Hutton. who was removed from the
office of police commissioner by Mayor
Schmitz yesterday, on the ground of
strongly denies the charges
against him. He declares that irregu-
larities in his private life, even if true.
which he does not admit, have nothing
to do with his official standing. He
saws that. although out Of touch with
the mayor. he has been in a position
to obtain much information which ne
has communicated to the grand jury.
For several hours today he was in con-
ference with the police committee OF
that body. and it is asserted detailed
many facts in connection with the
liquor. .gamb bling and disreputable in
terests which he said were behind his
removal from office. He is asserted to
have given many names and dates re

authority whose conduct he is anxious
to have investigated
1t is alleged that Hutton told the
grand Jurors that during his three
years on the police board he could have
enriched himself by over 100000 if he
had chosen to profit by the opportuni-
ties of graft offered him. He said he
had received a direct offer to act as at
torney for the owners of nickel-in-the-
slot machines for fee of $1,000 a month
to insure them against trouble with the

test in RiVerton with Postoffice
Robbers.

Burglars robbed the Riverton post
Office early this morning and were pre-
vented from rObbing the store of Seth

of two young men who slept in tue
place. About O'Clock the young men
were awakened by the noise Of a door
being broken in. They waited in silence
When the burglars, masked and armed
appeared. one of the boys, Heber

ger but the weapon failed to explode.

the other. referring TO a weapon that
existed only in his ina gination. This
alarmed the burglars and they ran

JUSTICES DON'T AGREE
Minority Claims Failure to File Ar
tieles Of Incorporation Does
Not Release Debtor.

Justice McCarty of the state supreme
court has handed down a dissenting opin-
ION in the case of A. Booth & Co VS..
O. NJ. Wiegdnd. appellant In an opinion
by the other justices of the court handed
down on Dec. 81 il was held that A
Booth Co, plaintiff in the lower court
could not recover from Wiegand. defend
ant in the lower court, for merchandise
sold TO him. because a Booth & Co. had
not complied with the law of Utah re-
quiring the filing Of copy of its articles
of Incorporation in the office of the sec
rotary of state of Utah.
IL is contended by Justice McCarty that
failure of the appellee to comply with the
law in regard to the filing of it's articles
of incorporation does not and should not
act as a bar TO the collection by it within
the state of Utah of debts due git from
persons residing in Utah. In support
OF his opinion Justice McCarty quotes
section ), article u of the constitution OF
Utah, which says that 'all corporations
shall have the right TO sue and shall be
subject to be sued in all courts in like
cases as natural persons. He contends
that this section is mandatory and is not
qualified by section of the same article
OF the constitution, which REQUIRES the
filing of copy of articles of incorporation
with the secretary of state.

TRAFFIC RESUMED.
New York Recovering From the Ef-
fects of the Storm.

New York. Jan. 26.-New York to-
Eight is recovering from the effects
OF yesterdays storm. which so effectu-
ally put a stop to traffic and tied up
some lines of business. Although the
day was bitter cold, 10 900 men were
sent out TO remove the snow from
the leading thOroughfares. and, aided
BY the men on the surface car roads,
many avenues of travel are now open.
Cars are running on many of the prin-
clpal lines, the railroads are sending
cut trains, ferry boats are running on
schedule. and milk coal and food sup
plies have begun to reach the city.
over $50 Shovelers were treated at hos
pitfalls below Fourteenth street for frost
bites, and scores of others were at
tended at uptown institutions and by
physicians. owing to the difficulty in
reaching downtown offices. but little
business was transacted during the day
and places Of amusement We're scantily
attended tonight.
Suburban traffic gradually resumed
FORMAL conditions late in the day, but
through trains on most roads were
hours-Iate.
The embargo on shipping was lifted
with the advent of clear weather and
the large fleet of delayed liners reached
port, ice covered. All report tempest
uOus voyages and much suffering
among their crews. The steam lighter
Clarence, which left Bayonne, n. J.,
for Brooklyn yesterday with seven men
aboard. has not been heard from. A
vessel is reported sunk off Robbins
reef and it is feared il may be the
Clarence.
The fremen of New York suffered Sc
verely from the effects of the storm.
They responded to twenty-nine alarms.
and by the orders of the commissioners
we're denied their usual time off duty.
The cold weather which has been gen.
eral along the Atlantic coast appears
10 be giving away.

dcmned i'm thirty-fCur of the buildings

iHg permits over the number issued in

the proposition TO extend sewer

not done he suggests that they be
