BACK FROM OLD MEXICO.
'Dick" Hudnall Got Business and
Talks Glowihgly of the Country.

Dick Hudnall, travelling live stock
agent for the Colorado Midland, ar
rived from Old Mexico yesterday, where
he has been for month past, on bust
ness for that line. He was at the Gull
Len yesterday, surrounded by a gang
of cattlemen, who were all intent on
learning of the prospective cattle bust
ness that might come across the border,
and was giving it to them straight and
without any frills. The fact that he
had arranged to bring up 100 cars of
the stuff to go on the range at Rifle,
Col, made him feel particularly good,
and once in while he could not re-
frain from giving his famous "ki-yi'
yell that in bygone years so cheerfuliy
resounded on the plains of Kansas and
eastern Colorado. From the cattiemen
about he broke loose long enough to
say: 'Old Mexico and Texas are turn
ing cattle loose at rate that is aston
ishing and they are coming north as
well as going east. The Santa Fe alone
has orders for $500 cars to move the
stuff They are being run across the
border to Deming, N. NJ, and at that

It's Chi1nerical.

Down in Denver the newspapers are
engaged in building new pool lines from
that city into Salt Lake. It has been
generally agreed by most of the rail-
road writer's that the Midland and the
Gulf are the two established lines which
are looking toward a new short route
into Utah The next thing has been to
select the most feasible route, and it
has not been difficult of discovery.
Railroad men know that & survey was
made b. the Midland road from Rifle,
below Glenwood Springs, up Rife creek
into the White river country to Meeker
and thence along the White river and
contiguous water courses across the
Utah line and into the Uintah reserva-
ton, thence through the reservation to
a canyon south of Park City, and then
by easy stages to Ogden and this city.
General Passenger Agent Winchell of
the Gulf was sounded upon this pros
pect before his departure for the coast.
Mr.. Winchell is a very charming fell
low on all questions pertaining to his
own department, but he merely smiled
at the suggestion and gave no definite
reply.

We're Close Together.

Washington, April 10-Tne differences
of opinion among the Democratic men,
bers of the house upon the policy to be
pursued by the minority. which cropped
out during the debate in the short ses-
sion. held today, induced the Democrats
to hold caucus Immediately after the
house adjourned to take their bearings.
Mr.. Bailey made the first move by
offering q resolution which in substance
is as follows:
Resolved, That the Democratic mem
beers of the house of representatives are
willing to consider any legislation which
the Republicans may propose, to sup
port it if it is good. to oppose it if it is
bad. But believing that most of the
measures proposed by the Republicans
are opposed to the best interests of the
country they will not urge the Republic
cans to take action
The Bailey resolution was adopted by
a vote of about two to one. Then Mr..
DeArmond, of Missouri, offered a second
resolution declaring that the Democrats
did not endorse the Republican pro-
gramme of house sessions every third
day. The DeArmond resolution was
adopted also by a small majority many
having left the caucus when the vote
was taken

Judge Hiles delivered judgment yester-
day in the case of S. J. Brown VS.. the
Great Salt Lake & Hot Springs Railway
company. finding the issues for the de-
PENDANTS.
In this case. Brown sued the railroad
people to recover $1,000 damages for loss
of rent, etc, of certain premises on Third
West street. which he claims to have
bean the loser of on account of the de-
PENDANT operating their railroad in front
of his premises; also for $1,000 damages
10 the same. He alleged that the walls
of his building were cracked and that
the smoke from the engine damaged his
furniture, and the noise of the cars ter
rorized his family, and that in conse-
quence, his property deprr 9iated in value.
The defendant, in its .-nSwer, denies
that the laying of the track and the run
ming Of its cars deprived the plaintiff of
his easement in street light, air or ac-
cess. and that although the track had
been laid and the cars run through the
street named, it did not interfere with
plaintiffs right in the street
The court, in giving it's decision, found
from the evidence in the case that the
fee in the street is in Salt Lake City, and
that the city gave the defendants the
right to lay track and operate it's rail-
road on said street. Continuing. the
court said:
Il do not find from the evidence that
tll0 CAeiCh4ilG u the Walls VI INC pAoAiA-
tiff's buildings was occasioned by the
conclusions or vibrations caused by the
cars of the defendants, but such crack
ing was from other causes. The evidence
shows that the engines used were of good
quality for use on street railroads, and
that they We're run with reasonable care,
so as to prevent excessive or unreason-
able emission of smoke or SCOT there
from.
THE allegations of plaintiff COM
planned that the trains emit smoke, SCOT,
cinders and plaintiffs house was fire.
Quently filed Herewith, and that he has
been kept in constant danger and fear
that his house would catch fire, is not
sustained by the evidence"
The court further found that the evil
dence showed that the plaintiffs prop
erty had diminished in value since the
building of the railroad and that the
diminution was partly owing to the build
ing and operation of the road, but in
conclusion the opinion says:
Il am of the opinion as a matter OF
law that the laying of a track for the
running of cars by steam or other motor
power on the grade of q city street. and
the running of trains thereon under a
license from the city, when the fee of !
the street is in the municipality does not
give an abuttinG property owner cause
of action for consequential damages, un-
less there is a statute providing there
for when such use of the street is not
exclusive in its nature and leaves the
passage of the abutting owner to and
from his property practically free and
unobstructed and leaves the street sub
stantially free to the use of the general
public. Let findings and judgment be
entered for the defendant

THE U. P. TICKET OFFICE.
Why That Road is Justified in Main
tanning it Here.

tanning it Here.
An Issue which has been raised of
late among some of the competing city
agents of the Union Pacific is that this
road, under an agreement of the traf-
fic associations, could no longer main
tain local headquarters for the city
sale of tickets over the Union Pacific.
One Of tie rules governing such sales
was, in substance, that no line failing
to touch point on another road could
establish an Independent local ticket
office at such place. The traffic as
sociations are now defunct and mop
erative in a legal sense, but still force
full among the railroad corporations I'M
der the plan of the Western Bureau
of Statistics and Information, which
has in fact absorbed all of the old
regulations, expecting to abide by their
guidance as rigidly as under the system
that was abolished by a decision of the
United States courts. If this is genu-
inc, then the old rule would apply to
the maintenance of a local Union Pa
cific ticket office in Salt Lake since the
segregation.
Inquiry as to the application Of the
rule in this instance brought forth the
intelligence that neither the Union Pa
cific nor Short Line recognize the rights
of the Bureau of Statistics any longer
and furthermore that a provision has
been made whereby the Union Pacific
sells all east-bound tickets over the
Short Line to Ogden, and the northern
sale being handled by the Short Line
local office. Under this understanding
the Union Pacific virtually has a ter
minal in Salt Lake as the tickets of
that system read as far as Salt Lake
from Omaha, Denver or any other east
ern point. This explanation will prob
ably suffice for the competing lines.

A Forerunner at Last.

London, April 10-A special dispatch
from Athens says that the invasion of
Turkish territory by Greek insurgents
is believed to be the forerunner of a
declaration of war. 1t is added that
in spite of the numerous forces already
at the front, two further classes of the
Greek army reserves have been called
out. The Evening News this afternoon
publishes a dispatch from Elassona,
dated midnight, which says it is GER
tain the Greek invaders were semi
officially organized The dispatch adds
that IA battalions of Turkish troops
are now engaged in the movement
against the invaders, whose advance
parties retjred,n, but soon rallied and
continued the fight. The Turkish troops
are all Albanians and it is difficult to
restrain their impetuosity.
The insurgents, when crossing the
frontier, divided into three bands. The
first two of these advanced unopposed
and the third was attacked by the
Turks. All the bands then reunited
and made a good stand. The fighting
is described as being desperate. A
special dispatch from Constantinople
says that three warships of the second
division of the Turkish fleet will leave
the Golden Horn today and that three
other warshipS will leave on Monday to
join the first division in the Dardan-
elles. The greatest activity prevails
among the officials of the Turkish adj
miralty and war Office.

ordering the purchase of six coast de-

SOUTHERN UTES.
Their Reservation May Be Opened by
Presidential Proclamation Soon


Washington, April 1O.-The allotted
lands of the eastern and of the south
ern Ute Indian reservation in north
west Colorado will probably be opened
to settlement this summer by presi-
dental proclamation. Though the al
lottments have been completed, the
question of opening has been deferred
for a long time, owing to what seems
to be conceded to be a grave error in
fixing the 10th meridian of longitude.
Secretary Bliss has now taken action
and has ordered the director of the geo
logical survey to determine by astro-
nOmical observation. as soon as the
season permits, the correct location of
the meridian. This work will not re-
quire much time, and though the date
has not been considered, it is probable
the opening will be fixed upon imme-
diately after the submission of the di-
rectors report. 1t is claimed and be-
lieved by the authorities that the me-
ridian is about five miles too far west,
and the variance of lines involves about
$4,000 acres, which may inure to the
benefit Of the Indians. The meridian,
probably, will be established late in

HAWAIIAN ISLANDS.
Administration Much Disquieted
Over the News Received Lately.

Washington, April 10.-The admins
tration has been much disquieted by
the news from Hawaii, especi-
ally the facts that are set out
in the news dispatches, following
as they do the important statements
made in the last reports from United
States Consul-General Ellis Mills at
Honolulu.
The latter, after referring briefly to
the attempt of the Hawaiian govern
ment to deport a lot of Japanese cool
les who had arrived from Japan in vi
olation of the immigration laws, gave
in a short table a comparative exhibit
of the numerical strength of the va
rious nationalities represented in the
population from the islands. From this
it appears, and to the fact the consul
general called special attention, that
the Japanese population was second,
and that if the peaceful invasion"
continued at the same rate it had been
increasing during the past three years.
1t would be only matter of a year or
two before the japanese were the dom
inant power in the islands. The news
dispatches supplemented this state
ment by adVices of the turning back
of more Japanese and threats of re-
sistance TO the deportations.
When the Philadelphia sailed from
San Diego a day or two ago ii was
said that the purpose of the navy de-
partment was only to substitute a
more creditable ship at Hawaii for the
old Marion. Now, however, it appears
that the Marion is likely to be retained
on the station, instead of giving place
to the Philadelphia, and although it is
not admitted that any particular sig
nificance can be attached to the fact
that the United States will have two
WarshlpS at Honolulu, it may be fair
" inferred that the administration
feels that the time is approaching
when it must give some actual dem
onstration of the weight it attaches to
the declared policy of the government
contained in the joint resolution passed
by congress and approved by President
Cleveland, that the United States will
not permit foreign interference in the
affairs of the Hawaiian islands.
