SHOOTING OF BANKER STOUT.
The Suicide Theory Gaining
Ground at Salt Lake.

SALT LAKE, Dec 1O-The mysteri-
Gus shooting of eX-Banker Stout last
night is still the subject of investiga-
ton by the police, but so far very little
additional information has been gath
cred. On the statement of Mr. Stout
late last night that Cashier Jones of the
Utah National Bank did the shooting,
Jones was taken into custody by the
police, but was soon released. The sui
eide theory is gaining ground, and the
general opinion seems to be that Jones
is in no way implicated. Mr.. Stout is
resting easily tonight and it is believed
he will recover.

A so-CALLED ENDLESS CHAIN.
Scheme Put on Foot to Raise Funds
to Build Battleship.

SAN JOSE, Dec. lot has lust
come to light that a so-called endless
chain has been put in operation here to
raise funds to build a batt1eshp to be
known as the California. No publicity
whatever has been given the matter
locally. The first heard Of it was when
an attorney began. making some in
quiries about the reliability of those
who are named in it. This gentleman
had secured letter from a young lady
subscriber at Ferndale, Humboldt
County. This letter is one in the chain.
1t asks for 10 cents toward the battle
ship fund, and asks the writer to send
out four other letters, properly num-
bered to friends. The letter names w.
E. Jackson at 335 North Fourth street,
this city, as Secretary.
Jackson is a coal, hay and wood
dealer, and his number should be 355
and not 335. He was asked about the
matter. Without seeming hesitation.
he said: ''The club was organized
August Goth last. j. w. Hamble was
elected President, A. H. Upton Treas
urer and myself Secretary So far we

now coming in at the rate of five to

ing up the letters). The President and
Secretary are orchardists who live on
the Stevens Creek road a few miles
from town"
What will you do in case you do not
raise money sufficient to build a battle
ship?''
I'VE considered that, and decided to
leave the decision to the vote of the
club, possibly turn over the money to
the Red Cross"
This move will be a surprise to the
general public here. Investigations are
now being made to determine the reli-
liability of Jackson and his alleged asso-
ciates In the absence of any showing
