BRYAN ON SENATORIAL
FIGHT IN NEBRASKA

Chicago, March w. J. Bryan
passed through Chicago today on his
way to Buffalo. N Y Between trains
Mr.. Bryan received a number of calls
from Democratic politicians. Mr.. Bryan
was not disposed to discuss general po-
litical matters. but departed from this
rule to some extent when asked re-
garding the probable outcome of the
senatorial fight in Nebraska.
The trouble seems u be- he said,
shat there are not enough senatorial
positions to go around among the rail-
roads. 1t is possible that they may be
able to reach some compromise through

the situation seems to be rather COM

CUBANS MAY PROTEST.
Constitutional Convention Discusses
Action of Congress

Havana, March THE Cuban COnsti-
tutiOnaI convention met in secret session
this afternoon for a formal discussion of
the Platt amendment. The conservative
element scored a victory. 1t was decided
to continue the sessions of the cOnvesl-
ton and to refer the amendment to the
special commit zee on relations with IN
StructiOnS TO bring in a report.
General Sanguily favored dissolving the
convention and returning the amendment
" thOut discussion. The other delegates
were unanimously in favor of continuing
the sessions and OF sending some answer
to the executive department in Washing
ton
1t is generally believed that the crisis.
If any existed, has passed, and by the
time the committee reports The present
excitement will have died out. Much de-
Ponds upon the attitude OF the radical
delegates. If impassioned appeal to
the people is issued. as is rumOred win
be the case, this viii cause demonstra-
tons of protest against the United States.
But nothing in the nature of an uprising
is any longer feared.

BURIAL OF SOLDIER.
First Case Under the New State
Law.

First Case Under the New State
Law.
Probably the first case to come un-
der the new law requiring boards of
county commissioners to provide for
the suitable burial of houorably dis
charged veteran soldiers and sailors,
when the kindred of such deceased re-
quest it, is that of Prince A. Steed,
whose funeral from the Methodist
church occurred in this city on Feb.
a. Steed was formerly a sergeant in
the Twenty infantry, and dur
ing the Spanish war was on recruiting
service, but afterward returned with
the negro regiment to the garrison at
Port Douglas. His grave is in Mt.
Olivet cemetery and if the new law is
invoked 10 his memory the place where
his body repOses will be marked by
monument to be erected at public eX-
Dense.
Yesterday the widow of Sergeant
Steed made application, through w. w.
Taylor to the county commissioners
for the allotted sum of 500, of which
$40 is applicable 10 his burial and $50
for a monument. The commissioners
have the matter under Amusement, but
will probably take favorable action, as
the law directs, at their next meeting.

ELIMINATION OF
STRANGE ROMANCE
Colorado Millionaire to Wed
Beautiful HeiresS.
MET IN SALT LAKE
MRS. DAILEY'S ENGAGEMENT TO
COLONEL COOMBS.
let IN SALT LAKE

Ere many moons, perhaps in a few
days, Colonel w. II. Coombs. one of
the millionaire mining men of Colo
RADIO, and Mrs. Sarah A. Daley, her
self heiress to over q million, and now
at the KnutsfOrd, are to be married.
Mrs Daley is on her way from San
Francisco TO Denver. She was met
here yesterday by Colonel CoOmbs.
The two had considered being married
in Salt Lake, but the ceremony will
probably be performed in Denver. The
exact date has not been set.
The wedding will bring to a culmin-
alton romance dating back to the
time when Mrs. Daley was a mere
child at the New York home of her
father, the wealthy Judge A. Roberts
of New York. Fate was not ready
then for their hearts to be joined, how
ever. and the beautiful Sarah Roberts,
when still a young girl, married Mr..
Daley, and in the course of her mar
ried lie came to the west to live. She
was a resident of Denver, Salt Lake
and of san Francisco during the years
that followed. Her husband died alter
she had nursed him during a long ill
ness.
Mrs. Daley was and is still young
and beautiful, and the goSsips have

At one time it was rumored that she
was to marry Charles Croker of the
famous California family, and other
stories were set afloat, only to be de-
MED. But all this time that Dame Ru-
NOR was busy, the old friend of her
girlhOod had the place o. honor in her
heart. He was living in Denver, and
mis- deals in Leadville, Cripple Creek
and other mining camps had been
doubling and trebling his fortune. AL

nounced it. Colonel Coombs and Mrs.
Daley have been engaged tor two
years.
Mrs. Daley travelled extensively.
She went to Europe, visited the Paris
exposition, remained some time in San
ttons of the local society, and was
about to join her parents, now on a
Haw' ttan tour, when she exercised 4.
woman's prerogative of changing her
mind, and started in the opposite di-
rectiOn. a
Before she left San Francisco She
unwittingly saved her own maid from
death as a result of the Rio de oaneirO
disaster. Her mother in Honolulu had
promised to send her a maid. The maid
took the Inflated steamer. After the
sinking of the vessel Mrs Daley and
a party of friends were in a launch
visiting the scene, when they picked up
a woman clinging to driftwood. After
the woman had been rescued it turned
out 20 be her own maid.
Mrs. Daley arrived in Salt Lake last
Saturday and has been remaining quiz
city at the Knutsford. Colonel Coombs
arrived yesterday, having been delayed
in his intention of meeting her here
and escorting her to Denver. The
two viii start for Denver soon.
Mrs. Daley will be given a hand
some dowry by her father, who is a
warm friend of Colonel Coombs Both
have a MURDER OF friends in Salt Lake
City, who are delighted over the pros
pective marriage, which is character
lied as ideal"

STATUS OF FRANCHISE.
Rapid Transit Claims Right to Use
Seventh East.

Attorneys for the Salt Lake City
Railroad company and the Rapid Tran
sit company are searching the records
in the county clerks office to learn the
status of the franchise granted the lat
ter company to construct a car line
on Seventh East street north of the
Cannon corner in Forest Dale to Elev
enth South. Attorney Critchlow for the
Salt Lake cimpany has learned enough
to justify him in saying that the fran
chise is forfeitable, if not actually for
feited because of non-use, but AttOr-
ney Baldwin for the Rapid Transit
company is as positive that his client
has until Jan. l. 1908. to use the fran
chise. The final decision may AVE an
important bearing upon the granting
of the franchise to the Rapid Transit
company to occupy Eleventh South
with its projected line to State street,
and also the petition of the Salt Lake
company for a franchise to invade the
southeast section, whose residents are
demanding better transit facilities. 1t
is not at all improbable that the ques-
ton may have to be determined by the
courts.
