How Dimpsey Was Killed.

Monte Cristo. Aug. 31-Special.-Follow-
ing are details OF the killing of James t.
Dimpsey last Thursday: Dimpsey and
Thomas Rowe were below the dump OF the
q. Ii. mine. laying a foundation for
the ore chute. the timbcrs for which were
being lowered over a high cliff above by
three men with q rope. The verge OF the
Cliff was fr.nged with bushes. which fire.
quently stopped the progress OF the tim
bers. In such cases the men would haul
them up a short distance and try again.
The stick which killed Dimpsey had
caught. and he had been warned to stand
from under" and had answered to "let
II come" when the rope partly slipped and
was partly pushed off by the bushes, and
the stick, about the size of large rail-
road tie. came down end over end about
80 feet. striking Dimpsey fairly on the
side OF the head and taking him with IL
about 100 feet down the mountain. A doc
tor was instantly sent for, but Dlmpsey
never regained consciousness and was
dead before he arrived. A litter was con-
structed and the remains brought down
by pack horse to Monte Cristo TO be ship
ped To the vault at Snohomish, where they
VIII remain until instructions arrive from
his parents in England.

WOMEN CANNOT VOTE.
Decision OF the Supreme Court or tn
Territory of Utah.

Decision OF the Supreme Court or the
Territory of Utah.
Salt Lake. Aug. 31.-The supreme court
has decided that women cannot vote at the
coming election in November. This re-
verses the recent decision made by Judge
Smith at Ogden. The case came up on ap-
peal IN the suit OF Sarah E. Anderson
against Charles Tyree, registration officer
az Ogden involving the question OF women
voting. Chief Justice Merritt rendered the
decision today. He said that Judge Bartch
and himself had arrived at a conclusion
Judge King dissented on the subject
Mrs. Anderson had asked that her name
be placed on the registration list Judge
Merritt said the Edmunds-Tucker law had
not been repealed and would remain ef-
fective until statehood was achieved. Sec
ton OF the enabling act had extended the
franchise among males, but had not re-
ferred TO females. To allow females to vote
would be in conflict with the act, and was
forbidden. There had been stress laid upon
the fourth section OF the enabling act,
where the qualified voters OF the proposed
state" were authorized 10 vote. In his view
these qualified voters were those qualified
under existing laws and the enabling act.
There had been no intention on the part
Of the constitutional convention TO allow
women &c vote at the first election In No
vember next. but TO allow them to vote
thereafter. This was clearly shown in sec
ton II OF the schedule OF the constitution.

RoUND-THE-woRLD TRAFFIC.
Huntineton's Scheme of Competition
With the Canadian Pacific.

New York, Aug. 3l.-The biggest kind OF
railroad combination has just been per-
fected to wrest from the Canadian Pacific
railroad and the Canadian Pacific Steam
ship Company and its connections the
round-the-world business which Is now
controlled by the latter. This scheme TO
get control of this traffic was, it Is said,
evolved by Coils z. Huntington, president
OF the Southern Pacific railway. 1t is
nothing less than a combination of all the
trunk lines in the United States with the
principal passenger steamship lines. the
Penlnsular and Oriental Steam Naviga-
ton Company and the Pacific Mail Steam
ship Company to handle round-the-world
business in joint competition against the
Canadian Pacific Railway d Steamship
Company. While the travel under Mr..
Huntington's plan is divided between the
railroads. the transatlantic and the Bal
tlmore & Ohio lines, the entire round-the-
world traffic Is concentrated, when Ii
comes to crossing the Pacific, to the Pa
cfic Mail Steamship Company's boats.
MIR. Huntington is heavily interested in
the latter company.
A few days ago, under the plan which
has been agreed upon by all railroad and
steamship lines interested. round-the-
world tickets were placed on sale at all
the principal cities In this country and
Europe. Ii is now possible for one to
purchase n coupon ticket in New York
or any other city which will he good over
any of the big transatlantic steamship
lines. The parties to this scheme expect
to take away from the Canadian Pacific
a good deal of their business.
