Cooper Union tonight to protest against
the Sunday closing law. Mayor Strong,
who was expected, was not present.

All of the members Of the local board
of fire underwriters were yesterday feel
ing in good spirits over what they con-
slider a Well-earned victory gained over
the outsiders, This victory had to do
with the insurance of the Joint city and
county building, Of which there is 100000
now being carried at Is cents The agents
whose companies hold policies on the
structure were given TO understand oy
the special committee having the matter
in hand that there was no disposition on
the part Of the members Of the commit
tee to order any of the policies cancelled,
even though the non-n1embers OF the
union did make an offer 10 write the en-
tire line at 3515 cents, which really meant
a reduction of 621a per cent. from the reg
ular tariff rates, for the companies mad
originally cut the schedule 70 per cent. on
account of the splendid character of the
risk. There were but Two ef the outside
companies which desired to take the bus
mess at the great cut named, however,
and the action Of the city council the
other night prohibited the writing Of the
insurance in that small number, regard
less of the Staunch character of the COM
panies,
From the first the members OF the
county court refused to entertain any or
the several offers Of cut rates made by
the non-uniOn companies. for the reason
that they considered that the county was
under obligations to the insurance COM
panies, which had carried the unpaid pre-
rniums due from the county on their
books when there was no money in the
treasury with which TO cancel the debts
and in addition had made a voluntary re
duction of 20 per cent. from the original
tariff rates.
The decision of the California courts on
the question of the enforcement OF the
non-intercourse clause within their Jurts,,
diction is being awaited with no small
degree of interest by the. local agents,
pated that the effect will be very wide
spread. The board of fire underwriters OF
the Pacific is said to care little which way
the case gees, just 30 the matter is set
tied. but Immediately following the hand
ing down of the decision some very Inn
portant changes will more than likely be
ordered by the board. One of these
changes will probably be the suspension
of tariff rates and the ordering OF gen
eral warfare all over the coast, although
it is not at all likely that the Salt Lake
agents will engage In the fray. They are
now too securely entrenched behind their
breastW orhs to come out for a hand-to-
hand conflict But be that as it may.
they are anxlously awaiting word from
the coast.

Reached an Agreement
At a recent meeting OF the board Of di-
rectors OF the Groesbeck company. the
decision was arrived at that the proposed
loan on the Wasatch and other property
of the company should be cut down some
1000 and placed at $4,000. The matter

practically closed at one time, but on &C
| count of a disagreement regarding the
wording of the deed of trust the PROPOSE
! ton which at that time was the most ac-
ceptable was thrown overheard and new
negotiations entered into. The money is
! to be provided at rate Of interest not
| greater than per cent. There is warm
contest en- among the various loaning
agencies of the city, for 1t is very de-
| sirable loan.

Gas and Electric Light company, which
has just been thoroughly tested for the
purpose of ascertaining whether or not
the mains and fittings were OF sufficient
strength to hold the natural gas without
any leaks occurring. This district in
cludes all of that part of the city lying
north of South Temple street and west
of State street, and into it will first be
poured the natural lighting and fuel
agent which has just been delivered on
Main street. In making the inspection
the experts paid particular attention to
fittings in those residences which are now
connected up for artificial gas and there
was hardly a house in which leaks were
not found Such condition would never
do with the natural gas turned on for,
While there is slight OdOr to the Lake
Shore product, it Is not Of sufficient
strength to make detection immediate.
For this reason it was necessary to have
everything in perfect shape before the
gas is thrown into the district.
1t is ANTICIPATED that the burners spe-
cially ordered for the tests about to be
made and the first consumers of the gas
will be delivered within the next day or
two, In which event the turning over of
the natural gas system can take place at
once
