NATIVES STILL FIGHT
More Trouble Is Reported In the
Samoan Islands.

Vancouver, B. G., Aug. 12.-The trou-
bic in the Samoan islands did not END
with the departure of the representa-
tives of the powers from Apia, al
though they confidently thought that
they had restored peace and brought
the rival factions together.
+. 5. Meade, who arrived here on the
Miowera, after a trip through the
the islands of the South Seas, Slys the
two factions We're still at war verv
and that they engaged in a pitched bat
tie. The rival kings took no part, but
the leaders of the parties were engaged.
Several were killed on both sides and
a large humber wounded.
Mr. Meade says he got his informa-
ton from an officer of the German
cruiser Fake, which had been sta
toned at Apia during the recent trou-
bles. The day before he embarked on
the MiOwera at Suva, Fiji, he visited
the old capital of the islands, a few
Fake, which he boarded to meet a
personal friend, the officer from whom
he received the information.
The officers on the Fake either knew
very little about the fight or had re-
ceived instructions to withhold the
particulars, as they appeared to be very
reticent. The representatives of the
powers at Apia. Mr.. Meade learned,
had ordered the natives to give up
their arms, but they were very reluc-
tant about doing so.
After conversing with the German
officers, Mr. Meade concluded that
there was still difference between the

Chief Engineer West Says Road Is

Joseph West, chief engineer of the
Utah e Pacific, denied yesterday the
story that the company intended build

not been thought of at all. If anything
is to be put there, it will be n turntable,

DEPOT FOR KAYSVILLE.
Short Line Contemplates Erecting a
New Building.
Especial Correspondence)


Kaysville, Aug. 2.-There is no longer
doubt that Kaysville is to be provided
with a new Oregon Short Line depot.
The order has gone forth, it is said.
that the. old building will be replaced
by a building that will be in keeping
with the requirements of the patrons
liof the road at this point.
Superintendent J. II. Young came up
on special on Thursday to look over
the ground and confer with certain per-
sons concerning the matter of acquir-
ing possession of the ground necessary
for the building site. He was inclined
to favor a change in the present loca
ton of the depot and selected a spot
one block south of the present site.
There was one obstacle in the way
of deciding upon the new location, and
that was the fact that the city streets
that would lead to the new depot have
never been opened to the public, though
they are plated. Mr.. Young requested
Mayor Barnes to take up the matter
of opening these streets with the city
council. This he did and at a special
meeting yesterday the council passed
a resolution declaring open First and
Second streets from Locust to Maple,
and Maple street from First to Third.
This will allow two ways of reaching
the depot from up town.
1t is understood that the railroad
people are ready now to commence
work, and if the present plans carry
the buildings will be well under way
by Sept. 1. In case the depot location
is changed, 1t is probable that the side
tracks will remain where they are. A
house track for loading and unloading
freight may be put in at the depot.

VIEW OF SOCIALIST ORGANIZER
T. A. HICKEY.
Says Senator Cannon Produced Evil

gressmen Are Polygamists.

| T. A. Hickey, national organizer of
the Socialist Labor party of the United
States, registered for bed at the Ken
yon last night. He states that his party
! has strong organizations in thirty-one
states, and expects to perfect itself in
| the balance of the states and terrific
ries. He claims 100000 votes. and says
| his party will always nominate sepa-
rate candidates for president and vice
president. and always promulgate its
own individual platform.
Il am here to organize, if possible, a
local lodge of our party, and 1 think l
shall be thoroughly successful. We
certainly believe in holding on to what
we have obtained, but still we have
many differences as between the two
dominant parties. We are not Popu-
listic, but we do not agree on general
principles with the platforms that
either party has as yet set forth. We
expect ere the next campaign TO have
an organization III every state and ter
ritory, and to eventually swing the bal

proof that cannot be gainsaid that SEN

Bridges to Be Rebuilt and New Rails
Laid.

Evanston, Wyo.. Aug. 1.-THE Union
Pacific is getting ready to make some
extensive improvements in its line be-
tween this place and Ogden. The first
work will be the replacing of twelve
steel and wooden bridges with new
steel. These bridges viii be larger and
stronger and will be constructed upon
the most modern plans and of the best
material obtainable. The building of
these new and stronger steel bridges is
necesSitated by the recent purchase of
eight twelve-wheel locomotives for
service between this city and Ogden.
The company thought il best to
strengthen the bridges on this district
before bringing the monster freight en-
gines here from Cheyenne, where they
are now in service between that city
and Sydney. Neb. ra5
In addition to the new bridges the
road will be relaid in many places with
heavier steel rails. and sidetr2cks and
station property will be improved.
