SHANNON WEEDS HIS VICTIM
CEREMONY PERFORMED By
JUSTICE soMMER YESTERDAY.
As a Result the Charge Preferred
Against Him Will Probably Not
Be Pushed.

Justice Morris Sommer probably saved
Tho1as A Shannon from a term in the
penitentiary yesterday. That IS, ne per-
formed a marriage ceremony between
COpenraver, who he is charged with nav
ing ruined. Whether or not thatTwlil STOP
further proceedings depends upon County
Attorney Putnam but It Is very hkely
that no farther action will be taken
Mr.. Putnam has made objections to the
marriage ever since Shannon was brought
back That is. he did not want TO com
promise the case by marriage, and he has
seemed determined to push IL TO a con-
clusion. But yesterday afternoon Snan-
non was released from Jail. the Fidelity
Insurance & Casualty company of Balti-
more having furnished a bond OF $50 pc
fore Justice Sommer. the amount peinS
reduced from $1,000. The company mao
been secured by friends and relatives OF
Shannon.
When the prisoner was released he did
not lose any time in arranging for the
haver went to the county clerks office
with Mrs Fife Studebaker. the girl s
mother. and there obtained a Ecense
Shannon gave his age as "a and the giri
at Is With the mothers consent the GER
tificate was issued. They wanted to be
married at the Office by Deputy Clerk
Scare but he had some hesitation about
it and finally refused TO perform the cere-
mony-
About half past the two, along with
Mrs. Studebaker and Mrs. Efhe Carey,
SnannOnS sister. came 10 JUSTICE ooill-
mer's office and asked to be married. IL
was a rather gloomy assemblage which
faced him. and ne was very careful to
become satisfied that the marriage was
proper.
Now. Shannon. are you going to care
for this lady and treat her as you should
if marry you2" asked the justice.
Shannon answered in the affirmative
without hesitation.
Are you willing that your daughter
should marry" he asked of Mrs Stude-
baker.
Almost in tears. she said that she was
willing.
After the ceremony had been performed
the four persons. who had been very
anxious and nervous. heaved a sigh of
relief They kissed all around Mrs.
Carey kissed her brother and then the
bride and the mother. who in turn kissed
her daughter and newly made son-in-law-
None of them cried, but with a little more
strain all of them would have broken
down.
This settlement of the case will likely
stop the prosecution of Shannon. because
his wife cannot be required to testify
against him. and without such evidence
conviction is doubtful

HEARD AND SEEN
IN TIMMONY'S COURT

Robert II. Smith got good start to-
wards giving an imitation of Pat O'Con-
ner cleaning out Ambrosio's saloon on
State street early yesterday morning. but
before he had succeeded a delegation of
staiwart sons of Italy precipitated Bob
into the gutter. There he was discovered
by Officer Burt. cloud of oaths over
hanging the premises from whence he had
come. Bob has been in jail, he says,
more times than he has fingers and feet.
and of course the court is just as familiar
to his vision. Bob remembers Eph Kelly
horse on Bill Nixon's knee. He can emu
merate the various species of animal life
in the palace. upstairs and down. and.
bacchanalianly, can lecture for hours at a
time. He does 1t quite frequently with
the desk sergeant as an audience.
When Bob appeared in court yesterday
he admitted being unlawfully drunk, and
before he could explain the court said
three days. and Jailer Kimball rushed
him right out to rake the yard.

Postmaster Thomas Announces I'M
provements For Salt Lake.
PLAN FOR sUB-STATIONS
ONE TO BE ESTABLISHED NEXT
YEAR.
Two More Carriers and Clerk to Be
Added to Force at Once-Eastern
People Deeply Interested In the
Roberts Case-The Outcome Is
Uncertain.

Postmaster Arthur /. Thomas ar
rived home yesterday morning from his
trip to Washington, D. c., where he at
tended the national convention of first
class postmasters. Mr. Thomas also,
while in Washington, put in some work
before the postoffice department in Sc
curing additional postal facilities for
Salt Lake.
The department has been very kind
to u.s." he said yesterday. we are al
lowed two more carriers, one of whom
will be mounted. We shall also have
one new clerk to be added TO the city
distribution force, and a little later,
after the first Of the year, we shall be
given another clerk
Mr. Thomas said that this indicates a
marked growth in the city, but il indi-
Gates more especially the fact that the
Salt Lake people were demanding bet
ter mail service than they have had in
past years
New Sub-station.
On the subject of the sub-station the
postmaster said: 1.-THE order was is
sued while l was in Washington for
sub-station for the head of Main street,
but because these sub-stations are paid
for out of a special fund and that fund
is exhausted for the present fiscal year,
our sub-station cannot be- secured until
July 1, when the next years appropria-
ton becomes available. | am in receipt
of a letter from the department, how
ever, stating that if any other funds
become available before July l our sub
station will be established at once. At
this sub-Station letters and all other
mail will be received, stamps will be
sold and letters registered; there will
be, in fact, every convenience that is
afforded by the central office, except the
issuance and cashing of money orders.
This will be great convenience to bus
mess men in that part Of town, and
save them many long trips to the post
office. Similar sub-stations will be es-
tablished as soon as possible in the
east, west and south parts of the city
for the convenience of the people"
Interest In Roberts Case.
Mr.. Thomas says it is wonderful the
interest displayed in the Roberts case
all through the east. Just let ii be
known that you are from Utah" he
said, land you are at once besieged by
men and women who want to know all
about the subject
Asked if he thought Roberts would
be deprived of his seat in congress,
Mr.. Thomas said: If I were to judge
by the sentiments 1 heard expressed /
would say yes; but sentiment does not
always rule congress, and person in
Washington at this time has no bet
ter opportunity to predetermine the ac-
ton of congress than well read people
in Utah or anywhere else.

1t is calculated that 100horse power
will be utilized in pumping purposes,
leaving the balance for utilization in
the operation OF an electrical plant,
which will probably be built in connec-
ton with the water system, also for
irrigation purposes.
Estimates have been received on the
cost of the plant. which is placed at an
aggregate of 100000. The water privi-
leges secured by the syndicate form
the result of about two years sparring
for them 1t was only last week that
all the rights were secured. The Eagle
valley waters are the most available
of any, so 1t is stated, anywhere close
to the three districts. so the men who
have made them secure feel that their
acquisition is of great value.
The plan TO supply Stateline, Deer
Lodge and Pixies Diggings with water
will be similar TO the one now in oper-
alton at Mercur by the Gold Belt
Water company, which supplies that
camp with water from Ophir creek.
