Between the Typographical Union
and Western Newspaper Union.
THE DELINQUENT TAX LIST
FOSTER FARMS OUT THE CON-
TRACT TO NoN-UNIoNIsTs.
Manager Newberry Brings Iii Men
From the outside-The Union
Promptly Takes Them Away From
Him and Pays Their Salaries
Looks Like a Union Victory.

The Salt Lake Typographical union
is making one of the prettiest fights
against the western Newspaper union,
which is attempting to print the delin-
quest tax list, ever made anywhere.
Manager Newberry of the Western
Newspaper union already begins to
show signs of old age and care, and,
when he came down for lunch last
night, resembled picture of the ia
nous Atlas, who used to carry the
earth on his shoulders, according to the
stories.
The union resented the awarding of
the contract to a non-union office, and
presented their claims to the board of
county commissioners. Mr.. Raw
Inns endeared himself to all the work
ingTnen by standing out for having the
job performed by union men. The
others bucked, and Foster got, the con-
tract, which he farmed out to New
berry. That worthy was waited upon
by a committee from the union, which
asked him to uniOnize his office. He
declined, saying he would rather lose
the work. So the boys began a crusade
against him. Newberry has to get
printers from the outside AS fast as a
printer comes here, the union hires him
to remain Idle. The printer accepts.
Result, last night but three printers
were working, and the indications were
good that they would quit before
sun-up.
Newberry has brought several men
from the outside, who are now enjoy
ing themselves at a three-dollar-a- day
rate, taking in the beauties of Salt
Lake scenery. Three who came in yes
terday Joined the happy band last
night. The committee waits for every
train, and as soon as a journeyman
lands, he is engaged to sit around and
look wise, or do what he pleases, at SO
per diem.
Inasmuch as there are 1000 names to
be printed, and proof read, and that
Newberry has a limited amount of
type, it is believed that ne will not be
able to get half the work done by Mon
day, when the first publication must be
made. 1t is stated he hopes to be able
to print by Wednesday, and date his
paper back to Monday but attorneys
declare that the list must be published
according to law or the entire work
will stand for naught, and every sale
made will be invalid and of no effect.
Up to last night but six galleys had
been received for proof correction at
the Office Of the county treasurer. This
is about one-seventh of the work, not
counting the time which will be con-
stunned in the distribution of type,
which means great deal.
1t looks as if the union was going to
win, and that it's determined fight for
the preservation of fair prices was go
ing to result in it's favor, with hands
down.

notify her counsel that you were going
to see her?"
To this question the chief returned
a negative answer. He said she ex-
pressed wish tc see him. and he did
not think of the matter of her having
counsel; did not regard it as important
at that tinrr
Mr.. Critchlow evidently thought he
had struck a lead, and he continued by
asking the chief if he did not veaa
talk with her concerning the insane
asylum, stating to her that she would
go to the insane asylum and be forgot
ten, or words to that effect, and if he
did not tell her the penitentiary was
preferable to the asylum
The chiefs reply to this was that he
remembered having a conversation with
her on those lines, but his memory told
him she suggested the penitentiary was
better than the asylum, and he cor
roborated this.
You knew at the time she was con-
sidered as mentally unsound?"
''Oh, 1 had no doubt as to her san
ity."
Counsel followed this with a question
as to whether witness thought this
course right and proper, to which wit
ness replied that he had been sent for
by defendant, and had done what he

when he was called, and also detailed
the finding of the stolen articles at the
place where the defendant had taken
them. He also related now the defend
ant told Of the location of the silver
ware, coming back from the place, and
how they found it.
officer Sheets testimony was on the
same lines. He also related how she
asserted she had taken the stuff to
make the people more careful.
Chief Pratt, Gillespie and Sheets We're
recalled at various times during the
afternoon, but the facts in the main
are as stated.
AS a matter of fact, the taking of the
articles has been proven beyond a
doubt. The defense viii now attempt
the showing of insanity by expert wit
nesses. Medical men will be called to
testify as to the sanity of the defend
ant, and hypothetical questions viii be
the order today.
1t is understood the state will call
physicians in rebuttal and that by the
time the case gets to the jury there
will have been more medical knowledge
scattered around the courtroom than
ever before in the history of the build
ing.
Court adjourned until 10 o'clock this
morning.

st. Louis, No, Nov. SO-AIr. William
R. Corwine, of the Merchants assocfa-
ton of New York who is in the city,
in an interview tells of the crusade
being made in New York to compel the
express companies to pay the war
stamp tax imposed by the present reve-
nue. laws.
I'm addition to the taking of the
question into the courts" Mr.. Corwine
said, "the association proposes to in
troduce a bill in the legislature this
Winter-and to fight it to finish-to
place the express companies under the
control of the railroad commission of
New York state and regulate their
charges. This fight will be a very bit
ter one The Merchants association
proposes to obtain the cooperation of
every manufacturer and every mer-
through them, to appeal to the mem
bers of the senate and assembly
through their respective districts to
support this movement" Efforts are
being made to organize similar move

Mr.. Corwine says that q project is
being pushed rapidly for the organiza-
ton, in the larger cities Of the country,
of package companies, so-called to vir-
Iudlly tahe IllS PldCe VI lhe express

not for the purpose OF making money,
but to save it for merchants and others

family OF w. D. Mathis. There were
other bCarders there, among them be-
ing Mr.. r. z. Hayward Of the Union
Light & Power company. This was
during the absence of his wife, who had
left in his possession some small silver
ornaments. During the month of Sep
TENDER a Spaniard and a Mexican
boarded at the house for a short time,
and after their departure a revolver
and an overcoat were missing. Inas-
much as they had taken a latch key
with them, Mrs. Hutchinson suggested
that perhaps one or the other was the
guilty party, and pretended to be great
ly alarmed at the situation. declaring
the lock should be changed. Before
this was done the silverware in the
possession of Mr.. Hayward was also
found to be missing. Mrs. Hutchinson
suggested that the parties who had the
key were the ones who were guilty Of
this theft.
Soon afterward, while the members
CT the family were absent, another rob-
hiagy was detected. Before going away.
SIN Mathis had carelessly thrown an
apron over a trunk standing in her
room. The next morning she discov-
cred that some one had entered the
trunk. and on locking it the apron had
caught under the lid. She thought this
rather peculiar, and remarked about it.
A few days later a son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Mathis returned home to find the house
locked He went to the rear and found
a pane Of glass broken out and the Win
dow raised. Climbing in and going to
his mothers and sisters rooms he dis
covered everything in confusion. He
at once went to his fathers store and
reported the loss. When the family
came home, Mrs Hutchinson, whose
room had been locked, came out and
declared her gold watch. diamond pin
and some other articles had been taken.
The police were notified and q list Of
the articles taken given. Next day it
was learned the defendant had taken
a lot Of stuff to a house on Eighth
West, and her arrest and the recovery
Of the property followed. Accused by
Chief Pratt. she confessed to the theft
and pleaded in extenuation she had a
son to support; that she was in trouble.
The jury having listened to this
statement. which made out the de-
PENDANT a common thief. with becom-
ing gravity, counsel for the de-
Tense, Grant II. Smith, proceeded to
make his opening statement. which was
that the defense relied upon proving
their client mentally irresponsible for
her acts. Defining crime, the attorney
declared that before q conviction could
be had. an intent must be proven The
< defense would prove that the taking
Of these goods was not larceny or that
(Seatering the place was not housebreal-
ting. because there was lacking the es-
Sential necessary to q conviction, name
ly, the intent.
Counsel declared defendant was faint
ed with insanity on her fathers side,
and that she inherited an extreme ner-
vousness from her maternal parent. In
addition to this she had been peculiar
" unfortunate ii this, that her mar
riage was an unhappy one; that two
Of her children. had died. and that she
was a physical wreck. Insanity had
manifested itself in a sort of klepto-
mania, and she had frequently taken
small articles for which she had no
use.

When the criminal branch Of the
Third district court adjourned last
night the state had practically con-
cluded its case against Mrs. T. =.
Hutchinson, the professional nurse,
charged with housebreal1ing, although
the county attorney announced to the
court he did not care to rest until court
opened this morning, thinking possibly
he might have some other testimony to
introduce.
The eighth juror was secured in the
morning, in the person OF William Nc
MILAN of the Salt Lake & Los Angeles
Office. This done. the assistant county
attorney, Mr.. Putnam, opened the case
for the state.
Counsel asserted the state would
prove the defendant to be one of the
cleverest thieves that ever piled a vo-
cation Of crime. He alluded to the Oc-
cupation of the defendant, that of a
trained nurse. and said she was room

The opening statements having been
concluded the calling CT witnesses be-
gan, and George Mathis, a son of Mr..
and Mrs. Mathis, was the first one ex-
amined
Before many questions had been
asked, counsel for the defense asked
what crime defendant was being tried
for committing, and received the an
swer that the information alleged
housebreaking, petit larceny and grand
larceny. Critchlow asked that the
state be required to elect on which
charge they would try her, but the
court held that the jury might find
defendant guilty of housebreaking
without larceny, and vice versa.
The examination of young Mathis
then proceeded, he declaring the con-
dition of the window when he came
home. Asked, on discrimination if
he could tell whether it was broken
into from the inside or the outside, ne
returned a negative reply. He could
not say there was anyone inside the
house when he came home, either.

Money stringency at London.

London financial cablegram: Stocks We're
flat here today on the sudden rise in
prices. Realizations on Americans from
New York were quickly responded to here
and inasmuch as Germany also sold
heavily, prices were generally flat, clos
ing at about the lowest. Northern Pa
cific was especially sold, it being report
ed that negotiations had been broken off
with the Oregon Navigation company.
Gold sold in the open market at 7Ss per
ounce. All the continental bourses were
weak. The possibility of a rise in the
Bank of France rate is discussed. The
best informed look for a retention of the
present money rate. Money was very
tight today and. a large amount was
loaned by the bank
