COUNTY WARRANT SUIT.
Trial of Case For Recovery on Con
tested Warrants.

The old suit of F. H. Auerbach &
Brother against Salt Lake county for
recovery of $4,000 and per cent an
nual interest from June 10. 1894. on
warrants issued to the Andrews Furni-
ture company and assigned to plain
tiffs, was on trial again yesterday be-
fore Judge Hiles.
Booth, Lee & Richie and Dickson <
Ellis are counsel for plaintiffs and
County Attorney Putnam represents the
defendant. The testimony of ex-Pro-
bate Judge Blair, ex-Selectmeil Geddes,
Christopherson and Roberts and ex-
County Clerk Meloy was taken, but
nothing was ELECTED from them bearing
particularly upon the defense's plea
that the warrants were void because of
having been tainted with fraud. H. j.
Wallace, Auerbach's confidential agent
and bookkeeper. testified to the nom
redemption of the warrants.
The trial will be resumed today, and
in the event that the county's conten-
tion triumphs. that payment of the
warrants should be resisted because of
the fraud, the county will probably
have to pay a judgment only for the
reasonable value of The furniture repre-
sented by the warrants sued upon.

BLYTHE'S LAST HOPE
Supreme Court Declares He Was
Fairly Convicted.
LAST CASE IS ARGUED
REMINDER OF THE COUNTY
FURNITURE STEAL.
Trial of the Case of Auerbach VS.. the
County For Recovery on a S15, 900
Assigned Warrant-Decree of Di-
vorce Modified In Case of Rogers
VS.. Rogers.

The supreme court yesterday af-
firmed the verdict of the lower court
in the case against John A. Blythe.
convicted last year of the crime of as
sault TO commit rape. The opinion.
delivered by Chief Justice Bartch, finds
no reversible error in the trial record
and Blythe will therefore have to
serve out his sentence of seven years
in the state prison.
The chief ground of the convict's ap-
peal was that the trial court had per-
mitted the victim of the assault to be
sworn as a witness against him, con-
trary to the law providing that chill
dren under 10 years Of age who ap-
pear incapable of receiving just i'm
pressions of the facts respecting which
they are examined or of relating them
truly, cannot be witnesses" From the
record in the case the court found the
little girl a competent witness, whose
testimony was corroborated by other
witnesses, and hence the opinion that
the Judge committed no abuse of dis
erection in permitting her to testify at
the trial.
Another basis for the appeal was that
the court erred in charging the jury
that the defendant, although charged
with the crime of rape, could be con-
victed of assault with intent to COM
NIT the crime alleged. The supreme
justices held that the convict was
benefited rather than harmed by such
a charge and the resulting verdict, and
moreover, it did not constitute a re-
versible error

STRIKE ON THE HEBER BRANCH
MEN OBJECT TO REDUCTION IN

Sixty Laborers Quit Work Because

From S1.75 to $1.5O Per Day.
Especial Correspondence.l

tSpeCidl OOITSSpOQQenCe.J
Heber, Nov. 2.-The first feeling of
dissatisfaction on the Provo canyon
branch Of the Rio Grande Western
railroad became manifest yesterday.
when about sixty OF the men employed
along the line quit work and asked that
their time be given them. The dissat-
isfacgion was brought about through a
reduction in their wages. The company
has been paying the hands at work
bedding ties. etc, s1.75 per day. Yester-
day morning the men were notified that
into effect on Nov. /. By the time the
word reached the men many of them
had Travelled about ten miles and put
in an hour or two of work On hearing
Of the reduction they gave up their
shove.G and started back to Heber on
foot. rather than stand the cut.
About s o'clock the men gathered at
the station and We're given their time.
Mr.. Fitzpatrick. superintendent of con-
struction, regretted seeing such pc
action on the part of the men.
and said: IF the boys have better
places waiting for them they are at
liberty to do as they see fit, but their
going will mean a less of about $1,000
a month TO the town as long as the
work lasts. Their going also means
that the money will go to Provo or
some other town..
Unless the men can get better wages
elsewhere. it is hoped that they will
reconsider the matter If men are en-
gagged from the Provo end of the work.
1t will mean the running of the work
train from the other end of the line.

The only case argued and submitted
in the supreme court yesterday was
that of the university of Utah, petit

the auditor claiming that only such
part of the fund as is necessary to pay
monthly bills contracted for the erec-
ton could be paid out of the appropria-
ton month by month.
This was the last case on the calendar
set down for argument. and after adj
hitting Henry c. Lund to practice at

Monday, Jan. /, 1900. There will be.
however, during the recess period

NO FLOUR EXPORTS.
Outlook For Utah Millers Is Not
ENCOURAGING.

Moses Thatcher, who has just re-
turned from a business trip through the
north, does not take a hopeful view of
the flour business for Utah in the i'm
mediate future. The wheat crop this
year was light and the quality poor, so
that the flour is not up to the grade re-
quired for foreign shipment. Added to
this is the fact that the wheat crop
on the Pacific coast is unusually good
this year, making it that much more
difficult for Utah and Idaho to COM
pete for the Oriental trade.
Notwithstanding this discouraging
condition those deeply interested in the
flour business in this region are quietly
and persistently at work effecting an
organization that will enable them to
get their share of this foreign trade at
our doors when the proper time comes
TO act
