WOMEN BLOCKED THE HALL
A Lively Time in the Utah Convention
With the Ladies
Delegates Crowded Ont of Their Seats by
Enthusiastic Females Suffrage
Question Still Hangs Fire

SALT LAKE, April 2.-The excitement
over the womans suffrage has been on
the increase for week. An hour before
the time of calling the constitutional con-
vention to order this morning the spa
cious corridors around the hall were filed
with a surging mass of humanity. Tardy
delegates found the entrances to the hall
so blocked as to make entrance impossi-
BILE. When the doors were opened the
ladies forced their way in and in their
enthusiasm took possession of the dele
gates seats. Police officers had to be called
in to take charge of the excited crowd.
At the thine of calling the convention
to order, qurum of members had not
gained admission and Presi dent Smith
had to request the ladies to vacate until
delegates were seated.
Bishop Whitney made short speech in
explanation of his remarks last week and
then Roberts, who was to make the clos
ing speech, was recognized and made a
mastery speech against the pending
measure. He was particularly sarcastic
in reference to the remarks OF Whitney,
who spoke in favor of equal suffrage. At
the close of his speech he was the recip-
lent of the most enthusiastic demonstra-
tions of applause.
The first vote was on the substitute pro-
viding for separate submission of the suf
frage clause. Only % delegates cast their
votes in favor of the substitute. Every
substitute and amendment was voted
down and the majority report was finally
ordered to a third reading.

WHITEWASHING THE TOXINE
Result of an Investigation Into the Death of
Bertha Valentine


NEW YORK April Nv. II. Park, NJ. d.
assistant director of the hospital bacter-
Illogical laboratory of the board of health
of this city, has given out the following
statement In regard to the death of Bertha
Valentine of Brooklyn, which was sup
posed at first to have been caused by an
injection of anti -toxne:
I'm view of the sudden death which
reently occurred in Brooklyn, the admin
istration of Behring's diphtheria anti-tox-
inc, obtained from Messrs. Schuzbe and
Koechel, the American agents for the
remedy two vias of the anti -tox inc from
the same lot as that which was used by
Dr. Cortright in the case alluded to. /
have submitted both vials to thorough
tests by injecting excessive doses in
guinea pigs and rabbits without produc-
ing in the animals any deleterious effects
whatever. Specimens from both vals
were also submitted to pacterioog ical
tests and were found to be absolutely free
from living germs of any kind.
"These results taken together with the
fact that the New York board of health
has employed the same kind of anti-tox-
inc in considerable number of cases
with the best results, leads me to believe
that the disastrous results in the case re-
ferIed to cannot be attributed in any
way to the anti-toxine which was en-
ployed.' -

A BIG SUIT
Litigation Growing Out of the Collapse OF the
Pacific Railroad Company

CHICAGO, April 2.-After taking testi-
mony for two years from Boston to San
Francisco, attorneys in the heavy litlga-
ton growing out of the collapse OF the
Pacific Railroad Company have begun
their arguments. They will talk week
before George Bass, master in chancery.
The suit involves about 81, 600, 900, half o
dozen banks of this city and number OF
capitalists who stood behind C.B. Holmes
in his cable road venture in Los Angeles,
being parties in interest. Mr.. Holmes
was formerly superintendent of the Chi
cago City Railway. number of inter
esting legal points are involved in the
suit. The Chicago capitalists bought the
stock of the Los Angeles cable road. After
wards the Pacific Railway Company
was organized, all the stock and property
of the cable company being transferred
to it. The creditors claim that there was
no power in these companies to make
such transaction. and therefore, although
the Pacific railroad stock was issued in
payment for the property the title Of the
property never passed to the Pacific Rail
way Company; if so. the stock was not
paid for. The creditors are suing for the
value of that stock.

some of the new naval vessels provided
for at the last session of congress, for his
state. The,law provides that one of the
two battle ships and one of the torpedo
boats shall be built in the Pacific in case
it should not appear they cannot be built
there except at exorbitant rates, but
makes no such specification as to any of
the composite ramboats provided for in
the act. Squire has however, been as
sured that the people of the Western
coast shall have an opportunity TO put in
bids on these boats also. There is only
one institution on that coast having fa-
clities for building battle ships and that
is located at San Francisco, but the SEN

be constructed on Puget Sound as eco

necessary to reduce the dimensions in or

DARWIN'S MISSING LINK.
Dutch Doctor Thinks He Has Found

Dutch Doctor Thinks He Has Found
the Creature In Java.
DR.. Dubois has made all interesting
discovery in the island of Java. He
claims to have uncarthcd the bones of
Darwin's missing link, says the Pail
Mall Gazette. Pithccanthropus ercctus
is the unassuming name with which
the doctor has seen cit to baptize this
tertiary ancestor of ours. Up to the
present the skull, thigh-bonc and
one solitary tooth are all that have
been laid bare, but, according TO DIR.
Dubois, these remains arc sufficient to
prove that the Pithccanthropus ercctus
was-as its name irrplics-in the habit
of walking erect like Il man; that it
was about the same height as an ordi-
nary man; finally, that, owing to the
formation of the jaw, it (or, perhaps,
''he" would be more correct) could ar
ticulatc without difficulty. The doctor
concludes, therefore, that he has finally
solved Il much-dcbatcd question, and
added fresh lustcr to the reputation of
the greatest naturalist the world ha;
ever seen - himself excepted. After
this the exploits of Prof. Garner in
Africa sink into insignilicance. We
suggest that he proceed Immediately to
Java ard there join his Dutch colleague,
for, after disappointing us so cruelty
over those gorillas, the least the profess
sor can do, in our opinion, is to en-
Tighten us on the Pithecanthropus
crcctus. Meanwhile, we suppose it
would be unllind to hint that the Dutch
scientist may possibly have stumbled
upon the remains of what was at one
time fine specimen of n male orang.
