UP GOES THE PRICE Of FLOUR
UTAH MILLERS DEMAND TEN
PER CENT MORE.
It is Claimed That Advance in Price
Of Wheat For Export Necessitates
the Raise.

Representatives of the various milling
companies throughout the state got to-
gether in Salt Lake yesterday and ad-
vanced the price of -four. High patent
they raised from $3.50 to SL75: straight
grade goes up to $1.E5, a raise of 10
cents per hundred, and bakers No.
viii hereafter sell at S1.35, instead of
S1.25.
The milIers claim they are justified
in making the raise, but there are like
~ to be some pretty vigorous kicks
from the citizen who goes to order his
-four tomorrow. The manufacturers
claim that the action was made neces-
sary by the drought, combined with
the poor wheat crop and the advance
in the cost of wheat east and west.
why, it's a fact" said one dealer,
that farmers can ship Utah wheat to
California for shipment to the Orient
and get cents more for it than they
are getting here. Consequently, the
price of wheat has gone up. 1t costs US
more, and we have got to raise the
price of flour in order to pay their
demands"
The outlook is not encouraging for a
good wheat crop this year, and all the
dry farm product is gone, the dealers
say. What wheat remains, they claim,
is not lit to cut for nay.

Asked If he would do as wei as
Kearns, Loose and Wells were reported
to have done in the way of campaign
Doodle, the mayor said: Il have a lot
of wildcat mining stock that 1 will
turn in if the national committee will
cash it and give me the change"
The selection of Salisbury seemed to
give the Democrats of the city much
satisfaction. The Republicans, many of
whom would not speak for publication.
realized that Mr.. Salishury's election
was a victory for p. H Lannan and
accounted for the presence in Philadel-
phia of Judge G. w. Bartch and John
z. DOoly. They realize, too, that it
means that Lannan and his faction will
have complete control of the federal
patronage should Mckinley succeed
himself.

CHINAMAN is BEATEN.
Set Upon and Nearly Killed by
Gang of Hoodlums.

a Chinese gardener and peddler by
the name of Sing Lee was cruelty
beaten by a gang of west side hood
lums between / and 2 O'Clock this
morning. He was ON his way home,
his house being at 135 North Seventh
West street, when bounced upon by
three of the toughs who have terror
lied that precinct for many years.
They kicked him in the head and in
the face, jumped or him and pelted
him with rocks. while the defenceless
heather cried for help.
Their work would probably have
ended in murder had not the China
man escaped them and ran to officer
Gillespie's home, a half block away. The
gang gave chase, but upon seeing the
officer come out, they turned and fed.
Gillespie took couple of shots at
them, or in their direction, but they
did not stop.
The police were sent for by a man
at the gas WAks. who heard the
shooting. and the patrol wagon bvought
the Chinaman to police headquarters.
Besides having his fare and head cut
and most of his teeth knocked out, two
of his fingers are broken. DE-. King
was called to attend sis injuries Ii
cannot be said at this time whether the
victim is internally injured or not.

FOUGHT WITH POLICEMEN.
oliver Smith, Drunk, Creates Pan
ic in a Street Car.


A drunken fellow who either had
grudge against policemen or was
filled with an irrepressible desire to
hit somebody, turned loose his angry
passions on officers Davies and Sperry
and tried to knock them off their
wheels as they passed him on the
Knutsford corner last night.
The man, whose name is Oliver
Smith, was standing on the street cor
ner and as the officers passed him he
struck a vicious blow at each, but mis-
calculated his distance and failed to
land.
Smith then ran and boarded a street
car. Davies followed him and at
tempted to take him from the car, but
Smith refused to go, and a lively
scuff1e ensued. The officers were
dressed in citizens clothes and the pas
sengers on the car and the bystan6ers
thought that it was a fight, and for a
few minutes excitement ran high. The
passengers vacated the car ana left
Davies and Smith in undisturbed pos
session.
Sperry came to Davies assistance
and Smith turned upon him and made
a furious attempt to disrobe him, but
only succeeded in playing havoc with
his coat.
The unruly Smith was finally con-
qUered and turned over to officer
Roberts, who by this time had appeared
on the scene. Smith was locked up.

Beers Capture Mail.

London, June 24.-AccOrding to a spe-
cial dispatch from Cape Town, it seems
that in the recent fight at Zand river
the Beers captured 1000 mail bags, con-
tanning a three weeks accumulation of
letters for Lord Roberts army and
$4,000 worth of stamps intended for
the use of the troops.
At Kimberley Friday evening DR..
Jameson addressed the electors. He
sketched the position of the Rand at
the time of the raid, emphasizing the
discomfort of the working classes, who
were grooming under grievances and
were ripe for revolt.
He denied that the raid caused racial
troubles, or that it induced the Beers
to arm and hamper the imperial gov
eminent.
According to a Pretoria dispatch,
General Botha possesses full powers to
conclude peace, and it is reiterated
that he is willing to surrender, but it
seems President Kruger remains OBJ
durate.

own existence, and from which she was
