SERVICES FOR JUDGE STAYNER
LAST RITES WILL BE CON-
QUOTED TODAY.
Bishop o. F. Whitney Will Be In
Charge of the Ceremonies, Which
Are to Occur In Bountiful.

Funeral services for Judge c. w.
Stayner will be held in Bountiful at
his late residence this afternoon at
o'clock. The interment will also occur
in Bountiful. The many friends of the
dead man will doubtless turn out in
force to pay last tribute of respect
to his memory. Bishop o. T. Whitney
will be in charge of the ceremonies.
Judge Stayner passed away early
Tuesday morning, his demise being
quite sudden. He was at his office last
Friday and complained that he had
caught a severe cold. He went home
early and became worse. A physician
was summoned but Judge Stayner
gradually sunk until the end came as
stated. News of his death caused a
great shock to his friends and ac-
quaintances, many of whom did not
learn of his illness until they were in
formed that he had passed away.
The dead man was the brother of
Arthur Stayner who died about four
months ago. He came here from
London many years ago. Except for
period of time when he was abroad
doing missionary work and later when
he resided for a brief period in Wash
ington as a land attorney, he lived
continuously in Utah. At the time Of
his death Judge Stayner was the hol-
der of interests in many business en-
terpriSeS.

turned today from a visit to Havana
Matanzas and other points in Cuba,

to carry out the policy of the president,
have been received with universal ia
vor. The veterans of the revolution
and all elements, even those supposed
to be most at unrest, are deeply graft
fed by the programme enunciated by
General Wood-the reform of the courts
so as to give speedy trials, the clearing
of the prisons of those who have been
ianguishing under the slow procedure
the establishment of a system of FREQ
schools and the construction of roads
with view to local necessities. These
purposes have met with universal ap-
proval from the Cubans."

WILL OPEN HEMP PORTS.
Mr.. Meikeljohn Outlines Govern
ment's Policy Toward PHILIPPINES.

Mr.. Me1kelJohn Outlines Govern
ment's Policy Toward Philippines.
Washington. Dec. 2S.-Assi5tant Sec
rotary Meikeliohn of the war depart
ment has written a letter to Represent
alive Long of Kansas. defining the pol
icy of the department regarding the
commerce OF the Philippines. with spe-
cial reference to the opening of ports
for the expectation Of hemp. Mr.. Long
had transmitted a letter of constit-
uent, stating that there is SO little
hemp in the country now that the price
was Ii to Is cents pound, as against
a normal price of or cents, while
only 1000 bales a week have been
shipped to this country since the war
began, instead of $4,000 bales per week.
ds formerly.
Promising his explanation with the
statement that General Otis has been
instructed to open the hemp DTS as
soon as he had proper garriSons, wnlch
should be early in January, Mr.. Melk-
eljohn goes on to show that the cor
respondent has an erroneous idea as TO
the effect of the war on the hemp snip
ments. He says the largest hemp ex-
portation from the islands in any one
year was in 1897, when exports aver
aged II, 300 bales per month. During
the ten months of 1899 the imports or
hemp into the United States amounted
to 46,475 tors, which shows, he adds,
that there never has been a year when
so much entered the United States as
in this year, while its value has been
SAL per ton lees than in 1889 or 1921.
Mr. Meikeljohn indicates that the cor
respondent picked out certain years or
agricultural depression in the wheat
states as the basis of his exceedingly
low quotations of past prices of hemp.
He declares the communications re-
ceived by the department from manu-
facturers and brokers indicate there IS
no trust or combine controlling the
hemp market, as feared by farmers
and he concluded his letter as follows:
The war department is doing every
thing compatible with the require
ments of the military situation to de-
velop the trade of the islands. and IS.
confident the so-called hemp ports
will be open to trade in ample lime 1or
any accumulation of hemp therein con-
tanned to reach this country, and be
manufactured before the next wheat
harvest. Inasmuch as the combination
of low freight rates and high prices OF
fibre will tend to bring the shipments
by steamer in lieu of sailing vesseis,
they require only three months for the
tr;p. and an additional month will sur
fee to place the article in the hanas
of farmers Shipments leaving Mania
in March would be available Tor the
harvests in Iowa, Nebraska and other
western states.

BUFFALO BILL" PROTESTS.
Inability to Secure Indians Will Ruin
His Business.

Washington. Dec. 2S.-Since the recent
announcement of the new policy of the in
terror department discountenancing wild
Indian exhibitions, the department has
been deluged with both written and oral
inquiries Colonel w. F. Cody has pro-
tested that the action will nearly ruin his
business. He sent a representative here,
who urged Commissioner of Indian At
fairs Jones TO make an exception in his
case. A large number of letters on the
subject. mostly indorsing the depart
melt's attitude, have come by mail
Commissioners Jones said there would be
no change in the department policy. and
that he was convinced the exhibitions
have a demoraiizing tendency and retard
Indian progress. 1t is recognized, how
ever, that falling the government con-
sent Indians may be contracted with and
hibited without the present fornality of
securing official action.
