SHOT TO DEATH IN PRISON.

As was stated in the Gazette, Peter
Mortensen, the slayer of james r. Hay,
was shot to death in the State peniten-
tiary yard at Salt Lake City, Utah, at
1890 o clock yesterday morning. Main
tanning his innocence to the last, he
walked firmly to the chair placed against
the heavy stone wall of the prison yard
and bade the guards and deputy sheriiis
good-by with no tremor in his voice.
Mortensen was killed instantly, four
bullets from the rifles of the executing
squad, which was concealed behind a
thick curtain in the door Of black
smith shop, y yards distant, piercing
the white target pinned over his heart.
The condemned man refused TO see
ministers, either of his own belief (the
Mormou) or of any other denomination,
and also refused stimulants saying that
he needed neither.
Mortensen was shot to death for
the murder of James r. Hay on the
night of December l6, 1901. The
day following the crime a report
was circulated that Hay, who was
secretary of the Pacific Lumber
Company, had absconded, taking with
him SO, 800 collected from Mortensen on
a bill due to the company. Mortensen
was Indebted to the company for material
in his contracting business and had been
urged to make a payment. December 10
ne called at the Office of the company,
said he had the money in gold concealed
in his cellar and asked Hay TO come
around that night and get it. The men
we're neghbOrs Hay left his home short
ly after dinner that night, stating he was
going to MOrtensen's to collect some
money. That was the last seen of him
alive. On December Is Hays body
was found buried in a shallow grave in
the middle of pasture not far from Nor
tensen's home. A bullet hold through
the head showed the manner Of death.
Mortensen was Immediately arrested.
Soon afterward Mrs. Mortcnsen left Salt
Lake with her children without calling on
her husband to say goodby. The laws Of
Utah do not permita wife to testify against
her husband, butitwas learned that Mrs.
Mortensen considered him guilty Of
the murder because of the fact that he had
gone out with Hay that night and re-
mained over an hour. When he return
ed he was ghastly pale and cautioned his
wife not to tell any one he had left the
house. Z strong chain Of circumstan-
tial evidence was woven around Nor
tensen at the trial and he was pronouuc-
cd guilty on the first ballot Of the jury.
A sensational incident of the trial was
the testimony of James Sharp, Hay 5
father-in-law, who stated that he knew
on the night before the body was diScoy-
cred that Hay had been murdered by
Mortensen, because "GOd had revealed
it to him." This so-called revelation"
testimony was made the basis Of an ap-
peal to the Supreme Court for a new
trial, which, however, was denied, the
Jurors stating that this had not Influenced
their decision in any way. The choice
of death by shooting or hanging is given
condemned men in Utah, and Mortensen
chose to meet his death by the bullets OF
prison guards

ENDING OF STRIKE.

Only two points prevented apeaceable
adjustment of the Chicago City Railroad
strike Yesterday, and the indications are
that these obstacles will be finally over
come and that a settlement will be reach
ed today. Mayor Carter II. Harrison
and his aldermanic peace commission,
after laboring for three days, succeeded
Yesterday in getting Col. L. r. Bliss,
general counsel for the City Railroad,
and Clarence S. Darrow, counsel for the
street car mems union, into conference
in the office of Colonel Bliss, where they
discussed basis of settlement. The re-
suit of the conference will be submitted
to the directors of the road this morn
ing for final action. The company made
these two proposals to the union:
First-That the company shall have
the right to discipline and discharge its
employees as it shall choose, but this
shall not be construed to mean that any
discrimination is made against union
men or nOn-uniOn men.
Second-That the company shall
formulate the methods by which griev-
ances of its employees shall be adjusted
in the future.
The understanding is that the COM
pany has laid down these proposals as
the basic principles which must be grant
ed by the union before further negotia-
tions could be entered on. Mr.. Dar
row submitted the company's proposal
to the union, after which he said that
the strikers had accepted the proposal:
of the company with immaterial modid-
cations. Four of the company's trunk
lines were kept open for iicyesterdayr
the cars being run under police protoc
ton. No attempt has been made t'
operate cars at night.
