UTAH HAS BUT
ONE SENATOR

Salt Lake. March "a large crowd
assembled at the legislative hall tonight
to witness the closing of a senatorial
campaign that has extended throughout
the entire length of the session, in which
A. w. McCune has been in the lead the
greater part of the time until today. The
entry of Hon. George @. Cannon in the
contest yesterday was the sensation of
the day and on the balloting tonight,
when he run up ahead of McCune, the
prediction seemed to be general that he
would finally be elected.
The balloting tonight was exciting and
numerous speeches We're made in the in
terests of the several candidates. c. G.
Richards of Ogden was taken up by the
King forces, augmented by some scat
tering additions, and received a ~flatter-
ing vote on several ballots. His name
finally dropped out of the list and 20 votes
went to James H. Moyle. After this
there was a general scattering of forces
and at midnight President Nebeker de-
clared the joint assembly adjourned with
out the election Of a senator Frank j.
Cannon remained in the race to the last.
with nearly all Of his original followers.
The McCune supporters tonight are
claiming that they scored a partial vic
tory by the defeat of Frank J.. Cannon
and McCune's friends have nominated
him in advance for the senatorship two
years hence. The republicans are jubi-
liant over the fact that on account of the
party d~issensions a legislature over
whelmingly democratic has failed to elect
a United States senator
Ten ballots were taken tonight. The
sixteenth and last ballot was as follows:
McCune, 20; George @. Cannon, 10: F. J.
Cannon, 7; King, 4; J.. H. Moyle, 4; Pow
ers, 4; Nebeker, /; Sutherland, 2; alb

NARROW ESCAPE
FOR MANY PEOPLE

Chicago, March 9.-Fffty people mar
rowly escaped death tonight in an acct
dent to a Halstead street electric car at
the North Halstead street bridge. APP
preaching the bridge at a rapid rate OF
speed, the motorman of the car failed to
notice that the bridge was open. When
within a few feet of the river he suddenly
discovered the danger and put on the
brakes, at the same time endeavoring to
reverse the electric current. In spite OF
his effort the front part of the car ran
down upon the abutments CT the bridge
and hung there. One foot further and 1t
would have plunged into the river, 80
feet below, and, as it was damned with
the loss of life must have
been frightful.
The motorman, thinking that the car
was doomed, warned the passengers ana
then jumped INTO the river. The tipping
of the car on the abutment, accompanied
by the motorman'S warning, caused a
panic among the passengers n they
made a wild stampede for the doors,
During the rush for safety four of the
passengers We're injured. They are: AL
bert Ross, ankle sprained; Mrs. Mary
Farnsworth, Frustrated by fright; Chas,
| Richter, ankle sprained; Minnie OHOul
han, cut by falling glass from the Win
dows of the car. The motorman after
jumping into the river managed to clutter
some piles and keep his head above
water until he was dragged out.

STANDING
OF CADETS
Who We're Assigned to Duty
During the War.
A MISTAKE HAS BEEN MADE
By Congress in Its Passage of the
Naval Personnel Biil--The
Two Year Sea Cruise
A MISTAKE HAS BEEN MADE

New York, March 10.-A dispatch to
evident from the nature of inquiries
reaching Washington that there is some
misunderstanding about the fate of those
naval cadets who sought, with the assls-
lance of friends in congress-. to obtain
commissions Immediately after their
course in the academy expired without
requiring the customary two years
cruise.
Senator Lindsay made an effort to Sc
cure a change in the cadet system, by dis
pensirg with the Two years cruise at
the end of the academic course, but he
met with stout opposition. The senate
afterWard decided TO shorten the course,
n conformity with the recommendations
made by many successive Superinten-
dents and boards of visitors, the argu-
ment being that it was useless to require
two years of service during which the ca
Diet was neither one thing nor another,
but just a ~despised and rudely treated
pin feather officer. When the bill for the
reorganization of the personnel got into
conference, the senate provision for
shortening the cruise, although it was
desired by officers of the navy, who IA
vOred the bill, some of them considering
it the key of the whole system, assuring
a sufficient supply of officers to fill up the
lower grades, the senate receded from the
house and struck out the provision that 1t
inserted permitting cadets to receive
their commissions at the end of four
years instead of six.
The result will be that the cadets who
last summer went into service with the
expectation that they would receive
their commissions. will have to serve an
other year aboard ship, then go back tC
Annapolis to be examined and if found
fit, be commissioned ensigns. There is
so much regret over the outcome of the
personnel that an effort will be made a
the next session to correct what is con
sidered as a blunder

GEN, MARCUS MILLER
WILL BE RETIRED

Washington. March "a change in
command of the United States forces at
Iloilo will occur on March q, resulting
in the retiring of Gen. Marcus Miller,
who, IN hat day, reaches the 6 limit
of Ga years. Gen. Miller is in the regular
service, having been promoted only re-
Gently to the rank of b%rigadier general.
If he were in the volunteer service his re-
tirement would not be compulsory, a
precedent to the contrary having been
established in the case of several officers
who held commands during the Spanish
war. Gen. Miller's service in the Philip
pines has been recognized by the ward e.
partment as of great value, his capture of
Iloilo without loss to the American forces
having marked an important epoch in the
operations in the islands. His compul-
sorry retirement is a matter of regret to
the department. He will be succeeded in
the natural order Of promotion by Col.
Thomas M. Anderson, who now ranks as
a b~rigadier general of volunteers.

CONVICT CAPTURED.
Trustees TruSty John Downing Taken
NearsSJefersOn.
Constable Hudelscn and Posse Deliver
Their Man and Get the
Reward.

John Downing, the trusty convict Of
the Oregon State Penitentiary who ran
away Friday, was captured near Jeffer-
son Sunday afternoon and delivered at
the prison at 10 o'clock Monday.
The capture was effected by City
Marshal w. A. Hudelson and a posse
and the warrant for 800 offered az re-
ward was made out 10 him, but will
probably be divided between several
who assisted in the capture
Downing was first seen by Frank
Looney about halfway between the JEFF
ierson and Green bridges. lie had got
rid Of his prison suit and wore an old
ragged suit that was a pretty complete
disguise. But for the close description
given Of him in the circular Of the prison
officials and printed in this paper it is
not likely he would have been recog-
nized. Marshal Hudelson started after
the convict on a bicycle heavily armed
and soon had the man under arrest.
He offered very little resistance and
was brought TO town in buggy by w.
+. Jones, s,who with Looney and Hudle-
son shared in the honor of the capture.
HOW HE ELOPED.
Downing escaped July 2Sth. lie had
been Employed that day working in the
bayfield,, although he was one of the
road gang. lie got away by telling the
driver of the hay wagon that he had
left hisfork in the field and wanted togo
after it, and meet the driver at the gate
He Immediately took The road. Supt,
Lee sent messages 10 a complete circuit
Of all the surrounding towns and would
have been almost impossible for him
10 get away. The jefferson boys de-
serve credit for their clever capture and
Downing will lose all credit he had at
the prison, will now have to serve his
full term and get some severe pun ish
ment besides.
