ADJUSTMENTS.

HAMLET.-Louis James Salt Lake
engagement closed very handsomely
last night with a performance of the
ever beautiful, classic and ma iestfc
Hamlet" The audience was again
large, and although Mr.. James ought
TO feel extremely proud of the reception
he has been accorded in this city. his
Hamlet, While not the best thing in his
repertoire, is well thought out, scholar
~ and beautifully read it gives some
what the impression of neWness, and
conveys the idea that there is growth
IN 1t When the actor shall have rem
dered 1T continuously for one or two
seasons more. Mr.. James is undoubt-
edly heavy for the role, and lacks
hnesSe, that indeScrbaple so!lething
that is the mark of genius. OF course
ne Iabors under the disadvantage of
playing against the memory of Edwin
Booth, a memory that will remain
green with Salt Lake theatre goers as
long as our generation lasts; next to
MIR. Booth, probably the Hamlet of
Edwin Adams is the best remembered
delineation, and probably next tc his,
Is that OF Thomas Keene who has not
recently done the part in Salt Lake.
Nothing but long, hard study, contin-
uoUS dpp4c0tlOn ana repeated Per
formances will put Mr. James Hamlet
on the same plane with either of those
mentioned, but 1T was sufficiently good
and promising last night to Indicate
that if he persists with determination
and patience, his Hamlet may yet be
brought up to the rank of the best
things in his store of characters. The
support was good throughout, the
Ophelia of Miss Kruger, the King of
Mr.. Harris, the Laertes of Mr.. Linds-
lay and the polonIus beng e=rec-
ghosts, even in our old stock compa-
MES.
TOM KEENE.-Mr. Thomas Keene,
the tragedian, will come to Salt Lake
theatre next Monday and Tuesday
evenings, to round out the closing year
with a series of performances of clas-
sic and Shakespearean drama. Mr.
Keene has been before the American
public for a humber of yelrs in these
characters, and has obtained wide &C
ceptance as the foremost tragedian in
a wide range of parts, notably Louis
XII and Richard I'LL" which he has
done here.
ROMEO AND JULIET-The Orpheus
club is busy rehearsing Romeo and
Juliet for its early production at the
theatre. Mr. Haskell, who has just ar
rived, is delighted with the progress
so far made and will introduce the
boys at once into the mysteries of the
stage business. The principals are loud
in their praises Of the costumes, Which
are magnificent and give a guarantee
of high class and elaborate produc-
ton.

PANIC AT A FIRE.
AS A RESULT THIEVES GROW SUD.
DENLY RICH.
Fire Believed to Have Been the
Work of Incendiaries, as Odor of
Kerosene Was Very Plain.

CHICAGO, Dec. 27.-Tenants of the
Pullman apartment building 23O to 252
Fifty-fifth street were driven from their
ing. From a copdition of profound mid
night peace the portion of Hyde Park ly-
ing in that neighborhood was thrown into
a commotion bordering on panic and the
confusion of the families making hasty
escape from the building resulted in some
minor accidents, much distress and a
street full OF furniture.
Charles Kaufman, owner of the uphol-
stering shop in which the fire worked
most damage was arrested by Captain
Aldrich of the Hyde park police station
on suspicion of arson. He carried 81, 600
insurance, which is held by the police cap
tain TO be excessive and traces of kero-
Sene Oil were discovered by the firemen.
The damage resulting from the fire does
not exceed 900. But the household be-
longlngs ranged promiScuously along the
street became the prey of thieves while
the excitement of rescue and escape ran
high. and the loss from this source Nni
be considerable.
In the panic following their sudden
awakening many of the tenants FASTENED
to transfer their more valuable belong
ings from the presumably burning build
ing to the street. Sneak thieves awaited
themselves OF the confusion and carried
off much property.
During the progress of the fire, Mrs.
Sarah Atkins, an invalid was carried
from, her home in state of hysteria and
removed to d hospital where it is feared
the excitement may result fatally
arms, was upon the point of jumping
from a second story window, when re-
strained by a policeman who led him in
safety to the street.

ment entered against other defendants

The Fyler Case.

Speaking of the Fyler case yesterday,
Judge Powers said: THE examination
before Commissioner Sommer will dis
close that the prosecution is malicious
and not founded upon facts Mrs Nc
kone's good name will be fully vindi-
Gated. The cruel statement that the
furniture in Mrs. McKone's room was
given her by Mr.. Fyler is untrue. She
purchased the same of the FLYERS as
can be proven by Mrs. F'yler. Mr.. Nc
Kone never worked for FyIer and the
latter was never at Mrs. McKone's
room at ''unseemly hours" The de-
tense will probe this prosecution to the
bottom and the charges will be explod-
ed. speak thus confidently because,
after a full and searching investiga-
ton of the case, L can say to the public
that there is not even probable cause
to believe the parties guilty. Mr. Fyler
Is willing to wait until the examina-
ton before talking for the public, as
he is confident that public sentiment
will change when the truth is known"

The election contest case of E. D. R.
Thompson against LIE Grand Young
for the office of one of the Judges OF
the Third judicial district came up
before Chief Justice Merritt yesterday
on demurrer to the complaint.
Attorneys John NJ. Zane and George
Sutherland appeared for the plaintiff
and Attorneys j. W. Judd and P. L.
Williams for the defendant.
1t appeared from the election re-
turns that the contestee was elected
TO the office of district judge by ma
jority of &c votes. The contestant, who
was also a candidate for that office.
alleges that owing to the placing of
ballots in the wrong ballot boxes at a
number of voting precincts throughout
the territory he lost about 100 votes
which should have been counted for
him and asks that the court order that
said votes be counted for him and
that he be declared duly elected to the
Office instead of Mr.. Young.
The defendants counsel put in de-
murrer to the amended complaint on
the ground that the court has no juliS-
diction of the person of the defendant
or of the subject of the action; that
the said amended complaint does not
state facts sufficient to constitute a
cause of action; that the amended COM
plant is ambiguous, unintelligible and
uncertain because that it does not
state what act or acts of the judges of
election constitute the malconduct al
legged in the amended complaint.
Judge Judd for the defense took the
position that the motion was prema
turely brought; that it was moot
case. That there was no such thing in
the jurisprudence of the territory as
district judge, and that the statutes
providing for contesting the right to
an office under territorial government
did not contemplate the Office of dis
trict judge That the constitution
adopted by the people was simply as
yet a proposed constitution; that it
had no validity and could have none
until the president issued his procla-
NATION admitting the state into the
union, as provided by the enabling act.
The contestant was not a district judge;
he was not entitled to the office of
district judge because there was, and
could not be no such thing as a dis
trict judge until Utah became a state
and the constitution was vitalized by
the proclamation of the president.
There were other grounds of defense
argued but the court did not pass upon
them at all but decided the case upon
the ground above stated, and sustained
the demurrer.
If MIR. Thompson wishes to pursue the
matter further he viii have to bring
his action in the state courts in the
manner prescribed by the constitution
in such cases.

COUNTY WARRANTS.
Suit to Enjoin County Treasurer
From Paying.

FROM 1lN1DS-
Stephen Hays has begun suit against
Salt Lake county and William P.
Lynn, treasurer. The plaintiff brings
the suit on behalf Of himself and all
other taxpayers of the county and also
creditors of the county similarly
situated who choose to join in the ac-
ton. The complaint sets up that in
January. 1894. the county, by it's
authorized officers. entered into a con-
tract with the Fen IN Metallic Manu-
featuring company by which the said
company was to furnish certain ma
terials and perform certain labor on
the joint city and county building for
a consideration of 143S9.40; that the
work was done and warrants issued
and the Fenton Metallic company en-
dorsed three of the warrants in the
amount Of $2410.12 to the plaintiff
The said three warrants We're pre-
sented for payment on December 90
1894, and the treasurer, for want of
funds, declined to pay the same.
1t is then alleged that after the
making of the contract with the Me-
tallic company the county, on May 15
1894, reached the full limit of its legal
Indebtedness for the year 1894. and
that Notwithstanding the county had
reached its limit it did, between May
is. 1894. and January 1, 1895, incur ad-
ditional obligations and issued war
rants therefor in the sum of $75, 600.
and that Treasurer Lynn will pay
such warrants as fast as funds come
IN, unless restrained from so doing
and that in consequence holders of al
legged legal warrants, of which the
plaintiff is one, will suffer irreparable
loss.
Plaintiff prays that all indebtedness
incurred and warrants issued by the
county during 1894 and after the time
the limit of legal Indebtedness was
reached be declared void; that de
PENDANTS be requested to furnish a list
of all obligations incurred and war
rants issued during that period, and
that all holders of such warrants be
ordered to become parties to this suit;
that the defendant, Lynn, be restrained
and perpetually enjoined from paying
any Of such warrants; that it be de-
creed that the warrants owned and
held by tie plaintiff are not invalid by
reason Of having been issued in pay
me1t of prior contract liability or by
reas son of any excess in the debt limit
being created between the time of the
making of said contract and the time
of the issuing Of warrants.
