Ogden Gateway

Salt Lake City, Nov 30--A rate
cutting which may lead to a lively
war between Hartman and Gould
has been started in Utah and Wyom-
ing. The trouble is over coal. Sew
eral weeks ago a conference was held
in Denver between representatives of
Hartman Union Pacific Coal com
pany aud Gould's Utah Fuel com
pany, at which it WAS agreed that the
price of Goa! should be raised. Nb
time was specified, it being understood
this should be settled later.
Last week, without warming, the
Union Pacific Coal company jumped
the price 80 cent ton. The Utah
Fuel company, with strike on its
hands. was loath to follow but did so.
Two days ago. while Hartman was
in Utah. representatives of the Com
mercial club of Salt Lake waited on
him and persuaded him the price was
too high. He promptly, without
consulting the Gould representatives.
ordered 30-cent cut ON the price of
coal. This angered the Gould men
because they were given no chance to
reduce at the same time, and Harri
man was given chance to get public
sentiment.
After wiring George Gould as to the
situation, they announced last night
"A cut of 20 cents on coal and % cents
on the freight rate from the mines.

A Historic Telegram.

The Hon. Charles Foster former Sec
retary Of the Treasury and former
Governor OF Ohio, was visitor at the
capital. and told a heretofore unpub-
lished story of the Minneapolis conven-
ton OF 1892, that renominated Benja-
min Harrison for the Presidency. and
Of the late President McKinley's part
In that convention.
Mr.. Foster. with other members OF
General Harrison's Cabinet. was at the
White House receiving returns from
the convention. He naturally was anx-
ious that Ohio should cast her votes
in the convention for Harrison. and
was much concerned when "a tele-
gram came announcing that Ohio
casts one vote for Harrison and forty
FIVE for Mckinley. who was Chairman
OF the Ohio delegation:
Please send me name Of Ohio dele

The answer soon came back, signed
by Mckinley himself:

General Harrison was William McKin-
ley. Jr."-Washington Post.

called polyps. They are small, jelly
like substances, some OF which are 10
larger than the head OF pin.
Tie little coral polyps fasten them
selves 10 a rock or something in the
sea. and never move away from the
place where they are born. They are
always moving their little tentacles 10
and fro. so as 10 get food; and from
the food they eat and the salt water
they swallow lime is formed which
passes through them and makes their
skeleton.
When one little polyp settles itself,
others fasten themselves 10 the first
one. and so. after a long time, they
reach the surface. When they die the
sea washes away the soft substances
and the skeletons remain. which We
call coral Sometimes the polyps fasten
themselves around an island and then
the land sinks. leaving q circle OF coral.
This is called an atoll and the water
inside a lagoon. The coral reefs are

cation.
There are different kinds OF coral.
and also many different colors. The
branching coral is so called because il
resembles tree with its many
branches. The brain coral gets its
name because il looks SO much like a
mans brain.
Coral sometimes forms islands. and
the sea washes twigs. sand and other
material TO them. and these settle in
the cracks and crevices of the coral.
Then cocoanuts and other seeds float
there. and many of them take root and
grow; while birds and wild animals
find their way there in some mysterious
manner. and after many. many years
it becomes n beautiful tropical island
