WIZ SING ROBBED IN HIS CABIN
THREE BOYS ARRESTED FOR A
SERIOUS oFFENsE.
Chinese Gardener Claims the Lads
Broke Into His Room Thursday
Night-Boys Swear Innocence.

The alleged escapades of three young
men. sons of respectable parents. have
gotten them into serious trouble. and
unless the boys can prove their inno-
cence of the charge of burglary, they
viii be sent up for term of imprison-
ment- The boys, who win appear in
court today TO plead TO complaints
charging them with having broken
into Chinaman's cabin and at the
point of guns robbed him of $50, are
Tom and Dave Newman and Emmett
Bywater.
Along about Thursday midnight.
Wah Sing. who cultivates Charles Har-
mans garden in the vicinity of North
Temple and Sixth West streets, was
rudely awakened by a mob breaking
down the door and window of his
cabin. In a short half minute, three
boys, with blackened faces, entered,
and with wicked looking guns drawn
demanded his cash. The heather was
scared into a trance, and the boys
ransacked the little room until, il is
alleged, the Chinaman's purse, con-
tanning So. was found in his bed.
The case was put in Deputy Sheriff
Dowse's hands yesterday afternoon,
and in a short time he found a clue
pointing to the two Newman boys and
the Bywater lad. The officer learned
that the boys had been having a good
time earlier in the evening with keg
of beer in a back lot near the China
mans cabin, and he also found that
the boys did not tell the same story, so.
he served the warrants on the sus-
poets. They were taken before Wah
Sing. who partially Identified them as
his assaiiants.
The boys admit having a keg of beer
Thursday night but they claim Ethan
Jeremy, on his wedding night, gave
them 81 to buy the beverage with If
they would quit charivaring him and
be good. They also admit having
thrown rocks at the Chinaman's cabin,
but they positively deny having en-
tered it or having stolen his money.
The elder Newman boy claims he can
prove he was in bed two hours before
the burglary, and the others declare
they were home soon after 10 O'Clock.
Some of the neighbors give the boys a
good name but others say they are
holy terrors.
The fathers of the boys guaranteed
their appearance in court today. and
the culprits were allowed 10 go home TO
receive lecture en- the evils of stay
ing out late at nights

Deceased City Auditors Estate to
Be Administered Upon.
WIDOW NOT MENTIONED
WILL IS WITHOUT DATE AND
NOT WITNESSED.
Trial of Case of Ireland vs. Mackin-
tosh to Collect On An Old Note
Large Judgment Against Gilmsr,
Salisbury & Co. By Default
Cases On Trial In Court.

So precise in everything that he did
in life. it is really strange that George
Swan should leave will that prob
ably can have no standing in court.
The document purporting to be his last
will and testament was filed in the dis
tr1ct court yesterday. 1t is written in
the characteristic, painstaking hand of
the deceased, but it is undated, except
tnat 1t purportS to have been made on
/. the - day of - 1895. A more seri-
Gus omission is that the will has no
subscribing witnesses to its execution.
When the will was drawn and until
last July, Mr.. Swan was a widower, but
he failed to provide for his widow by
codicil or otherwise.
Accompanying the purported will was
petition signed by Douglas A Swan
and Thomas Hull, setting forth the
jurisdictional facts in the case and ask
ing that a day be named for admitting
the will to probate, or. if the court
should determine that it is not valid
testament. that they be authorized to
administer upon the estate according
10 law. Catherine t. Swan, nee Whit
temore, joins in this request. The court
fixed the day of hearing for Nov. 15
King, Burton & King are petitioners
attorneys.
Attention is drawn in the petition to
the fact that the will was made prior
to decedent's marriage last summer,
and the court is asked to pass upon the
question of whether or not the mar
riage operated as a revocation of the
Will if the instrument is declared to be
a validity drawn testament. The petit
tioners state also that no aDte-nuptial
contract between the 6ace tsed and the
widow is known to exist, nor has any
provision been made for her by mar
riage contract.
The estate left by George Swan is
valued at s3.015. consisting of farming
land in Davis county, worth 81 ,631 20,
and bank stock and cash of the value
of S1,SS3. So The will directs that his
gold watch should go to his son, Doug
las A. Swan, and his walking stick to
property is to be converted into cash
and distributed equally among his
children, Douglas A Swan, Margaret
C. Hull. George, Alexander Nj. and
David c. Swan, to the five children of
his deceased daughter Janet /. Jones,
and to the three children of his de-
ceased son, William T. r. Swan. 1t di-
reefs also that Douglas A. Swan and
Thomas C. Hull shall act as executors
of the trust.
While it is not deemed likely that
the will can be admitted to proof, I'M
less the widow and all the heirs con-
sent. ii is understood that they will
reach an agreement by which Mrs.
Swan will receive her portion Of the
estate just as though she had been
made a beneficiary under il or as
though no will existed.

MANY GAMES TO-DAY.
This Will Be a Notable Day On the
Gridiron Field.

New York. Nov 3.-Tomorrew will be
a notable sfone on the gridiron field.
There are several important games to
be played. the chief of which is the
Notwithstanding struggle at Phil
adelphia. This is usually considered
as the first championship game of the
season among the large colleges in the
east. Next in, Importance to the Har-
vard-Pennsylvania game is the Prince
ton-Brown game at,Princeton. Yale and
West Point VIII have a tussler at West
Point
The. outlook for the game at Phila-
delphia is for a Harvard victory. The
Harvard eleven has shown far better
form all the season than Pennsylvania.
In the last ten days, however, Penn
sylvania has taken aneimmense brace,
and many predict that the. struggle will
be a close one.
Both Harvard and Princeton have
beaten West Point by scores respective
ly of Is and % to 0, therefore the score
that Yale VIII run up is of especial in
terest. Brown. it may be remembered
played tie game with the Pennsyl-
vaTlia eleven and gave Harvard hard
fight Princeton is expected, therefore,
to have. her hands full.

SILVER ISSUE is IGNORED
LEFT OUT ENTIRELY IN NEW
DEMOCRATIC ORGAN.
Fight Is Made Exclusively On Trusts
and observation-disclosures of
the Omission.

Chicago, Nov. 3.-The Chronicle to-
morrow will say: The first number of
the Democratic National Bulletin. the
weekly publication of the Democratic
National committee, will appear today
under the auspices of its new editor,
Sam b. Cook. 1t will be chiefly re-
markable for its failure to discuss the
silver question, except in one or two
unimportant paragraphs which were
inserted to justify columns.
The articles which it will contain will
deal altogether with trusts and imper-
ialism, and it is understood to be Mr..
Cooks policy to limit the discussion of
public questions in the Bulletin to these
two issues and matter affecting the ma
tional administration so long as he
performs the duties of editor.
The significant thing in the omission
of silver articles from the Bulletin is
that Mr.. Cook is supposed to be acting
under orders from the chiefs of the
national committee. He said vester-
day. in speaking of his work as editor:
Il will endeavor, in preparing mat
ter for publication in the Bulletin to
represent faithfully the ideas of a ma
jority of the members of the national
committee. The object of the Bulletin
Will be to disseminate ideas on current
questions that are likely TO be features
of the next national campaign"

the Provo canyon line. and who. on ac-
count of reduction of wages going into
effect on the list of the month, quit

pot yesterday nearly all day. The men
say they would submit TO the reduction
in their wages if the company would
give them better hours. They claim
they have been getting in all the way
from eleven TO thirteen hours per day
The work they are doing, they say. is
much harder than the regular section
work If the railway company would
agree the men are willing to put in
eight hours work a day at the reduced
price, s1-50-
Nearly all the business men of the
town ret and talked with the men yes

BIG RAILROAD GAINS
Short Line and Western Show Rec
ord-breaking Returns.
LOOKS LIKE DIVIDENDS
ENORMOUS INCREASE IN THE
TRAFFIC FIGURES.
Short Line Earnings Since July Are
Unprecedented In the History of
the Road-Rio Grande Westerns
Net Earnings For September
Were S15S, 1O1-Heavy Business.

The actual earnings of the two big
intermountain railroads for the month
of September are far in excess of the
corresponding month last year. and the
receipts from the passenger and freight
traffic on the Short Line for the period
beginning July the 1st and ending Sept.
80, are unprecedented in the history of
the road During the summer and fall
all the available rolling stock of both
roads was in constant demand, and
extra tourist and Pullman sleepers were
attached to nearly every east and
westbound train. The freight ship
ments. were so extensive that a car
famine resulted and the warehouses at
all stations were taxed to their utmost.
The shipments of live stock, wool, and
agricultural products to the east has
been too much for the connecting lines
at Omaha, Kansas City, and other COM
mon centres to handle, and a conges-
ton resulted that has not yet been
raised. The amount of business done
is reflected in the auditors reports
which are subjoined.
The actual earnings for the month of
September are S377 1924. The total
expenses, operating and otherwise, for
the same month amounted to S219, 1904:
this deducted from the actual receipts
shows, a net profit of s15S, 10l.67.
The gross estimated earnings for the
month of September are $749. S03.9S. The
earnings for the corresponding month
last year were 1854. 69S.72, indicating an
increase of S95. 105.21.
The gross earnings for the period be-
ginning July l, and ending Sept. 30,
three months. are $2.102, 121.20. The
gross earnings for the corresponding
period last year were 81. SOC, 194.17, indi-
eating an increase of 1926, 521.03 in favor
of July, August and September, 1899.
The heavy traffic still continues and
the outlook for the year is most en-
couraging to the officials and stock
holders.
