no time since 1852 that there has been
so much work at Roachs shipyard, in
this city, as there is now.
There is on the stocks a very large boat
for the Standard Oil Company. This
will be launched next week, but it will be
at least six months before she will be
ready 10 leave the yard, as there is a
great amount of work on her.
There are two ships for the Old Domin-
ion Steamship Company. mates TO the
Princess Ann and the Yorktown. These
ships are to take the place of ships sold
10 the Government for cruisers.
The Pennsylvania Railroad Company is
having a fine ferryboat built for the New
York business. This is nearly ready for
launching.
There is one yacht on the stocks. the
keel of which has just been laid, and
there are contracts on hand for two more
yachts, whose models have not been
brought out of the mold loft.

AN ARTISANS HUSH MONEY
Paid 10 Keep Secret a Formula for
EnamelinR.

Louisville, KY, Oct 24-It has just
come TO public knowledge that an humble
artisan here, the son of blacksmith, is
TO be paid yearly salary of s., 900 for
which he is required TO do no work, but
simply 10 keep to himself an invaluable
formula used in the preparation of en-
ameling.
This formula was his only bequest from
his father, who worked il out by thirty
years of labor.
BY contract which went into effect
Saturday the son. Aloysius Massman, is
TO be paid 5000 a year for the next five
years by six Of the largest manufacturers
in America, only one of whom is to OBJ
tain the formula. The others are paying
10 prevent the secret from being pub
lished
In 1858 Louis Massman. the father. an
artisan of Cincinnati. partially discovered
| the formula but he did not perfect il un-
til 1888 and died without obtaining any
! fruits of his discovery.
The son communicated his knowledge to
Ahrens & OFT, of this city, who paid him
! So 900 for the temporary use of 1t, and en-
J ployed him in their works.
Recently he has received repeated offers
| from Eastern capitalists for his secret,
and the Louisville firm. in conjunction
/ WIN tne nfInS OF Dawes q hAler, oI New
Brighton, Pa; l.. Wolf Manufacturing
Company and Carribben & Sexton, of
Chicago, and Jacob Yollrath, of Sheboy-
gan, Wis, signed a contract with Mass
man agreeing TO pay him 10000 for five
1 years provided he will not reveal his
formula to any other firm and will not
work in the enameling business for any
firm.
Ahrens & OFT are to continue TO use the
formula, and the other firms are TO be
protected from competition in their towns
by the guarding of the secret
AIassman has announced his intention
of entering some other business, after
he has enjoyed a rest, having probably
the distinction of being the only workman
in America drawing a good salary for do
ing nothing.

Arguments were made before Judge
Cherry yesterday in the case of the
Utah Commercial & Savings bank VS..
Isaac Trumbo. The plaintiff obtained
d Judgment and decree of foreclosure
against Trumbo for SS,S37.74 by de-
fault on Jan. y, 1898.
Colonel Trumbo then came in and
asked that the judgment be set aside
on the ground that he was not aware
that the case was coming up, and that
he had a good defense, and that the
plaintiff really owed him a large sum
OF money.
Judge Cherry. after hearing the ar
guments in support of the motion by
Judge Powers and against it by
John NJ. Zane. ordered that Mr.. Trum-
10 be allowed to file his answer, and
tina the case be tried on its merits,
hut that the judgment remain in statu
quo in the meantime.

VICTORIA IS OPPOSED TO WAR
so INFoRMS THE MARQUIS OF
SALISBURY.
Situation In West Africa Between
France and Great Britain Is Grow
ing More Critical.

London, Feb. 19-(Copyright. 1898, by
the Associated Press).-The press con-
tinues its warnings that the situation
in West Africa between France and
Great Britain is growing more critical.
It is impossible to abandon the British
flag without loss of honor, it is said
According to the Daily Chronicle,
France and Germany are casting COW
etous eyes upon Liberia and are con-
tenaplating its annexation
It is widely accepted that Mr.. Joseph
Chamberlain the secretary of state
for the colonies, is endeayoring to put
backbone into the Marquis Of Sails
bury's dealings with France, Mr..
Chamberlain persisting in viewing the
matter purely from the point of the
view of the colonial Office, and urging,
above all things, the maintenance Of
British interests as q colOnizinS power
Sir Thomas Waymess, editor of the
Speaker, is responsible for the state
ment that Mr.. Chamberlain would have
pushed his prO-British policy in Africa
to the risk of war, and the Marquis of
Sslisbury's attitude in opposing it,
therefore, lends some countenance to
the report that the queen has informed
the Marquis of Salisbury that she will
never again sign a declaration of war.
The Standard this morning, COM
menting editorially on the news from
West Africa, says:
The dispatches read by Mr.. Cham
berlain are Of the very gravest import
ance. A French officer has established
with large force a station at place
we regard as within our sphere. It
must be recognized that the time has
arrived to face the situation. The pros
pect is serious, but no English cabinet

GLADSTONE GOING HOME TO DIE.
GREAT CHANGE IN THE OLD

Example of His Power of Will to
Overcome the Infrmities of Age
British Opinion of Americans.

London, Feb. 19.-(Copyright, 1898. by
Associated Press.)-It is said Mr.. Glad
stone is coming home to die. An eye
witness who saw his departure from
the Riviera and his arrival at Calais,
reports a striking change in the old
statesmans appearance. Arrange
ments had been made at Calais to carry
his chair from the train to the hotel,
but Mr.. Gladstone was determined to
walk the distance-3O yards-and was
carefully assisted down the steps, en-
veloped in coats and rugs, and heavily
leaning on the arms of two gentlemen,
he slowly tottered to the hotel
In spite of Major Bonds denials,
while DR.. Nansen had not publicly or
to reporters criticised America, he has
been remarkably frank in talking with
his friends and does not conceal the
fact that he has been unfavorably i'm
pressed with American life. He has
great grievance against which he terms
inventions of the American reporters,
and he did not like his audiences. L
feel at home here" he said, but there,
in spite of the crowds, I felt a lack
of sympathy with my scientific
achievements. In many cases the peo-
pie only wanted to stare, and they
would have been equally pleased if I
had have gotten up and sung comic
song"
The Order of the Crown. started in
New York, is discussed with great glee
here by the Daily Chronicle. Daily Mail
and other newspapers. Vanity Fair
declares it is quite the nature of things
that such an order should be born in
New York, adding: 1T is always the
republican, the man of democratic if
not socialistic tendencies, who has the
keenest appreciation of the advantages
which aristocracy possesses
The memorial to the late Lewis Car
roll (the Rev. II. S. Dodgson) is to
take the form of a cot in the hospital
for sick children, to be called the
Alice in Wonderland Cot" A strong
committee has been formed to forward
the idea, and it is meeting with an
enthusiastic reception.

SUPREME COURT OPINION.
Lower Court Affirmed In Thompson
VS.. the Rapid Transit.

Tie supreme court yesterday handed
down an opinion in the case of Joseph
Thompson against the Salt Lake Rapid
Transit company, appellant, in which
the judgment of the trial court. award
ing the plaintiff s. 500 damages for the
death Of his 1i-year-old son, was af-
frmed.
The plaintiff sued to recover .S25. OOo
damages. alleging that mis- son. who
was a deaf mute, was run over and
killed by a car OF the defendant COM
pany on Fourth Sorth street in July
1891
The jury awarded him s15G0, and the
defendant appealed, mainly on the
ground of contTibutory negligence.
The opinion, which was written by
Justice Miner and concurred in by
Chief Justice Zane and Justice Rartch.
holds that it is contrfbutory negligence
when both parties are negligent, but
that the rule is that the party VINO last
has a clear opportunity to avoid the
accident, notwithstanding the negn-
gence Of his opponent, is wholly re-
sponsible for it. and in tllis; case il was
shown that the boy was negligent. but
that the company's servants were also
negligent, and that the wheels of the
car and the brake We're badly out of
repair, hence the judgment is affirmed.
