HARRY hYNDS WINS.
IMPORTANT GAMBLING DECI-
SION IN WYOMING.
Under the State Law the Gambler is
Entitled to Everything He Wins
Similar Case in Salt Lake.
Special to The Herald.l

Cheyenne, Wye, July IA novel
case, and one that is of more-than pass
ing interest in the western states was
settled in the supreme court today.
The case was that OF Kinney VS.. H. p.
Hynds, appealed from the Sweetwater
county court.
Kinney resides at Rock Springs. A
couple of years ago he "bucked the
tiger" in Hynd's gambling house at
Rock Springs, losing all his ready
money. Kinney had three certificates
of deposit on a Rock Springs bank.
amounting IN all TO $500 These he
cashed at the bar, one after the other,
quickly losing them on playing faro.
Kinney then produced another certifi-
cate of deposit, which the faro dealer
cashed. This money, teo, was soon
lost. Bright and early next morning
Kinney went 10 the bank and stopped
payment on the checks, which had in
the meantime been transferred to
Hynds, who at once instituted suit
against the bank and KINNEY was
promptly made defendant.
In deciding the case the supreme
court denied the right of defendant to
stop payment on the certificates and
says that the present statute of Wyo-'
ming, which permits gambling. was still
a law and must be enforced. Under
the statute granting license the state
protected him from criminal prosecu-
ton and it also means that he is en-
titled to all the money won.
The decision, which Was unanimous
states that nowhere can any decision
be found to guide the court, as the
gambling laws in other states are en-
tirely different from those of Wyoming.
Hynds has had several of these cases
and always lost in the lower courts
and never appealed TO the supreme
court. He has a similar case pending
in the Salt Lake courts.

Milwaukee, July The campaign for
the 1898 convention of the National
Educational association has become a
merry war
Salt Lake City, Los Angeles. Omaha,
Washington and Boston are in the race
and their chances seem TO be in the
order in which they are here placed.
The Utah delegation have been ex-
ceedingly wide awake. They have
opened headquarters at both the
Pfeister and Plankington hotels, and
the yellow badges of their favorite city,
with the famous Mormon temple. has
been pinned on the bosom of many a
fair schoolmaam and decorates the
lapel of probably a majority of the

reach of the persuasive eloquence of
the Utah workers. Our claims" said
L. NJ. Gillian of the committee of Salt
Lake citizens who are here to advo-
cate its advantages, ARE that our city
stands unique among American cities
in it's historic and scenic attractions.
We have more and better scenery than
anybody"
There is no question as to the energy
and ability OF the Utah delegates in
working and talking for their city.
The board of directors of the associa-
ton has not yet taken any action. but
it is said a majority favor the Utah
city
SALT LAKE OR OMAHA.
Late tonight the fight for the next
convention has eune down to Salt Lake
City and Omaha, with chances in
favor of the former. The directors viii
probably decide on the choice tomor-
row. The Salt Lake delegation is maxi
ing every effort. IL has scattered
broadcast many thousands of fans TO

of Milwaukee. advertising the lake and
Mormon temple. There is evidence
that the tide is turning in favor of the
city by the Salt Lake.

Salt Lake City delegation was shown
