just a Rumor, That's All.

San Francisco, May 27.-The report
has been current, credited to Billy
Madden, Goddard's manager, that
PRESIDENT Newhall of the Olympic
club, had offered a purse of $751; 600 for
night between Fitzsimmons and God
GARD. Secretary Kennedy of the Olym-
PIC club stated this evening that such a
proposition had never been considered
either by the directorate of the club
or by its president. At an informal
conversation among half a dozen club
members, not long ago. the desirability
OF such contest, from a standpoint of
good sport, was discussed, but Ken
nedy said Madden had never seen
president Newhall. He added thai the
olympic club would like TO arrange for
such meeting, although it could not
o1er $4,000 purse. He could not say
how large a. prize could be offered. as
the club management had never dis
cussed Madden's proposal

HOW THE LATEST NEWS WAS
RECEIVED AT PRICE.
Intending Locators Now Camped
Upon the Edge of the Reservation
Price Promises to Be a Lively
Town in the Future.
Especial to The HeraldN

Price, Utah, May 2T.-Dispatches re-
ce1ved here today from Washington, D.
c., stating in effect that the final agree.
ment upon the Indian bill was yester-
day practically concluded in congress
by the action of the senate agreeing to
a conference report relating TO the I'm
compahgre Indian reservation question,
has created renewed interest to that
already existing. The information is
also coupled with the announcement
that the government reserves the title
to gilsonite and asphaFtum lands. The
Associated Press correspondent has in
terYIewed several prominent residents
OF this section on the subject of the
opening of the reservation under the
land laws of the United States. The
consensus Of opinion expressed here is
that under all existing circumstances
TINS action is about the best settle
ment of this vexed question at the
present time. Although it postpones
indefinitely the opening Of the gilsonite
and other valuable mineral lands with
IN the reservation until further action
is taken by congress, expressions Of
hope are made that favorable action
in this direction will be taken at an
early date when congress reassem bles
next winter. Several months since
proSpectors and locafcTs trespassed
upon the reservation for the purpose
of taking up giisonite and other valu-
able mineral lands, actually driving
their stakes, posting their notice and
registering their locations. This pro-
ceeding having come to the knowledge
of the government through the COM
manding officer at Fort Duchesne, the
war department at Washington ordered
that the officer at once utilize the serv-
ices of his troops and escort the would
be locators from the reservation and
remove their stakes and notices. These
orders were Immediately and vigor-
ously obeyed although the would-be
locators as vigorously protested, claim
ing they had not encroached upon the
reservation. Within few past months
locators from various sections
of the country have purchased outfits
in this town, such as horses. wagons
and implements. They are now en-
on. the edge of the reservation,
awaiting an opportunity to locate.
Within the past few days parties
have arrived here. making close in
quiries with reference 10 establishing
business, and this town promises in
the near future to be one of the live
Hest in Utah. 1t is said the Indians
themselves are not ignorant of the fact
that congress is about to take some
definite action in reference to the res
ervation. They frequently inquire
through their interpreters the latest in
formation from Washington which so
directly interests them.

AS Seen bz the Sultan.

London, May 2S.-The correspondent
of the Standard at Constantinople
says:
The immediate encourage of the sui
tan favors restoring Thessaly to
Greece. The Turkish foreign minister
has spoken on the subject in a con-
ciliatory tone to the Austro- Hungarian
ambassador, asking only a little delay
in order that public excitement may
subside.
On the other hand, the whole official
and religious world, including the
Sheik- Ul-Islam. denounces the idea of
restoration; while every military meas
ure points to retention. Even those
who had supposed that the sultan was
manufacturing the excitement in or
der to exact better terms from the
powers, are beginning to think he has
gone too far and lost control of the
situation.
Russia does not conceal her extreme
irritation at the German policy, which
is so openly and persistently directed
against Russia that many Turks ac-
cuse Germany of deliberately plotting
to produce a rupture between the two
countries.

Oakland, Cal, May 27.-Creditors of
Monroe Salisbury, the horseman, tried
today in the superior court to learn
something of his financial affairs. The
examination developed into a battle
over three valuable race horses, name
~. Azote. Rect and Miss Margaret.
These were to have formed part of the
string Salisbury is now taking east.
Saturday night the sheriff was placed
in charge of the stock as they were
about to leave Pleasanton.
Charles /. Griffith made demand
for the horses. He declared that they
belonged to his fathers estate and that
Salisbury had no interest in them.
The creditors decided to raise the en-
barge and TO permit the horses TO CO.
A bond for $1,000 was given.

sold a half interest in Azote to Millen
Griffith before the iatter's death. Azote
was purchased originally in 1884 for
$500. A petition to throw the stock
farm into insolvency will be heard to-
day.
