on a public building for Salt Lake,

mittee to introduce separate bills for
each city. but refused, stating that all
Utah asked was that buildings be

Utah and decided to give that to Salt
Lake.

one at Reno, New.

troll, and throw himself into the con-

about the affair today. said:
when Consul Hall asked Governor
General Marin for an explanation of the
occurrence, the governor told him, with
a smile on his face, that the shot was
fired at a woman who was looking over.
the wall, at the side of the public high
way, into the prison.
Marin asserted that it was the rule of
the prison for the guards to fire upon
any. person looking over the wall. The
wall is but four feet high, and person
passing along the street could not well
help seeing the, prison yard, so that the
explanation vouchsafed by General Marin
did not satisfy Consul Hail. who thinks
the shot was fired at him Intentionally.
Mr.. Hall says that only few mo-
ments before. the shot was fired he saw
an officer of the prison walk out to the
guard and apparently give him some in
structions. He says that since he has
been at st. John there has not shot been
fired from the prison, although numerous
persons have stood in the street and
looked over the wall into the prison
yard"
