HOTEL AND CORRIDOR.

Gus Holmes is enthusiastic over his
trip to the east and declares that with
proper encouragement millions of eastern
capital can be brought here to boom the
dormant industries which we have. He
says, while among those who have money
down east he was confronted all the
time by men who, after listening to his
conversation concerning the multifarious
advantages which Utah has, her mines
and minerals and other resources which

where polygamy is said to have flourish

Gus says that question is a hard one to
answer. He is only one man and cannot
advertise the state alone. In the past
five years the hotel with which he is con-
nected. has sent out in advertising mat

with was somewhat alarmed by hav-
ing three or four men in partial dis
guise pointed out to him, and he at
once communicated with headquarters,
announcing the best thing to do was
TO place Turner in a place of safety.
He also urged that extra men be kept
on duty all night, and that the jail be
strongly guarded.
A reporter on another morning paper
heard of the story and bit. nicely, and
there was small sensation around
the city for a time. As a matter of
fact there was no more of an effort

capture Fort Douglas and declare Utah

The side-rod of the engine fell off the

experience was thrilling one. There
is nothing that will shake an engine
running at full speed worse than an
event of this sort. In this particular
instance, an employee of the road says
that the engine ''teetered'' horribly,
but that the engineer was equal to the
emergency. He applied all the air and
gave the driver brakes all they would
stand and brought the train to a stand
still so quick that a Chicago man, who
was sleeping with his head toward the
engine, bursted the panel next to him
and shot half length into the next
berth, where spinster from Chadron,
Neb., was sleeping, and only escaped
arrest for premeditated assault by the
explanation of the conductor, who re-
lated the facts in the case.

ANOTHER VICTIM.
Case Where the Pasteur Treatment
Was of No Avail.

Baltimore, Dec. 26.-Conrad Eppers,
aged Is, one of the eight boys who
were bitten by a mad dog on Decem-
Der /, and were treated at the Pasteur
institute, New York, died of hydro
phobia at midnight at his home in
Woodbury., Eppers returned from New
York a week ago last Wednesday, and
it was thought he was cured as his
wounds, which wee on the back of
his neck, had healed nicely Several
DAYS ago he became nervous and de-
spondent. and unmistakable symptoms
of rabies became apparent. His ply
sicians were with him almost con-
stantly 70 the last, but could do moth
ing to alleviate his sufferings. Eppers
was the second victim of the mad dog
which ran amuck through the North
ern Annex on December / and bit the
eight school boys. Another of them is
believed to have the dread disease.
The condition of the other five young
sters is reported to be favorable for
complete cure from the effects of their
wounds.

MONETARY REFORM.
M'KINLEY'S MANAGER ADVANC-
Els SOME IDEAS.
Hanna Believes It Would Be Suicide
For the Convention to Agree
Upon Bill or a Detailed Plan.

Indianapolis, Ind, Dec. 26.-The exec
form convention met this afternoon at
the headquarters in the Denison house,
and Mr.. Hanna laid before it the re-
suits of his eastern trip. He was more
than gratified at the universal inter-
est he found in the subject among the
best and most influential men of the
cities he visited. In PittSburg and
Philadelphia meetings were held by the
best known business men of those cit
les, and they gave expression of the
most cordial support to the movement
for a non-partisan effort to reform
the currency. He says in New York
and Boston he met with the same en-
couraging reception, and was kept
busy comforting with the large num-
bers of well known business men who
called upon him to display their inter
est in the convention. During the Ses-
sion of the committee the question
arose as to what the convention was
apt to do, and Mr.. Hanna expressed
himself with much feeling upon the
subject:
II feel that it would be not only a
mistake" said he, but it would be
suicidal for the convention to endeavor
to agree upon a bill or a detailed plan.
While it will in all proba bility adopt
resolutions, / sincerely trust that it
will leave the matter of details to a
commission which can sit three months
or six months, if necessary, to study
this question in all it's various phases,
to consider every plan and every sug-
gestion that is brought before it, and
to finally devise a currency plan that
can meet the approval of all classes.
It is not alone the commercial class
or the manufacturing class, or the
banking class whose interest must be
looked after, but the farmer, the me-
chanic and the wage Garner are as
deeply interested as any other and
their interests must be taken care off,

Especial to The Herald.)


Butte, Mon, Dec. 26.-Peter Welcome,
a rancher, shot and killed Arthur
Vieau, a neighbor, near Great Falls,

self-defense, but it develops today into
one of the most cold-blooded murders
in the history of the state. A big pool

he was shot there. Three shots were
fired into head and body. The MUIR

a wagon standing in the yard and
placing the body of his victim therein
drove to his own ranch, where he de-
posted the body under the window
He then ripped off some boards from
the house to bear out the self-defense
story. After fixing the scene, Wei
come returned with the team and
wagon to Vieau's place, where they
were left as found. From Vieau's barn
to Welcomes shack, a distance of a
quarter of a mile, is trail OF blood
