
the great majority Of the business men
Of the city and county. While these
same business men view with feeling
akin to the CONSERVATION felt by the
purchasers the great debt which has
been piled up, they hold to the opinion
that moral law will not permit a repu-
diation of the warrants even should it
be proven that they are without the
pale of the law. The county has re-
ceived services or other commodities,
for work is a commodity, for the pro-
misses to pay and there should be no
throwing out Of the paper.
Treasurer Lynn is acting In accord
with the instructions OF the court and
has made no further calls for the pres
entation of warrants, although the
| treasury contains neat sum. He has
consulted with legal counsel, however,
and it is hardly likely that he will re-
| fuse to register warrants when they are
presented to him, for there are many
still outstanding that are not registered.
The registration does not validate the
paper, being simply a mark for further
| Identification when the calls for presen-
! tation are made. The treasurer will
probably make some change IN his
registration stamp, however, so as to
give notice that in the booking of the
| warrants he does not assume any re-
sponsibility. With the adoption of the
recommendations of the county attor-
ney the court voted to knock out some
sos, 900 in warrants claimed to have
been issued over the limit fixed by the
territorial statutes, but it is more than
| likely that the holders of some of thai
paper will test the matter in the courts
should there be no changes made in the
present. stand of the county court.
In view of the financial straits ir
which the county now finds itself, the
ladvisability Of issuing bonds has agair
! been sprung and it is more than likely
| that within the next few weeks the
people of this county will again have
| the privilege of voting for or againsr
bonds. They have already twice
| knocked out the proposition, but theil
will was defeated by the recent county
court, through the issuance of interes
bearing warrants.

Some two or three months ago The
Herald predicted that the records of the
territorial treasurer would show a de-
fciency OF not less than 100000 by the
first day of March, at which time it is
more than likely that final settlements
viii have been made on the taxes of
1894 by all of the county collectors OF
the territory This prediction will be
very Iiberasly fulfilled, there being now
on the register of the treasurer war
rants whose face values aggregate con-

and which will not be paid until the
end Of the present year or the first OF
the next The deficiency for the two
years which will elapse before the legls-

Treasurer Whitehead yesterday gave
it out that the chances are very much
against his making any more calls for
the presentation of registered warrants
until the revenue for the present yeal
begins to come in next fail, for the very
simple reason that already he has pro-
vided for all of the 1894 revenue and
still there are unpaid warrants whose

ANCHOR AND SILVER KING.
Both Properties Are Now in First
Class Condition.


David Keith, of the Anchor and Sill
yer King, was in the city yesterday
on his way to San Francisco, where
he will be accompanied by Mrs. Keith.
The gentleman will remain on the
coast for ten days or two weeks.
AS yet no contracts for the output
of the Anchor during the year 1895
have been made and the company is
simply laying on its oars awaiting de-
Velopments. The regular shipments
are being made and concentrator and
mine are being worked to their full
capacity. The mine is reported to be
in splendid shape.
AT the Silver King all of the i'm
provements which have been in course
of construction for some time past are
now practically completed and the
property is at last in condition to make
some heavy shipments Of ore. When
asked whether or not the company
would declare a dividend this month
Mr.. Keith stated that he Thought not,
but one would probably be forthcoming
in the near future.

RETURNED FROM suxNYs1DE.
Banker Whftmore, of Nephi, Says it
May Be Il Great District.

May lie Il OFe1J district.
One Of the southern visitors to the
city yesterday was George c. Whit
more, of Nephi. The gentleman has
just returned from the Sunnyside gold
district, exhaustive accounts of which
have been published in The Herald.
AS a matter Of fact, the properties
which have been opened are right in
the heart Of Mr.. Whitmore's cattle
ranges. and he was. therefore, in a
good position to judge of the richness
of the district. But comparatively lit
tie work has beer done on any of the
claims, yet that little is sufficient to
demonstrate that the district has i'm
pense bodies Of low grade gold ores,
fwith occasional deposits Of high grade
brock. It is now no place for prospec-
Rors in search Of locations, for the
Snow on the ground covers almost
every landmark
Mir. whitmore is Of the opinion that
the spring will witness a, heavy influx
of people into the new district and
they should make some healthy show
ings before the new year is many
months old. The present owners of
the claims are greatly enthused over
