Building Notes.


Architect Ware is preparing plans
for 81, 900 worth of improvements to be
made by w. H. Clark, the stock broker,
to his home in the vicinity of Tenth
South and Eleventh East streets. The
architect is also working up plans and
specifications for the state fish hatch
cry to be erected on a site not yet Sc
lected.
Plans and specifications are in course
of preparation by Architect Kletting
for a two-story fire-proof building at
Missoula, Mont, for the Rocky Noun
tain Bell Telephone company and for
another story to the Butte building,
making it similar to the fine structure
of the company in Salt Lake.
The building committee of the Utah
University regents held a meeting yes
terday to further consider the project
of modifying the plans and specifica-
tionS for the four new buildings, so
that they may be erected in whole or
in part without exceeding the limit Of
$3.50, 000. Some progress was made to-
ward the desired end, and it is expect
ed that the contracts for the work will
be awarded to the lowest bidders the
middle of this week.
There is a brisk rivalry between the
Coop. Wagon & Machine company and
the Consolidated Implement company to
see which will have the higher and
better building on State street. The
buildings adjoin and both will be four
stories in height.

Terrible Swede Sues Glen Turyille
For Defamation.
SEQUEL To A JAMBOREE
TURvILLE CHARGED WITH I'M
PERsoNATING THE swEDE.
Alleged That he Gave the Name of
John Lawson When Arrested By
the Police, and Lawson Thinks
Els Reputation Is Damaged S299
Worth.

Glenn Turville. the crack bicycle racer,
who has entertained audiences at the
Salt Palace track, is in serious trouble.
That is it is serious TO the extent of
S299. That is the amount he may have
to pay for impersonating John Lawson
on Sept. IA, when, it is alleged, he was
arrested for disturbing the peace.
Lawson, the 'sFerrible Swede," the
actor bicycle-rider, who has likewise
entertained audiences at the Salt Pal
ace track and flashed upon theatregoers
of Sanpete and Moroni as "Ole Oleson,' -
has begun suit against Turville for de-
famation of character. The complaint
was filed yesterday in Justice Nielsen's
court and the case will be heard next
week. The court will decide, first, il
the reputation of the Terrible Swede''
is worth 1929 and, second, if it has been
injured by Turville to that amount.
1t is claimed that on the night of
Sept. IA, Turville, with three other
young fellows, visited Commercial
street and had quite an exciting time.
When they reached the proper condi-
ton they became hilarious and police
officer marched them to the station.
They had not figured in an arrest and
they were quite shocked 10 find them
selves in view of a jail. To save their
own regulations and also partly as a
joke, two Of the quartette, it is said,
gave the names of John Lawson and
Oscar julius, while the two others gave
purely fictitious names
Now, though there may be many
John Lawsons and many persons
named Oscar julius in Salt Lake, the
plaintiff in this case is quite certain
that he is the John Lawson that Tur-
vile tried to impersonate. There ex-
lists between Turville and Lawson quite
bitter rivalry, SO the Swede could not
see the joke. He could see nothing but
a determined attempt to injure his rep
utation.
But there is another interesting fea-
ture about the case. Lawson'S COM
plant is drawn by two young attor-
news H. G. Tanner and A. A. Duncan.
Tanner has just graduated from the
law school of the Michigan university
at Ann Arbor and he is the young man
who has been considered by Repub-
licans as a fit candidate for police judge
to succeed Judge Timmony, who now
dispenses justice at the city hall. This
is his first case in a real court, so that
it is understood that there will be a
fierce contest when the issue comes to
trial.
The summons in the case was served
upon Turville by Constable Brig West
while Turville was training at the track
yesterday afternoon.

LARGER GAIN IN DEPOSITS.
Actual Increase Greater Than the
Statements Indicate.

In the item in yesterdays Herald
showing the phenomenal increase in
the business of Salt Lake banks as set
forth in the reports of Sept. Z, com
pared with Dec. ! last, It was stated
that the deposits at Mccormick & Co Is
bank on the TIN inst. amounted to
$S,206, 4S1. This sum was arrived at by
footing what appeared to be deposits,
but as a matter of fact the sum of
s726,S40. due from other banks, should
be added, making the total of all de-
posts at the date stated $3,S00,662
This is an increase at MeCornick's of
S126,S40 over Dec. I, of last year. In
the same way S594,1S1 should be added
TO the total increase of deposits for the
eleven out of the fifteen banks report
ing; making the aggregate gain 81, 49,
baS. The banks yet to report will swell
the gain in deposits to quite S3.25O. 900
for the period in comparison. and at the
same ratio of increase. with the Cen
tennial-Eureka's large item not includ-
ed in the reports given, the years gain
in bank deposits ought to reach close
to S., 009, 900.

Conditions HeaIthful and All Tia
Gould Be Desired.
AN INCREASED DEMAND
FREQUENT SALES OF CHOICE
RESIDENCE PROPERTY.
Land Toward and Around the Pro-
posed Union Depot Much Sought
After-New Money From the
Mines Seeks observation-disclosures
of Initiating Prices and Collapse.

The condition of the Salt Lake real
estate market is all that could be de-
sired after the lull OF five or six years
The demand is steady, but not fever
ish, for improved property in the choice
residence districts and for warehouse
sites in the vicinity of the railroad de-
pots. Business property that can be
acquired at snap figures is inquired for
by persons having means to invest and
who are able to improve their pos
sessions by the erection of modern bus
mess blocks. Every few days transact
tions of some magnitude are consum-
mated and many more are in process
of negotiation.
Compared with recent years condi-
tions are changing rapidly and salts
factorily. Formerly there was no in
quiry for real estate, and in many
cases fine property went at sacrifice.
Then houses were empty on every block
and no money for building could be
borrowed on land for more than half
of its value at hard times prices. Now
cheap money is plentiful and what few
mortgages are going on record are on
the basis of higher values. Newcom-
ers are arriving by the score to locate
in Salt Lake. Houses are scarce and
rents are higher. The attractions of
l06 city IuC y.
roads building hither from the east and
the bright prospects for Utah's mining
developments are encouraging to old
timers quite as much as to new set
tiers.
More property is being improved now
than for many months past, and even
with advancing prices for materials
and labor the indications are good for a
season of unparalleled activity in the
h11itHinc- limo nf "a
real estate sales of the last few months
are to persons who have made money
in mining. They buy fine homes or i'm
prove building sites.
A favorable indication for continued
improvement in the tone of the real es-
tate market is the fact that the hun
dreds of thousands of new money
brought from the east for investment
in Utah mines has in great part found
no profitable field for investment in
other than mining. Much of this money
is idle in the banks and cannot be eX-
changed for gilt-edge investment
shares fast enough. AS a consequence,
real estate men reason this capital is
finding its way into real estate pur-
chases, and plenty remains with which
to improve the land bought. Soon the
snaps will be all gone and then prices
will advance.
Without a doubt the real estate
transfers for the year will show double
the value of last years sales. The ma
jority of the sales are of residence lots
and homes on the east side and in the
vicinity of the proposed union passen-
ger depot and along what will yet be
railroad property and warehouse
Streets 1t would not take much to in
fate prices to the boom figures of the
old days, but conservative ones are do
ing all in their power to avert pre-
mature advance in property values and
the possible defeat of chances to real
ize better prices.

passenger rates. From Salt Lake City
to Chicago the fare viii be $3.50 be-
tween Sept so and Oct. Z and to ST.
Louis between the same dates the fare
will be S35. This temporary reduction
is caused by the action of the lines east

ger officials here do not know the cause
of the temporary reduction, of which
they were only notified yesterday.

RAILROAD MAN JAILED.
C. S. Lively Charged With swindling
Porter.

C. S. Lively, railroad man, was
booked on a double charge of drunk
and obtaining money under false pre-
lenses at about half past l o'clock
this morning. 1t is claimed that he got
pretty well jagged and then touched
II. c. Newman, a Pullman porter, for
SIS. The two met in the Cliff House
bar and scraped up an acquaintance.
Lively said that he was broke, and
asked the loan of So It'll tomorrow. -
He offered as security a gold watch.
Newman says he agreed and handed
over the requested cash. The watch,
however, still remained in the possess
sion of Lively. Then the trouble be-
gan. Newman called a patrolman, and
Lively was taken along to the station
He denied receiving IS from Newman.
He had $3.50 and the gold watch in his
