The first round in the litigation be-
tween the representatives of the Utah
Federation Of Labor and the regents of
the state university was decided yes
terday by Judge Hiles in favor of the
defendants The regents demurrer to
the plaintiffs petition for an order re-
straining the board from contracting
with w. H. Roney for the erection of
all three university buildings on lump
bid to the exclusion Of Grundfor & At
knson, local bidders, who proposed to
erect one of the buildings for less
money, was held by the court to be
good, and ten days were allowed in
which TO amend the complaint.
Case to Be Fought to a Finish.
The court having promptly decided
one phase of the question the labor rep
resentatfves, by their attorney, James
H. Moyle, will lose no time in taking a
new tack. and on Monday or Tuesday
an amended complaint will be filed.
The regents are ready to meet any is
sue and will waive time for contestine
every point advanced by the opposition.
1t promises TO be q sEubbornly fought
case and without doubt the supreme
court viii be called upon to adjudicate
the question of the right of the regents
10 contract with RoneY. In order that
work may not be unnecessarily delayed
on the university buildings. both sides
10 the controversy will rush the series
OF court proceedings to the end.
Decision of the Court.
In passing upon the case Judge Hiles
yesterday held that the question Of
non oinder of parties to the suit was
not material (Grundfor & Atkinson be-
ing the real parties in INTEREST,", but
that the question Of whether the Fed
GRAFTON of Labor has the legal capacity
to sue cannot be determined by a gen.
eqal demurrer.
The demurrer was sustained because,
as stated on the race of the complaint
the board of regents adopted as the
standard for measuring the lowest re-
spOnsible bid the lowest aggregate bid
on the three buildings, and Roney's bid
was lower than Grundfor & Atkinsons
on the three buildings by $709, although
Grundfor & Atkinson We're 1861 lower
for the physical science building.
No Charge of Fraud.
In conclusion the court stated that
no allegation of fraud had been made
nor that the regents had acted in bad
faith. and that any charge of bidders
having been misled by the invitation
for proposals was lacking in the record.
The court, therefore, allowed the re-
gents answer to stand and overruiei
plaintiffs demurrer, but granted ten
days in which to amend the complaint
II was stated last evening by coun-
sci for Thomas Morris ct al, repre-
seuting the labor federation, that the
complaint would be amended immedi-
ately to show that local bidders We're
misled into putting in separate bids for
each of the three buildings, while
BoDey got inside information, the same
as Grundfor & Atkinson had received,
that only the lowest aggregate proposal
would be accepted.

The report was circulated yesterday
that a deal had been closed by which
the u. c. NJ. L. had secured what is
known as the Eagle foundry property
10x12 rods, adjoining the Oregon Short
Line freight depot on First South
street; that it was intended for ware
house purposes and that the price paid
was ST., 900.
Thomas G.. Weber, the superintend-
ent of the q. c. NJ. l.. said last night

the property described above or any
other; that negotiations were in prog
ress for the purchase of a warehouse
site, but that three different pieces of
ground were under consideration and
no selection has yet been made
Mr.. Weber said further that changed
business conditions made a warehouse
on the railroad tracks necessary. The
expense of hauling the goods by wagon
and the delay We're factors that every

English Visitor Formed Acquaint-
ance of Nice Gentlemen.
INTRODUCED TO POKER
AND THE VISITORS WEALTH
TOOK WINGS.
Mr.. shudle Lost 1920 and Went to
the Bank to Get the Money
Wanted the Bunco Men to Take
Some Old Coins-Grafters Left
Town.

There is an Englishman in town who
played a little game of draw poker
yesterday afternoon with three conf
dence men, and lost 1920, of which $50
was in cash and SEQ was represented
by his word. The surething men Sc
cured the $50, but they didn't get the
$500.
u. Shudle, who is an expert book
keeper by profession, a tall, gaunt Eng
lishman, who wears distinguishing
Dundreary whiskers, arrived at the
Kenyon hotel Oct 10. He remained
there until Friday, when he went to
another hotel. He is, or was on his way
to San Francisco. But yesterday morn
ing he met Charley Price, one of the
shrewdest, smoothest and most accom-
plished ''grafters" in the country. Price
had come here Friday morning, along
with "Sheeny" Cohen and Harry Doyle
from the Pacific coast. They stayed
over just long enough to learn that the
police department does not tolerate
them in Salt Lake.
Met the Grafters.
Price took Mr. Shudle to a room in a
building on lower Main street, preSum-
ably the room of one of the grafters.
He introduced him to Cohen and Doyle.
After some conversation on business
matters and the Transvaal war, the
four engaged in a game of draw poker.
Mr.. Shudle lost $50 in cash, all the
money he had with him, and his word
was taken for 5000 more. He supposed
that he lost the money in a square
game, but he didn't. Price accompanied
him to the Wells, Fargo & Co. bank.
On the way up Shudle admitted that
he had but 500 on deposit, but said
he had a draft in his room. He want
ed to know if Price wouldn't accept
some old and valuable coins in place
of the 500, but he had no use for any
thing except ready money"
AS the money was being withdrawn
from the bank Mr.. Dolly asked why he
wanted the money.
"Oh. 1 lost 5000 in a little poker
game" said he.
flight of the Grafters.
Ex-Chief Pratt was there. He and
Mr.. Dolly were discussing ways and
means of electing Ezra Thompson
mayor. The eX-chief became convinced
that Shudle had been robbed. He at
once notified Chief Hilton. Detective
Sheets and Sergeant Janney com
menced a search for the 'grafters +"
They worked hard and quietly all the
afternoon, and finally, as they had their
men located in q. Second South street
saloon, the birds flew away. Having
learned that Sheets and Janney knew
them, they jumped out the back way,
took a hack and drove to the depot,
where they caught the Oregon Short
Line train north.

Ash Must Keep His Smoke and Con-
nelly His Rain Water.

The somewhat celebrated neighbor-
hood quarrel between Thomas Ash and
John Connolly, residents of First street
east Of NJ, was adjudicated yesterday
by Judge Hiles as best he could, after
reconciling the conflicting evidence
submitted in the case a week ago. The
courts findings and decree, stripped of
all legal verbiage, declares that Mr..
Connolly shall keep his own rain water,
that Mr.. Ash shall shoot his smoke
away from Connellys house and that
each party to the suit shall pay his own
costs.
In legal phraseology Judge Hiles de-
creed that Connolly, the defendant.
shall be perpetually restrainapl from
permitting the storm water from his
house running into Ash's cellar ard
that Ash the plaintiff, shall forever
maintain his crimney SO that the smoke
therefrom shall not enter the Connolly
