Traffic Manager Monroe, of the
Union Pacific, Is Here.
CONFERS WITH MIR. BABC0CK
NO REASON FOR RESTORING THE
OLD RATES.
The Principle on Which the Reduce
ton Was Made is Just-Many Ex-
cursiOns BOOked-The Latest Rail-
way News By Wire-LocaI Notes.

J. A Monroe, the Union Pacific traf-
fic manager, is in town, but so far as
can be learned no special significance
is attached to his visit. In fact, he
stated to a Herald reporter that he
was here for rest more than anything
else, although attending to some bust
ness.
The gentleman was at the Union Pa
cific headquarters yesterday, and i'll
the afternoon had a somewhat lengthy
conference with Traffic Manager Bah
cock, of the Western, presumably on
freight matters.
I, To Herald reporter Mr.. Monroe ex-
pressed himself as gratified at the sat
isfaction shown by the Utah shippers
over the recent reduction in freight
rates from Chicago, and when asked
if there was any probability Of the
rates being raised, he replied: Not
that we can sec The principle o.,
which that reduction was made is
just and know of no reason why it
should not be permanent"
The talk of a rate war seems to
have died out?"
'Well. no advantage could accrue to
either the roads or. the shippers from
that. We neither want nor expect a
war"
Mr.. Monroe will remain in the city
three or four days, and has not de-
cided as to where he will go from
here.

Tomorrow the board of equalization
will begin the business for which it
is called and will continue for ten
days to hear complaints The city
member of the board is Hon. C. P.
Mason, of the city council, who will
sit with the county court to give adj
vice as to the action of the board in
relation to action taken on city hold
ings.
In connection with this meeting,
the county collector makes the state
ment that all tax notices have been
mailed. He fears, however. that
there may be cases where the owners
have not received them, owing to the
fact that many of the addresses may
be faulty. He suggests the calling at
the general delivery window by those
who think they are short
The first notices have all been sent
out and the force of clerks in the
office are now engaged in working on
the second. Mr.. Spencer announces
that he will have them all out in time
to bunch notices which go to the same
parties, and will thus save a great
deal of money, as he has in the first
instance. He has saved $4,000 envel-
opes already on the first notices.
which is quite an item of itself
Hitherto the plan has been to send
each man a separate notice for each
piece of property which he owned.
These notices were enclosed in separ-
ate envelopes and as a result the ex-
pense was considerable. But under
the plan adopted by the present col
lector all notices to the same party
are enclosed in one and a single
stamp is made to do all the work.
The force of clerks in the office of
the county assessor are working hard
on the carrying out of the figures on
the tax roll, which will be turned over
to the county clerk as soon as it is
completed At the time it is present.
ed, the valuation will be made known.
1t is expected that August l will be
the date. 1t was stated yesterday the
figures will not vary more than $500
from those already published in The
Herald.

PAYING OVER THIRTEEN CENTS.
Price of Wool is Steadily Advancing
in the North.

Wool buyers at Great Falls and Bill
lings, Mont. are now paying Is and II
cents for wool. and it is said that the
end is not yet, but little of the choice
staple of the state having reached the
marketing points. The wool that has
been sold to date at prices running
from II to Is cents has been the very
commonest staple of the north, but
little of which can command more ali
tention than is now being given the
woods of this territory that have
reached the eastern markets. AS
matter of fact, the Montana staple is
sold on its name. and that name IS
due considerably to the finer staple
shipped from this territory. western
Wyoming and eastern Nevada. Inside
information just received is to the eff
feet that the large wool houses of the
east have for years been making it a
practice to select the finer grades from
the shipments sent out of this terri
tory and the Immediate neighborhood,
and label it Montana" thereby max
ing for that state a splendid name as
a WOOL producer, when. as matter of
fact, the product of Utah, Wyoming
and Nevada is equal to any of that
produced in the north.
The news received from the north.
where the scene of wool activity has
been transferred from this territory
ana the states on the west, north and
east, is to the effect that competition
for the clips coming into Billings and
Great Falls is becoming fiercer daily
and the indications are that very high
prices VIII be obtained before the end
OF thee sales. jeremiah Williams &c
Co on Saturday purchased the entire
clip of j. E. Patterson, of Spokane, Il
very heavy one, for 49, cents per
pound, while other buyers made pur-
chases aggregating 255,0O0 pounds on
the same day and at the same city, at
prices ranging from 115s to IL cents.
Ludwig Eisemann is among the buy
ers at Great Falls and his purchases
aggregated $4,000 pounds on Saturday,
the price being i'll the neighborhood of
13 cents.
Some few small clips of wool are
stlll graVitating towards the Salt Lake
market daily. being the cleanup of the
season. The owners have held
off until now with great benefit
to themselves, for they are ali
receiving several cents more for their
wool than would have been the case
carrier IN the season. The Utah wool
has been better this year than ever
before in the history of the industry
in this territory. Those on the inside
contend that the shrinkage will be
very materially less than was the
case last year, while the staple is
longer. Taken altogether, however.
the sheep sheared in the territory
gave lighter returns than was the
case in 1894, but the value of the
fieeces was very heavily increased by
the better class of wool obtained and
the advance in prices ali along the
!ine.

THE PLAN FALLS THROUGH.
As 81 Result, Stockholders OF the
Northern Pacific Are Pleased.

Chicago, July S.-The Times-Herald
tomorrow will contain practically the
following, in its railroad column:
Many holders of the stocks and
securities of the Northern Pacific road
are we'll pleased that the plan of the
Great Northern to acquire that line
has fallen through. They figure that
the Northern Pacific under it's present
management, will give them a better
chance for their money than they
might have had under the terms upon
which the Great Northern was to as
sumo control of the property. None of
them doubt that James-J. Hill would
have given the road a most careful
and conservative management, but
under the board of contS.Ql the net
earnings have shown a very material
increase, having footed up $1,000, 900
increase during the fiscal year just
closed. It is estimated, upon the basis
of the business done during the last
fiscal year, that the net earnings of the
system for the next fiscal year will
approximate $4,000. 900 and under the
terms by which the Great Northern
was to assume control of the Northern
Pacific, all moneys over $4,000, 600 would
have gone to the aid and support of
the Great Northern. They prefer to
have Northern Pacific matters to
stand as at present.

SALT LAKE CONCERT COMPANY
Members Return From n Tour over

Members Return From u Tour Over
the, silver Circuit.
The members of the Salt Lake
Concert company returned home yes
terday after playing over the silver
circuit to Denver and returning via
the Union Pacific. The tour was
complete success from an artistic
point of view, the critics everywhere
being lavish in their praises of the
company. The organization did fair
~ well, too, financially. and the
members return in good health. good
spirits, and well pleased with the
trip. They will remain in Salt Lake
for a time resting up" before pro
ceeding on to the coast. and it is
just possible that another concert
may be given in Salt Lake
One of the Denver papers. speaking
of the concert given there says:
1.-The members of the company
scored a musical success greater than
anything of the year. They appeared
before an audience composed almost
entirely of musical people who did not
spare their hands in calling for en-
cores. Each member of the organiza-
ton is a soloist of merit and the en-
semble work was superb. The quar-
tets, uuOS anu lflOS were sung III
most admirable harmony and the
audience could hardly get enough of
them. Miss Viola Pratt, the con-
tralto, has an instrument of great
power and has it under complete con-
troll. Her numbers were among the
greatest treats of the evening. Lizzie
Thomas Edwards, the soprano, sang
the jewel song from Faust as her
number. Her voice is sweet and flute
like and she sings to high G with
ease. Her voice was pitched in exact
accord with the piano. and was no
ticeable because so many singers of
merit who come TO this altitude fail in
this respect. George d. Piper has a
sweet and soft tenor voice which he
can handle with skill. The baritone
numbers of Mr.. H. S. Goddard are
also very fine, and he is not one of
the least conspicuous of q notable
musical organization To many the
violin solos of Mr.. Weihe were the
best portions of the programme We
have had some of the greatest violin
lists of the age here in the past year
but it is doubtful if any have given
greater satisfaction than did Mr..
Weihe. Mr.. Krouse, the pianist is
also an artist.

Natural Gas Going In.

Preparations are being made by the
Salt Lake and Ogden Gas and Electric
Light company to turn in the natural
gas on the east First South street line
about the first of the coming week.
This will leave but a comparatively
small section of the city unsuppiied
with the product of the Lake Shore
wells. Where the natural gas is used
it is said to be giving the best Sf ser
vice and the mixing of the artificial
product with the flow from the Lake
Shore system gives the odor deemed
necessary for the safety of the con-
sumers. Manager Hayward states that
it is the intention of the company to
maintain the gas works at about one
third of their normal capacity in order
to manufacture gas sufficient to mix
with the natural product.

For the purpose of raising sufficient
funds with which to fully carry out
it's splendid projects. the Salt Lake r.
rigation and Power company, recently
incorporated in this city with CAPT
tai stock of $4,000, OGO, has decided to
issue per cent. bonds to the amount
of $5,000,000, or as much thereof as will
be necessary to give the company the
needed capital in addition to the sub
scriptions of the stockholders. This
action has just been taken by the
board of directors, and on Wednesday
a special meeting of the stockholders
viii be held for the purpose of ratify-
ing the work of the board. These
bonds TO be issued are to be redeem
able in thirty years, and it is an
ticipated that they will find ready
sale, in view of the security which can
be offered by the company.
AS has already been stated, this
company is the owner of a chain Of
beautiful and extensive lakes in Tin
tab county, at the head of Provo river,
which are being converted into natur-
al reservoirs for the storage of water
with which an almost unlimited acre
age can be reclaimed with the aid of
a system of canals. This land is among
the most fertile in the world and in
cludes considerable of the unoccupied
tracts of the reservations which are
to be thrown open for settlement and
location in the near future. The mem
bers of the company include some of
the most progressive business men
and property holders of the city and
they declare that the plans of the cor
poration shall be carried out fully.
There is no doubt as to the action of
the stockholders at the meeting to be
held, for without exception they will
vote for the ratification of the bond is
sue, unless all indications are at fault.

BUSINESS Is INCREASING.
Agricultural Implements Now Find
ing Much More Ready Sale.

Dealers in agricultural implements
report great increase in their bust
ness as compared with that of the
past two years but more especially
that of 1894. One Of the principal
houses in the territory yesterday
completed its reports for the month
of June and found that the increase
over the same month last year was 81
per cent. and over the same month in
1893 was IS per cent. And this is the
history of the implement business
since the first of the year. Conditions
are materially improved among the
farming classes and in consequence
the purchases of machinery and We
hicles are jumping up monthly. Harv-
est time is fast approaching, in fact,
is upon the southern districts al
ready, and sales are increasing. Not
only are sales improving but so are
collections and the indications are
that the present season will be one of
great prosperity to the farmers and
the dealers in the goods without
which farming would be very ancient.
