Session Lasted Sixty three Days-3s2 Bills
Acted Upon.
At midnight Sunday night the fourth
session of the Utah state legislature
came 10 an end. The house adjourned
at $50 o'clock, but the senate was de-
layed by a dispute over the governors
appointments, and President Evans
gavel did not fall finally until midnight.
Thus ended legislative day of eighty
six hours in duration, for according to
the minutes of both houses all the work
of the last three days was done before
noon of last Thursday.
For sixty-three days this legislature
has been in session. During that time
it elected a senator, acted on 3s2 bills,
besides resolutions ana memorials, and
cost the state directly in round num-
bers $40, 900.
The Sabbath session was marked
principally by weary waiting for the
engrossment of bills, the reception of
communications from one house to the
other or from the governor, in smoking,
singing songs, making speeches in a
iocular vein, and in the house by COM
BATS with orange peels, paper wads and
books.

will be removed from China the last of
April. The dispatch to General Chat
fee in Pekin is as follows:
I'm reply to your telegram the sec
retary of war directs you to complete
arrangements to sail for Manila with

ficer of the quartermaster's department
to proceed to erect necessary buildings
for the guard according to plans and

his arrival, will make an inspection of
the quartermaster's department of the
Philippine islands until July /. when
he will be assigned to duty as chief

(Signed.) ''CoRBIN."
1t was said at the war department
that this closes up the Chinese ques-
tion SO far as the war department is
concerned, as the protection of the le-
cation can in no sense be taken as oc-
cupation of Chinese territory, and the
guard cannot be used for any other
purpose.

BURLINGTON SYSTEM SOLD.
Northern Pacific and Great Northern sys
TENS Get Control OF the Property.

The Chicago, Burlington & Quincy
railroad has passed practically into
the hands of james j. Hin. Arrange
ments are about completed whereby
the Burlington system is to be leased
to the Great Northern and Northern
Pacific railroad companies, the latter
guaranteeing per cent. dividends ON
all the Burlington stock.
The Morgan and Hartman interests
obtained control of the Burlington
road several weeks ago, and it is with
them that Mr.. Hill has been negotiat-
ing for the lease.
The rapid advance in Burlington
stock during the last two weeks and
the additional jump of six points Sat
urday, made it certain that something
of an extraordinary nature was in the
wind. Few people, however, had any
idea that Mr.. Hill was trying to get
control of the property, and special
stress was laid upon the assertion that
neither Mr.. Hin nor any of his brokers
were buying Burlington stock
