TELEPHONE ORDINANCE.
Franchise Rejected By the Bell Com
pany Is Again Granted.

At the meeting of the city council
last night, the telephone question again
came I'D, the committee on laws recon-
mending the rejection of the re-
quest of the Bell Telephone company
for a franchise, in accordance with an
ordinance proposed by the company.
In lieu of this the committee proposed
a franchise identical in its provisions
with the one granted the local company
some months ago. The recommended
lions were adopted, and the ordinance
passed.
The matter is thought TO be of little
consequence, as the company has pre-
viously rejected a similar franchise.
The same committee recommended
the passage of the estray ordinance as
amended.
Bills aggregating $3.50 were allowed.

CASE OF SUICIDE OR MURDER
FRENCH SHEEPHERDER FOUND
DEAD IN HIS CABIN.
Room Indicated Struggle, But the
Man Had Appeared Demented-
Letters Were In French.


AT an early hour yesterday morning
Joseph Escallier, a sheepherder. COM
United suicide or was murdered in a
cabin about sever miles east Of Hunts
Vile His throat was cut with a
pocket knife and he bled to death on
the floor of the cabin. The body was
round yesterday morning by n. Jen-
sen OF Huntsville, who had gone TO
the ranch to bring down a drove Of
sheep. Jensen brought the body 20
huntsville and notified the authori-
ties.
Escaliier was in the employ Of
Moroni Marriott, q Logan sheep man,
and was in charge of the latter's sheep
ranch. For some time past Escallier
had been showing signs of dementia
and had been acting strangely. About
week ago he killed a valuable sheen
dog belonging to Marriott by cutting
Its throat and a day or two ago killed
another. Marriott decided to dispense
with the mans services and had sent
Jensen to the ranch to take his place
and bring down the sheep.
The cabin presented a horrible ap-
pearance when Jensen pushed open the
door. The body was lying a few feet
from the bed, which was covered with
blood. The bed clothing was thrown
about the room and torn in shreds. as
though the man had struggled Violent
ly. A bloody pocket knife lying near
the door indicated the manner of his
death. Some one had driven the blade
into the right side of the neck just
above the collar bone making a horr1-
bic cash in the throat.
Nothing has been learned as yet re-
garding EScallier. further than that
he came to Ogden about two months
ago and subsequently went to work
for Moroni Marriott at Huntsville. A
letter written in French, found on his
person, indicates that he has a sister
living at Bakersfield, Cal. A receipt
for a certificate of deposit from the
Ogden State bank was also found.
EscalIier had called at the State bank
some days ago and presented a GER
tificate of deposit on the bank of
Bakersfield Tor $1,000. The bank took
the certificate for collection and gave
Escallier the receipt therefor. The
bank then forwarded the certificate to
the bank of Bakersfield but nothing
has as yet been heard from il.
An inquest was held over the body
of the deceased at Huntsville yester-
day, the verdict OF the jury being that
he had come to his death by reason of
a knife wound inflicted by his own
hand, while in a fit of temporary in
sanity.
Word was sent to the dead mans sis
ter at Bakersfield, Cal, by Coroner
Peterson, and last night the reply
came: Bury him.
