After the SO-Yard Record,

At Boston Saturday the champion sprln-
ter. Bernard j. Nefers, just failed by the
smallest fraction Of second to equal an
other worlds record. He competed in the
eishty-yard run, and in the first heat in
the seTni-finals ran close to Wendell Baker S
record of eight seconds One watch got
eight second fiat. Another got SIS The
third watch got between 8 and SIS Sec
onds, and it was thought best to let the
time go as s Is seconds. This establishes a
record for the distance in competition AS
the track was heavy, everybody is satisfied
that Wefers can equal, if not break the
record.

The Court Martial.

Although the militia court martial

terry A sealed their verdict and sent
it to the Governor sealed and have
not divulged their proceeds on the
Constock, the Enterprise learns that
in the Morgan case the members of
the court stood six for verdict of
gully and one for a verdict of not
guilty. 1t will be remembered that
three of the 16 privates and non-com-
- 2sioned officers tried on charge of
mutiuy were excused ON it's being
found that they were not present at
the two meetings of the the Battery
at which it was claimed the mutiny
had occurred. The sixteen who stooG
trial were found guilty and fine was
proposed as punishment for them.
Captain Ryan, however, stood out
against the imposing of fine and it
was finally decided that they should
be reprimapded. The findings of the
court martial are still in the hand of
the Governor for his sanction.

A Sensations, Suit.

n says sui OF decidedly sensa-
tlonal character has been filed by
Nellie O.Donnen against Henry T..
Byrle, Celia Byrne, Daisy B. Byrne,
Marie S. Murphy and Eugene p.
Murphy. Nellie O'Donnen was for
many years the trusted housekeeper
OF ). NJ. Byrne, capitalist and real
estade owner, who died last Septetn
Der. The plainti T charges that Byrae.
had upon numerous occasions, de-
clared his intentions of making suit
aole provisions for her maintenance
after his death, and that shortly be-
fore his death Byrne took from a safe
an envelope Endorsed with her name
and containing 200 shares of the
capital stock of the Market Street
Railroad Company, fifty shares Of
the capitol stock to the Spring VAL
ley Water Co, and other stocEs and
bonds Of whicha description is not
given in the complaint.
The confidential relation existing
between Mr.. Byrne and his house
keeper were such that she alone was
intfusGed with the combinat ton OF
the safe. Upon the death of Brine
it was found that he had left will
disposng of the bulk of his estate to
his relatives, but making, it is said,
no disposition of the stocks and
bonds given, as alleged, to Miss
O'Donell.
Miss O'Donen alleges that on the
day after the death Of Byrne, Henry
l.. Byrne, accompanied by his wife
and daughter, called at the house
and demanded the combination OF
the safe and insisted upon his right
to open the safe and examine it's
contents. She at first demurred, but
as Byrne was extremely obstinate,
she irally yielded and gave him the
combination.
On the following day the executors
visited the house and. made formal
examination of the safe pud an in
ventory of it's contents. Among
other papers they found an envelope
ad dressed to Miss O'Donnen, that
contained twenty live shares Of the
capital stock Of the Spring Valley
Water Company, but the OTHER vail
liable stocks, including 200 shares of
the stock of the Market Street Rail-
way Company, which Byrne had, az
alleged, given to Miss O'DonaeU,
were missing. Upon the above state
ment Of facts Miss O'Donnen predi-
Gates her suit.
In particular she accu ses Henry L.
Byrne OF having frauduleutly con-
verified the stocks to his own use, and
in support Of the allegation she
points 10 the fact that since the death
OF his father, Henry L. Byrne has
caused to be transferred to him ON
the books of the Market Street Rail.

with the 'acit approval of the British

ties necessary tn the maintenance of the
canal. Already, as reported recently
In the Washington correspondence of
the Record, one company has monopoly
of the wharfage at one end of the canal,
while another has secured the exclusive
right vt navigation on river which is to
be- part of the waterway, and still a

of the canal
That these private concessions will
come handy later on in giving Great
Britain preteXt for enforcing its de-
sires with respect to the canal may be
set down as certain. 1t Is also certain
that in the years to come the commercial
needs of the Atlantic coast as well as
those of the rest of the world will have
forced the opening of the proposed
shorter route to the nations of the South
Pacific. The question to be determined
at Washington is whe ther the United
States or some foreign power is to be

Americans such domination is this

every other power.
/ Unfortunately, not only is the work on
the canal allowed to lag, but not even a
protest in maintenance of the American
rights is made when a foreign power
through the enterprises of its capitalists
begins to make eDcroachments which

on the situation. Up to the present
Great Britain has been content to let
Americans bear the expense of building
the canal, the British themselves to
share in its advantages under the "neu-
trality" stipulations of the treaty of
1850 Now it seems disposed to gain
still further advantages so that even if

NEW ROAD ASSURED.

The news published exclusively
in the Press last week relative to the
visit of Donald Mclean, the rail
road promoter, to Ogden and the
building of the Pacific Short Line
was source of pleasant surprise to
the business men of this city. 1t
was likewise a surprise to majority
of the railroad men. They antici-
pated the road would be built, but
were not aware that work would be
commenced in the very near future.
Mr.. Mclean went to Salt Lake on
the 21st and in an interview au-
thenticated the story published by
the Press. The road will not only
be built to Ogden, but will be con-
tinued westward on about the Gar
field and Saltair beach routes to
Deep Creek.
G. K. Bannister at present mana
ger of the Pioneer Power company
of this city was formerly chief engi-
neer of the Pacific Short Line and
will resume his old position.
Mr.. Mclean had several letters of
introduction to prominent citizens
in Salt Lake from Senator Cannon.
In the interview had by Salt
Lake reporter Mr.. Mclean was
asked if it was true that the Pacific
Short Line was to be built, and he
replied that it was and work was
being done already in getting to-
gether all the old surveys and
papers relating to the road. He
further stated that the whole line
would be replatted and surveyed,
and as soon as the weather permits
he will have three or four parties
in the field.
When asked if the money had
been secured and how much was
necessary to build the road to San
Francisco, he stated that the Con-
tinental Trust company of New
York is trustee for the amount
which is being supplied from Lon
don, and $32,OO0,0O0 would be re-
quired.
Going into the details, he ex-
planned that the old Pacific Short
| Line would be taken up where it
