Tables Neatly Turned On Him In
Nielsen's Court.
HAD MRS. HUNT ARRESTED
SHE IS ACQUITTED AND COSTS
ASSESSED AGAINST Him.
A Lively Battle In the Case of Frank
Ripe, In Which Judgment Is
Finally Entered Against the De-
fendant-Otto Hudson Discharged
Police Notes.

The tables turned on Andrew Tanner in
Justice Nielsens court yesterday in his
attempt to prosecute Mrs. Caroline Hunt,
proprietor of the Montana House, 25i
West South Temple, and Frank Gray,
one of the dodgers. Andrew complained
to County Attorney Van Colt that Mrs.
Hunt had made an assault upon him with
a knife, while he was stopping at the
place, and further that she withheld from
claimed that Gray drew a gun and threat
ened to blow off his head. Warrants We're
accordingly issued for the arrest OF both
parties and also a search warrant for the
recovery of his goods.
The testimony in the case was very
damaging to Tanner. however. When the
officer armed with a search warrant,
went to the house, he found Tanner s
property in a sack, awaiting his disposal.
Further. when Mrs. Hunt took the stand,
she testified that when assigning Tanner
a room on the evening of his arrival, he
undertook to take privileges with her, but
she thought it best to get along without
raising a disturbance. When on the 1ol-
lowing morning he repeated his advances
she again protested. this time more Wig
orously by modestly tiourishing a knife,
though not wishing to harm him. MI.
Gray, who was in another room, when ne
learned of Tanners actions, appeared ana
flashed a gun, ordering him to Vacate
the premises on short order. Tanner tried
to make it appear that he had no evil de
signs against the woman, although ad-
hitting the truth of much of her allega-
tions.
Justice Nielsen felt from the evidence
that Tanner was the one VINO should nave
been arrested. He accordingly dismissed
the cases and assessed the costs, amount
ing to $3.50, against Tanner, who refused
to pay it, and was ordered taken to the
county Jail. Later, on the advice of the
county attorney he was released and the
judgment of costs was entered against
him as in a civil suit.

S. P. SURVEYING PARTY.
Engineer Corps Now Headed For
Beaver.

The Southern Pacifics party of sur
veyors are now. according to all re-
ports, past the Sulphur beds, and head
ing fer Beaver City. They have been
camping at Sulphurdale until a couple
days ago. when they moved about ten
miles south.
Every member Of the party maintains
silence regarding their movements. but
people who come from there and have
inspected the character Of the work the
party is doing, say that it denotes
something more than exploration.
The Beaver Blade has it thai several
men have hired out from Beaver to go
to work IL Clear Creek canyon. What
the work was the men themselves did
not know. except that it was rock work,
and speculation is rife among the Bea-
vel. people as to whether the company
is not beginning work on the tunnels
surveyed by the engineer corps. Beaver
people think they Will have a railroad
within year.
Railway officials here are rather in
clined to think the Southern Pacific is
running a bluff, or at best, making
some explorations. The idea that it is
going south for coal is secuted, be-
cause il already owns very extensive
coal mines in other localities, where it
does not cost near SO much to get at
the product; besides, it is said. coal
discovered in the region near Beaver
is not well suited for motive power

Went AGAINST Rippe.

A formal suit was brought yesterday
against Frank C. Ripe, one Of the pro-
prietors of the Delicatessen cafe on Main
street, as an absconding debtor, before
Justice Sommer, who found Judgment
against him in the sum of 1891 in FAVOR
or the complainant, r. b. Rogers, who
held an interest in the DelicateSSen.
Ripe was established in business by
Steve Keene and K. T.. Rogers of the
Merchants cafe, and finally sold a haif
interest to Mrs. Crooks Later he dis
posed of the other half and made pre-
parations to go to Butte, informing Keene
that he would pay him as soon as he got
nersnip loan against Ripe, amounted to
which was served Wednesday night by
Constable West few minutes before his
intended departure for Butte. He put
up a cash bond of $3.50 for mis- appearance.
The case was opened at 10 a. m. yester-
day, and during the morning an effort
was made by Rlppe's attorneys, Powers,
Straup d Lippman, to secure his release,
but the court ordered him held. The queS-
ton of the insufficiency of the bond was
next urged by plaintiff counsel, q. w.
Sonnedecker and Z. G.. Rognon, but it
was decided sufficient by Justice Sommer.
The case dragged on until late in the af-
ternoon, during which a tangle of fgures
engaged the attention of the court, who
finally found for the plaintiff in the sum
of S93 81 and issued an execution. The
testimony of Ripe did not indicate Min
tent to defraud his creditors. The claim
of Rogers is supposed to include that Of
Keene'S also.

The Lagoon at Harrington will have
an addition Of two buildings from the
exposition at Omaha next summer. Mr..
Bamberger received word from Omaha
yesterday that his bid for the apiary
and dairy buildings was successful, and
the property, therefore, became his.
1t was Mr.. Bamberger's original in
tention to bid on the big agricultural
building, but since his visit TO Omaha
the exposition people decided 1t might
be a good idea to run the show an
other year. He therefore instructed his
chief engineer, Mr.. Kirk, to bid on the
dairy and apiary buildings, which, it
was understood. would be sold regard
less of the action of the Omaha people
relative to the continuance of the eX-
position for another year. The bids
Were opened on the 18th, and out of
eighteen bidders Mr.. Bamberger's
proved the highest.
Visitors to the exposition will remem-
Der these buildings as two of the hand
soonest outside of the large group sur
rounding the lake or what was known
as the White City. They We're located
near each other on the west side of
the transportation building, and while
not so large as the main buildings they
We're more striking in architectural de-
sign.
The dairy building is a very clever
piece Of design and detail in the Ger
man style of architecture. Its dimen-
sions are IS by $50 feet.
The apiary building is in the Swiss
style, and was one of the finest build
ings on the grounds. The roof is prac-
tically all of glass, and the small win
dows characteristic in this class of
buildings gives it a. decidedly odd and
vet artistic aDpearance It is of the
same dimensions as the dairy building.
Mr.. Bamberger stated yesterday that
the work of transporting the struct-
ures to Salt Lake would begin at once.
They are so constructed that they can
easily be taken apart and hauled any
distance without damage. Tt is Mr..
Bamberger's intention to place one on
the little island in the middle of the
Lagoon, and partition it off into dress
ing rooms for bathers, it being his plan
to convert the lake into a bathing re-
sort. The other will be reconstructed
near the present pavilion, and used for
a concert hall.
Chief Engineer Kirk, in his letter to
MIR Ramberger, stated there was
trouble brewing among bidders or. the
large buildings a Chicago syndicate
put N a bid Of S2S7O0 for all the build
ings on the grounds. When the Omaha
people found this they raised their bid
TO s25 200. and the directory declared
the property sold to the latter, who are
DESTROYS of retaining the buildings for
another years show. The Chicago syn
dicate threatened to institute suit, al
leging such proceedings were irregular
and what the outcome will be is unceT-
tain. The final result viii not in any
way affect Mr.. Bambergers bid. how
ever, as beth sides are quite willing

BUILDING COMPANY SUITS.
Answers In Cases of Howells, Ashton
and Mrs. Hendry.

and MIS-. HenQry.
Answers to three suits were filed in
the clerks Office yesterday by the
Pacific States Loan, Savings & Build
ing company to the suits brought by
Thomas F. Howells, 3. w. Ashton and
Mary T. Hendry.
1t appears that the fate Of building
and loan associations in this state
hangs on the result of these cases or
either of them. If the plaintiff wins,
then the loan associations will have to
amend their plans and do business diff
ferently. If defendant wins Of course
matters will stand as they now are.
The case Of HoWellS is a case in
point. He borrowed $1,000 of the de-
PENDANT company, under the terms of
their agreement, which ran along as
such matters do until recently, when
he refused to pay any more, claiming
he had already paid back the original
loan with interest; and following this
brought suit to recover a matter of
something over 500. which he alleged
was due him. In the complaint he sets
up that the contract made by the COM
pany is an unconscionable one; or one
which cannot be kept by both parties
in interest, especially the borrower.
The other two cases are similar except
as to the amounts.
The defense placed an answer to all
three yesterday, alleging, as set out in
the case of Howells, that he has not
yet paid the full amount of the loan
and the interest and is still owing
$6S995 The contention of Howells is
that he has paid $1,995 already.
1t is on these particulars the case will
be determined and the issue will be
determined on the point as to whether
the association can enforce the terms
of the contract

new GOVERNMENT FOR HAWAII
BETWEEN STATEHOOD AND TER
RIToRIAL CONDITIONS.
Representative to Congress Will Be
Given Vote and Local Govern
ment Will Have Extended Powers.

Chicago, Nov ia special to the
Tribune from Washington says: 1t is
probable that the report of the Hawaii
an commission will favor a more liberal
form of government for the islands than
has generally been expected. The men,
bers have favorably considered prop
osition to give the islands a representa-
tive in the house with vote, in when
regard he would rank with the repre-
sentatives. and not with the delegates
from Arizona, New Mexico and Okla
homa, who have the privilege of talk
ing, but not the right Of voting.
The government suggested for the
islands will in all probability be an adj
vance on the present organized terri
tories but OF course will not contem-
plate statehood. Several members of
the commission go to the extent of be-
lieving that Hawaii should have repre-
sentation in the senate, though prob
ably without a vote. This feature, how
ever, may not appear in the report.
The distance of the islands from the
seat of government necessitateS the
granting of more power for local gov
eminent than is given to the present
organized territories, but the governor
and other important officers will, of
course. be appointed in Washington.
Hawaii having come into the Union by
treaty, and not by conquest, there will
be no military government as in the
case OF Puerto Rico and the Philip
pines. but "a civil power will be created
from the start. In a general way the
courts and ordinary machinery of the
federal government will be extended to
the islands without much alteration,
but provision will probably be made
for certain degree of local control OF
taxation and expenditures.
There will be d suffrage based upon
education and property qualifications,
and the members of the commission be
lieve they have evolved q system of
colonial government which will reserve
full power to the president and con-
gress and at the same time prove suffi-
GENTLY elastic to give the governing
classes in the island control of local
Improvements and the direction of colo
NAL affairs.
When the Hawaiian commission left
this country the president instructed
them to keep in mind the possessions
acquired b. the war, and the govern
ment which VIII be recommended for
the Sandwich islands Will serve as a
model for that Of the PHILIPPINES and
Puerto Rico.
