OBTAINING, viewed the body but said
he could not identify it absolutely.
Only a preliminary session was
held. After the body was identified
the inquest was continued until Thurs
day morning at 10 o'clock at the Fiji
tieth street police station. While the
solemn service and the rigid investiga-
ton were progressing, the hunt for
William Bartholin was going steadily
on but SO far without avail.
Developments of yesterday indicat-
e3 that Bartholin may have made a
careful survey of the field where Min
ME Mitchell's body and clothing were
found. William Waldrop told the po-
lice that on Wednesday, July 80, he
met William Bartholin at 74th and
State streets within few feet of the
SPOT where the dead body of the girl
was found. Waldrop talked with
Bartholin. The last he saw of him
was when he boarded a northbound
State street car 1t is supposed the
murder of Minnie Mitchell took place
the same night. Bartholin's presence
at the field where the body was found
later gives color to the theory that
the murder was planned in cold
blood.
May be in Oklahoma.
Guthrie, o. T., Aug. 12.-There was
much telegraphing last night between
Guthrie and Chicago by Chicago au-
thorities trying to locate William J.
Bartholin, who they believe came to
Guthrie to join Harry Church, for
mer boarder at the Bartholin home in
Chicago. If the men are here they
are using assumed names, but the
local police are exerting every effort

There was some talk this summer to the
effect that the increase ID the bar room tax

PROF. JoHNsoN's THEME.
Discusses Exchange and Nature and
Uses Of Credit.

THE Nature and Uses of Credit" was the
subject of Prof Joseph French Johnson's
Thursday afternoon lecture before the
school Of comparative Jurisprudence and
diplomacy Of the Columbia University.
When CT edit is considered as a medium of
exchange he said. the most satisfactory
definition Is "a promise to pay money Its
acceptability Is based upon confidence in
the Will and ability Of the borrower TO
pay. 1t Is important to note that there
are two distinct classes OF credit in use
as media of exchange, the one having I'M
limited acceptabilAty, such bank notes,
greenbacks and silver dollars, which are
called credit money; the other having only
limited acceptability, such as checks, drafts,
promissory notes and bills of exchange.
bank Is dealer IN credit. Its profits are
made by the purchase and sale OF credit in
struments.
1.-The so-called deposits of banks may be
divided into two classes: Those resulting
from the deposit Of money or a check or
draft payable on demand. and secondly.
those resulting from loan and discount
transa ctions. The first may be properly
designated cash deposits. the second as
credit deposits. Notwithstanding these dis
tinctions, all deposits are essentially alike.
for they are all promises to pay money to
depositors. The cash deposits represent
wealth already produced The credit de-
posits represent wealth in the course OF
production"
In his lecture Friday afternoon Prof.
johnson discussed the fundamental prfn-
ciples OF domestic and foreign exchange.
1.-The flow of money and credit" he said.
between the communities within coun-
try is governed by the same principles that
regulate their movement between different
countries. The movements of currency
within the United States are governed by
prices and the rate of interest, and In the
long run, the value Of goods which one
section imports or buys from another Is
equaled by the value OF the goods which
II sells or exports. In the United States.
because Of the Importance OF New York
as commercial center. New York ex-
change. by which Is meant drafts upon
New York banks Is everywhere acceptable
among business men as a means OF pay
ment. London, or sterling. exchange has a
similar acceptability in the worlds COM
merce, for Londons commerce reaches
into every land. The foreign trade of a
country Is limited by its power to absorb
the products Of other countries There IS
a popular impression that the exports OF
the United States can be Indefinitely In
creased by improvements In manufacturing
processes. This Is an error, for in the bong
run our exports must be balanced by our
imports. The so-called balance of trade
which Is commonly viewed as the cause OF
gold exports Is itself the product Of the
necessity for gold exports. Gold Is never
sent abroad as payment Of international
balance unless the country has surprise"

SPECIAL APPEAL ISSUED.
Funds Needed by the Citizens Relief
Association

Tne finance committee OF the Citizens Re-
lief Association has issued a special appeaI
for funds, signed by Mr. James E. Fitch.
chairman. in which 1t is stated that for the
noble contributions received in answer to
the earnest appeals of the daily press the
relief committee is most sincerely thankful.
1T Is desirable, however" MIR. Fitch con-
tinues, that the public should know that
money Is required not only for the purchase
OF coaa and wood. but for provisions and
clothing to relieve the necessities of the
worthy poor during the coming winter. To
meet this demand from $4,000 to s12-
600 will be required, and 1t is sincerely
hoped by the finance committee of the asso-
citation that the whole amount NAV now he
raised. rendering unnecessary any further
appeals through the press or a house-to-
house visitation"

DEPARTMENT OF MINms.

w HIL.E THE DEPARTMENT of
commerce which Senator Nelson
or Minnesota proposes to esta bIish.
may be a very excellent feature Of the
government, il is no more necessary
than department of mines. The prop
osition to place a bureau of mines I'M
der the supervision Of the department
of commerce is by no means satisfac-
tory. The mining industry of the
United States. as was admitted on the
floor cf the senate during the debate
on the Nelson bill, is as important as
agriculture e-
In its bearing on the general well
fare and prosperity Of the country it is
as powerful for good as any of the
other state departments. For years
western congressman have been at
tempting to convince their colleagues
OF this fact. For years they have been
piling M statistics which show that.
in proportion to population. the prod
ucts Of the mining states are of far
greater commercial value than the
products of any other states in the
Union.
The reason for previous failures to
recognize the necessity for a depart
nent OF mines lies in the fact that rep
resentatives of the mineral bearing
states have not been able to overcome
the prejudices Of eastern members
against everything western. Now a
broader spirit is being shown. Con-
gressmen travel more than they for
merry did. They are approaching more
and more the fact tsat each represents
the entire nation. not a single bailiwick
comprising a few counties. Neither
does the demand for a department Of
mines come now from the west alone.
Other products of the earth's depths
5eaides the precious metals are de-
handing recognition. There are the
copper mines of the Lake Superior dis
.rict, the great coal mines of Pennsyl-
vania. the zinc mines of Missouri. This
ls-nOt a sectional issue at all. IT. is a.
meeting ground big enough for all the
congressman to stand upon and they
should not be slow in arriving at an
Affirmative conclusion.

SOME COUNCIL RULES.

THE UTTER and absurd iFrelevanry
1 of the rules adopted by the coun
ell Monday night is SO obvious that
one is moved to wonder that even the
council didn't recognize it The Her
aid doesn't care to indulge in any
carping CRITICISM but ventures to sug-
gest a few really pertinent rules which
should govern the proceedings Of the
lawmakers during the next two years.
If they are adopted and followed, the
city may be sure OF some really digni-
fed sessions. Here are some rules
whose relevancy will be readily appar-
ent:
1. Should any councilman, after be-
ing knocked down, still insist that his
point was well taken, it viii be proper
10 kick him in the ribs.
?. Unless otherwise specified in the
articles OF disagreement, President
Cottrell shall be the official referee.
3. Except in the case OF Mr.. Robert
son. it will be unparliamentary for any
councilman to throw a book at the
president in order to secure recogni-
ton
4. Sponges will be furnished by the
janitor with which to wipe up the
blood. Gentlemen desiring to bleed in
buckets may secure same on applica-
ton to the chairman of the committee
on physical culture, herein provided
for.
>. All bills for court plaster, arnica,
raw beef and st. Ezra's oil shall be
considered as allowed without refer
ence to the auditor or the finance com
mittee.
8. AS there are not enough bolos to
go around. the use of said implement is
barred, Battle axes, broadswords, cut
Iasses and firearms. when not in use,
must be checked in the cloak room.
Z. The court language of this couns
ell is hereby designated as nonpareil.
Mr.. Daveler is hereby notified that any
attempt to talk iii plea, as is his or
binary custom, will be. considered an
invitation for every other member to
punch him.
s. No council meeting shall be de-
clafed OIucldlly ADJOURNED until al least
two members have called a like num-
Der Of members liars.
9. Until otherwise ordered Mr.. Thorn
as shall be allowed to hit twice to Mr..
Daveler's once. other handicaps will
be announced as the exigencies de-
mand.
10. During sessions of this council
every physician and surgeon in Salt
Lake shall hold himself in readiness
for instant response to a riot call.
For starter. The Herald believes
the above rules would about fit the
case. Of course others will suggest
themselves as the administration
grows older, but the wise men in the
council Will undoubtedly rise to the
emergency.
