Frank E. Simons. who will in few
days open a large wholesale drug house
here, was at the Kenyon last night. hav-
ing just returned from a trip 10 New
York and the east. His brother Will pc

Il believe that there is big field here
for the drug business, said he last night
There is practically only one house here,
in town of 60.000 persons. with an i'm
mense territory to work on. There Is
Utah Nevada and much of Idaho, which

Spring City will have a new industry
very soon. That is, there is great proba-
bility of such a thing. j. Morgan Johnson.
manager of the Coop. at Spring CITY,
who is at the Cullen. having come here
to purchase goods. said last night a com
pany. with capital of $500. was about
TO be formed to start a flour mill.
"A Mr.. Mahon of New York has been
there for some weeks, endeavoring TO in
terest the people of Spring City. said Mr.
johnson last night LAS a result of his
efforts. a committee, consisting of ]: T.
johnson. Andrew Madsen and Carl Han
sen. was appointed TO solicit subScr1p-
tions. Already 5000 has been subscribed.
and but Sl,O00 more is Wanted to make the
venture a success. -,
There is no doubt that this sum will
be raised and that by nsxt spring the mill
will be in running order.
We grow enough wheat about Spring
City to keep the mill in supplies the year
round. In fact, there is a large amount
of wheat on hand yet, as few farmers
sold their summer crop. They did not
consider the prices high enough"

E. Beck of Chihuahua. Mexico. but for
merly of Spring City. was at the Cullen
hotel last night. Mr.. Beck. who has been
mining and sub-contracting on railroads
in Chihuahua, has just returned to his
home after an absence of nine or ten
years, but he will go to Mexico again.
There rs a large amount of railroad
work being done in Chihuahua. said he.
THE governor, Colonel Margueli Anu
mada is friendly to Americans and has
done everything in his power to ercour-
age the development of the state. There
is now under construction the Chihuahua
& Pacific. running from Chihuahua City
40 miles TO Guerreo, and other pieces of
work. This road connects with the Mex
lean Central at Chihuahua City, which
reaches the Southern Pacific at FL Paso,
Tex.
Most of the large business of the state
is done by Americans with American
money. Nearly all the importing business
is in their hands. AS an instance of
American investment, there is only one
third Mexican capital in the Chihuahua &
Pacific. The people are prosperous, those
who work. and there is a splendid chance
for Americans with energy and money to
get rich.'

C. NJ. Copper. who sells butchers sup
plies for ST. Louis house. declared yes
terday at the Kenyon that the business
had been good throughout the middle
west and in Salt Lake.
But the town has been covered by men
in this line of business said he. Il have
found out that there are six men travel
ing through this territory with the same
line BUSINESS must be good in this state
where it will stand so much work as that.
l hope that it is not reflection on Utah
beef. that the beef is so tough that the
butchers tools wear out quickly.
Il have found out that the butchers in
Salt Lake know the business thoroughly
themselves. They want only the best
supplies and they know what the best
are. The six men who have been travel
ing through here have evidently educated
them"

HOTEL GOSSIP.

ST. Louis viii have an, exposition in
1903 which viii eclipse the Worlds Fair
at Chicago" said NJ. E Jensen at the
knutsford last evening. For the past
six months a quiet movement has been
under way TO raise $l5.000.0 600 and then to
sell $, 900. 600 worth OF bonds. so that there
will be s2o00c.0oo to expend upon the work.
l believe that there has already been rails
ed nearly the total capital stock; that is.
the stock has been subscribed. The re-
mainder will come from two or three rail-
way companies. which have not yet hand
ed in their subscriptions.
When l left there had been no ceci-
sion about the location of the exposition,
but Forest park was the most favored
place. There is quite a feeling in ST.
Louis against using the park for such u
purpose, for its destruction would be the
result
We are going to have a show beside
which the Chicago effort will become in
significant. That cost but $lo.0oO,9O0 and
ours will cost twice that amount. 1t
won't be simply an American exposition.
but will cover the whole world. and We
will have more foreign nations represent
ed than were seen at Chicago"

d. Calm. who is from both Boston and
Seattle. one of the best known travelling
men of the west was at the Kenyon last
evening, having just come from Colorado
He will go on through Utah in a few
days.
The people of Seattle expect a tremen-
dous business next spring. said he last
night. They believe that the travel to
Cape Nome will be larger than that to the
Klondike many times over, and | am GER
tain that their expectations will be met.
All through Colorado and the states where
/ have travelled the inquiry about Cape
Nome has been continued and persistent.
1 believe that just as many persons will
rush there this coming spring as went in
to Dawson and the surrounding country
In addition to that, thousands of klon-
dikers who returned to the United States
after having made a stake will go TO
Cape Nome
The splendid business which is being
done through the west makes il possible
for more men to go TO Nome than went
to Dawson. for there were hard times
when the Klondike boom started"

alleged by the defendants TO Mr. Barnes's first
action that his second suit Is brought upon the

them to that action.

Ter. Of Cary & Whltrdge and by the representa-
tves OF several other law firms who represent
defendants in the first suit to allow the answers
declared erroneous to be amended.

up as separate defence that the defendants ex-
cept a few copartners in the American China
Development Company and that Mr.. Barnes was
entitled only to his share Of the profits He at once
began his second action, in which he sought for ar
accounting OF the copartnership. The defendants
deny that Barnes was ever a member OF the devel.
