WELL PLEASED
WITH SALT LAKE.
Earl Of Ranfurly Leaves for the
East Delighted With His Short
Stay in This City
HEARS THE TABERNACLE ORGAN
Worried Over an Alleged Interview
With Morning Paper--New
Zealand Prosperous.

After a stopoyer of two days I'm Salt
Lake his lordship, the Earl Of Ranfur-
ly accompanied by Maj, Dudley Alex
ander, his private secretary, and valet,
left for the east at f. 80 today, EN- route
to Virginia, where the distinguished
visitor has friends. Before leaving the
visiting gentlemen were treated TO one
of those superb organ recitals for which
Prof j. ], Mcclellan has become noted,
and later they were escorted to the
state prison, where they were shown
the ms and outs Of prison life in the
Rocky Mountains
There Is no denying the fact that the
Earl of Ranfurly Is a Characteristic
English gentleman Arstocratlc In his
bearing and polite and affable I'm his
treatment of those he meets, he soon
impresses one with the fact that as a
representative Of His Majesty, King
Edward, In the colonies, he cannot but
be of great help In perpetuatlng among
his constituents loyalty TO the mother
country.
When approached by a News re-
porter shortly after the recital, he ex-
pressed his pleasure At having visited
Salt Lake for the first time Il have
been through the states several times,
said his lordship but this Is my first
visit to Utah and Salt Lake. | like your
city very much. To me this intermoun-
tain country is grand, sublime, and
must say that your people arc very
pleasant and agreeable. Our visit here
has been delightful and we shall carry
with us pleasant memories Of our snort
stay IN Salt Lake, From here we go TO
Virginia, where have relatives. Then
we shall go on to New York and sail
for England"
The earl, whose name IN private life
is U. j. NJ. Knox, Is returning to Great
Britain from New Zealand, where he
has been governor for seven years.
During his stay here he has been shown
every attention by Chairman Benz
Goddard of the Church bureau of in
formation. The courtesies extended
he has greatly appreciated and there
appears TO be only one thing that has
worried him, and that is a purported
interview appearing In morning pa
per, which the earl characterized as a
fabrication from start TO finish. Said
he. IL don't deny talking with the fell
low, but | do say that his story Is abb
solutely incorrect" one part OF the
INTERVIEW TO which he seemed to take
especial exception, was the statement
that in two and a half hours he ira
veled close to 800 miles TO catch a
steamer. 1.-THE fact H." said the earl
in explanation, "the distance covered
was about 4i0 miles, and we did 1t in
II hours"
OF New Zealand the earl chats quite
interestingly. He says conditions there
are all that could reasonably be expect
end and that industrially the country Is
prosperous, due largely, of course, 20
municipal ownership Of public utilities,
which is very popular in that country.

Old "Wyuta" Has String of
Accidents to Her Credit in
The West
ALWAYS COT OUT UASCATHED.
Story OF the Ancient Standard Sleeper
That Was in Big Colorado
Horror.

The appalling disaster In Colorado
continued to be the topic in railroad
circles here today, II was universally
conceded that the accident was the
worst In the history Of transportation
in this intermountain region, The opin-
was responsible and that in conse-
quence those who suffered have no
claim on the railroad company. 1T
was clearly an act of Providence said
one old-time railroad nun This morn
Ing 1.-THE train was going at 10 miles an
hour through a binding storm. the en-
gIneer had his train under control and
was on the lookout. You will md that
the courts Will so decide. In my opin-
ion. As In the case Of the Kansas City
foods the railroad viii repudiate all
claims for damages and the courts VIII
sustain IT,"
one feature about the wreck that was
generally remarked upon was that the
old Pullman car Wyuta was In II and
true 10 her record the car and contents
escaped.
The Wyuta wyoming Utah Is one
Of the Oldest standard sleepers In the
service OF the Pullman company and
has been IN more wrecks than any 9TH
er of their cars. She seems to bear
a charmed life and has never been
knocked out Of action. one OF her feats
was on the Chicago & Northwestern a
year or so ago when she was running
through from ogden over the Union
Pacific. In wreck this car cut clean
through Northwestern chair car as
neatly as though II were a huge buzz
saw. After the cars had been pulled
apart II was found that the Wyuta had
sustained smashed yestlbule windows
and sprung platform, otherwise she
was unlnJuredl
The colored porter, Vance, whose he
role net IN acrewng down the brakes
brought the Pullman up standing with
four feet OF her structure over the
chasm, Is well known IN Utah and for
years had the Union Pacific run. He Is
a veteran railroader and has been In
several wrecks.
The Wyuta figured In the great Pull
r1an strike and was laid up at Ogden
where nearly 200 Pullmans were tied up
for 20 days The sleepers were side
tracked IN the yards IN six big strings.
two to an avenue, Each avenue was
known by It's name, taken from the
first car. Tho avenues were called re-
spectlvely Wyuta. North Platte and
Santa Isabel.
The Wyuta is a l0-section, double
drawing room car ~ the old pattern,
Some years ago Il became known as the
lucky car" while several much young
er cars have earned the title OF hoo
DOCS"
In connection with the wreck IL is
feared that j @ Thomas and wife
who arc numbered among the missing,
have lost their lives Mr. Thomas is
well known IN this city and Is general
agent for the Santa Fe at Pueblo.
During the Elk's grand lodge corni-
val here he was In salt Lake and took
an active part In the festivities.

WHAT SULZER AYERS.
N. Y. Congressman Says There is
No Doubt of it Being Democratic.

Congressman VIM. Sulzer, who has
served the state OF New York five times
in the lower house, Is in Salt Lake on
his return from trip to the coast. Be
ing staunch Democrat, Mr.. Sulzer Is
a great admirer OF Judge Parker and
he predicts landslide for him next fall.
II believe II will be another 1892" said
he, at the Knutsford. THE Democracy
never has had greater cause for en-
couragemont. Judge Parker | have
known for many years, and / believe
him to be the most popular man In the
east, New York is assuredly Demo-
cratic. There Is not the slightest doubt
about that state, Republicans In the
east concede that they must win with
out the assistance OF New York"
Mr.. sulzer. while he lives within the
shadow of Wall street is too big an
American to believe the United states
ends at Buffalo. He says he loves the
west and its people, and is a great "be-
lever IN our glorious transMissouri
country" He has proved his friend

casion.
