Threatened Raid Into Colorado Is
Not Feared, But Precautions Are
to Be Taken.
Especial to The Herald)

Denver. Aug. 5.-ColoneI McGregor OF
the Ninth cavalry has reported to General
Merriam on the Indian situation in Utah
McGregor was ordered TO make a rigid
investigation into the rumorS that the
restless White River and Uncompahgre
ties were threatening a Colorado inva-
sion and also into the burning of the gov
eminent buildings at Fort Duchesne.
McGregor says he does not anticipate
any trouble from the Indians, but never
theless he recommends strongly to Cen
eral Merriam that an extra troop of cav
airy be sent to the Ute reservation
General Merriam. in compliance. dis
patched Colonel McGregor at once TO Fort
Grant Ariz.. TO prepare a troop of the
Ninth for service at For Duchesne. The
report states that the burning of the
stables of the quartermaSter and of troop
G. at DucheSne was undoubtedly due TO
incendiarism. The Indians at the time Of
the fire were greatly excited and IL re-
quired great efforts of the troops TO keep
them on the reservation. No steps have
been taken to rebuild the stables, but
something in that direction will have to
be done soon to accommodate the troop

THEY WANT MAJOR YOUNG.
Boys Hope He Will Arrive In Time to
Accompany Them Home.
1cr.a.,.o1 q, Tho IIar.1dh

San Francisco, Aug. 5.-In only one
respect do the Utah battery boys fail of
complete happiness. This comes from
the thought that the transport which
is bearing Major Young on mis- home
ward journey may not arrive in time
TO allow of his accompanying the bat
teries on the last stage of their jour
ney.
Now that the day of final mastering
out, Aug. 16. has been definitely settled
upon. and every heart is thrilled with
the thought of once more stepping foot
on the soil of dear old Utah, feeling is
manifestly prevalent that the return
to home cannot be a completely happy
one without the presence of the idol of
the batteries.
Major Young departed from Manila
two weeks after the batteries. and if
the transport makes The trip in sched-
ule time the major viii arrive here be-
fore mastering out day. The boys are
living in hopes, waiting patiently, and
saving up goOd-siZed amount of en-
ergy with which to accord their leader
a hot reception.

Will DANISH THE POLES
AND BURY THE WIRES
Salt Lake Telephone Lines to Be Placed Under
ground at Once
Material For COnduits Has Been Ordered-Change Will
Cover the Business District

The telephone wires of Salt Lakes
business district will go under ground
as rapidly as the work can be done.
The first move has been made. in an
order for portion of the required ma
terial. and the actual transformation
will begin as soon as that material is
on the ground. 1t is expected that a
good part of this change will be ac-
complished before the arrival of cold
weather.
This means to the puGlic the removal
of the unsightly telephone poles and
the network of wires; it means a better
telephone service: it means better
connection and no Interruptions be-
cause of storms. 1t means more beau
tiful streets.
Decreased Fire Risk.
But an advantage to the public that.
in some respects. overshadows ell 9TH
ers. is the fact that the removal of the
overhead wires reduces materially the
danger from fire in the business dis
trict. and may result in a material re-
duction in insurance rates. AS matters
stand at present. it is no unusual thing
for firemen to be forced to cut a large
number of wires in case of fire before
they can get at the burning building.
1t will be readily seen what a very
great advantage the absence of the
telephone wires would be in case of
this kind.
1t means to the Rocky Mountain Tel
ephOne company a great additional ex-
pense at the start, but a great saving
of money in the running expenses of
the system.
Expense of Change.
The chief items of expense 20 the
company will be the large copper
cables to be substituted for the present
wires for the underground conduits
through which these cables will run,
and for the work of tearing up the
streets and putting this network be-
low ground.
The conduits will be made of what
are known as hollow brick" and these
brick are thoroughly vitrified to render

San Francisco, Cal, Aug. 5.-The
men of battery A, Utah artillery,
passed their physical examinations to-
day, preparatory to the muster out,
which will soon be under way. With
slight exception, the volunteers exam

Battery B will go before the examining
board tomorrow. Preside fogs are not
very agreeable to the boys, and several
are doctoring for bad colds.

direction of Park City is evidenced by
the fact that Expert Small, who, it is
understood. represents the same Boston
syndicate that controls the property of
the United States Mining company OF
Bingham, spent several days recently
sampling and examining the Daly-West
mine at Park City. and it is stated that
the property was offered to Mr.. Small

scented, for $1,000, 900, the equivalent of

Mr.. SmalfS sampling of the mine is
said to have been a most thorough one,
and some 200 or 900 samples were car
ried away by the expert, who completed
his work few days ago.
No option has, as yet, been given, and
a prominent stakeholder stated yester-
day morning that it was no sure thing
that a majority of the stockholders
would consent to part with the mine
at that figure.

That the DAILY West should command

it has not paid dividends in the past is
no fault of the mine itself-a fact gen.

the result of some disagreementS be-
