Fish Unable TO Live In Utah's Great

DECISION OF THE UNITED
STATES COMMISSION.
Find Food Supply to Be Abundant,
But Animal Life Cannot Be Sus-
tanned and it Would Be Waste of
Time and Money to Make the At
tempt.
Especial to The Rerald.l

Washington, Dec. 29.-The United
States fish commission recently COM
pleted an inquiry into the feasibility
of introducing useful marine animals
into the waters of Great Salt Lake,
with the result that it is believed that
such introduction would be an utter
waste of time and money. The objec-
tions to the planting of fish. oysters
and other sea animals in Great salt
Lake, based on physical, rather than
biological conditions. Professor Moore
<eays in his report the water teens with
shrinps and insect larvae, so there is
abundant food supply. In fact, the
available fish food exceeds in quantity
that usually found in the sea, its album
dance being largely due. no doubt, it is
said. to the fact that there are no fish
TO consume it.
The lake is also exceedingly rich in
minute plants, which constitute the
chief food of the oyster, but from a
practical point of view this fact has
no value when the physical conditions
IF the waters of the lake do not permit
the continuance OF the animal life if
introduced.

Experiment Was Made.

: Professor Moore is convinced from
mis- examination that neither self-sus
tanning beds replenished by their own
reproductive activity, nor those main
tanned by annual importatioTs from the
coast. as practiced by the planters in
San Francisco bay, can be introduced
in Great Salt Lake with any degree of
commercial success.
A partial experiment with fishes was
made with a small quantity of Salt
Lake water shipped to Washington
through the kindness of a correspond
e4lt The quantity was too small for a
conclusive trial, but so far as it went
TIE result was unfavorable, the fish
showing distress after a short stay in
the water, and dying within two days
of the time of their intro duction.
There is much greater probability of
attaining results by introducing catfish
into the fresh sloughs near the mouths
of the rivers than by attempting the
introduction of marine species into the
lake.

to discuss it now. Reference is made to
Secretary Alger as making trusts one
of the issues Of the senatorial con-
test, and as making stock of letter
from me in which 1 upheld judicious
combinations among the industries
Il admit that quite a while ago L
did write such letter to one of the
senators, and used such an expression,
but 1 sid not mean combinations as a
trust in the general acceptance of the
term. 1 believe a combination of indus
tries good thing, which has already been
proved by the fact that wages have
gone up greatly since the combinations
have been formed. The prices of ma
terial have advanced and the general
condition of the country is much i'm
proved. Through these the incorpora-
tors will reap large dividends later on.
When. L speak of combinations" he
repeated. Il don't apply it in the nature
of trust. But 1 don't care to enter
upon any controversy now. l have two
years yet to serve- and later on 1 will
see what 1 can do" Senator Mcmillan

1882 delegates IN the convention are di-
vided so nearly evenly that there is not
a difference of thirty votes in the
strength of the three candidates-Stone,
Goebel and Hardin. But of these Goebel
is the strongest because of the solidity
of his support. He controls his follow
irg absolutely and can vote them for
himself or throw them to either of his
opponents at will. Neither Stone nor
Hardin can do this and for that reason
neither is in a position to make ad-

say General Alger Will see the propriety

his campaign, and many believe he
would strengthen himself by retiring at
once. 1t is not believed. however, that
he will retire for some time to come.
The announcement of General Ayers
candidacy was n little premature, owing
to the intpulsiveness of Governor Pin
gree. 1t can he stated with the utmost
positiveness- that the administration will
be entirely neutral in the Michigan
senatorial contest.

an absence of three weeks. To callers

thoroughly out of patience, struck a
Cuban in the face. The latter demanded
a duel, but the officer laughed at him.

One speaker, a Cuban officer, said Cen

course in giving politicians government
positions, while military men were get

clared, will eventually lead to trouble.

shown on the first ballot, when after
William Goebel had to his credit within
less than a score of enough votes to
give him the nomination there was
spontaneous outburst of Hardin enthu-
siasm which lasted for half an hour and
came very nearly developing into a

votes on the first roll call, had upward
of 500 when the vote was announced.
Eleven Ballots without Change.
This strength he retained during the
early evening, increasing it on the sixth
ballot to 371, or within eleven votes of
Stone. There was a decided drift in
favor Of Goebel early in the voting, but
it was checked by the Stone people
throwing enough strength to Hardin to
even matters up. This was significant
in showing the inner workings of the
Stone-Goebel combination, and the evil
dent purpose of the Stone men to pre-
vent Goebel getting the long end of the
barSain-at least until Stone had had a
fair test of his strength. Succeeding
ballots up to the eleventh showed
scarcely any change. 1t is anybody's
