PLUTE STILL MISSING.
Escape From the Asylum Has Not
Yet Been Found.

Provo, April MARTIN Pluto, the
inmate of the asylum who wandered
away a day or so ago. has not as yet
/ been found. When last seen he was at
the mouth of Provo canyon, and it was
at this time that the asylum manage
ment was notified that a man, pre-
sumably from the asylum, was in that
vicinity. The answer came back from
the asylum that no one was missing,
and so no more attention was paid TO
the man. Later it was discovered at
the asylum that Pluto was gone, but
the discovery was made too late to ap-
prehend him. The officers of the in
stitution are somewhat reticent about
the matter and were inclined to sup
press the fact that Pluto had escaped,
rather than make it known to the COM
munity that a maniac was among
them.

PAROLE QUESTION.
Argued In the State Supreme Court
Yesterday

al uCO LII Ii4C oIdCS supreme OOuTL
Yesterday.
In the matter of the petition of the
state of Utah on the relation of Attor-
ney General Bishop for a writ of pro-
hibition to restrain the board of cor
rectionS from paroling convicts, a de-
murrer was filed on behalf of the de-
PENDANT board, and arguments were
made thereon before the supreme court
yesterday, with Chief Justice Zane and
Justice Bartch on the bench, Justice
Miner not sitting.
1t is claimed by the relator that the
board of corrections exceeded its powers
in allowing certain convicts to be re-
leased from the state prison on parole,
and that their act in that regard is
unconstitutional. Arguments were
made in support of the petition by At
torney General Bishop, Assistant Attor-
ney General Bennex X. Smith and Mr.
C. S. Varian, and in support of the de-
murrer by Judge Powers and Attorney
A. V. Taylor after which the court
took it under advisement
Judge Powers raised an ingenious
point, arguing that the attorney gen.
eral had no standing in court in this
case, for the reason that, it was his
duty to sustain the statutes of the
state, and not to attack them on the
ground of unconsitutionality or other
wise.

tina Ellis. who asks that Alma Har-
vey, a polygamOus child, be declared
an heir at law, and entitled to par

vey, deceased. The petition sets forth
that Harvey died in this city last De-
cember and that the following January
his widow. Agnes Burns Harvey. filed
her petition for the issuance of letters
of administration 10 William Prestwlch.
1t is then set forth that the name OF
Alma Harvey was omitted in the petit
ton, that he was born in February,
1884. and is the issue of a pOlygamous
marriage. 1t is further set out that the
boy was recognized by deceased as his
son up to his death. Petitioner prays
the court to appoint Nathaniel V. Jones
to represent the boy and that So per
month be paid him out of the estate.
The demurrer presents the question
to be determined, and the consideration
of the entire legislation of the late
territory and state, is involved.
The court took the case under adj
ViSement.

district court an amended complaint in
it's suit against the Associated Press.
The plaintiff filed the original COM
plant some months ago. The defend
ants counsel, Messrs. Powers. Straup &

In the amended complaint the plaintiff
sets up its contract with the Associated

paper. and that the failure of the de-
PENDANT to furnish the news report
causes it great loss. The plaintiff asks

tract
