IN THE FEDERAL COURT.
ANOTHER PETITION IN INVoL,
UNTARY BANKRUPTCY.
Samuel Butterfeld and James G..
Crane of Herman, the Parties
Nan1ed-Rounds VS.. The Tribune.

A petition was filed in the federal
court yesterday by Elijah f. Sheets,
William Cornick and William L. Bind
er Of Salt Lake City, asking that Sam
uel Butterfield and James c.. Crane Of
Herman be made bankrupts. 1t is
alleged that they are engaged in sheep
raising and that their debts exceed
$4,000. The petitioners claim that they
are creditors in a sum exceeding $4,000,
which is not secured.
1t is alleged that on Sept. 1, 1897,
each of the petitioners made contracts
with Butterfield & Crane, by which the
latter received in the aggregate 5,125
sheep, agreeing to pay 10 lambs for
each 100 sheep and agreeing to deliver
an average of the whole head of sheep
for a cut off 1851 sheep, including the
lambs, the sheep at the time delivered
being worth S2.75 per head. 1t is alleged
that Butterfield & Crane only delivered
2,641 head and that value of those
which they failed to deliver is $7,713.
1t is alleged that on June 1, 1898,
Butterfield d Crane became insolvent
and that the aggregate of their prop
erty will not, at a fair valuation. be
sufficient to pay their debts.
1t is further alleged that they COM
mitted an act of bankruptcy on Aug.
Is, 1898, by transferring, while in
solvent, 100 head of sheep of the value
of 1925 to Ritter Drug company, Mont
pelier, Ida, who were creditors only
in the sum of S265. Il, the effect of the
transfer being to enable the Ritter
Drug company to obtain a greater per-
centage of their debts than other cred
itors. Also on the same date they
transferred to Ridd G Anderson, Mont
pelier, Ida, 100 sheep, of the value OF
1925, when they were creditors only foI
S259. So.

Determined Nothing Against SPANS
Sovereignty.
CONFERENCE TO DECIDE
REGARDING OWNERSHIP OF THE
PHILIPPINES
No Disappointment Felt In Washing
ton, Commissioners Having Pro-
ceeded Exactly as Anticipated
Way Now Open For Compromise-
Monetary Difference the Obstacle.

Paris, Nov. 5.-Regarding the peace
negotiations the Spaniards affect to be-
lieve that the Americans had planned
TO develop the spirit of their Philip
pines demand before the American
elections, but the decline to say
whether they expect easier terms after
the election. The entire clerical force
OF the American commission was busy
the greater part of last night in hand
ling the Spanish presentment to the
council, and the commissioners at the
same time examined IL with a view to
today's private session Of the American
commission for the formulation of a
response.
1t may again be asserted on the
highest authority, as bearing on the
Spanish argument, that when the pro-
toeol was signed there was no under
standing, verbal or otherwise, which
the protocol does not show forth. Nor
have the American commissioners, at
any time, on the other hand, held or
believed that the protocol determined
anything against SPANS sovereignty in
the Philippines. The American repre-
sentatives have, however, held, and
doubtless viii hold, that the protocol
meant to provide and does provide for
a decision by the Paris conference re-
garding the ownership of the Philip
pines.
In this connection, too, the Americans
viii undoubtedly cite the fact that
originally the protocol contained the
word possess" instead of disposition, .
the latter having been substituted at
NJ. Cambon's request, and in Difference
to Spanish sensibilities. The original
reading viii unquestionably be required
to now as indicating the mental atti-
tude of the American signers of the
protocol toward American possession of
the Philippines. This line of reasoning
naturally viii in"'ude the question of
the precedent WI 'e Spaniards say
was created by II sal of the Unit
ed States to cons lie Cuban debt,
because it was not mentioned in the
protocol.
1t is possible that the American 1}m-
missioners may finally concur with
the Spanish contention that the capt.
ulation of Manila. coming after the
signing of the protocol, was invalid. In
that event the Americans may cite, as
an Offset to the tariff duties collected,
their own expenses in administering
the government of Manila and enforc-
ing order. They may also ask if Spain
wishes the insurgent Gordon sOf the city
and the insurgent control of the water
works re-estabiished as a step toward
the restoration of the status quo ante
which the Spaniards declare was bro
ken by the Americans.
Finally, Spain may be asked to con-
slider whether, instead of being pris-
oners of the United States, the Spanish
troops at Manila were not more exact
ly refugees within American protection.
But, however the contentious may re-
suit, there are at present no indications
of a rupture.

Lewis States His Case.

To the Voters of Salt Lake County:
Almost at the very end of this cam
paign, in which 1 am an independent
candidate for sheriff, find it necessary
to correct false impressions regarding
my candidacy which has been put in
circulation by my enemies for the pur-
pose OF injuring me. They have stated
that 1 have become a. candidate in or
der to benefit Condie, the Republican
candidate for sheriff, and to injure
Howells, the Democratic nominee, and
without any hope of success for my
self. 1 am a candidate because l want
the office, and because 1 believe 1 will
be elected. 1 expect to defeat both
Condie and Howells, and I don't care
which of them finishes second.
Neither of them is no more earnest
and honest in his candidacy than 1 am.
I became a candidate at the solicita-
ton of many friends, who believed my
services to the county as Sheriff during
the past two years merited for me an
other term from the taxpayers and
voters of the county. I ask only an
honest inspection of my record and
that they then vote for me, if they
deem me deserving.

LONG DISTANCE TALK,
A BUSINESS CHAT OVER TWO
HUNDRED AND FORTY
MILES OF WIRE.
George T. ode1 Tests the Telephone
Service to Idaho Falls and Says
Goodbye to the Telegraph Service

A most interesting interview took
place yesterday over the Rocky Noun
tair Bell Telephone company's wire be-
tween this city and Idaho Falls. 24O
miles away. On this end, in the office
of the Cooperative Wagon & Machine
company, were Mr.. Odell, manager of
that company; Messrs. Wallace and
Murray of the Telephone company. and
several newspaper men. At the other
end was stationed G.. c.. Wright, man
aSer of the Idaho Falls branch of the
Cooperative Wagon & Machine COM
pany. The conversation was held for
the purpose of determining just how
much business could be talked over the
wire in given spaces of time, half d
minute, a minute and a minute and a
half. All the conversation detailed be-
low, 319 words, took place in one min
ute and 20 seconds. The first 90 words
passed in 80 seconds; as the telephone
cOmpany's charges for talking that
length of time to Idaho Falls are so
cents, and as it costs so cents to send
ten words to the same point, the super
iority of the telephone service is easily
seen. Mr.. Wright's replies were as
plainly audible as though he were
speaking from Ogden or Logan. Here
is the conversation. as it took place in
the space of a minute and 30 seconds,
the regular charge for which would be

tabernacle, he obtained information
which led him to make the accuaint-
ance of G. E. Johnson, the well known
photographer, and he discovered that
this gentleman was the-son of his
mothers uncle, so long lost to his rela-
tives and friends.
Mr. johnson gave Mr.. Coffin a right
royal welcome. having found a distant
relative, Mr.. Coffin also being enter

CURED IN ONE MONTH BY GuTICURA

When my baby was four months old her
skin broke out, and thought it was ring

was Eczema. He gave me medicine to give
her, but she kept getting worse all the time,
and you could not tell what she looked like,
her little face and hands were so covered with
sores and large scales. 1t got under her little
finger nails. She was tlle worst looking sight
1 ever saw heard of CuTIcuRA REMEDIES,
so thought would try them. Before tried
them we got no rest at night. She could not
sleep it itched so. After gave her CUTICURA

commenced to dry all up and she would sleep
all night, and when it was drying up the skin
all cracked open, so then got CUTIoURA (oint-
ment) and CUTIcURA SOAP, and in one month
she had not one sore on her face, and don't
think it is any more than justice to let you
know what it has done for my baby. She now
is fifteen months old and has got beautiful
