THE ELECTION CASES.
Judge Bartch Now Holds That the
Prohibition Writs Should Issue.

Judge Bartch Now Holds That the
Prohibition writs Should Issue.
Attorney John NJ. Zane, Of counsel
for the petitioners in the election cases
from Sanpete county, recently tried,
called up the matter once more before
Judge Bartch. His honor, he said,
had passed upon the mandamus cases
and granted the writ. but now what
about the prohibition phase Of the
question, which, he presumed. fas TO
the findings. was under Amusement
Judge Powers, on the side of counsel
for the Utah Commission, remarked
that if this matter was about to be
taken up, he would first like to go into
the other courtroom and fetch At
torney Farley L. Williams, his asso-
ciate.
Judge Bartch said that Judge Ben
nett had previously spoken to him on
this subject and desired that it be not
taken up until he could be present.
Mr.. Zane observed that Judge Ben
nett was with us" on this matter.
Judge Bartch then said he might be
mistaken; it might have bean Attorney
Ogden Hiles who spoke to him.
Mr.. Hiles, who was now in court,
said it was not he, and suggested that
perhaps it was Judge Miner.
Without discussing the doubtful
point further Judge Bartch said the
matter might go over until the after
noon.
At 3 o'clock, the matter came up
again. Attorney John NJ. Zane said
that while they were not insisting on
a decision Immediately they would
like to know how the matter stood.
The record showed that his honor had
the writ of prohibition under advise
ment and at the same time the clerk
had an order to enter UP Judgment
showing that the writ had been denied.
Judge Bartch said he had not ordered
! the writ to issue because he saw no
! occasion for it,. because the respond
ents had agreed in court to issue the
/ certificates. He had not, however.
! held that the writ would not lie as
! a matter of law. In view of the facts
/ mat other writs were pending, he
thought the Supreme court should mass
upon them and hence would grant fine
/ writ 80
Judge Powers asked that the ex.
! ceptlon be entered to the order. direct
ing the Writ TO issue. The writ of nT-0-
MORTON was needless after the writ
| OF mandate was granted.
I "uuSe bdTICIl SAID that at the tiut,
ne passed upon the matter, first it was
understood that the Box Elder and
| Weber county cases would follow tha
ruling in the Sanpete cases. He Womb
now suspend the actual issuance of
the writ Of prohibition although hold
ing that it should be granted. This
ruling Judge Bad'tCll holds throws the
costs on the respondents, who gave
notice OF appeal In. both cases of man.

COPPER PLANT AFFAIRS.
Hearing ON Order to Show Cause
Continued Till Saturday.

continued TIL saturday.
The case of E. W. Singer vs. the Salt
Lake Copper Manufacturing company
engaged Chief Justice Merritt's atten-
ton for a short time The Plaintiffs
herein ask that the unrecorded deed of
trust securing promlssQry notes to the
amount of 100000 be 3adiudged prior to
the recorded deed of trust in which the
trustee is a. Hanauer
Judge Dey Oev & STREET. on the part
of certain defendants, applied. to have
the hearing ON the order to show cause
taken UP forthwith; but Attorney P.
L. Williams announced that the plain
tiff was not ready to proceed, he being
now on his way here from Chicago
Judge Dey thought that the whole
matter could be disposed of on one
question of law. He then said that Mr..
Singer had a lis pendenS which, he in
sisted, would prohibit him, and an in
Junction was net needed.
Mr.. Williams declared that the hear
ing would consume one day at least,
and the most important witness was
| now absent. The sale, he said, defer
red by the restraining order, was post
poned with the consent Of the defend
ants before the temporary injunction
was issued.
Judge Dey said the claim was for
$4,000 and the lis panldens conferred
100000 worth of property.
Mr.. VdnCOtt remarked, however that
plaintiff was interested in this to the
extent Of $4,000 only. If the validity of
the unrecorded deed of trust were es-
tabhshed it would call for the sum of
100000.
Judge Marshall, of counsel for the
intervenors, urged a speedy hearing,
The plaintiffs claim was for $25, 600
only, he said, and the holders of the
$4,000 included in the unrecorded deed
of trust EUere in opposition to him.
After some further talk Judge Merritt
fixed the hearing for Saturday next.

United States or Territorial Laws.

Attorney ]. \. Williams argued a de-
murrer to the indictment of James W.
Smith, charged with the fraudulent use
Of the United States mails. The indict-
ment charges that the defendant took a
other j. W. Smith, and distracted there
from draft for about $3.50, which he APP
propriated to his own use.
Counsel for the defendant demurred to
the indictment being returned charging
the offense as being against the laws of
the United States, and argued that if
crime was committed it was simply a
theft Of the amount from the letter box
of the other j. w. Smith, and therefore
an offense against the territorial statutes.
Judge Bartoh after hearing the argu-
ments, took it under adYisement.
