the CUBAN SUGAR.
Outlook in That Island
Viewed by Germans.

Louisiana PlantcrD

Views " German officials regarding
the condition OF Cuba as a producer Of
sugar:
1t will be- OF Interest to you to learn
in what light the state and prospects of
things in Cuba are considered In our
official circles. In a recent session OF
the budget committee Of the Reichstag
you would say the committee on ways
land melnsl. the secretary of the Treas
ury said he would not underrate the
danger threatening us from Cuba. but
he did not think IL so alarming a. some
people apparently believe IL to be. The
Island OF Cuba is In a large degree fall
| len back in q state OF unCultivatiOn and
years OF hard work would be required
TO restore It's former productive capac-
| ity. and there Is now great want of
labor. OF the white working men 60
per cent nave emigrated. disappeared
IN some way or other or are dead
whilst the cOlorei population is by the
war demOrdlizeG to the last degree, and
he thinks that 20 replace the lost lab
Oring forces would be extremely diff
cult. On account Of this condition Of
the island ne holds that a rapid re-
vival of production. as is thought like
IS TO come 10 pass by some persons, is
for some years out Of the question,
which opinion mas been confirmed by
different members OF the Reichstag
who are well acquainted with the eco
nomical. industrial and agricultural
conditions and capacities Of Cuba. Per-
sons who perhaps had an interest to do
so, estimated this years crop already
as high as 100000 tons. but from pres
ent appearance IL is by no means Ger
tain that last years figures will be
reached iuasmuch as for the time being
only IS centrals are in operation as
against 80 at the same period last year.
The sugar dealers Of this country
continue complaining Of the increasing
use Of saCChdTine and similar sweet
stuffs, which are now palmed off TO
the general public not only as being
quite inoffsnsive to the human health.
but as the healthiest sweet and the
cheapest article in that line imagin-
able. which unfortunately cannot be
prevented logically. OF course, this Is
much to the discontinue of the fabri-
cants, whose product is subject to a
heavy tax, whilst the competing stuff
goes out scot free. The use that brew
cries used 10 make of saccharine,
sweetsning the beer by means Of II. is.
II Is true. forbidden. but this provision
Is artfully circumvented by breweries
giving a certain quantity Of the article
TO their cart drivers who deliver the
beer kegs TO the saloon keepers. and II
the latter desire to add sacCharire 10
the beer. they are at liberty TO do SO.
as only the industrial use Of it is pros
ecutcd.

Applications for The Membership
Coming 10.
FIVE CREWS TO Be ORGANIZED
Mr.. McStocker Is Awaiting Dove.
iopments In the Meantime
Enthusiasm Is Growing.

Mr.. McS;oCker has been besieged
with applications from people tho wish
to Join the proposed Naval Reserves.
u has created much enthusiasm, and
there is no doubt but that II the Gov
ernnent looks with favor upon the
plan the organization will be success
ful.
Already five well konwn citizens
have volunteered TO raise crews. They
are Marshal Brown. Capt. J. b. Pratt,
A. w. Keech, and Charles Wilcox. Ar
thur Wilder has also spoken about get
ting up crew among the boat club
Boys.
All this is good guarantee that the
project will go ahead. All now that Is
wanted is the official sanction of the
powers at Washington and Honolulu
will form a body OF Naval Reserves
will rival the best.
Mr.. McStocker expects advices upon
the subject in a few days. As stated
oelOTe III lHlS paper hio '''A
sion and Mr.. Castles were forwarded
10 the officials at the same time The
only question is whether or not the
sanction will be received until legis-
sation IL effected for the Islands.
The Naval Reserves has grown more
and more popular during the last few
wears. II has the advantage over the
militia inasmuch that 1t Is closer In
touch with the government than the
National Guard the latter being more
Of a state organization.
During the last war the Naval Re
serves proved that they were made OF
she right kind OF stuff. In the many
engagements in Cuba they were always
IN the front and their courage was
proved infiinching. Where hitherto the
men-of-wars men looked with deri-
sion upon the marines" thew now re-
ceive them on equal terms. The Land
Iubbers" received their baptism Of fire
and proved themselves worthy.
II the proposed local organization
be carried through the members will
BE- on the same footing as their COM
rades in the States. They will leave
for a crui G on one OF the men-of-war
at certain intervals, and will be amen
able to certain regulations similar to-
any other military body. II, as 1t Is
expected, a regular vessel be stationed
here by the United States, 1t will make
things doubly interesting.

CLOSING UP NORTHERN GAP
TELEPHONE LINE TO BUTTE
WILL BE THROUGH SOON.
Service From Denver to the Coast
Via Salt Lake VIII Be Successful
ly Established Next Year.

General Superintendent Murray of the
Rocky Mountain Bell Telephone company
is up in Idaho this week to note when the
new Salt Lake-Butte telephone line will
be completed. There are a few miles of
pole holes to be blasted out of solid lava.
near the Idaho Montana boundary. but it
is believed the connecting wires will have
been strung by the end of next week, when
formal opening of the long distance line
will be celebrated in Salt Lake and at all
points north.
The completion of the line to Butte will
give Salt Lake two outlets by phone to
the Pacific coast, one by way of Spokane
and the other through Huntington. 1t is
not likely, however, that any talking SER
vice with San Francisco, Portland and
the sound country will be encouraged for
another year, because it is necessary to
construct several stretches of inter-town
lines independent of the through wires
When this is done Denver will have been,
connected with Salt Lake. Then the only
gap in a transcontinental telephone syS-
tenn will be between Denver and Omaha.
The telephone business in the mountain
region is growing to enormous proportions
and the Rocky Mountain company is

Charles McGregOr's Lifeless Body
Found In a Basement.
WELL KNOWN CHARACTER
SECTION BOSS ON OREGON SHORT
LINE.
Had Been Drinking Heavily and AL
coholism Was the Cause Of. Death
Tried to Commit Suicide Two
Years Ago-Wife and Children
Reside at Ogden.

Another familiar character to Salt
Lake has been removed by death. He
is Charles MeGregor, who was found
dead in the basement of the Lincoln
House at o'clock yesterday morning.
The proprietor of the house repaired to
the basement to do some work. and
was startled at discovering the lifeiess
body on a stack of extra mattresses
stored away there. Justice McMaster
was called, and as circumstance in
Dictated clearly that death was due to
alcoholism, it is not thought an inquest
will be held. The remains were taken
to Undertaken S. D. Evans establish
ment, where they await the arrival Of
relatives from Ogden.
Charles McGregor was a section boss
on the Oregon Short Line, and it was
his habit to visit the city frequently,
during which visits he drank heavily.
He spoke to Proprietor Paul Helm of the
Lincoln House Monday. after ne had
sobered no, and said Il hope it kills
me if ever drink again" This was
about 4:S0 in the afternoon He was
not seen alive again.
McGregor was known to great many
in Salt Lake. He was about so years
of age, and much of his life has been
unhappy. He separated from his fam
lily number of years ago. his wife and
children still residing at Ogden The
liquor habit was McGregor's one fault.
Otherwise he was genial and charit-
able, and aroused only pity in the
hearts of his fellows. Two years ago
Christmas the unfortunate man tried to
kill himself with poison, and the po-
lice recall that he. was worked with all
day and finally brought out Of the ef-
fects of his rash deed. Since the mid
die of August McGregor has lived at
the Lincoln House, and his familiarity
with the premises accounts for his be-
ing in the basement
The deceased has a brother, James
McGregor. and other relatives living in
Ogden. The brother telephoned last
night that he would be here today to
take charge of the remains.

LOGAN PEOPLE SURPRISED.
Thought Cache Valley Branch Was a
Paying Line.
Especial Correspondence

Especial Correspondence
Logan, Sept. 12.-People here were
astonished, to say the least, at the
statement of General Traffic Manager
Eccles, published in today's Herald.
concerning the attempt to secure lower
rates from here to Salt Lake and re-
turn at conference time. Business men
nave always understood that the Cache
valley branch of the Oregon Short Line
was the best paying one on the sys-
tenn, and the facts certainly warrant
such conclusion. For instance. last
rail- the railroad was utterly unable to
handle the freight traffic on this
branch. Hundreds of tons of beets We're
not harvested, and as many more were
fed to cattle, because cars in which to
transport them to the sugar factory
could not be obtained. The same trouble
was encountered IN the handling of
other products
Loganltes are exasperated over hay-
ing to pay $3.50 in order to go to Salt
Lake and back at conference time.
when, upon the occasion of excursions
they can go to Saltair and return for

Herald were sent down yesterday, to-
gether with a letter fully explaining the
demands of the people here. Other re-
tltlons will be forwarded as soon as thew
are returned from the precincts where
they are being circulated.

sheep are holding their own, although
they are not being shipped as heavily
as they were a short while ago.

football.
PLANS OF z. M. c. A.
Mort Allen Slated For Captaincy of
Eleven

Eleven.
The Y. NJ C. A. football team will
have it's first practice Saturday after
noon, and at that time new captain
will probably be elected TO replace j..
o. Cross, who has for five years past
occupied that position. Mr. Cross du-
ties as principal of the WaSatch school
will prevent his donning the moleSkin
Jacket this year.
Among those who are mentioned for
the vacant captaincy is Mortimer Al
len who for several years, has played
halfback on the team. Allen is a
steady and reliable back and a popular
man with his fellows, and he is almost
certain to be their choice for captain.
Manager Axton has written Ben Will
son, whose work last year with the
Christians contributed SO largely to
their success, and he may come back
from Butte, where he now is, to remain
here during the football season. His
presence behind the line will materially
strengthen the eleven.
No word has yet been received from
the Ogden eleven in answer to the chal-
lenge recently issued for game dur
ing conference week. Ogden is still
playing baseball. and will probably be
somewhat slow in turning to the au
tumn game, as it is new to the junction
city.
Mr.. Shaun, an old Ames college
(Neb.) football man, will coach the I.
NJ. c. A. team this year, ii is announc-
ed. Shaun played on the Ames team
with Ben Wilson of Deadwood fame,
and curves in the game. Owing to a
railroad accident last year, he will
probably not be able to get into the
game, save as coach.

.LINENAN KNOCKED SENSELESS
L H. RHoADEs MEETS WITH A
SERIOUS ACCIDENT.
Was Inspecting New Line From a
Car When His Head Struck
Pole.

I. II. Rhoades. a lineman for the
Rapid Transit Street Car company, is
in a serious condition at Holy Cross
hospital. the result Of an accident at
Z o'clock yesterday morning. Mr..
Rhoades had been stringing a new troll
ley wire down State street during Mon
day night and boarded car %, leaving
First South at Gas a. m. for the Gus
tomary run over the lire to see that
the wire was clear of all others. At
intervals the lineman put his head out
Of the side Of the car to look UP at the
wire, lodging back when he passed the
poles. This happened once too often.
While between Fourth and Fifth South
he looked out and his head came in con-
tact with a pole. The conclusion was
severe, and Rhoades fell back sense
less. He was removed to the hospital.
and DR.. Witeher was summoned.
Rhoades remained unconscious until
after o'clock in the afternoon. He has
a wife and family living at $50 South
Third West.
DR.. Witcher stated last evening that
the injured man viii be around in a
day or two. The shock was severe. but
not so dangerous as was at first sup
posed.
