LOCAL TRADE
CONTINUES FAIR
Salt Lake Benefits in Some Degree
From the Conference.
REAL ESTATE DEALS DUE
MONEY MARKET EASY AND COM
MERClAL STOCKS QUIET.

From a strictly business point Salt
Lake was benefited in a fair degree
during the past week by the semi-an-
nuaI conference of the Mormons, but
the showing was not as great as that
Of last fall 1t is difficult to ascribe
a reason for this, beyond the fact that
the experience OF previous years has
shown that the merchants and retail
dealers of the smaller cities of Utah
and Idaho prefer to do the bulk of their
trade in the fall OF the year
Representatives from many eastern
wholesale houses were in town during
the week, and while some of them
booked satisfa Glory orders for future
delivery. the majority of them said the
condition of local trade appeared to be
rather slack

RAINS FLOOD DRESSING ROOM
Mob at Burbank Theater Almost Put
Out of Business by Over
flow

The heavy storms of last evening
nearly put a stage mob of fifty out of
business at the Burbank theater. All
last night large force of workmeu
was busy pumping out the basement
under the stage in the hope of being
able to offer the extra people a place
TO don their picturesque rags which
form so important a feature of the last
act of "The Judge and the Jury"
The recent rains have been forming q
lake of considerable proportions around
the rear of the Burbank theater build
ing, and last evening the water found a
way into the structure under the stage
quarters for the mob, and when that
aggregation gathered last evening to
prepare themselves for a grand de-.
nuciation of the villain they dlscov-
cred about two feet of water in their
dressing rooms. The dramatic, insis-
tent murmur which this mob uses 81
effectively in the popular drama was re-
produced in real life.
Manager Morosco faced an angry
mob in real life. Miss Blanche Hall, the
leading woman, solved the situation
finally by suggesting that the principals
of the company share their dressing
rooms with the extra people. The hero
ism of this can only be realized by
those who know how jealousy player
guards his dressing room and his prop
erty therein. The sacrifice was made
by all the leading members of the com
pany and into each of the small rooms
eight or ten people made ready for the
footlights.

DISCUSS PROPOSED SURVEY
Residents of the San Gabriel Valley
Argue Subject Before
Supervisors

Two score residents of the San Ga
briel valley appeared before the county
board of supervisors yesterday to dis
cuss the proposed survey of the terri
tory in the neighborhood of the san
Gabriel river for the purpose of fix
ing a definite channel for the river
The scheme is to a certain extent
deemed Impractical BILE by the ranch
ers. Many of them say that the river
should have channel below the
Washburn bridge, but above that point
the property owners differ, half of
them contending that if the dam be
removed from the old fork the upper
section of the valley will be well wa
tered and free from the effects of the
storm overflow.
1t is now a question as to whether
the river can be kept in a channel If
one is provided for it, A decision as
to surveying the property will be
made at the next meeting of the board.

SAYS EXAMINER is LIAR
AND DEVOID OF TRUTH
"Doc" HoUoHToN ATTACKS VEL.
LOW SUPPORTER
Sixth Ward Agtator Resents Story
Printed in the Sensational Sheet.
Power Committee Joke Causes
Row in Council Meeting

1.-THE Examiner Is a liar and the truth
Is not In It,"
After all that the yellow rag has done
to keep doc" Houghton In his seat In
the council and to prevent him hanging
himself with too much rope, after the
promises that 1t has made to him to
support his candidacy for mayor, the
authenticated agitator who repre-
sents the Sixth ward In the city council,
turned on its faithful little follower in
the city council meeting yesterday and
gave 1t this kick.
1t developed, however, that this was
one of the Docs little grandstand
plays to make Councilman Ford show
his hand on the subject of the power
committee, a subject that acts like
hairspring on Houghton.
While the council was on the trip to
the owens river valley an agreement
was reached that a power committee
would be organized and that 1t would
be recommended that Houghton be
made chairman. On the return of the
council to this city 1t was announced
that the power committee was a joke
and was formulated for the purpose Of
keeping Houghton quiet while on the
trip.
AT the meeting of the council held a
week ago yesterday Houghton made an
effort to have the committee formed
and said disagreeable things because
the others failed to ''come through" ;"
Councilman Ford was not at that meet
ing, as he did not return from San
Francisco until last Friday. On his re-
turn the Examiner quoted him to the
effect that he did not remember any,
thing about Houghton being made
chairman of a power committee.
1t was this interview to which
Houghton referred when he called the
Examiner a liar
This started Houghton on the subject
of the power committee, and brought
Councilman Kern to his feet on a point
of order. When Kern's point of order
had been acknowledged and Houghton
ordered to take his seat Kern said
across the table to the disturber:
"Wait until we hear report from
the committee that made the Owens
river investigation and then l person.
ally will move that the power COM
mittee be appointed"
There's no doubt that we should
have the power committee" said
Councilman Ford in discussing Hough-
toms grandstand play, but l don't re-
member anything about nominating
Houghton as chairman of that COM
mittee. That power belongs to the
president of the council and we can do
nothing but recommend at the best.
Besides, it is too early to consider it
yet. We have money to purchase lands
in the owens river valley, but not one
cent to build the conduit or develop
the power / think we should at least
consult with the water department and
find out what they want done before
taking any action to develop the
power"

SOCIETY YOUTHS
STEAL TROLLEY
ELECTRIC DERELlCT FOUND
IN HOLLYWOOD
Railroad Officials and County Con-
stabulary MystIfled by Weird Mid
night Theft Of Car-Seareh
for ReveIers

Has car stealing become a popular
fad for the young society men of Los
Angeles and Hollywood to indulge in,
during leisure hours when their at
tendance at some other social function
is not required is the question which
is keeping deputy constables of Los
Angeles township courts guessing.
Twice during the past month cars
have been taken from sheds and
paraded through the country and
then abandoned on the tracks.
The latest theft occurred one week
ago last Sunday and deputy constables
who have been working on the case
declare that the unique criminals may
be in the township courts before many
days have passed.
The first car was stolen about three
weeks ago, but was easily traced and
was found in good condition. In the
case of the second car it was different,
and the officers of the Los Angeles
Pacific Railroad company are looking
around for some one to charge with the
crime.
According to the story told by the
deputies, the car was taken to the car
barns on Bellevue avenue the morning
of the robbery about l o'clock There
it was thoroughly cleaned and neatly
tucked away and the crew left.
Next morning the car was nowhere
to be found but a search resulted in
the location of the derelict in one OF
the suburban avenues of Hollywood.
A report was made at once to the
headquarters of the road and a special
crew was sent out to take charge OF
the lost car, but 1t required the SER
vices of seIeral men to get the car il
shape for running. The fuse was
lNtI trht 10 s.,N.
car was defaced and beer and whisky
bottles were strewn around promiscu-
ously.
The deputies, after careful investi-
cation, state they are satisfied that
a party of young society boys with al
eye for adventure managed to sneak
the car out of the barns and hold forth
in royal manner after the wilderness
of the Hollywood hills had beer
reached.
The officials say it will go hard with
the midnight revelers If they are ar
rested.
